1. PREAMBLE
─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────

MCR-Attention is an original software project developed and maintained by
Gerson Fabian Buenahora Ormaza, publicly known as BUEORM.

MCR-Attention is a PyTorch-based artificial intelligence library implementing
a multi-scale recurrent attention architecture, including, among other
components: multi-scale recurrent memory, learned decay mechanisms,
associative scan processing, adaptive attention routing, rotary position
encoding, streaming inference, and associated model creation, training,
fine-tuning, saving, loading, and generation functionality.

This License is intended to make the MCR-Attention source code publicly
accessible for research, education, personal experimentation, and other
non-commercial purposes, while expressly reserving commercial exploitation
and other restricted rights to the Author.

By accessing, downloading, copying, modifying, executing, studying, or
otherwise using the Software, you agree to be bound by the terms of this
License. If you do not agree to these terms, you may not use the Software.

─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
2. DEFINITIONS
─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────

2.1 "Author"
    Gerson Fabian Buenahora Ormaza, publicly known as BUEORM, GitHub account
    bueormnew, residing in Colombia.

2.2 "Software"
    MCR-Attention and all versions, releases, source code, object code,
    documentation, examples, configuration files, scripts, tests, utilities,
    implementation details, and other materials distributed by the Author
    under this License.

2.3 "Architecture"
    The implementation embodied in the Software, including its documented and
    implemented structural organization, mechanisms, combinations, components,
    computational arrangements, and implementation-specific expression.

    For MCR-Attention, this includes without limitation: the multi-scale
    recurrent memory system, learned decay mechanisms, adaptive attention
    routing, compressed recurrent representations, associative scan
    implementation, streaming recurrent inference mechanisms, and the
    combination and implementation of these elements as expressed or embodied
    in the Software.

    This definition does not purport to claim copyright ownership over
    abstract mathematical ideas, general concepts, algorithms, principles, or
    methods to the extent that applicable law does not permit such protection.

2.4 "Derivative Work"
    Any work that is based upon, incorporates, adapts, modifies, translates,
    ports, refactors, restructures, extends, or otherwise derives from the
    Software or a substantial portion of the Software.

    A work may constitute a Derivative Work regardless of whether its source
    code is substantially rewritten, translated into another programming
    language, reorganized, optimized, renamed, refactored, or otherwise
    modified.

2.5 "MCR-Derived Implementation"
    Any implementation, reimplementation, rewrite, port, adaptation, or
    substantially similar implementation that:
    (a) incorporates or reproduces a substantial portion of the Software;
    (b) is based materially upon the source code, documentation,
        implementation details, or technical design of the Software;
    (c) reproduces a substantial portion of the implementation-specific
        structure or expression of the Software; or
    (d) is demonstrated, through technical evidence or other reasonable
        evidence, to be materially derived from the Software.

    Changing programming languages, variable names, class names, function
    names, file organization, APIs, or implementation syntax does not by
    itself prevent an implementation from being considered a Derivative Work
    or MCR-Derived Implementation.

2.6 "Model"
    Any machine-learning, artificial-intelligence, neural-network,
    language-model, or other computational model created, trained, fine-tuned,
    modified, initialized, or otherwise produced using the Software or a
    Derivative Work.

2.7 "Commercial Use"
    Any use intended, directly or indirectly, to obtain monetary compensation,
    financial benefit, economic advantage, business value, revenue, profit,
    investment value, commercial advantage, or other consideration.

    Commercial Use includes without limitation: selling Software or Derivative
    Works; selling Models; licensing Models; offering Models through paid
    access; offering APIs; offering inference services; offering hosted or
    cloud services; SaaS products; subscriptions; memberships; paid
    applications; paid platforms; paid plugins or integrations;
    advertising-supported services; sponsorship-supported services where the
    Software or a Model materially contributes to the commercial offering;
    usage-based billing; token-based billing; charging for inference; charging
    for access to a Model; commercial consulting or services materially based
    upon the Software or Architecture; embedding the Software or a Model into a
    commercial product; using the Software or a Model to provide a commercial
    service to third parties; or any other direct or indirect monetization of
    the Software, Architecture, Derivative Work, MCR-Derived Implementation,
    or Model.

    Commercial Use does not require that the Software itself be sold. Indirect
    commercial exploitation is also Commercial Use.

2.8 "Non-Commercial Use"
    Use that is not intended to generate direct or indirect monetary
    compensation, commercial advantage, business revenue, or other economic
    benefit. Examples include personal experimentation, education, academic
    research, scientific research, benchmarking, testing, and development
    conducted without Commercial Use.

─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
3. COPYRIGHT AND OWNERSHIP
─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────

The Software is protected by applicable copyright and intellectual-property
laws. All rights, title, and interest in and to the Software remain with the
Author except for the limited rights expressly granted by this License.
Nothing in this License constitutes a transfer of ownership of the Software.
The Author reserves all rights not expressly granted herein.

─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
4. LIMITED NON-COMMERCIAL LICENSE GRANT
─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────

Subject to full compliance with this License, the Author grants you a

You may not relicense a Derivative Work under a license that permits rights
broader than those granted by this License. You may not remove or circumvent
the restrictions of this License by changing the programming language,
rewriting the implementation, restructuring the source tree, changing names,
changing APIs, or substantially refactoring the Software.

─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
8. REIMPLEMENTATIONS AND SUBSTANTIAL REWRITES
─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────

A complete or substantial rewrite of the Software does not automatically
eliminate the obligations of this License. Where a reimplementation is
materially derived from the Software, its source code, implementation-
specific design, documentation, technical implementation, or other protected
expression, the resulting work shall be treated as a Derivative Work or
MCR-Derived Implementation to the extent permitted by applicable law.

This clause does not prohibit genuinely independent development that was
created without copying or materially deriving from the Software, nor does it
claim ownership of ideas, mathematical principles, algorithms, methods, or
systems that are not protectable under applicable law.
