| 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 licenses for most software are designed to take away your |
| 12 | freedom to share and change it. By contrast, the GNU General Public |
| 13 | License is intended to guarantee your freedom to share and change free |
| 14 | software--to make sure the software is free for all its users. This |
| 15 | General Public License applies to most of the Free Software |
| 16 | Foundation's software and to any other program whose authors commit to |
| 17 | using it. (Some other Free Software Foundation software is covered by |
| 18 | the GNU Library General Public License instead.) You can apply it to |
| 19 | your programs, too. |
| 20 | |
| 21 | When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not |
| 22 | price. Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that you |
| 23 | have the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge for |
| 24 | this service if you wish), that you receive source code or can get it |
| 25 | if you want it, that you can change the software or use pieces of it |
| 26 | in new free programs; and that you know you can do these things. |
| 27 | |
| 28 | To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that forbid |
| 29 | anyone to deny you these rights or to ask you to surrender the rights. |
| 30 | These restrictions translate to certain responsibilities for you if you |
| 31 | distribute copies of the software, or if you modify it. |
| 32 | |
| 33 | For example, if you distribute copies of such a program, whether |
| 34 | gratis or for a fee, you must give the recipients all the rights that |
| 35 | you have. You must make sure that they, too, receive or can get the |
| 36 | source code. And you must show them these terms so they know their |
| 37 | rights. |
| 38 | |
| 39 | We protect your rights with two steps: (1) copyright the software, and |
| 40 | (2) offer you this license which gives you legal permission to copy, |
| 41 | distribute and/or modify the software. |
| 42 | |
| 43 | Also, for each author's protection and ours, we want to make certain |
| 44 | that everyone understands that there is no warranty for this free |
| 45 | software. If the software is modified by someone else and passed on, we |
| 46 | want its recipients to know that what they have is not the original, so |
| 47 | that any problems introduced by others will not reflect on the original |
| 48 | authors' reputations. |
| 49 | |
| 50 | Finally, any free program is threatened constantly by software |
| 51 | patents. We wish to avoid the danger that redistributors of a free |
| 52 | program will individually obtain patent licenses, in effect making the |
| 53 | program proprietary. To prevent this, we have made it clear that any |
| 54 | patent must be licensed for everyone's free use or not licensed at all. |
| 55 | |
| 56 | The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and |
| 57 | modification follow. |
| 58 | |
| 59 | GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE |
| 60 | TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION |
| 61 | |
| 62 | 0. This License applies to any program or other work which contains |
| 63 | a notice placed by the copyright holder saying it may be distributed |
| 64 | under the terms of this General Public License. The "Program", below, |
| 65 | refers to any such program or work, and a "work based on the Program" |
| 66 | means either the Program or any derivative work under copyright law: |
| 67 | that is to say, a work containing the Program or a portion of it, |
| 68 | either verbatim or with modifications and/or translated into another |
| 69 | language. (Hereinafter, translation is included without limitation in |
| 70 | the term "modification".) Each licensee is addressed as "you". |
| 71 | |
| 72 | Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are not |
| 73 | covered by this License; they are outside its scope. The act of |
| 74 | running the Program is not restricted, and the output from the Program |
| 75 | is covered only if its contents constitute a work based on the |
| 76 | Program (independent of having been made by running the Program). |
| 77 | Whether that is true depends on what the Program does. |
| 78 | |
| 79 | 1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Program's |
| 80 | source code as you receive it, in any medium, provided that you |
| 81 | conspicuously and appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate |
| 82 | copyright notice and disclaimer of warranty; keep intact all the |
| 83 | notices that refer to this License and to the absence of any warranty; |
| 84 | and give any other recipients of the Program a copy of this License |
| 85 | along with the Program. |
| 86 | |
| 87 | You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy, and |
| 88 | you may at your option offer warranty protection in exchange for a fee. |
| 89 | |
| 90 | 2. You may modify your copy or copies of the Program or any portion |
| 91 | of it, thus forming a work based on the Program, and copy and |
| 92 | distribute such modifications or work under the terms of Section 1 |
| 93 | above, provided that you also meet all of these conditions: |
| 94 | |
| 95 | a) You must cause the modified files to carry prominent notices |
| 96 | stating that you changed the files and the date of any change. |
| 97 | |
| 98 | b) You must cause any work that you distribute or publish, that in |
| 99 | whole or in part contains or is derived from the Program or any |
| 100 | part thereof, to be licensed as a whole at no charge to all third |
| 101 | parties under the terms of this License. |
| 102 | |
| 103 | c) If the modified program normally reads commands interactively |
| 104 | when run, you must cause it, when started running for such |
| 105 | interactive use in the most ordinary way, to print or display an |
| 106 | announcement including an appropriate copyright notice and a |
| 107 | notice that there is no warranty (or else, saying that you provide |
| 108 | a warranty) and that users may redistribute the program under |
| 109 | these conditions, and telling the user how to view a copy of this |
| 110 | License. (Exception: if the Program itself is interactive but |
| 111 | does not normally print such an announcement, your work based on |
| 112 | the Program is not required to print an announcement.) |
| 113 | |
| 114 | These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole. If |
| 115 | identifiable sections of that work are not derived from the Program, |
| 116 | and can be reasonably considered independent and separate works in |
| 117 | themselves, then this License, and its terms, do not apply to those |
| 118 | sections when you distribute them as separate works. But when you |
| 119 | distribute the same sections as part of a whole which is a work based |
| 120 | on the Program, the distribution of the whole must be on the terms of |
| 121 | this License, whose permissions for other licensees extend to the |
| 122 | entire whole, and thus to each and every part regardless of who wrote it. |
| 123 | |
| 124 | Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest |
| 125 | your rights to work written entirely by you; rather, the intent is to |
| 126 | exercise the right to control the distribution of derivative or |
| 127 | collective works based on the Program. |
| 128 | |
| 129 | In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the Program |
| 130 | with the Program (or with a work based on the Program) on a volume of |
| 131 | a storage or distribution medium does not bring the other work under |
| 132 | the scope of this License. |
| 133 | |
| 134 | 3. You may copy and distribute the Program (or a work based on it, |
| 135 | under Section 2) in object code or executable form under the terms of |
| 136 | Sections 1 and 2 above provided that you also do one of the following: |
| 137 | |
| 138 | a) Accompany it with the complete corresponding machine-readable |
| 139 | source code, which must be distributed under the terms of Sections |
| 140 | 1 and 2 above on a medium customarily used for software interchange; or, |
| 141 | |
| 142 | b) Accompany it with a written offer, valid for at least three |
| 143 | years, to give any third party, for a charge no more than your |
| 144 | cost of physically performing source distribution, a complete |
| 145 | machine-readable copy of the corresponding source code, to be |
| 146 | distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium |
| 147 | customarily used for software interchange; or, |
| 148 | |
| 149 | c) Accompany it with the information you received as to the offer |
| 150 | to distribute corresponding source code. (This alternative is |
| 151 | allowed only for noncommercial distribution and only if you |
| 152 | received the program in object code or executable form with such |
| 153 | an offer, in accord with Subsection b above.) |
| 154 | |
