2 | GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE
3 | Version 3, 29 June 2007
4 |
5 | Copyright (C) 2007 Free Software Foundation, Inc.
6 | Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies
7 | of this license document, but changing it is not allowed.
8 |
9 | Preamble
10 |
11 | The GNU General Public License is a free, copyleft license for
12 | software and other kinds of works.
13 |
14 | The licenses for most software and other practical works are designed
15 | to take away your freedom to share and change the works. By contrast,
16 | the GNU General Public License is intended to guarantee your freedom to
17 | share and change all versions of a program--to make sure it remains free
18 | software for all its users. We, the Free Software Foundation, use the
19 | GNU General Public License for most of our software; it applies also to
20 | any other work released this way by its authors. You can apply it to
21 | your 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 | them 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
28 | free programs, and that you know you can do these things.
29 |
30 | To protect your rights, we need to prevent others from denying you
31 | these rights or asking you to surrender the rights. Therefore, you have
32 | certain responsibilities if you distribute copies of the software, or if
33 | you modify it: responsibilities to respect the freedom of others.
34 |
35 | For example, if you distribute copies of such a program, whether
36 | gratis or for a fee, you must pass on to the recipients the same
37 | freedoms that you received. You must make sure that they, too, receive
38 | or can get the source code. And you must show them these terms so they
39 | know their rights.
40 |
41 | Developers that use the GNU GPL protect your rights with two steps:
42 | (1) assert copyright on the software, and (2) offer you this License
43 | giving you legal permission to copy, distribute and/or modify it.
44 |
45 | For the developers' and authors' protection, the GPL clearly explains
46 | that there is no warranty for this free software. For both users' and
47 | authors' sake, the GPL requires that modified versions be marked as
48 | changed, so that their problems will not be attributed erroneously to
49 | authors of previous versions.
50 |
51 | Some devices are designed to deny users access to install or run
52 | modified versions of the software inside them, although the manufacturer
53 | can do so. This is fundamentally incompatible with the aim of
54 | protecting users' freedom to change the software. The systematic
55 | pattern of such abuse occurs in the area of products for individuals to
56 | use, which is precisely where it is most unacceptable. Therefore, we
57 | have designed this version of the GPL to prohibit the practice for those
58 | products. If such problems arise substantially in other domains, we
59 | stand ready to extend this provision to those domains in future versions
60 | of the GPL, as needed to protect the freedom of users.
61 |
62 | Finally, every program is threatened constantly by software patents.
63 | States should not allow patents to restrict development and use of
64 | software on general-purpose computers, but in those that do, we wish to
65 | avoid the special danger that patents applied to a free program could
66 | make it effectively proprietary. To prevent this, the GPL assures that
67 | patents cannot be used to render the program non-free.
68 |
69 | The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and
70 | modification follow.
71 |
72 | TERMS AND CONDITIONS
73 |
74 | 0. Definitions.
75 |
76 | "This License" refers to version 3 of the GNU General Public License.
77 |
78 | "Copyright" also means copyright-like laws that apply to other kinds of
79 | works, such as semiconductor masks.
80 |
81 | "The Program" refers to any copyrightable work licensed under this
82 | License. Each licensee is addressed as "you". "Licensees" and
83 | "recipients" may be individuals or organizations.
84 |
85 | To "modify" a work means to copy from or adapt all or part of the work
86 | in a fashion requiring copyright permission, other than the making of an
87 | exact copy. The resulting work is called a "modified version" of the
88 | earlier work or a work "based on" the earlier work.
89 |
90 | A "covered work" means either the unmodified Program or a work based
91 | on the Program.
92 |
93 | To "propagate" a work means to do anything with it that, without
94 | permission, would make you directly or secondarily liable for
95 | infringement under applicable copyright law, except executing it on a
96 | computer or modifying a private copy. Propagation includes copying,
97 | distribution (with or without modification), making available to the
98 | public, and in some countries other activities as well.
99 |
100 | To "convey" a work means any kind of propagation that enables other
101 | parties to make or receive copies. Mere interaction with a user through
102 | a computer network, with no transfer of a copy, is not conveying.
