Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies
36
of this license document, but changing it is not allowed.
43
The licenses for most software are designed to take away your
44
freedom to share and change it. By contrast, the GNU General Public
45
License is intended to guarantee your freedom to share and change free
46
software--to make sure the software is free for all its users. This
47
General Public License applies to most of the Free Software
48
Foundation's software and to any other program whose authors commit to
49
using it. (Some other Free Software Foundation software is covered by
50
the GNU Library General Public License instead.) You can apply it to
55
When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not
56
price. Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that you
57
have the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge for
58
this service if you wish), that you receive source code or can get it
59
if you want it, that you can change the software or use pieces of it
60
in new free programs; and that you know you can do these things.
64
To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that forbid
65
anyone to deny you these rights or to ask you to surrender the rights.
66
These restrictions translate to certain responsibilities for you if you
67
distribute copies of the software, or if you modify it.
71
For example, if you distribute copies of such a program, whether
72
gratis or for a fee, you must give the recipients all the rights that
73
you have. You must make sure that they, too, receive or can get the
74
source code. And you must show them these terms so they know their
79
We protect your rights with two steps: (1) copyright the software, and
80
(2) offer you this license which gives you legal permission to copy,
81
distribute and/or modify the software.
85
Also, for each author's protection and ours, we want to make certain
86
that everyone understands that there is no warranty for this free
87
software. If the software is modified by someone else and passed on, we
88
want its recipients to know that what they have is not the original, so
89
that any problems introduced by others will not reflect on the original
94
Finally, any free program is threatened constantly by software
95
patents. We wish to avoid the danger that redistributors of a free
96
program will individually obtain patent licenses, in effect making the
97
program proprietary. To prevent this, we have made it clear that any
98
patent must be licensed for everyone's free use or not licensed at all.
102
The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and
108
<H2>TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION</H2>
113
This License applies to any program or other work which contains
114
a notice placed by the copyright holder saying it may be distributed
115
under the terms of this General Public License. The "Program", below,
116
refers to any such program or work, and a "work based on the Program"
117
means either the Program or any derivative work under copyright law:
118
that is to say, a work containing the Program or a portion of it,
119
either verbatim or with modifications and/or translated into another
120
language. (Hereinafter, translation is included without limitation in
121
the term "modification".) Each licensee is addressed as "you".
124
Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are not
125
covered by this License; they are outside its scope. The act of
126
running the Program is not restricted, and the output from the Program
127
is covered only if its contents constitute a work based on the
128
Program (independent of having been made by running the Program).
129
Whether that is true depends on what the Program does.
134
You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Program's
135
source code as you receive it, in any medium, provided that you
136
conspicuously and appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate
137
copyright notice and disclaimer of warranty; keep intact all the
138
notices that refer to this License and to the absence of any warranty;
139
and give any other recipients of the Program a copy of this License
140
along with the Program.
143
You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy, and
144
you may at your option offer warranty protection in exchange for a fee.
148
You may modify your copy or copies of the Program or any portion
149
of it, thus forming a work based on the Program, and copy and
150
distribute such modifications or work under the terms of Section 1
151
above, provided that you also meet all of these conditions:
156
<LI><STRONG>a)</STRONG>
157
You must cause the modified files to carry prominent notices
158
stating that you changed the files and the date of any change.
161
<LI><STRONG>b)</STRONG>
162
You must cause any work that you distribute or publish, that in
163
whole or in part contains or is derived from the Program or any
164
part thereof, to be licensed as a whole at no charge to all third
165
parties under the terms of this License.
168
<LI><STRONG>c)</STRONG>
169
If the modified program normally reads commands interactively
170
when run, you must cause it, when started running for such
171
interactive use in the most ordinary way, to print or display an
172
announcement including an appropriate copyright notice and a
173
notice that there is no warranty (or else, saying that you provide
174
a warranty) and that users may redistribute the program under
175
these conditions, and telling the user how to view a copy of this
176
License. (Exception: if the Program itself is interactive but
177
does not normally print such an announcement, your work based on
178
the Program is not required to print an announcement.)
181
These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole. If
182
identifiable sections of that work are not derived from the Program,
183
and can be reasonably considered independent and separate works in
184
themselves, then this License, and its terms, do not apply to those
185
sections when you distribute them as separate works. But when you
186
distribute the same sections as part of a whole which is a work based
187
on the Program, the distribution of the whole must be on the terms of
188
this License, whose permissions for other licensees extend to the
189
entire whole, and thus to each and every part regardless of who wrote it.
192
Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest
193
your rights to work written entirely by you; rather, the intent is to
194
exercise the right to control the distribution of derivative or
195
collective works based on the Program.
198
In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the Program
199
with the Program (or with a work based on the Program) on a volume of
200
a storage or distribution medium does not bring the other work under
201
the scope of this License.
