Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies
9
of this license document, but changing it is not allowed.
10
11
Preamble
12
13
The licenses for most software are designed to take away your freedom
14
to share and change it. By contrast, the GNU General Public License is
15
intended to guarantee your freedom to share and change free
16
software--to make sure the software is free for all its users. This General
17
Public License applies to most of the Free Software Foundation's
18
software and to any other program whose authors commit to using it.
19
(Some other Free Software Foundation software is covered by the
20
GNU Library General Public License instead.) You can apply it to your
21
programs, too.
22
23
When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not
24
price. Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that you
25
have the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge for
26
this service if you wish), that you receive source code or can get it if you
27
want it, that you can change the software or use pieces of it in new free
28
programs; and that you know you can do these things.
29
30
To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that forbid anyone
31
to deny you these rights or to ask you to surrender the rights. These
32
restrictions translate to certain responsibilities for you if you distribute
33
copies of the software, or if you modify it.
34
35
For example, if you distribute copies of such a program, whether gratis
36
or for a fee, you must give the recipients all the rights that you have. You
37
must make sure that they, too, receive or can get the source code. And
38
you must show them these terms so they know their rights.
39
40
We protect your rights with two steps: (1) copyright the software, and
41
(2) offer you this license which gives you legal permission to copy,
42
distribute and/or modify the software.
43
44
Also, for each author's protection and ours, we want to make certain
45
that everyone understands that there is no warranty for this free
46
software. If the software is modified by someone else and passed on,
47
we want its recipients to know that what they have is not the original, so
48
that any problems introduced by others will not reflect on the original
49
authors' reputations.
50
51
Finally, any free program is threatened constantly by software patents.
52
We wish to avoid the danger that redistributors of a free program will
53
individually obtain patent licenses, in effect making the program
54
proprietary. To prevent this, we have made it clear that any patent must
55
be licensed for everyone's free use or not licensed at all.
56
57
The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and
58
modification follow.
59
60
TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR
61
COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND
62
MODIFICATION
63
64
0. This License applies to any program or other work which contains a
65
notice placed by the copyright holder saying it may be distributed under
66
the terms of this General Public License. The "Program", below, refers
67
to any such program or work, and a "work based on the Program"
68
means either the Program or any derivative work under copyright law:
69
that is to say, a work containing the Program or a portion of it, either
70
verbatim or with modifications and/or translated into another language.
71
(Hereinafter, translation is included without limitation in the term
72
"modification".) Each licensee is addressed as "you".
73
74
Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are not
75
covered by this License; they are outside its scope. The act of running
76
the Program is not restricted, and the output from the Program is
77
covered only if its contents constitute a work based on the Program
78
(independent of having been made by running the Program). Whether
79
that is true depends on what the Program does.
80
81
1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Program's
82
source code as you receive it, in any medium, provided that you
83
conspicuously and appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate
84
copyright notice and disclaimer of warranty; keep intact all the notices
85
that refer to this License and to the absence of any warranty; and give
86
any other recipients of the Program a copy of this License along with the
87
Program.
88
89
You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy, and
90
you may at your option offer warranty protection in exchange for a fee.
91
92
2. You may modify your copy or copies of the Program or any portion
93
of it, thus forming a work based on the Program, and copy and
94
distribute such modifications or work under the terms of Section 1
95
above, provided that you also meet all of these conditions:
96
97
a) You must cause the modified files to carry prominent notices
98
stating that you changed the files and the date of any change.
99
100
b) You must cause any work that you distribute or publish, that in
101
whole or in part contains or is derived from the Program or any
102
part thereof, to be licensed as a whole at no charge to all third
103
parties under the terms of this License.
104
105
c) If the modified program normally reads commands interactively
106
when run, you must cause it, when started running for such
107
interactive use in the most ordinary way, to print or display an
108
announcement including an appropriate copyright notice and a
109
notice that there is no warranty (or else, saying that you provide a
110
warranty) and that users may redistribute the program under
111
these conditions, and telling the user how to view a copy of this
112
License. (Exception: if the Program itself is interactive but does
113
not normally print such an announcement, your work based on
114
the Program is not required to print an announcement.)
115
116
These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole. If
117
identifiable sections of that work are not derived from the Program, and
118
can be reasonably considered independent and separate works in
119
themselves, then this License, and its terms, do not apply to those
120
sections when you distribute them as separate works. But when you
121
distribute the same sections as part of a whole which is a work based on
122
the Program, the distribution of the whole must be on the terms of this
123
License, whose permissions for other licensees extend to the entire
124
whole, and thus to each and every part regardless of who wrote it.
125
126
Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest your
127
rights to work written entirely by you; rather, the intent is to exercise the
128
right to control the distribution of derivative or collective works based
129
on the Program.
130
131
In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the
132
Program with the Program (or with a work based on the Program) on a
133
volume of a storage or distribution medium does not bring the other
134
work under the scope of this License.
135
136
3. You may copy and distribute the Program (or a work based on it,
137
under Section 2) in object code or executable form under the terms of
138
Sections 1 and 2 above provided that you also do one of the following:
139
140
a) Accompany it with the complete corresponding
141
machine-readable source code, which must be distributed under
142
the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium customarily
143
used for software interchange; or,
144
145
b) Accompany it with a written offer, valid for at least three
146
years, to give any third party, for a charge no more than your cost
147
of physically performing source distribution, a complete
148
machine-readable copy of the corresponding source code, to be
149
distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a
150
medium customarily used for software interchange; or,
151
152
c) Accompany it with the information you received as to the offer
153
to distribute corresponding source code. (This alternative is
154
allowed only for noncommercial distribution and only if you
155
received the program in object code or executable form with
156
such an offer, in accord with Subsection b above.)