103 |
104 | An interactive user interface displays "Appropriate Legal Notices"
105 | to the extent that it includes a convenient and prominently visible
106 | feature that (1) displays an appropriate copyright notice, and (2)
107 | tells the user that there is no warranty for the work (except to the
108 | extent that warranties are provided), that licensees may convey the
109 | work under this License, and how to view a copy of this License. If
110 | the interface presents a list of user commands or options, such as a
111 | menu, a prominent item in the list meets this criterion.
112 |
113 | 1. Source Code.
114 |
115 | The "source code" for a work means the preferred form of the work
116 | for making modifications to it. "Object code" means any non-source
117 | form of a work.
118 |
119 | A "Standard Interface" means an interface that either is an official
120 | standard defined by a recognized standards body, or, in the case of
121 | interfaces specified for a particular programming language, one that
122 | is widely used among developers working in that language.
123 |
124 | The "System Libraries" of an executable work include anything, other
125 | than the work as a whole, that (a) is included in the normal form of
126 | packaging a Major Component, but which is not part of that Major
127 | Component, and (b) serves only to enable use of the work with that
128 | Major Component, or to implement a Standard Interface for which an
129 | implementation is available to the public in source code form. A
130 | "Major Component", in this context, means a major essential component
131 | (kernel, window system, and so on) of the specific operating system
132 | (if any) on which the executable work runs, or a compiler used to
133 | produce the work, or an object code interpreter used to run it.
134 |
135 | The "Corresponding Source" for a work in object code form means all
136 | the source code needed to generate, install, and (for an executable
137 | work) run the object code and to modify the work, including scripts to
138 | control those activities. However, it does not include the work's
139 | System Libraries, or general-purpose tools or generally available free
140 | programs which are used unmodified in performing those activities but
141 | which are not part of the work. For example, Corresponding Source
142 | includes interface definition files associated with source files for
143 | the work, and the source code for shared libraries and dynamically
144 | linked subprograms that the work is specifically designed to require,
145 | such as by intimate data communication or control flow between those
146 | subprograms and other parts of the work.
147 |
148 | The Corresponding Source need not include anything that users
149 | can regenerate automatically from other parts of the Corresponding
150 | Source.
151 |
152 | The Corresponding Source for a work in source code form is that
153 | same work.
154 |
155 | 2. Basic Permissions.
156 |
157 | All rights granted under this License are granted for the term of
158 | copyright on the Program, and are irrevocable provided the stated
159 | conditions are met. This License explicitly affirms your unlimited
160 | permission to run the unmodified Program. The output from running a
161 | covered work is covered by this License only if the output, given its
162 | content, constitutes a covered work. This License acknowledges your
163 | rights of fair use or other equivalent, as provided by copyright law.
164 |
165 | You may make, run and propagate covered works that you do not
166 | convey, without conditions so long as your license otherwise remains
167 | in force. You may convey covered works to others for the sole purpose
168 | of having them make modifications exclusively for you, or provide you
169 | with facilities for running those works, provided that you comply with
170 | the terms of this License in conveying all material for which you do
171 | not control copyright. Those thus making or running the covered works
172 | for you must do so exclusively on your behalf, under your direction
173 | and control, on terms that prohibit them from making any copies of
174 | your copyrighted material outside their relationship with you.
175 |
176 | Conveying under any other circumstances is permitted solely under
177 | the conditions stated below. Sublicensing is not allowed; section 10
178 | makes it unnecessary.
179 |
180 | 3. Protecting Users' Legal Rights From Anti-Circumvention Law.
181 |
182 | No covered work shall be deemed part of an effective technological
183 | measure under any applicable law fulfilling obligations under article
184 | 11 of the WIPO copyright treaty adopted on 20 December 1996, or
185 | similar laws prohibiting or restricting circumvention of such
186 | measures.
187 |
188 | When you convey a covered work, you waive any legal power to forbid
189 | circumvention of technological measures to the extent such circumvention
190 | is effected by exercising rights under this License with respect to
191 | the covered work, and you disclaim any intention to limit operation or
192 | modification of the work as a means of enforcing, against the work's
193 | users, your or third parties' legal rights to forbid circumvention of
194 | technological measures.
195 |
196 | 4. Conveying Verbatim Copies.
