-CERN Open Hardware Licence Version 2 - Permissive
-
-
-Preamble
-
-CERN has developed this licence to promote collaboration among
-hardware designers and to provide a legal tool which supports the
-freedom to use, study, modify, share and distribute hardware designs
-and products based on those designs. Version 2 of the CERN Open
-Hardware Licence comes in three variants: this licence, CERN-OHL-P
-(permissive); and two reciprocal licences: CERN- OHL-W (weakly
-reciprocal) and CERN-OHL-S (strongly reciprocal).
-
-The CERN-OHL-P is copyright CERN 2020. Anyone is welcome to use it, in
-unmodified form only.
-
-Use of this Licence does not imply any endorsement by CERN of any
-Licensor or their designs nor does it imply any involvement by CERN in
-their development.
-

-6 Patents
-
-  6.1 Subject to the terms and conditions of this Licence, each
-      Licensor hereby grants to You a perpetual, worldwide,
-      non-exclusive, no-charge, royalty-free, irrevocable (except as
-      stated in this section 6, or where terminated by the Licensor
-      for cause) patent license to Make, have Made, use, offer to
-      sell, sell, import, and otherwise transfer the Covered Source
-      and Products, where such licence applies only to those patent
-      claims licensable by such Licensor that are necessarily
-      infringed by exercising rights under the Covered Source as
-      Conveyed by that Licensor.
-
-  6.2 If You institute patent litigation against any entity (including
-      a cross-claim or counterclaim in a lawsuit) alleging that the
-      Covered Source or a Product constitutes direct or contributory
-      patent infringement, or You seek any declaration that a patent
-      licensed to You under this Licence is invalid or unenforceable
-      then any rights granted to You under this Licence shall
-      terminate as of the date such process is initiated.
-
-
-7 General
-
-  7.1 If any provisions of this Licence are or subsequently become
-      invalid or unenforceable for any reason, the remaining
-      provisions shall remain effective.
-
-  7.2 You shall not use any of the name (including acronyms and
-      abbreviations), image, or logo by which the Licensor or CERN is
-      known, except where needed to comply with section 3, or where
-      the use is otherwise allowed by law. Any such permitted use
-      shall be factual and shall not be made so as to suggest any kind
-      of endorsement or implication of involvement by the Licensor or
-      its personnel.
-
-  7.3 CERN may publish updated versions and variants of this Licence
-      which it considers to be in the spirit of this version, but may
-      differ in detail to address new problems or concerns. New
-      versions will be published with a unique version number and a
-      variant identifier specifying the variant. If the Licensor has
-      specified that a given variant applies to the Covered Source
-      without specifying a version, You may treat that Covered Source
-      as being released under any version of the CERN-OHL with that
-      variant. If no variant is specified, the Covered Source shall be
-      treated as being released under CERN-OHL-S. The Licensor may
-      also specify that the Covered Source is subject to a specific
-      version of the CERN-OHL or any later version in which case You
-      may apply this or any later version of CERN-OHL with the same
-      variant identifier published by CERN.
-
-  7.4 This Licence shall not be enforceable except by a Licensor
-      acting as such, and third party beneficiary rights are
-      specifically excluded.

+     Considerations for licensors: Our public licenses are
+     intended for use by those authorized to give the public
+     permission to use material in ways otherwise restricted by
+     copyright and certain other rights. Our licenses are
+     irrevocable. Licensors should read and understand the terms
+     and conditions of the license they choose before applying it.
+     Licensors should also secure all rights necessary before
+     applying our licenses so that the public can reuse the

+     licenses, a licensor grants the public permission to use the
+     licensed material under specified terms and conditions. If
+     the licensor's permission is not necessary for any reason--for
+     example, because of any applicable exception or limitation to
+     copyright--then that use is not regulated by the license. Our
+     licenses grant only permissions under copyright and certain
+     other rights that a licensor has authority to grant. Use of
+     the licensed material may still be restricted for other
+     reasons, including because others have copyright or other
+     rights in the material. A licensor may make special requests,
+     such as asking that all changes be marked or described.
+     Although not required by our licenses, you are encouraged to
+     respect those requests where reasonable. More considerations