206
You may copy and distribute the Program (or a work based on it,
207
under Section 2) in object code or executable form under the terms of
208
Sections 1 and 2 above provided that you also do one of the following:
211
<!-- we use this doubled UL to get the sub-sections indented, -->
212
<!-- while making the bullets as unobvious as possible. -->
215
<LI><STRONG>a)</STRONG>
216
Accompany it with the complete corresponding machine-readable
217
source code, which must be distributed under the terms of Sections
218
1 and 2 above on a medium customarily used for software interchange; or,
221
<LI><STRONG>b)</STRONG>
222
Accompany it with a written offer, valid for at least three
223
years, to give any third party, for a charge no more than your
224
cost of physically performing source distribution, a complete
225
machine-readable copy of the corresponding source code, to be
226
distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium
227
customarily used for software interchange; or,
230
<LI><STRONG>c)</STRONG>
231
Accompany it with the information you received as to the offer
232
to distribute corresponding source code. (This alternative is
233
allowed only for noncommercial distribution and only if you
234
received the program in object code or executable form with such
235
an offer, in accord with Subsection b above.)
238
The source code for a work means the preferred form of the work for
239
making modifications to it. For an executable work, complete source
240
code means all the source code for all modules it contains, plus any
241
associated interface definition files, plus the scripts used to
242
control compilation and installation of the executable. However, as a
243
special exception, the source code distributed need not include
244
anything that is normally distributed (in either source or binary
245
form) with the major components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of the
246
operating system on which the executable runs, unless that component
247
itself accompanies the executable.
250
If distribution of executable or object code is made by offering
251
access to copy from a designated place, then offering equivalent
252
access to copy the source code from the same place counts as
253
distribution of the source code, even though third parties are not
254
compelled to copy the source along with the object code.
258
You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the Program
259
except as expressly provided under this License. Any attempt
260
otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense or distribute the Program is
261
void, and will automatically terminate your rights under this License.
262
However, parties who have received copies, or rights, from you under
263
this License will not have their licenses terminated so long as such
264
parties remain in full compliance.
269
You are not required to accept this License, since you have not
270
signed it. However, nothing else grants you permission to modify or
271
distribute the Program or its derivative works. These actions are
272
prohibited by law if you do not accept this License. Therefore, by
273
modifying or distributing the Program (or any work based on the
274
Program), you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so, and
275
all its terms and conditions for copying, distributing or modifying
276
the Program or works based on it.
281
Each time you redistribute the Program (or any work based on the
282
Program), the recipient automatically receives a license from the
283
original licensor to copy, distribute or modify the Program subject to
284
these terms and conditions. You may not impose any further
285
restrictions on the recipients' exercise of the rights granted herein.
286
You are not responsible for enforcing compliance by third parties to
292
If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent
293
infringement or for any other reason (not limited to patent issues),
294
conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or
295
otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not
296
excuse you from the conditions of this License. If you cannot
297
distribute so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this
298
License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you
299
may not distribute the Program at all. For example, if a patent
300
license would not permit royalty-free redistribution of the Program by
301
all those who receive copies directly or indirectly through you, then
302
the only way you could satisfy both it and this License would be to
303
refrain entirely from distribution of the Program.
306
If any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable under
307
any particular circumstance, the balance of the section is intended to
308
apply and the section as a whole is intended to apply in other
312
It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe any
313
patents or other property right claims or to contest validity of any
314
such claims; this section has the sole purpose of protecting the
315
integrity of the free software distribution system, which is
316
implemented by public license practices. Many people have made
317
generous contributions to the wide range of software distributed
318
through that system in reliance on consistent application of that
319
system; it is up to the author/donor to decide if he or she is willing
320
to distribute software through any other system and a licensee cannot
324
This section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is believed to
325
be a consequence of the rest of this License.
330
If the distribution and/or use of the Program is restricted in
331
certain countries either by patents or by copyrighted interfaces, the
332
original copyright holder who places the Program under this License
333
may add an explicit geographical distribution limitation excluding
334
those countries, so that distribution is permitted only in or among
335
countries not thus excluded. In such case, this License incorporates
336
the limitation as if written in the body of this License.
341
The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions
342
of the General Public License from time to time. Such new versions will
343
be similar in spirit to the present version, but may differ in detail to
344
address new problems or concerns.
347
Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the Program
348
specifies a version number of this License which applies to it and "any
349
later version", you have the option of following the terms and conditions
350
either of that version or of any later version published by the Free
351
Software Foundation. If the Program does not specify a version number of
352
this License, you may choose any version ever published by the Free Software
359
If you wish to incorporate parts of the Program into other free
360
programs whose distribution conditions are different, write to the author
361
to ask for permission. For software which is copyrighted by the Free
362
Software Foundation, write to the Free Software Foundation; we sometimes
363
make exceptions for this. Our decision will be guided by the two goals
364
of preserving the free status of all derivatives of our free software and
365
of promoting the sharing and reuse of software generally.
369
<P><STRONG>NO WARRANTY</STRONG></P>
374
BECAUSE THE PROGRAM IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE, THERE IS NO WARRANTY
375
FOR THE PROGRAM, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW. EXCEPT WHEN
376
OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER PARTIES
377
PROVIDE THE PROGRAM "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED
378
OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF
379
MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. THE ENTIRE RISK AS
380
TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE PROGRAM IS WITH YOU. SHOULD THE
381
PROGRAM PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE COST OF ALL NECESSARY SERVICING,
382
REPAIR OR CORRECTION.
387
IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN WRITING
388
WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MAY MODIFY AND/OR
389
REDISTRIBUTE THE PROGRAM AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES,
390
INCLUDING ANY GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING
391
OUT OF THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED
392
TO LOSS OF DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY
393
YOU OR THIRD PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF THE PROGRAM TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER
394
PROGRAMS), EVEN IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE
395
POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