197 |
198 | You may convey verbatim copies of the Program's source code as you
199 | receive it, in any medium, provided that you conspicuously and
200 | appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate copyright notice;
201 | keep intact all notices stating that this License and any
202 | non-permissive terms added in accord with section 7 apply to the code;
203 | keep intact all notices of the absence of any warranty; and give all
204 | recipients a copy of this License along with the Program.
205 |
206 | You may charge any price or no price for each copy that you convey,
207 | and you may offer support or warranty protection for a fee.
208 |
209 | 5. Conveying Modified Source Versions.
210 |
211 | You may convey a work based on the Program, or the modifications to
212 | produce it from the Program, in the form of source code under the
213 | terms of section 4, provided that you also meet all of these conditions:
214 |
215 | a) The work must carry prominent notices stating that you modified
216 | it, and giving a relevant date.
217 |
218 | b) The work must carry prominent notices stating that it is
219 | released under this License and any conditions added under section
220 | 7. This requirement modifies the requirement in section 4 to
221 | "keep intact all notices".
222 |
223 | c) You must license the entire work, as a whole, under this
224 | License to anyone who comes into possession of a copy. This
225 | License will therefore apply, along with any applicable section 7
226 | additional terms, to the whole of the work, and all its parts,
227 | regardless of how they are packaged. This License gives no
228 | permission to license the work in any other way, but it does not
229 | invalidate such permission if you have separately received it.
230 |
231 | d) If the work has interactive user interfaces, each must display
232 | Appropriate Legal Notices; however, if the Program has interactive
233 | interfaces that do not display Appropriate Legal Notices, your
234 | work need not make them do so.
235 |
236 | A compilation of a covered work with other separate and independent
237 | works, which are not by their nature extensions of the covered work,
238 | and which are not combined with it such as to form a larger program,
239 | in or on a volume of a storage or distribution medium, is called an
240 | "aggregate" if the compilation and its resulting copyright are not
241 | used to limit the access or legal rights of the compilation's users
242 | beyond what the individual works permit. Inclusion of a covered work
243 | in an aggregate does not cause this License to apply to the other
244 | parts of the aggregate.
245 |
246 | 6. Conveying Non-Source Forms.
247 |
248 | You may convey a covered work in object code form under the terms
249 | of sections 4 and 5, provided that you also convey the
250 | machine-readable Corresponding Source under the terms of this License,
251 | in one of these ways:
252 |
253 | a) Convey the object code in, or embodied in, a physical product
254 | (including a physical distribution medium), accompanied by the
255 | Corresponding Source fixed on a durable physical medium
256 | customarily used for software interchange.
257 |
258 | b) Convey the object code in, or embodied in, a physical product
259 | (including a physical distribution medium), accompanied by a
260 | written offer, valid for at least three years and valid for as
261 | long as you offer spare parts or customer support for that product
262 | model, to give anyone who possesses the object code either (1) a
263 | copy of the Corresponding Source for all the software in the
264 | product that is covered by this License, on a durable physical
265 | medium customarily used for software interchange, for a price no
266 | more than your reasonable cost of physically performing this
267 | conveying of source, or (2) access to copy the
268 | Corresponding Source from a network server at no charge.
269 |
270 | c) Convey individual copies of the object code with a copy of the
271 | written offer to provide the Corresponding Source. This
272 | alternative is allowed only occasionally and noncommercially, and
273 | only if you received the object code with such an offer, in accord
274 | with subsection 6b.
275 |
276 | d) Convey the object code by offering access from a designated
277 | place (gratis or for a charge), and offer equivalent access to the
278 | Corresponding Source in the same way through the same place at no
279 | further charge. You need not require recipients to copy the
280 | Corresponding Source along with the object code. If the place to
281 | copy the object code is a network server, the Corresponding Source
282 | may be on a different server (operated by you or a third party)
283 | that supports equivalent copying facilities, provided you maintain
284 | clear directions next to the object code saying where to find the
285 | Corresponding Source. Regardless of what server hosts the
286 | Corresponding Source, you remain obligated to ensure that it is
287 | available for as long as needed to satisfy these requirements.
288 |
289 | e) Convey the object code using peer-to-peer transmission, provided
290 | you inform other peers where the object code and Corresponding
291 | Source of the work are being offered to the general public at no
292 | charge under subsection 6d.