| 155 | The source code for a work means the preferred form of the work for |
| 156 | making modifications to it. For an executable work, complete source |
| 157 | code means all the source code for all modules it contains, plus any |
| 158 | associated interface definition files, plus the scripts used to |
| 159 | control compilation and installation of the executable. However, as a |
| 160 | special exception, the source code distributed need not include |
| 161 | anything that is normally distributed (in either source or binary |
| 162 | form) with the major components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of the |
| 163 | operating system on which the executable runs, unless that component |
| 164 | itself accompanies the executable. |
| 165 | |
| 166 | If distribution of executable or object code is made by offering |
| 167 | access to copy from a designated place, then offering equivalent |
| 168 | access to copy the source code from the same place counts as |
| 169 | distribution of the source code, even though third parties are not |
| 170 | compelled to copy the source along with the object code. |
| 171 | |
| 172 | 4. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the Program |
| 173 | except as expressly provided under this License. Any attempt |
| 174 | otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense or distribute the Program is |
| 175 | void, and will automatically terminate your rights under this License. |
| 176 | However, parties who have received copies, or rights, from you under |
| 177 | this License will not have their licenses terminated so long as such |
| 178 | parties remain in full compliance. |
| 179 | |
| 180 | 5. You are not required to accept this License, since you have not |
| 181 | signed it. However, nothing else grants you permission to modify or |
| 182 | distribute the Program or its derivative works. These actions are |
| 183 | prohibited by law if you do not accept this License. Therefore, by |
| 184 | modifying or distributing the Program (or any work based on the |
| 185 | Program), you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so, and |
| 186 | all its terms and conditions for copying, distributing or modifying |
| 187 | the Program or works based on it. |
| 188 | |
| 189 | 6. Each time you redistribute the Program (or any work based on the |
| 190 | Program), the recipient automatically receives a license from the |
| 191 | original licensor to copy, distribute or modify the Program subject to |
| 192 | these terms and conditions. You may not impose any further |
| 193 | restrictions on the recipients' exercise of the rights granted herein. |
| 194 | You are not responsible for enforcing compliance by third parties to |
| 195 | this License. |
| 196 | |
| 197 | 7. If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent |
| 198 | infringement or for any other reason (not limited to patent issues), |
| 199 | conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or |
| 200 | otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not |
| 201 | excuse you from the conditions of this License. If you cannot |
| 202 | distribute so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this |
| 203 | License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you |
| 204 | may not distribute the Program at all. For example, if a patent |
| 205 | license would not permit royalty-free redistribution of the Program by |
| 206 | all those who receive copies directly or indirectly through you, then |
| 207 | the only way you could satisfy both it and this License would be to |
| 208 | refrain entirely from distribution of the Program. |
| 209 | |
| 210 | If any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable under |
| 211 | any particular circumstance, the balance of the section is intended to |
| 212 | apply and the section as a whole is intended to apply in other |
| 213 | circumstances. |
| 214 | |
| 215 | It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe any |
| 216 | patents or other property right claims or to contest validity of any |
| 217 | such claims; this section has the sole purpose of protecting the |
| 218 | integrity of the free software distribution system, which is |
| 219 | implemented by public license practices. Many people have made |
| 220 | generous contributions to the wide range of software distributed |
| 221 | through that system in reliance on consistent application of that |
| 222 | system; it is up to the author/donor to decide if he or she is willing |
| 223 | to distribute software through any other system and a licensee cannot |
| 224 | impose that choice. |
| 225 | |
| 226 | This section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is believed to |
| 227 | be a consequence of the rest of this License. |
| 228 | |
| 229 | 8. If the distribution and/or use of the Program is restricted in |
| 230 | certain countries either by patents or by copyrighted interfaces, the |
| 231 | original copyright holder who places the Program under this License |
| 232 | may add an explicit geographical distribution limitation excluding |
| 233 | those countries, so that distribution is permitted only in or among |
| 234 | countries not thus excluded. In such case, this License incorporates |
| 235 | the limitation as if written in the body of this License. |
| 236 | |
| 237 | 9. The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions |
| 238 | of the General Public License from time to time. Such new versions will |
| 239 | be similar in spirit to the present version, but may differ in detail to |
| 240 | 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 of |
| 247 | this License, you may choose any version ever published by the Free Software |
| 248 | 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 sometimes |
| 254 | make exceptions for this. Our decision will be guided by the two goals |
| 255 | of preserving the free status of all derivatives of our free software and |
| 256 | of promoting the sharing and reuse of software generally. |
| 257 | |
| 258 | NO WARRANTY |
| 259 | |
| 260 | 11. BECAUSE THE PROGRAM IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE, THERE IS NO WARRANTY |
| 261 | FOR THE PROGRAM, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW. EXCEPT WHEN |
| 262 | OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER PARTIES |
| 263 | PROVIDE THE PROGRAM "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED |
| 264 | OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF |
| 265 | MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. THE ENTIRE RISK AS |
| 266 | TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE PROGRAM IS WITH YOU. SHOULD THE |
| 267 | PROGRAM PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE COST OF ALL NECESSARY SERVICING, |
| 268 | REPAIR OR CORRECTION. |
| 269 | |
| 270 | 12. IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN WRITING |
| 271 | WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MAY MODIFY AND/OR |
| 272 | REDISTRIBUTE THE PROGRAM AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES, |
| 273 | INCLUDING ANY GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING |
| 274 | OUT OF THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED |
| 275 | TO LOSS OF DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY |
| 276 | YOU OR THIRD PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF THE PROGRAM TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER |
| 277 | PROGRAMS), EVEN IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE |
| 278 | POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. |
| 279 | |
| 280 | END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS |
| 281 | |
| 282 | How to Apply These Terms to Your New Programs |
| 283 | |
| 284 | If you develop a new program, and you want it to be of the greatest |
| 285 | possible use to the public, the best way to achieve this is to make it |
| 286 | free software which everyone can redistribute and change under these terms. |
| 287 | |
| 288 | To do so, attach the following notices to the program. It is safest |
| 289 | to attach them to the start of each source file to most effectively |
| 290 | convey the exclusion of warranty; and each file should have at least |
| 291 | the "copyright" line and a pointer to where the full notice is found. |
| 292 | |
| 293 | <one line to give the program's name and a brief idea of what it does.> |
| 294 | Copyright (C) <year> <name of author> |
| 295 | |
| 296 | This program is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify |
| 297 | it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by |
| 298 | the Free Software Foundation; either version 2 of the License, or |
| 299 | (at your option) any later version. |
| 300 | |
| 301 | This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful, |
| 302 | but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of |