157
158
The source code for a work means the preferred form of the work for
159
making modifications to it. For an executable work, complete source
160
code means all the source code for all modules it contains, plus any
161
associated interface definition files, plus the scripts used to control
162
compilation and installation of the executable. However, as a special
163
exception, the source code distributed need not include anything that is
164
normally distributed (in either source or binary form) with the major
165
components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of the operating system on
166
which the executable runs, unless that component itself accompanies the
167
executable.
168
169
If distribution of executable or object code is made by offering access to
170
copy from a designated place, then offering equivalent access to copy
171
the source code from the same place counts as distribution of the source
172
code, even though third parties are not compelled to copy the source
173
along with the object code.
174
175
4. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the Program
176
except as expressly provided under this License. Any attempt otherwise
177
to copy, modify, sublicense or distribute the Program is void, and will
178
automatically terminate your rights under this License. However, parties
179
who have received copies, or rights, from you under this License will not
180
have their licenses terminated so long as such parties remain in full
181
compliance.
182
183
5. You are not required to accept this License, since you have not
184
signed it. However, nothing else grants you permission to modify or
185
distribute the Program or its derivative works. These actions are
186
prohibited by law if you do not accept this License. Therefore, by
187
modifying or distributing the Program (or any work based on the
188
Program), you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so, and all
189
its terms and conditions for copying, distributing or modifying the
190
Program or works based on it.
191
192
6. Each time you redistribute the Program (or any work based on the
193
Program), the recipient automatically receives a license from the original
194
licensor to copy, distribute or modify the Program subject to these terms
195
and conditions. You may not impose any further restrictions on the
196
recipients' exercise of the rights granted herein. You are not responsible
197
for enforcing compliance by third parties to this License.
198
199
7. If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent
200
infringement or for any other reason (not limited to patent issues),
201
conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or
202
otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not
203
excuse you from the conditions of this License. If you cannot distribute
204
so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this License and
205
any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you may not
206
distribute the Program at all. For example, if a patent license would not
207
permit royalty-free redistribution of the Program by all those who
208
receive copies directly or indirectly through you, then the only way you
209
could satisfy both it and this License would be to refrain entirely from
210
distribution of the Program.
211
212
If any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable under any
213
particular circumstance, the balance of the section is intended to apply
214
and the section as a whole is intended to apply in other circumstances.
215
216
It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe any patents
217
or other property right claims or to contest validity of any such claims;
218
this section has the sole purpose of protecting the integrity of the free
219
software distribution system, which is implemented by public license
220
practices. Many people have made generous contributions to the wide
221
range of software distributed through that system in reliance on
222
consistent application of that system; it is up to the author/donor to
223
decide if he or she is willing to distribute software through any other
224
system and a licensee cannot impose that choice.
225
226
This section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is believed to be
227
a consequence of the rest of this License.
228
229
8. If the distribution and/or use of the Program is restricted in certain
230
countries either by patents or by copyrighted interfaces, the original
231
copyright holder who places the Program under this License may add an
232
explicit geographical distribution limitation excluding those countries, so
233
that distribution is permitted only in or among countries not thus
234
excluded. In such case, this License incorporates the limitation as if
235
written in the body of this License.
236
237
9. The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new
238
versions of the General Public License from time to time. Such new
239
versions will be similar in spirit to the present version, but may differ in
240
detail to address new problems or concerns.
241
242
Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the Program
243
specifies a version number of this License which applies to it and "any
244
later version", you have the option of following the terms and conditions
245
either of that version or of any later version published by the Free
246
Software Foundation. If the Program does not specify a version number
247
of this License, you may choose any version ever published by the Free
248
Software Foundation.
249
250
10. If you wish to incorporate parts of the Program into other free
251
programs whose distribution conditions are different, write to the author
252
to ask for permission. For software which is copyrighted by the Free
253
Software Foundation, write to the Free Software Foundation; we
254
sometimes make exceptions for this. Our decision will be guided by the
255
two goals of preserving the free status of all derivatives of our free
256
software and of promoting the sharing and reuse of software generally.
257
258
NO WARRANTY
259
260
11. BECAUSE THE PROGRAM IS LICENSED FREE OF
261
CHARGE, THERE IS NO WARRANTY FOR THE PROGRAM,
262
TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW. EXCEPT
263
WHEN OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT
264
HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER PARTIES PROVIDE THE
265
PROGRAM "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND,
266
EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT
267
LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF
268
MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR
269
PURPOSE. THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY AND
270
PERFORMANCE OF THE PROGRAM IS WITH YOU. SHOULD
271
THE PROGRAM PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE
272
COST OF ALL NECESSARY SERVICING, REPAIR OR
273
CORRECTION.
274
275
12. IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW
276
OR AGREED TO IN WRITING WILL ANY COPYRIGHT
277
HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MAY MODIFY
278
AND/OR REDISTRIBUTE THE PROGRAM AS PERMITTED
279
ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES, INCLUDING
280
ANY GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR
281
CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THE USE OR
282
INABILITY TO USE THE PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT NOT
283
LIMITED TO LOSS OF DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED
284
INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY YOU OR THIRD
285
PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF THE PROGRAM TO OPERATE
286
WITH ANY OTHER PROGRAMS), EVEN IF SUCH HOLDER OR
287
OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY
288
OF SUCH DAMAGES.
289
290