293 |
294 | A separable portion of the object code, whose source code is excluded
295 | from the Corresponding Source as a System Library, need not be
296 | included in conveying the object code work.
297 |
298 | A "User Product" is either (1) a "consumer product", which means any
299 | tangible personal property which is normally used for personal, family,
300 | or household purposes, or (2) anything designed or sold for incorporation
301 | into a dwelling. In determining whether a product is a consumer product,
302 | doubtful cases shall be resolved in favor of coverage. For a particular
303 | product received by a particular user, "normally used" refers to a
304 | typical or common use of that class of product, regardless of the status
305 | of the particular user or of the way in which the particular user
306 | actually uses, or expects or is expected to use, the product. A product
307 | is a consumer product regardless of whether the product has substantial
308 | commercial, industrial or non-consumer uses, unless such uses represent
309 | the only significant mode of use of the product.
310 |
311 | "Installation Information" for a User Product means any methods,
312 | procedures, authorization keys, or other information required to install
313 | and execute modified versions of a covered work in that User Product from
314 | a modified version of its Corresponding Source. The information must
315 | suffice to ensure that the continued functioning of the modified object
316 | code is in no case prevented or interfered with solely because
317 | modification has been made.
318 |
319 | If you convey an object code work under this section in, or with, or
320 | specifically for use in, a User Product, and the conveying occurs as
321 | part of a transaction in which the right of possession and use of the
322 | User Product is transferred to the recipient in perpetuity or for a
323 | fixed term (regardless of how the transaction is characterized), the
324 | Corresponding Source conveyed under this section must be accompanied
325 | by the Installation Information. But this requirement does not apply
326 | if neither you nor any third party retains the ability to install
327 | modified object code on the User Product (for example, the work has
328 | been installed in ROM).
329 |
330 | The requirement to provide Installation Information does not include a
331 | requirement to continue to provide support service, warranty, or updates
332 | for a work that has been modified or installed by the recipient, or for
333 | the User Product in which it has been modified or installed. Access to a
334 | network may be denied when the modification itself materially and
335 | adversely affects the operation of the network or violates the rules and
336 | protocols for communication across the network.
337 |
338 | Corresponding Source conveyed, and Installation Information provided,
339 | in accord with this section must be in a format that is publicly
340 | documented (and with an implementation available to the public in
341 | source code form), and must require no special password or key for
342 | unpacking, reading or copying.
343 |
344 | 7. Additional Terms.
345 |
346 | "Additional permissions" are terms that supplement the terms of this
347 | License by making exceptions from one or more of its conditions.
348 | Additional permissions that are applicable to the entire Program shall
349 | be treated as though they were included in this License, to the extent
350 | that they are valid under applicable law. If additional permissions
351 | apply only to part of the Program, that part may be used separately
352 | under those permissions, but the entire Program remains governed by
353 | this License without regard to the additional permissions.
354 |
355 | When you convey a copy of a covered work, you may at your option
356 | remove any additional permissions from that copy, or from any part of
357 | it. (Additional permissions may be written to require their own
358 | removal in certain cases when you modify the work.) You may place
359 | additional permissions on material, added by you to a covered work,
360 | for which you have or can give appropriate copyright permission.
361 |
362 | Notwithstanding any other provision of this License, for material you
363 | add to a covered work, you may (if authorized by the copyright holders of
364 | that material) supplement the terms of this License with terms:
365 |
366 | a) Disclaiming warranty or limiting liability differently from the
367 | terms of sections 15 and 16 of this License; or
368 |
369 | b) Requiring preservation of specified reasonable legal notices or
370 | author attributions in that material or in the Appropriate Legal
371 | Notices displayed by works containing it; or
372 |
373 | c) Prohibiting misrepresentation of the origin of that material, or
374 | requiring that modified versions of such material be marked in
375 | reasonable ways as different from the original version; or
376 |
377 | d) Limiting the use for publicity purposes of names of licensors or
378 | authors of the material; or
379 |
380 | e) Declining to grant rights under trademark law for use of some
381 | trade names, trademarks, or service marks; or
382 |
383 | f) Requiring indemnification of licensors and authors of that
384 | material by anyone who conveys the material (or modified versions of
385 | it) with contractual assumptions of liability to the recipient, for
386 | any liability that these contractual assumptions directly impose on
387 | those licensors and authors.