| 303 | MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. See the |
| 304 | GNU General Public License for more details. |
| 305 | |
| 306 | You should have received a copy of the GNU General Public License |
| 307 | along with this program; if not, write to the Free Software |
| 308 | Foundation, Inc., 59 Temple Place, Suite 330, Boston, MA 02111-1307 USA |
| 309 | |
| 310 | |
| 311 | Also add information on how to contact you by electronic and paper mail. |
| 312 | |
| 313 | If the program is interactive, make it output a short notice like this |
| 314 | when it starts in an interactive mode: |
| 315 | |
| 316 | Gnomovision version 69, Copyright (C) year name of author |
| 317 | Gnomovision comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY; for details type `show w'. |
| 318 | This is free software, and you are welcome to redistribute it |
| 319 | under certain conditions; type `show c' for details. |
| 320 | |
| 321 | The hypothetical commands `show w' and `show c' should show the appropriate |
| 322 | parts of the General Public License. Of course, the commands you use may |
| 323 | be called something other than `show w' and `show c'; they could even be |
| 324 | mouse-clicks or menu items--whatever suits your program. |
| 325 | |
| 326 | You should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer) or your |
| 327 | school, if any, to sign a "copyright disclaimer" for the program, if |
| 328 | necessary. Here is a sample; alter the names: |
| 329 | |
| 330 | Yoyodyne, Inc., hereby disclaims all copyright interest in the program |
| 331 | `Gnomovision' (which makes passes at compilers) written by James Hacker. |

| 335 | |
| 336 | This General Public License does not permit incorporating your program into |
| 337 | proprietary programs. If your program is a subroutine library, you may |
| 338 | consider it more useful to permit linking proprietary applications with the |
| 339 | library. If this is what you want to do, use the GNU Library General |
| 340 | Public License instead of this License. |
| 341 | GNU LESSER GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE |
| 342 | Version 2.1, February 1999 |
| 343 | |
| 344 | Copyright (C) 1991, 1999 Free Software Foundation, Inc. |
| 345 | 51 Franklin St, Fifth Floor, Boston, MA 02110-1301 USA |
| 346 | Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies |
| 347 | of this license document, but changing it is not allowed. |
| 348 | |
| 349 | [This is the first released version of the Lesser GPL. It also counts |
| 350 | as the successor of the GNU Library Public License, version 2, hence |
| 351 | the version number 2.1.] |
| 352 | |
| 353 | Preamble |
| 354 | |
| 355 | The licenses for most software are designed to take away your |
| 356 | freedom to share and change it. By contrast, the GNU General Public |
| 357 | Licenses are intended to guarantee your freedom to share and change |
| 358 | free software--to make sure the software is free for all its users. |
| 359 | |
| 360 | This license, the Lesser General Public License, applies to some |
| 361 | specially designated software packages--typically libraries--of the |
| 362 | Free Software Foundation and other authors who decide to use it. You |
| 363 | can use it too, but we suggest you first think carefully about whether |
| 364 | this license or the ordinary General Public License is the better |
| 365 | strategy to use in any particular case, based on the explanations below. |
| 366 | |
| 367 | When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom of use, |
| 368 | not price. Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that |
| 369 | you have the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge |
| 370 | for this service if you wish); that you receive source code or can get |
| 371 | it if you want it; that you can change the software and use pieces of |
| 372 | it in new free programs; and that you are informed that you can do |
| 373 | these things. |
| 374 | |
| 375 | To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that forbid |
| 376 | distributors to deny you these rights or to ask you to surrender these |
| 377 | rights. These restrictions translate to certain responsibilities for |
| 378 | you if you distribute copies of the library or if you modify it. |
| 379 | |
| 380 | For example, if you distribute copies of the library, whether gratis |
| 381 | or for a fee, you must give the recipients all the rights that we gave |
| 382 | you. You must make sure that they, too, receive or can get the source |
| 383 | code. If you link other code with the library, you must provide |
| 384 | complete object files to the recipients, so that they can relink them |
| 385 | with the library after making changes to the library and recompiling |
| 386 | it. And you must show them these terms so they know their rights. |
| 387 | |
| 388 | We protect your rights with a two-step method: (1) we copyright the |
| 389 | library, and (2) we offer you this license, which gives you legal |
| 390 | permission to copy, distribute and/or modify the library. |
| 391 | |
| 392 | To protect each distributor, we want to make it very clear that |
| 393 | there is no warranty for the free library. Also, if the library is |
| 394 | modified by someone else and passed on, the recipients should know |
| 395 | that what they have is not the original version, so that the original |
| 396 | author's reputation will not be affected by problems that might be |
| 397 | introduced by others. |
| 398 | |
| 399 | Finally, software patents pose a constant threat to the existence of |
| 400 | any free program. We wish to make sure that a company cannot |
| 401 | effectively restrict the users of a free program by obtaining a |
| 402 | restrictive license from a patent holder. Therefore, we insist that |
| 403 | any patent license obtained for a version of the library must be |
| 404 | consistent with the full freedom of use specified in this license. |
| 405 | |
| 406 | Most GNU software, including some libraries, is covered by the |
| 407 | ordinary GNU General Public License. This license, the GNU Lesser |
| 408 | General Public License, applies to certain designated libraries, and |
| 409 | is quite different from the ordinary General Public License. We use |
| 410 | this license for certain libraries in order to permit linking those |
| 411 | libraries into non-free programs. |
| 412 | |
| 413 | When a program is linked with a library, whether statically or using |
| 414 | a shared library, the combination of the two is legally speaking a |
| 415 | combined work, a derivative of the original library. The ordinary |
| 416 | General Public License therefore permits such linking only if the |
| 417 | entire combination fits its criteria of freedom. The Lesser General |
| 418 | Public License permits more lax criteria for linking other code with |
| 419 | the library. |
| 420 | |
| 421 | We call this license the "Lesser" General Public License because it |
| 422 | does Less to protect the user's freedom than the ordinary General |
| 423 | Public License. It also provides other free software developers Less |
| 424 | of an advantage over competing non-free programs. These disadvantages |
| 425 | are the reason we use the ordinary General Public License for many |
| 426 | libraries. However, the Lesser license provides advantages in certain |
| 427 | special circumstances. |
| 428 | |
| 429 | For example, on rare occasions, there may be a special need to |
| 430 | encourage the widest possible use of a certain library, so that it becomes |
| 431 | a de-facto standard. To achieve this, non-free programs must be |
| 432 | allowed to use the library. A more frequent case is that a free |
| 433 | library does the same job as widely used non-free libraries. In this |
| 434 | case, there is little to gain by limiting the free library to free |
| 435 | software only, so we use the Lesser General Public License. |
| 436 | |
| 437 | In other cases, permission to use a particular library in non-free |
| 438 | programs enables a greater number of people to use a large body of |
| 439 | free software. For example, permission to use the GNU C Library in |
| 440 | non-free programs enables many more people to use the whole GNU |
| 441 | operating system, as well as its variant, the GNU/Linux operating |
| 442 | system. |
| 443 | |
| 444 | Although the Lesser General Public License is Less protective of the |
| 445 | users' freedom, it does ensure that the user of a program that is |
| 446 | linked with the Library has the freedom and the wherewithal to run |
| 447 | that program using a modified version of the Library. |
| 448 | |
| 449 | The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and |
| 450 | modification follow. Pay close attention to the difference between a |
| 451 | "work based on the library" and a "work that uses the library". The |
