LICENSE AGREEMENT
openSUSE® 12.3

Note to translators: Please replace $LANGUAGE with your own language.

This is an unofficial translation of the openSUSE 12.3 license into 
$LANGUAGE. It does not legally state the distribution terms for openSUSE 
12.3 - only the original English text of the openSUSE #VERSION#
license does that. However, we hope that this translation will help
$LANGUAGE speakers understand the license better.

This agreement governs your download, installation, or use
of openSUSE 12.3 and its updates, regardless of the delivery
mechanism. openSUSE 12.3 is a collective work under US Copyright
Law. Subject to the following terms, The openSUSE Project grants to
you a license to this collective work pursuant to the GNU General
Public License version 2. By downloading, installing, or using
openSUSE 12.3, you agree to the terms of this agreement.

openSUSE 12.3 is a modular Linux operating system consisting of
hundreds of software components. The license agreement for each
component is generally located in the component's source code. With
the exception of certain files containing the “openSUSE”
trademark discussed below, the license terms for the components
permit you to copy and redistribute the component. With the
potential exception of certain firmware files, the license terms
for the components permit you to copy, modify, and redistribute the
component, in both source code and binary code forms. This agreement
does not limit your rights under, or grant you rights that supersede,
the license terms of any particular component.

code, documentation, appearance, structure, and organization, are

“openSUSE” trademark on the condition that you follow The openSUSE

Except as specifically stated in this agreement or a license for
a particular component, TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED UNDER
APPLICABLE LAW, OPENSUSE 12.3 AND THE COMPONENTS ARE PROVIDED
AND LICENSED "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESSED OR
IMPLIED, INCLUDING THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, TITLE,
NON-INFRINGEMENT, OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. The openSUSE

THE OPENSUSE PROJECT’S (AND ITS LICENSORS’, SUBSIDIARIES’, AND
EMPLOYEES’) AGGREGATE LIABILITY IS LIMITED TO $50US, OR IF SUCH A
LIMITATION IS NOT ALLOWED, IS LIMITED TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT ALLOWED.

of the US, without regard to any conflict of laws provisions,
except that the United Nations Convention on the International
Sale of Goods will not apply. This agreement sets forth the entire