388 |
389 | All other non-permissive additional terms are considered "further
390 | restrictions" within the meaning of section 10. If the Program as you
391 | received it, or any part of it, contains a notice stating that it is
392 | governed by this License along with a term that is a further
393 | restriction, you may remove that term. If a license document contains
394 | a further restriction but permits relicensing or conveying under this
395 | License, you may add to a covered work material governed by the terms
396 | of that license document, provided that the further restriction does
397 | not survive such relicensing or conveying.
398 |
399 | If you add terms to a covered work in accord with this section, you
400 | must place, in the relevant source files, a statement of the
401 | additional terms that apply to those files, or a notice indicating
402 | where to find the applicable terms.
403 |
404 | Additional terms, permissive or non-permissive, may be stated in the
405 | form of a separately written license, or stated as exceptions;
406 | the above requirements apply either way.
407 |
408 | 8. Termination.
409 |
410 | You may not propagate or modify a covered work except as expressly
411 | provided under this License. Any attempt otherwise to propagate or
412 | modify it is void, and will automatically terminate your rights under
413 | this License (including any patent licenses granted under the third
414 | paragraph of section 11).
415 |
416 | However, if you cease all violation of this License, then your
417 | license from a particular copyright holder is reinstated (a)
418 | provisionally, unless and until the copyright holder explicitly and
419 | finally terminates your license, and (b) permanently, if the copyright
420 | holder fails to notify you of the violation by some reasonable means
421 | prior to 60 days after the cessation.
422 |
423 | Moreover, your license from a particular copyright holder is
424 | reinstated permanently if the copyright holder notifies you of the
425 | violation by some reasonable means, this is the first time you have
426 | received notice of violation of this License (for any work) from that
427 | copyright holder, and you cure the violation prior to 30 days after
428 | your receipt of the notice.
429 |
430 | Termination of your rights under this section does not terminate the
431 | licenses of parties who have received copies or rights from you under
432 | this License. If your rights have been terminated and not permanently
433 | reinstated, you do not qualify to receive new licenses for the same
434 | material under section 10.
435 |
436 | 9. Acceptance Not Required for Having Copies.
437 |
438 | You are not required to accept this License in order to receive or
439 | run a copy of the Program. Ancillary propagation of a covered work
440 | occurring solely as a consequence of using peer-to-peer transmission
441 | to receive a copy likewise does not require acceptance. However,
442 | nothing other than this License grants you permission to propagate or
443 | modify any covered work. These actions infringe copyright if you do
444 | not accept this License. Therefore, by modifying or propagating a
445 | covered work, you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so.
446 |
447 | 10. Automatic Licensing of Downstream Recipients.
448 |
449 | Each time you convey a covered work, the recipient automatically
450 | receives a license from the original licensors, to run, modify and
451 | propagate that work, subject to this License. You are not responsible
452 | for enforcing compliance by third parties with this License.
453 |
454 | An "entity transaction" is a transaction transferring control of an
455 | organization, or substantially all assets of one, or subdividing an
456 | organization, or merging organizations. If propagation of a covered
457 | work results from an entity transaction, each party to that
458 | transaction who receives a copy of the work also receives whatever
459 | licenses to the work the party's predecessor in interest had or could
460 | give under the previous paragraph, plus a right to possession of the
461 | Corresponding Source of the work from the predecessor in interest, if
462 | the predecessor has it or can get it with reasonable efforts.
463 |
464 | You may not impose any further restrictions on the exercise of the
465 | rights granted or affirmed under this License. For example, you may
466 | not impose a license fee, royalty, or other charge for exercise of
467 | rights granted under this License, and you may not initiate litigation
468 | (including a cross-claim or counterclaim in a lawsuit) alleging that
469 | any patent claim is infringed by making, using, selling, offering for
470 | sale, or importing the Program or any portion of it.
471 |
472 | 11. Patents.
473 |
474 | A "contributor" is a copyright holder who authorizes use under this
475 | License of the Program or a work on which the Program is based. The
476 | work thus licensed is called the contributor's "contributor version".