| 452 | former contains code derived from the library, whereas the latter must |
| 453 | be combined with the library in order to run. |
| 454 | |
| 455 | GNU LESSER GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE |
| 456 | TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION |
| 457 | |
| 458 | 0. This License Agreement applies to any software library or other |
| 459 | program which contains a notice placed by the copyright holder or |
| 460 | other authorized party saying it may be distributed under the terms of |
| 461 | this Lesser General Public License (also called "this License"). |
| 462 | Each licensee is addressed as "you". |
| 463 | |
| 464 | A "library" means a collection of software functions and/or data |
| 465 | prepared so as to be conveniently linked with application programs |
| 466 | (which use some of those functions and data) to form executables. |
| 467 | |
| 468 | The "Library", below, refers to any such software library or work |
| 469 | which has been distributed under these terms. A "work based on the |
| 470 | Library" means either the Library or any derivative work under |
| 471 | copyright law: that is to say, a work containing the Library or a |
| 472 | portion of it, either verbatim or with modifications and/or translated |
| 473 | straightforwardly into another language. (Hereinafter, translation is |
| 474 | included without limitation in the term "modification".) |
| 475 | |
| 476 | "Source code" for a work means the preferred form of the work for |
| 477 | making modifications to it. For a library, complete source code means |
| 478 | all the source code for all modules it contains, plus any associated |
| 479 | interface definition files, plus the scripts used to control compilation |
| 480 | and installation of the library. |
| 481 | |
| 482 | Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are not |
| 483 | covered by this License; they are outside its scope. The act of |
| 484 | running a program using the Library is not restricted, and output from |
| 485 | such a program is covered only if its contents constitute a work based |
| 486 | on the Library (independent of the use of the Library in a tool for |
| 487 | writing it). Whether that is true depends on what the Library does |
| 488 | and what the program that uses the Library does. |
| 489 | |
| 490 | 1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Library's |
| 491 | complete source code as you receive it, in any medium, provided that |
| 492 | you conspicuously and appropriately publish on each copy an |
| 493 | appropriate copyright notice and disclaimer of warranty; keep intact |
| 494 | all the notices that refer to this License and to the absence of any |
| 495 | warranty; and distribute a copy of this License along with the |
| 496 | Library. |
| 497 | |
| 498 | You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy, |
| 499 | and you may at your option offer warranty protection in exchange for a |
| 500 | fee. |
| 501 | |
| 502 | 2. You may modify your copy or copies of the Library or any portion |
| 503 | of it, thus forming a work based on the Library, and copy and |
| 504 | distribute such modifications or work under the terms of Section 1 |
| 505 | above, provided that you also meet all of these conditions: |
| 506 | |
| 507 | a) The modified work must itself be a software library. |
| 508 | |
| 509 | b) You must cause the files modified to carry prominent notices |
| 510 | stating that you changed the files and the date of any change. |
| 511 | |
| 512 | c) You must cause the whole of the work to be licensed at no |
| 513 | charge to all third parties under the terms of this License. |
| 514 | |
| 515 | d) If a facility in the modified Library refers to a function or a |
| 516 | table of data to be supplied by an application program that uses |
| 517 | the facility, other than as an argument passed when the facility |
| 518 | is invoked, then you must make a good faith effort to ensure that, |
| 519 | in the event an application does not supply such function or |
| 520 | table, the facility still operates, and performs whatever part of |
| 521 | its purpose remains meaningful. |
| 522 | |
| 523 | (For example, a function in a library to compute square roots has |
| 524 | a purpose that is entirely well-defined independent of the |
| 525 | application. Therefore, Subsection 2d requires that any |
| 526 | application-supplied function or table used by this function must |
| 527 | be optional: if the application does not supply it, the square |
| 528 | root function must still compute square roots.) |
| 529 | |
| 530 | These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole. If |
| 531 | identifiable sections of that work are not derived from the Library, |
| 532 | and can be reasonably considered independent and separate works in |
| 533 | themselves, then this License, and its terms, do not apply to those |
| 534 | sections when you distribute them as separate works. But when you |
| 535 | distribute the same sections as part of a whole which is a work based |
| 536 | on the Library, the distribution of the whole must be on the terms of |
| 537 | this License, whose permissions for other licensees extend to the |
| 538 | entire whole, and thus to each and every part regardless of who wrote |
| 539 | it. |
| 540 | |
| 541 | Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest |
| 542 | your rights to work written entirely by you; rather, the intent is to |
| 543 | exercise the right to control the distribution of derivative or |
| 544 | collective works based on the Library. |
| 545 | |
| 546 | In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the Library |
| 547 | with the Library (or with a work based on the Library) on a volume of |
| 548 | a storage or distribution medium does not bring the other work under |
| 549 | the scope of this License. |
| 550 | |
| 551 | 3. You may opt to apply the terms of the ordinary GNU General Public |
| 552 | License instead of this License to a given copy of the Library. To do |
| 553 | this, you must alter all the notices that refer to this License, so |
| 554 | that they refer to the ordinary GNU General Public License, version 2, |
| 555 | instead of to this License. (If a newer version than version 2 of the |
| 556 | ordinary GNU General Public License has appeared, then you can specify |
| 557 | that version instead if you wish.) Do not make any other change in |
| 558 | these notices. |
| 559 | |
| 560 | Once this change is made in a given copy, it is irreversible for |
| 561 | that copy, so the ordinary GNU General Public License applies to all |
| 562 | subsequent copies and derivative works made from that copy. |
| 563 | |
| 564 | This option is useful when you wish to copy part of the code of |
| 565 | the Library into a program that is not a library. |
| 566 | |
| 567 | 4. You may copy and distribute the Library (or a portion or |
| 568 | derivative of it, under Section 2) in object code or executable form |
| 569 | under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above provided that you accompany |
| 570 | it with the complete corresponding machine-readable source code, which |
| 571 | must be distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a |
| 572 | medium customarily used for software interchange. |
| 573 | |
| 574 | If distribution of object code is made by offering access to copy |
| 575 | from a designated place, then offering equivalent access to copy the |
| 576 | source code from the same place satisfies the requirement to |
| 577 | distribute the source code, even though third parties are not |
| 578 | compelled to copy the source along with the object code. |
| 579 | |
| 580 | 5. A program that contains no derivative of any portion of the |
| 581 | Library, but is designed to work with the Library by being compiled or |
| 582 | linked with it, is called a "work that uses the Library". Such a |
| 583 | work, in isolation, is not a derivative work of the Library, and |
| 584 | therefore falls outside the scope of this License. |
| 585 | |
| 586 | However, linking a "work that uses the Library" with the Library |
| 587 | creates an executable that is a derivative of the Library (because it |
| 588 | contains portions of the Library), rather than a "work that uses the |
| 589 | library". The executable is therefore covered by this License. |
| 590 | Section 6 states terms for distribution of such executables. |
| 591 | |
| 592 | When a "work that uses the Library" uses material from a header file |
| 593 | that is part of the Library, the object code for the work may be a |
| 594 | derivative work of the Library even though the source code is not. |
| 595 | Whether this is true is especially significant if the work can be |
| 596 | linked without the Library, or if the work is itself a library. The |
| 597 | threshold for this to be true is not precisely defined by law. |
| 598 | |
