My curiosity requires that I ask if clause 4 is field of use
restriction:

4. You shall not cause the SOFA software to be brought into disrepute,
   either by misuse, or use for inappropriate tasks, or by inappropriate
   modification.

I wonder who determines what is inappropriate.  And what whoever came up
with this was thinking.