477 |
478 | A contributor's "essential patent claims" are all patent claims
479 | owned or controlled by the contributor, whether already acquired or
480 | hereafter acquired, that would be infringed by some manner, permitted
481 | by this License, of making, using, or selling its contributor version,
482 | but do not include claims that would be infringed only as a
483 | consequence of further modification of the contributor version. For
484 | purposes of this definition, "control" includes the right to grant
485 | patent sublicenses in a manner consistent with the requirements of
486 | this License.
487 |
488 | Each contributor grants you a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free
489 | patent license under the contributor's essential patent claims, to
490 | make, use, sell, offer for sale, import and otherwise run, modify and
491 | propagate the contents of its contributor version.
492 |
493 | In the following three paragraphs, a "patent license" is any express
494 | agreement or commitment, however denominated, not to enforce a patent
495 | (such as an express permission to practice a patent or covenant not to
496 | sue for patent infringement). To "grant" such a patent license to a
497 | party means to make such an agreement or commitment not to enforce a
498 | patent against the party.
499 |
500 | If you convey a covered work, knowingly relying on a patent license,
501 | and the Corresponding Source of the work is not available for anyone
502 | to copy, free of charge and under the terms of this License, through a
503 | publicly available network server or other readily accessible means,
504 | then you must either (1) cause the Corresponding Source to be so
505 | available, or (2) arrange to deprive yourself of the benefit of the
506 | patent license for this particular work, or (3) arrange, in a manner
507 | consistent with the requirements of this License, to extend the patent
508 | license to downstream recipients. "Knowingly relying" means you have
509 | actual knowledge that, but for the patent license, your conveying the
510 | covered work in a country, or your recipient's use of the covered work
511 | in a country, would infringe one or more identifiable patents in that
512 | country that you have reason to believe are valid.
513 |
514 | If, pursuant to or in connection with a single transaction or
515 | arrangement, you convey, or propagate by procuring conveyance of, a
516 | covered work, and grant a patent license to some of the parties
517 | receiving the covered work authorizing them to use, propagate, modify
518 | or convey a specific copy of the covered work, then the patent license
519 | you grant is automatically extended to all recipients of the covered
520 | work and works based on it.
521 |
522 | A patent license is "discriminatory" if it does not include within
523 | the scope of its coverage, prohibits the exercise of, or is
524 | conditioned on the non-exercise of one or more of the rights that are
525 | specifically granted under this License. You may not convey a covered
526 | work if you are a party to an arrangement with a third party that is
527 | in the business of distributing software, under which you make payment
528 | to the third party based on the extent of your activity of conveying
529 | the work, and under which the third party grants, to any of the
530 | parties who would receive the covered work from you, a discriminatory
531 | patent license (a) in connection with copies of the covered work
532 | conveyed by you (or copies made from those copies), or (b) primarily
533 | for and in connection with specific products or compilations that
534 | contain the covered work, unless you entered into that arrangement,
535 | or that patent license was granted, prior to 28 March 2007.
536 |
537 | Nothing in this License shall be construed as excluding or limiting
538 | any implied license or other defenses to infringement that may
539 | otherwise be available to you under applicable patent law.
540 |
541 | 12. No Surrender of Others' Freedom.
542 |
543 | If conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or
544 | otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not
545 | excuse you from the conditions of this License. If you cannot convey a
546 | covered work so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this
547 | License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you may
548 | not convey it at all. For example, if you agree to terms that obligate you
549 | to collect a royalty for further conveying from those to whom you convey
550 | the Program, the only way you could satisfy both those terms and this
551 | License would be to refrain entirely from conveying the Program.
552 |
553 | 13. Use with the GNU Affero General Public License.
554 |
555 | Notwithstanding any other provision of this License, you have
556 | permission to link or combine any covered work with a work licensed
557 | under version 3 of the GNU Affero General Public License into a single
558 | combined work, and to convey the resulting work. The terms of this
559 | License will continue to apply to the part which is the covered work,
560 | but the special requirements of the GNU Affero General Public License,
561 | section 13, concerning interaction through a network will apply to the
562 | combination as such.
563 |
564 | 14. Revised Versions of this License.
565 |
566 | The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions of
567 | the GNU General Public License from time to time. Such new versions will
568 | be similar in spirit to the present version, but may differ in detail to
569 | address new problems or concerns.