| 599 | If such an object file uses only numerical parameters, data |
| 600 | structure layouts and accessors, and small macros and small inline |
| 601 | functions (ten lines or less in length), then the use of the object |
| 602 | file is unrestricted, regardless of whether it is legally a derivative |
| 603 | work. (Executables containing this object code plus portions of the |
| 604 | Library will still fall under Section 6.) |
| 605 | |
| 606 | Otherwise, if the work is a derivative of the Library, you may |
| 607 | distribute the object code for the work under the terms of Section 6. |
| 608 | Any executables containing that work also fall under Section 6, |
| 609 | whether or not they are linked directly with the Library itself. |
| 610 | |
| 611 | 6. As an exception to the Sections above, you may also combine or |
| 612 | link a "work that uses the Library" with the Library to produce a |
| 613 | work containing portions of the Library, and distribute that work |
| 614 | under terms of your choice, provided that the terms permit |
| 615 | modification of the work for the customer's own use and reverse |
| 616 | engineering for debugging such modifications. |
| 617 | |
| 618 | You must give prominent notice with each copy of the work that the |
| 619 | Library is used in it and that the Library and its use are covered by |
| 620 | this License. You must supply a copy of this License. If the work |
| 621 | during execution displays copyright notices, you must include the |
| 622 | copyright notice for the Library among them, as well as a reference |
| 623 | directing the user to the copy of this License. Also, you must do one |
| 624 | of these things: |
| 625 | |
| 626 | a) Accompany the work with the complete corresponding |
| 627 | machine-readable source code for the Library including whatever |
| 628 | changes were used in the work (which must be distributed under |
| 629 | Sections 1 and 2 above); and, if the work is an executable linked |
| 630 | with the Library, with the complete machine-readable "work that |
| 631 | uses the Library", as object code and/or source code, so that the |
| 632 | user can modify the Library and then relink to produce a modified |
| 633 | executable containing the modified Library. (It is understood |
| 634 | that the user who changes the contents of definitions files in the |
| 635 | Library will not necessarily be able to recompile the application |
| 636 | to use the modified definitions.) |
| 637 | |
| 638 | b) Use a suitable shared library mechanism for linking with the |
| 639 | Library. A suitable mechanism is one that (1) uses at run time a |
| 640 | copy of the library already present on the user's computer system, |
| 641 | rather than copying library functions into the executable, and (2) |
| 642 | will operate properly with a modified version of the library, if |
| 643 | the user installs one, as long as the modified version is |
| 644 | interface-compatible with the version that the work was made with. |
| 645 | |
| 646 | c) Accompany the work with a written offer, valid for at |
| 647 | least three years, to give the same user the materials |
| 648 | specified in Subsection 6a, above, for a charge no more |
| 649 | than the cost of performing this distribution. |
| 650 | |
| 651 | d) If distribution of the work is made by offering access to copy |
| 652 | from a designated place, offer equivalent access to copy the above |
| 653 | specified materials from the same place. |
| 654 | |
| 655 | e) Verify that the user has already received a copy of these |
| 656 | materials or that you have already sent this user a copy. |
| 657 | |
| 658 | For an executable, the required form of the "work that uses the |
| 659 | Library" must include any data and utility programs needed for |
| 660 | reproducing the executable from it. However, as a special exception, |
| 661 | the materials to be distributed need not include anything that is |
| 662 | normally distributed (in either source or binary form) with the major |
| 663 | components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of the operating system on |
| 664 | which the executable runs, unless that component itself accompanies |
| 665 | the executable. |
| 666 | |
| 667 | It may happen that this requirement contradicts the license |
| 668 | restrictions of other proprietary libraries that do not normally |
| 669 | accompany the operating system. Such a contradiction means you cannot |
| 670 | use both them and the Library together in an executable that you |
| 671 | distribute. |
| 672 | |
| 673 | 7. You may place library facilities that are a work based on the |
| 674 | Library side-by-side in a single library together with other library |
| 675 | facilities not covered by this License, and distribute such a combined |
| 676 | library, provided that the separate distribution of the work based on |
| 677 | the Library and of the other library facilities is otherwise |
| 678 | permitted, and provided that you do these two things: |
| 679 | |
| 680 | a) Accompany the combined library with a copy of the same work |
| 681 | based on the Library, uncombined with any other library |
| 682 | facilities. This must be distributed under the terms of the |
| 683 | Sections above. |
| 684 | |
| 685 | b) Give prominent notice with the combined library of the fact |
| 686 | that part of it is a work based on the Library, and explaining |
| 687 | where to find the accompanying uncombined form of the same work. |
| 688 | |
| 689 | 8. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, link with, or distribute |
| 690 | the Library except as expressly provided under this License. Any |
| 691 | attempt otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense, link with, or |
| 692 | distribute the Library is void, and will automatically terminate your |
| 693 | rights under this License. However, parties who have received copies, |
| 694 | or rights, from you under this License will not have their licenses |
| 695 | terminated so long as such parties remain in full compliance. |
| 696 | |
| 697 | 9. You are not required to accept this License, since you have not |
| 698 | signed it. However, nothing else grants you permission to modify or |
| 699 | distribute the Library or its derivative works. These actions are |
| 700 | prohibited by law if you do not accept this License. Therefore, by |
| 701 | modifying or distributing the Library (or any work based on the |
| 702 | Library), you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so, and |
| 703 | all its terms and conditions for copying, distributing or modifying |
| 704 | the Library or works based on it. |
| 705 | |
| 706 | 10. Each time you redistribute the Library (or any work based on the |
| 707 | Library), the recipient automatically receives a license from the |
| 708 | original licensor to copy, distribute, link with or modify the Library |
| 709 | subject to these terms and conditions. You may not impose any further |
| 710 | restrictions on the recipients' exercise of the rights granted herein. |
| 711 | You are not responsible for enforcing compliance by third parties with |
| 712 | this License. |
| 713 | |
| 714 | 11. If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent |
| 715 | infringement or for any other reason (not limited to patent issues), |
| 716 | conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or |
| 717 | otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not |
| 718 | excuse you from the conditions of this License. If you cannot |
| 719 | distribute so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this |
| 720 | License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you |
| 721 | may not distribute the Library at all. For example, if a patent |
| 722 | license would not permit royalty-free redistribution of the Library by |
| 723 | all those who receive copies directly or indirectly through you, then |
| 724 | the only way you could satisfy both it and this License would be to |
| 725 | refrain entirely from distribution of the Library. |
| 726 | |
| 727 | If any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable under any |
| 728 | particular circumstance, the balance of the section is intended to apply, |
| 729 | and the section as a whole is intended to apply in other circumstances. |
| 730 | |
| 731 | It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe any |
| 732 | patents or other property right claims or to contest validity of any |
| 733 | such claims; this section has the sole purpose of protecting the |
| 734 | integrity of the free software distribution system which is |
| 735 | implemented by public license practices. Many people have made |
| 736 | generous contributions to the wide range of software distributed |
| 737 | through that system in reliance on consistent application of that |
| 738 | system; it is up to the author/donor to decide if he or she is willing |
