3. Derived Works
The license must allow modifications and derived works, and must allow them
to be distributed under the same terms as the license of the original software.
4. Integrity of The Author's Source Code
The license may restrict source code from being distributed in modified form
only if the license allows the distribution of  patch files  with the source
code for the purpose of modifying the program at build time. The license
must explicitly permit distribution of software built from modified source code.
The license may require derived works to carry a different name or version
number from the original software. (This is a compromise. The Debian group
encourages all authors to not restrict any files, source or binary, from being
modified.)
5. No Discrimination Against Persons or Groups
The license must not discriminate against any person or group of persons.
6. No Discrimination Against Fields of Endeavor
The license must not restrict anyone from making use of the program in a
specific field of endeavor. For example, it may not restrict the program from
being used in a business, or from being used for genetic research.
7. Distribution of License
The rights attached to the program must apply to all to whom the program is
redistributed without the need for execution of an additional license by those
parties.
8. License Must Not Be Specific to Debian
The rights attached to the program must not depend on the program's being
part of a Debian system. If the program is extracted from Debian and used or
distributed without Debian but otherwise within the terms of the program's
