Under section 8 of the GNU General Public License, the copyright |
|
|
holders of XVID explicitly forbid distribution in the following |

|
countries: |
|
|
|
|
|
- Japan |
|
|
- United States of America |
|
|
|
|
|
Linking XviD statically or dynamically with other modules is making a |
|
|
combined work based on XviD. Thus, the terms and conditions of the |
|
|
GNU General Public License cover the whole combination. |
|
|
|
|
|
As a special exception, the copyright holders of XviD give you |
|
|
permission to link XviD with independent modules that communicate with |
|
|
XviD solely through the VFW1.1 and DShow interfaces, regardless of the |
|
|
license terms of these independent modules, and to copy and distribute |
|
|
the resulting combined work under terms of your choice, provided that |
|
|
every copy of the combined work is accompanied by a complete copy of |
|
|
the source code of XviD (the version of XviD used to produce the |
|
|
combined work), being distributed under the terms of the GNU General |
|
|
Public License plus this exception. An independent module is a module |
|
|
which is not derived from or based on XviD. |
|
|
|
|
|
Note that people who make modified versions of XviD are not obligated |
|
|
to grant this special exception for their modified versions; it is |
|
|
their choice whether to do so. The GNU General Public License gives |
|
|
permission to release a modified version without this exception; this |
|
|
exception also makes it possible to release a modified version which |
|
|
carries forward this exception. |