| 739 | to distribute software through any other system and a licensee cannot |
| 740 | impose that choice. |
| 741 | |
| 742 | This section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is believed to |
| 743 | be a consequence of the rest of this License. |
| 744 | |
| 745 | 12. If the distribution and/or use of the Library is restricted in |
| 746 | certain countries either by patents or by copyrighted interfaces, the |
| 747 | original copyright holder who places the Library under this License may add |
| 748 | an explicit geographical distribution limitation excluding those countries, |
| 749 | so that distribution is permitted only in or among countries not thus |
| 750 | excluded. In such case, this License incorporates the limitation as if |
| 751 | written in the body of this License. |
| 752 | |
| 753 | 13. The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new |
| 754 | versions of the Lesser General Public License from time to time. |
| 755 | Such new versions will be similar in spirit to the present version, |
| 756 | but may differ in detail to address new problems or concerns. |
| 757 | |
| 758 | Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the Library |
| 759 | specifies a version number of this License which applies to it and |
| 760 | "any later version", you have the option of following the terms and |
| 761 | conditions either of that version or of any later version published by |
| 762 | the Free Software Foundation. If the Library does not specify a |
| 763 | license version number, you may choose any version ever published by |
| 764 | the Free Software Foundation. |
| 765 | |
| 766 | 14. If you wish to incorporate parts of the Library into other free |
| 767 | programs whose distribution conditions are incompatible with these, |
| 768 | write to the author to ask for permission. For software which is |
| 769 | copyrighted by the Free Software Foundation, write to the Free |
| 770 | Software Foundation; we sometimes make exceptions for this. Our |
| 771 | decision will be guided by the two goals of preserving the free status |
| 772 | of all derivatives of our free software and of promoting the sharing |
| 773 | and reuse of software generally. |
| 774 | |
| 775 | NO WARRANTY |
| 776 | |
| 777 | 15. BECAUSE THE LIBRARY IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE, THERE IS NO |
| 778 | WARRANTY FOR THE LIBRARY, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW. |
| 779 | EXCEPT WHEN OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS AND/OR |
| 780 | OTHER PARTIES PROVIDE THE LIBRARY "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY |
| 781 | KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE |
| 782 | IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR |
| 783 | PURPOSE. THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE |
| 784 | LIBRARY IS WITH YOU. SHOULD THE LIBRARY PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME |
| 785 | THE COST OF ALL NECESSARY SERVICING, REPAIR OR CORRECTION. |
| 786 | |
| 787 | 16. IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN |
| 788 | WRITING WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MAY MODIFY |
| 789 | AND/OR REDISTRIBUTE THE LIBRARY AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU |
| 790 | FOR DAMAGES, INCLUDING ANY GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR |
| 791 | CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE |
| 792 | LIBRARY (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF DATA OR DATA BEING |
| 793 | RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY YOU OR THIRD PARTIES OR A |
| 794 | FAILURE OF THE LIBRARY TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER SOFTWARE), EVEN IF |
| 795 | SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH |
| 796 | DAMAGES. |
| 797 | |
| 798 | END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS |
| 799 | |
| 800 | How to Apply These Terms to Your New Libraries |
| 801 | |
| 802 | If you develop a new library, and you want it to be of the greatest |
| 803 | possible use to the public, we recommend making it free software that |
| 804 | everyone can redistribute and change. You can do so by permitting |
| 805 | redistribution under these terms (or, alternatively, under the terms of the |
| 806 | ordinary General Public License). |
| 807 | |
| 808 | To apply these terms, attach the following notices to the library. It is |
| 809 | safest to attach them to the start of each source file to most effectively |
| 810 | convey the exclusion of warranty; and each file should have at least the |
| 811 | "copyright" line and a pointer to where the full notice is found. |
| 812 | |
| 813 | <one line to give the library's name and a brief idea of what it does.> |
| 814 | Copyright (C) <year> <name of author> |
| 815 | |
| 816 | This library is free software; you can redistribute it and/or |
| 817 | modify it under the terms of the GNU Lesser General Public |
| 818 | License as published by the Free Software Foundation; either |
| 819 | version 2.1 of the License, or (at your option) any later version. |
| 820 | |
| 821 | This library is distributed in the hope that it will be useful, |
| 822 | but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of |
| 823 | MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. See the GNU |
| 824 | Lesser General Public License for more details. |
| 825 | |
| 826 | You should have received a copy of the GNU Lesser General Public |
| 827 | License along with this library; if not, write to the Free Software |
| 828 | Foundation, Inc., 51 Franklin St, Fifth Floor, Boston, MA 02110-1301 USA |
| 829 | |
| 830 | Also add information on how to contact you by electronic and paper mail. |
| 831 | |
| 832 | You should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer) or your |
| 833 | school, if any, to sign a "copyright disclaimer" for the library, if |
| 834 | necessary. Here is a sample; alter the names: |
| 835 | |

| 853 | [This is the first released version of the Lesser GPL. It also counts |
| 854 | as the successor of the GNU Library Public License, version 2, hence |
| 855 | the version number 2.1.] |
| 856 | |
| 857 | Preamble |
| 858 | |
| 859 | The licenses for most software are designed to take away your |
| 860 | freedom to share and change it. By contrast, the GNU General Public |
| 861 | Licenses are intended to guarantee your freedom to share and change |
| 862 | free software--to make sure the software is free for all its users. |
| 863 | |
| 864 | This license, the Lesser General Public License, applies to some |
| 865 | specially designated software packages--typically libraries--of the |
| 866 | Free Software Foundation and other authors who decide to use it. You |
| 867 | can use it too, but we suggest you first think carefully about whether |
| 868 | this license or the ordinary General Public License is the better |
| 869 | strategy to use in any particular case, based on the explanations below. |
| 870 | |
| 871 | When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom of use, |
| 872 | not price. Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that |
| 873 | you have the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge |
| 874 | for this service if you wish); that you receive source code or can get |
| 875 | it if you want it; that you can change the software and use pieces of |
| 876 | it in new free programs; and that you are informed that you can do |
| 877 | these things. |
| 878 | |
| 879 | To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that forbid |
| 880 | distributors to deny you these rights or to ask you to surrender these |
| 881 | rights. These restrictions translate to certain responsibilities for |
| 882 | you if you distribute copies of the library or if you modify it. |
| 883 | |
| 884 | For example, if you distribute copies of the library, whether gratis |
| 885 | or for a fee, you must give the recipients all the rights that we gave |
| 886 | you. You must make sure that they, too, receive or can get the source |
| 887 | code. If you link other code with the library, you must provide |
| 888 | complete object files to the recipients, so that they can relink them |
| 889 | with the library after making changes to the library and recompiling |
| 890 | it. And you must show them these terms so they know their rights. |
| 891 | |
| 892 | We protect your rights with a two-step method: (1) we copyright the |
| 893 | library, and (2) we offer you this license, which gives you legal |
| 894 | permission to copy, distribute and/or modify the library. |
| 895 | |
| 896 | To protect each distributor, we want to make it very clear that |
| 897 | there is no warranty for the free library. Also, if the library is |
| 898 | modified by someone else and passed on, the recipients should know |
| 899 | that what they have is not the original version, so that the original |