570 |
571 | Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the
572 | Program specifies that a certain numbered version of the GNU General
573 | Public License "or any later version" applies to it, you have the
574 | option of following the terms and conditions either of that numbered
575 | version or of any later version published by the Free Software
576 | Foundation. If the Program does not specify a version number of the
577 | GNU General Public License, you may choose any version ever published
578 | by the Free Software Foundation.
579 |
580 | If the Program specifies that a proxy can decide which future
581 | versions of the GNU General Public License can be used, that proxy's
582 | public statement of acceptance of a version permanently authorizes you
583 | to choose that version for the Program.
584 |
585 | Later license versions may give you additional or different
586 | permissions. However, no additional obligations are imposed on any
587 | author or copyright holder as a result of your choosing to follow a
588 | later version.
589 |
590 | 15. Disclaimer of Warranty.
591 |
592 | THERE IS NO WARRANTY FOR THE PROGRAM, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY
593 | APPLICABLE LAW. EXCEPT WHEN OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT
594 | HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER PARTIES PROVIDE THE PROGRAM "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY
595 | OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO,
596 | THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR
597 | PURPOSE. THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE PROGRAM
598 | IS WITH YOU. SHOULD THE PROGRAM PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE COST OF
599 | ALL NECESSARY SERVICING, REPAIR OR CORRECTION.
600 |
601 | 16. Limitation of Liability.
602 |
603 | IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN WRITING
604 | WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MODIFIES AND/OR CONVEYS
605 | THE PROGRAM AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES, INCLUDING ANY
606 | GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THE
607 | USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF
608 | DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY YOU OR THIRD
609 | PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF THE PROGRAM TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER PROGRAMS),
610 | EVEN IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF
611 | SUCH DAMAGES.
612 |
613 | 17. Interpretation of Sections 15 and 16.
614 |
615 | If the disclaimer of warranty and limitation of liability provided
616 | above cannot be given local legal effect according to their terms,
617 | reviewing courts shall apply local law that most closely approximates
618 | an absolute waiver of all civil liability in connection with the
619 | Program, unless a warranty or assumption of liability accompanies a
620 | copy of the Program in return for a fee.
621 |
622 | END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS
623 |
624 | How to Apply These Terms to Your New Programs
625 |
626 | If you develop a new program, and you want it to be of the greatest
627 | possible use to the public, the best way to achieve this is to make it
628 | free software which everyone can redistribute and change under these terms.
629 |
630 | To do so, attach the following notices to the program. It is safest
631 | to attach them to the start of each source file to most effectively
632 | state the exclusion of warranty; and each file should have at least
633 | the "copyright" line and a pointer to where the full notice is found.
634 |
635 |
636 | Copyright (C)
637 |
638 | This program is free software: you can redistribute it and/or modify
639 | it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by
640 | the Free Software Foundation, either version 3 of the License, or
641 | (at your option) any later version.
642 |
643 | This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful,
644 | but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of
645 | MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. See the
646 | GNU General Public License for more details.
647 |
648 | You should have received a copy of the GNU General Public License
649 | along with this program. If not, see .
650 |
651 | Also add information on how to contact you by electronic and paper mail.
652 |
653 | If the program does terminal interaction, make it output a short
654 | notice like this when it starts in an interactive mode:
655 |
656 | {project} Copyright (C) {year} {fullname}
657 | This program comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY; for details type `show w'.
658 | This is free software, and you are welcome to redistribute it
659 | under certain conditions; type `show c' for details.
660 |
661 | The hypothetical commands `show w' and `show c' should show the appropriate
662 | parts of the General Public License. Of course, your program's commands
663 | might be different; for a GUI interface, you would use an "about box".
664 |
665 | You should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer) or school,
666 | if any, to sign a "copyright disclaimer" for the program, if necessary.
667 | For more information on this, and how to apply and follow the GNU GPL, see
668 | .
669 |
670 | The GNU General Public License does not permit incorporating your program
671 | into proprietary programs. If your program is a subroutine library, you
672 | may consider it more useful to permit linking proprietary applications with
673 | the library. If this is what you want to do, use the GNU Lesser General
674 | Public License instead of this License. But first, please read
675 | .
