The OIN license agreement provides for community members to limit the scope of their OIN cross-license commitment by taking a “Limitation Election” as described in Section 2.2. However, there are ongoing commitments from an organization which takes a “Limitation Election.” For example, the electee must provide a continuing license to all organizations which are OIN licensees at the time of the “Limitation Election” based on the Linux System at that time. Because of these continuing commitments, organizations which have taken a “Limitation Election” are included in the list of OIN community members. Please see the Notes below for more information.