| 900 | author's reputation will not be affected by problems that might be |
| 901 | introduced by others. |
| 902 | |
| 903 | Finally, software patents pose a constant threat to the existence of |
| 904 | any free program. We wish to make sure that a company cannot |
| 905 | effectively restrict the users of a free program by obtaining a |
| 906 | restrictive license from a patent holder. Therefore, we insist that |
| 907 | any patent license obtained for a version of the library must be |
| 908 | consistent with the full freedom of use specified in this license. |
| 909 | |
| 910 | Most GNU software, including some libraries, is covered by the |
| 911 | ordinary GNU General Public License. This license, the GNU Lesser |
| 912 | General Public License, applies to certain designated libraries, and |
| 913 | is quite different from the ordinary General Public License. We use |
| 914 | this license for certain libraries in order to permit linking those |
| 915 | libraries into non-free programs. |
| 916 | |
| 917 | When a program is linked with a library, whether statically or using |
| 918 | a shared library, the combination of the two is legally speaking a |
| 919 | combined work, a derivative of the original library. The ordinary |
| 920 | General Public License therefore permits such linking only if the |
| 921 | entire combination fits its criteria of freedom. The Lesser General |
| 922 | Public License permits more lax criteria for linking other code with |
| 923 | the library. |
| 924 | |
| 925 | We call this license the "Lesser" General Public License because it |
| 926 | does Less to protect the user's freedom than the ordinary General |
| 927 | Public License. It also provides other free software developers Less |
| 928 | of an advantage over competing non-free programs. These disadvantages |
| 929 | are the reason we use the ordinary General Public License for many |
| 930 | libraries. However, the Lesser license provides advantages in certain |
| 931 | special circumstances. |
| 932 | |
| 933 | For example, on rare occasions, there may be a special need to |
| 934 | encourage the widest possible use of a certain library, so that it becomes |
| 935 | a de-facto standard. To achieve this, non-free programs must be |
| 936 | allowed to use the library. A more frequent case is that a free |
| 937 | library does the same job as widely used non-free libraries. In this |
| 938 | case, there is little to gain by limiting the free library to free |
| 939 | software only, so we use the Lesser General Public License. |
| 940 | |
| 941 | In other cases, permission to use a particular library in non-free |
| 942 | programs enables a greater number of people to use a large body of |
| 943 | free software. For example, permission to use the GNU C Library in |
| 944 | non-free programs enables many more people to use the whole GNU |
| 945 | operating system, as well as its variant, the GNU/Linux operating |
| 946 | system. |
| 947 | |
| 948 | Although the Lesser General Public License is Less protective of the |
| 949 | users' freedom, it does ensure that the user of a program that is |
| 950 | linked with the Library has the freedom and the wherewithal to run |
| 951 | that program using a modified version of the Library. |
| 952 | |
| 953 | The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and |
| 954 | modification follow. Pay close attention to the difference between a |
| 955 | "work based on the library" and a "work that uses the library". The |
| 956 | former contains code derived from the library, whereas the latter must |
| 957 | be combined with the library in order to run. |
| 958 | |
| 959 | GNU LESSER GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE |
| 960 | TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION |
| 961 | |
| 962 | 0. This License Agreement applies to any software library or other |
| 963 | program which contains a notice placed by the copyright holder or |
| 964 | other authorized party saying it may be distributed under the terms of |
| 965 | this Lesser General Public License (also called "this License"). |
| 966 | Each licensee is addressed as "you". |
| 967 | |
| 968 | A "library" means a collection of software functions and/or data |
| 969 | prepared so as to be conveniently linked with application programs |
| 970 | (which use some of those functions and data) to form executables. |
| 971 | |
| 972 | The "Library", below, refers to any such software library or work |
| 973 | which has been distributed under these terms. A "work based on the |
| 974 | Library" means either the Library or any derivative work under |
| 975 | copyright law: that is to say, a work containing the Library or a |
| 976 | portion of it, either verbatim or with modifications and/or translated |
| 977 | straightforwardly into another language. (Hereinafter, translation is |
| 978 | included without limitation in the term "modification".) |
| 979 | |
| 980 | "Source code" for a work means the preferred form of the work for |
| 981 | making modifications to it. For a library, complete source code means |
| 982 | all the source code for all modules it contains, plus any associated |
| 983 | interface definition files, plus the scripts used to control compilation |
| 984 | and installation of the library. |
| 985 | |
| 986 | Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are not |
| 987 | covered by this License; they are outside its scope. The act of |
| 988 | running a program using the Library is not restricted, and output from |
| 989 | such a program is covered only if its contents constitute a work based |
| 990 | on the Library (independent of the use of the Library in a tool for |
| 991 | writing it). Whether that is true depends on what the Library does |
| 992 | and what the program that uses the Library does. |
| 993 | |
| 994 | 1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Library's |
| 995 | complete source code as you receive it, in any medium, provided that |
| 996 | you conspicuously and appropriately publish on each copy an |
| 997 | appropriate copyright notice and disclaimer of warranty; keep intact |
| 998 | all the notices that refer to this License and to the absence of any |
| 999 | warranty; and distribute a copy of this License along with the |
| 1000 | Library. |
| 1001 | |
| 1002 | You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy, |
| 1003 | and you may at your option offer warranty protection in exchange for a |
| 1004 | fee. |
| 1005 | |
| 1006 | 2. You may modify your copy or copies of the Library or any portion |
| 1007 | of it, thus forming a work based on the Library, and copy and |
| 1008 | distribute such modifications or work under the terms of Section 1 |
| 1009 | above, provided that you also meet all of these conditions: |
| 1010 | |
| 1011 | a) The modified work must itself be a software library. |
| 1012 | |
| 1013 | b) You must cause the files modified to carry prominent notices |
| 1014 | stating that you changed the files and the date of any change. |
| 1015 | |
| 1016 | c) You must cause the whole of the work to be licensed at no |
| 1017 | charge to all third parties under the terms of this License. |
| 1018 | |
| 1019 | d) If a facility in the modified Library refers to a function or a |
| 1020 | table of data to be supplied by an application program that uses |
| 1021 | the facility, other than as an argument passed when the facility |
| 1022 | is invoked, then you must make a good faith effort to ensure that, |
| 1023 | in the event an application does not supply such function or |
| 1024 | table, the facility still operates, and performs whatever part of |
| 1025 | its purpose remains meaningful. |
| 1026 | |
| 1027 | (For example, a function in a library to compute square roots has |
| 1028 | a purpose that is entirely well-defined independent of the |
| 1029 | application. Therefore, Subsection 2d requires that any |
| 1030 | application-supplied function or table used by this function must |
| 1031 | be optional: if the application does not supply it, the square |
| 1032 | root function must still compute square roots.) |
| 1033 | |
| 1034 | These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole. If |
| 1035 | identifiable sections of that work are not derived from the Library, |
| 1036 | and can be reasonably considered independent and separate works in |
| 1037 | themselves, then this License, and its terms, do not apply to those |
| 1038 | sections when you distribute them as separate works. But when you |
| 1039 | distribute the same sections as part of a whole which is a work based |
| 1040 | on the Library, the distribution of the whole must be on the terms of |
| 1041 | this License, whose permissions for other licensees extend to the |
| 1042 | entire whole, and thus to each and every part regardless of who wrote |
| 1043 | it. |
| 1044 | |
| 1045 | Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest |
