STWL 1.0, revision 3

[Bernhard Fastenrath]

I'm sorry, it should have read:

     "5. If you are owner of software patents you agree to refrain from
any legal action based on infringement of your claims derived from said 
patents against users of open source software and concerning open source 
software as defined by the Open Source Initiative (OSI). Failing to 
comply voids this license for the validity period of said software patent."
