<div><font><div>Dear Pamela,</div><div><br></div><div>I hope you are doing well.</div><div><br></div><div>Following your suggestions, we have engaged a specialized translation agency to thoroughly review the English translation of the Mulan Public License v2. The revised translation is attached for your review. Should you and the other reviewers have any additional questions or suggestions regarding the English translation, please do not hesitate to share them. We greatly appreciate your contributions to achieving a more accurate English version of the Mulan Public License.</div><div><br></div><div>Based on the revised translation, I believe the patent licensing terms are now clearer. Article 2 of the agreement stipulates that the patent license applies only to the claims owned or controlled by the contributor which will be infringed by its contribution alone, and does not extend to claims which will not be infringed by the contribution itself but will be infringed after modifications made by the user to the contribution.</div><div><br></div><div>Furthermore, regarding the copyright license, I would like to clarify that the issues you identified are also present in the Chinese version and are not solely a result of the English translation. Your concerns are valid; copyright in both the United States and China encompasses the right to publicly display and perform the work. The approach you suggested (granting a license to all copyright rights without enumerating them) indeed represents the best practice at present. However, for the reasons outlined below, we believe that maintaining the current copyright licensing terms is a better choice for the Mulan Public License.</div><div><br></div><div>Firstly, the current licensing terms are considered to carry minimal risk concerning withholding some rights. License to reproduce, use, modify, or distribute is framed from the user perspective in utilizing open-source software, covering various user operations on the software. Additionally, the public display or performance you mentioned can be interpreted as encompassed within either use or distribution—for instance, displaying a segment of open-source code at an event can be viewed as both use and distribution. Furthermore, several other open-source licenses employ same language, such as the ISC License and Mulan Permissive Software License v2. Importantly, to date, none of the licensors or licensees using licenses with identical terms, including the Mulan Public License, has raised concerns regarding incomplete licenses.</div><div><br></div><div>Secondly, considering the current status of the Mulan Public License, modifying the copyright licensing terms to appear more legally sound could potentially spark new friction, negating the benefit of such improvements. The Mulan Permissive Software License v2, which belongs to the same Mulan family of licenses and was certified by OSI in 2020, adopts the same copyright licensing terms. The Mulan Permissive and Mulan Public Licenses were collaboratively drafted by the same group and released in succession, with highly similar language tailored to meet the needs of Chinese developers for Apache-2.0 and AGPL-3.0 style licenses, respectively. Altering the copyright licensing terms of the Mulan Public License to differ from those of the Mulan Permissive may lead to significant confusion among users of the Mulan family of licenses. Additionally, the Mulan Public License has already been adopted by a lot of projects, and publishing Version 3 to merely revise the copyright licensing terms could create discrepancies in understanding the differences between Versions 2 and 3, because, as mentioned, the current Version 2 of the Mulan Public License already provides users all the necessary copyright license.</div><div><br></div><div>Above are our reflections on the matter. We welcome your insights and those of the other reviewers. Thank you for your attention and collaboration. Have a nice weekend ahead.</div><div><br></div><div>Best,</div><div>Nadia Jiang</div></font></div><div><includetail><div> </div><div> </div><div style="font:Verdana normal 14px;color:#000;"><div style="FONT-SIZE: 12px;FONT-FAMILY: Arial Narrow;padding:2px 0 2px 0;">------------------ Original ------------------</div><div style="FONT-SIZE: 12px;background:#efefef;padding:8px;"><div id="menu_sender"><b>From: </b> "Pamela Chestek"<pamela.chestek@opensource.org>;</div><div><b>Date: </b> Mon, Jan 20, 2025 09:54 AM</div><div><b>To: </b> "license-review"<license-review@lists.opensource.org>; <wbr></div><div></div><div><b>Subject: </b> Re: [License-review] Submission for review of Mulan Public License,Version 2</div></div><div> </div><div style="position:relative;"><div id="tmpcontent_res"></div>

    <p>Dear Minghui,</p>
    <p><br>
    </p>
    <p>Thank you. <br>
    </p>
    <p><br>
    </p>
    <p>I have briefly reviewed the English language version of the
      license and the translation does not appear to be professionally
      done. It is our policy to have certified translations of licenses
      in foreign languages. This license says that "IN THE CASE OF
      DIVERGENCE BETWEEN THE CHINESE AND ENGLISH VERSIONS, THE CHINESE
      VERSION SHALL PREVAIL," so we need to review an accurate
      translation of the Chinese version of the license.</p>
    <p><br>
    </p>
    <p>The English language version of the license is problematic and I
      am hoping that it is a translation issue, not a problem with the
      license in its original language. One problem is that it does not
      grant all the rights necessary in copyright. Specifically it
      states the grant is "to reproduce, use, modify, or Distribute" the
      software. However, under US law these are not all the rights of
      the copyright author, which include the right to publicly display
      and the right to publicly perform.* Under US law this license
      would be construed as withholding the rights of display and
      performance and therefore would not be an open source license.<br>
    </p>
    <p><br>
    </p>
    <p>The patent grant is also quite confusing. It says "where such
      patent license is only limited to the patent claims owned or
      controlled by such Contributor now or in future which will be
      necessarily infringed by its Contribution alone, excluding of any
      patent claims solely be infringed by your modification." "Only
      limited" is odd phrasing in English and it's not clear how the
      word "only" might be read. "Excluding of any patent claims solely
      be infringed by your modification" is grammatically incorrect and
      might be construed as exactly the opposite of what you meant to
      say. That is, this phrase could be read to say that the exclusion
      modifies the non-grant, not that it is a further clarification of
      the scope of the original grant - in other words, the word
      "excluding" modifies the non-grant so that it becomes a grant for
      later modifications.</p>
    <p><br>
    </p>
    <p>Please therefore provide a certified translation of the Chinese
      language version of the license so we can learn whether the
      problems are just a function of an unfaithful translation or there
      is a fundamental problem with this version of the license.</p>
    <p><br>
      If the problem in the copyright grant is in the Chinese language
      version too, please consider withdrawing the license from review
      so that you can revise it and resubmit it.<br>
    </p>
    <p><br>
    </p>
    <p>Pam<br>
    </p>
    <p><br>
    </p>
    <p>*Because licenses are now used internationally, a better practice
      for open source licenses is to grant a license to all copyright
      rights without enumerating them, to ensure that the grant is
      complete in all jurisdictions.<br>
