Implements J6 from NEXT_100_PR_MAP: public license and reuse guide.

What

  • docs/LICENSE_AND_REUSE_GUIDE.md: 8 sections
  • Apache 2.0 summary: what you may do, must do, must not do
  • Artifact-specific constraints: CERT-, FAE-, BMC-, schema files
  • dry_lab_only preservation requirement: cannot strip disclaimers
  • proof_ladder_level immutability: cannot modify without new CERT-
  • Trademark non-claim: derivative projects may not use 'OpenAMP Foundry' to imply official status
  • Patent termination clause summary
  • Contribution licensing: PRs offered under Apache 2.0
  • Docs-only PR; no code changes

Why

Without a reuse guide, partner labs either over-cautiously avoid reusing any output, or incorrectly redistribute artifacts without the dry-lab-only disclaimer. The guide clarifies that reuse is wide-open under Apache 2.0 while making it explicit that the dry_lab_only assertion cannot be stripped.

Disconfirming pass

  • Guide does not grant permission to remove dry_lab_only flags
  • Does not imply biological activity anywhere
  • proof_ladder_level immutability rule prevents silent claim escalation during redistribution