| 1046 | your rights to work written entirely by you; rather, the intent is to |
| 1047 | exercise the right to control the distribution of derivative or |
| 1048 | collective works based on the Library. |
| 1049 | |
| 1050 | In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the Library |
| 1051 | with the Library (or with a work based on the Library) on a volume of |
| 1052 | a storage or distribution medium does not bring the other work under |
| 1053 | the scope of this License. |
| 1054 | |
| 1055 | 3. You may opt to apply the terms of the ordinary GNU General Public |
| 1056 | License instead of this License to a given copy of the Library. To do |
| 1057 | this, you must alter all the notices that refer to this License, so |
| 1058 | that they refer to the ordinary GNU General Public License, version 2, |
| 1059 | instead of to this License. (If a newer version than version 2 of the |
| 1060 | ordinary GNU General Public License has appeared, then you can specify |
| 1061 | that version instead if you wish.) Do not make any other change in |
| 1062 | these notices. |
| 1063 | |
| 1064 | Once this change is made in a given copy, it is irreversible for |
| 1065 | that copy, so the ordinary GNU General Public License applies to all |
| 1066 | subsequent copies and derivative works made from that copy. |
| 1067 | |
| 1068 | This option is useful when you wish to copy part of the code of |
| 1069 | the Library into a program that is not a library. |
| 1070 | |
| 1071 | 4. You may copy and distribute the Library (or a portion or |
| 1072 | derivative of it, under Section 2) in object code or executable form |
| 1073 | under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above provided that you accompany |
| 1074 | it with the complete corresponding machine-readable source code, which |
| 1075 | must be distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a |
| 1076 | medium customarily used for software interchange. |
| 1077 | |
| 1078 | If distribution of object code is made by offering access to copy |
| 1079 | from a designated place, then offering equivalent access to copy the |
| 1080 | source code from the same place satisfies the requirement to |
| 1081 | distribute the source code, even though third parties are not |
| 1082 | compelled to copy the source along with the object code. |
| 1083 | |
| 1084 | 5. A program that contains no derivative of any portion of the |
| 1085 | Library, but is designed to work with the Library by being compiled or |
| 1086 | linked with it, is called a "work that uses the Library". Such a |
| 1087 | work, in isolation, is not a derivative work of the Library, and |
| 1088 | therefore falls outside the scope of this License. |
| 1089 | |
| 1090 | However, linking a "work that uses the Library" with the Library |
| 1091 | creates an executable that is a derivative of the Library (because it |
| 1092 | contains portions of the Library), rather than a "work that uses the |
| 1093 | library". The executable is therefore covered by this License. |
| 1094 | Section 6 states terms for distribution of such executables. |
| 1095 | |
| 1096 | When a "work that uses the Library" uses material from a header file |
| 1097 | that is part of the Library, the object code for the work may be a |
| 1098 | derivative work of the Library even though the source code is not. |
| 1099 | Whether this is true is especially significant if the work can be |
| 1100 | linked without the Library, or if the work is itself a library. The |
| 1101 | threshold for this to be true is not precisely defined by law. |
| 1102 | |
| 1103 | If such an object file uses only numerical parameters, data |
| 1104 | structure layouts and accessors, and small macros and small inline |
| 1105 | functions (ten lines or less in length), then the use of the object |
| 1106 | file is unrestricted, regardless of whether it is legally a derivative |
| 1107 | work. (Executables containing this object code plus portions of the |
| 1108 | Library will still fall under Section 6.) |
| 1109 | |
| 1110 | Otherwise, if the work is a derivative of the Library, you may |
| 1111 | distribute the object code for the work under the terms of Section 6. |
| 1112 | Any executables containing that work also fall under Section 6, |
| 1113 | whether or not they are linked directly with the Library itself. |
| 1114 | |
| 1115 | 6. As an exception to the Sections above, you may also combine or |
| 1116 | link a "work that uses the Library" with the Library to produce a |
| 1117 | work containing portions of the Library, and distribute that work |
| 1118 | under terms of your choice, provided that the terms permit |
| 1119 | modification of the work for the customer's own use and reverse |
| 1120 | engineering for debugging such modifications. |
| 1121 | |
| 1122 | You must give prominent notice with each copy of the work that the |
| 1123 | Library is used in it and that the Library and its use are covered by |
| 1124 | this License. You must supply a copy of this License. If the work |
| 1125 | during execution displays copyright notices, you must include the |
| 1126 | copyright notice for the Library among them, as well as a reference |
| 1127 | directing the user to the copy of this License. Also, you must do one |
| 1128 | of these things: |
| 1129 | |
| 1130 | a) Accompany the work with the complete corresponding |
| 1131 | machine-readable source code for the Library including whatever |
| 1132 | changes were used in the work (which must be distributed under |
| 1133 | Sections 1 and 2 above); and, if the work is an executable linked |
| 1134 | with the Library, with the complete machine-readable "work that |
| 1135 | uses the Library", as object code and/or source code, so that the |
| 1136 | user can modify the Library and then relink to produce a modified |
| 1137 | executable containing the modified Library. (It is understood |
| 1138 | that the user who changes the contents of definitions files in the |
| 1139 | Library will not necessarily be able to recompile the application |
| 1140 | to use the modified definitions.) |
| 1141 | |
| 1142 | b) Use a suitable shared library mechanism for linking with the |
| 1143 | Library. A suitable mechanism is one that (1) uses at run time a |
| 1144 | copy of the library already present on the user's computer system, |
| 1145 | rather than copying library functions into the executable, and (2) |
| 1146 | will operate properly with a modified version of the library, if |
| 1147 | the user installs one, as long as the modified version is |
| 1148 | interface-compatible with the version that the work was made with. |
| 1149 | |
| 1150 | c) Accompany the work with a written offer, valid for at |
| 1151 | least three years, to give the same user the materials |
| 1152 | specified in Subsection 6a, above, for a charge no more |
| 1153 | than the cost of performing this distribution. |
| 1154 | |
| 1155 | d) If distribution of the work is made by offering access to copy |
| 1156 | from a designated place, offer equivalent access to copy the above |
| 1157 | specified materials from the same place. |
| 1158 | |
| 1159 | e) Verify that the user has already received a copy of these |
| 1160 | materials or that you have already sent this user a copy. |
| 1161 | |
| 1162 | For an executable, the required form of the "work that uses the |
| 1163 | Library" must include any data and utility programs needed for |
| 1164 | reproducing the executable from it. However, as a special exception, |
| 1165 | the materials to be distributed need not include anything that is |
| 1166 | normally distributed (in either source or binary form) with the major |
| 1167 | components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of the operating system on |
| 1168 | which the executable runs, unless that component itself accompanies |
| 1169 | the executable. |
| 1170 | |
| 1171 | It may happen that this requirement contradicts the license |
| 1172 | restrictions of other proprietary libraries that do not normally |
| 1173 | accompany the operating system. Such a contradiction means you cannot |
| 1174 | use both them and the Library together in an executable that you |
| 1175 | distribute. |
| 1176 | |
| 1177 | 7. You may place library facilities that are a work based on the |
| 1178 | Library side-by-side in a single library together with other library |
| 1179 | facilities not covered by this License, and distribute such a combined |
| 1180 | library, provided that the separate distribution of the work based on |
| 1181 | the Library and of the other library facilities is otherwise |
| 1182 | permitted, and provided that you do these two things: |
| 1183 | |
| 1184 | a) Accompany the combined library with a copy of the same work |
| 1185 | based on the Library, uncombined with any other library |
| 1186 | facilities. This must be distributed under the terms of the |
| 1187 | Sections above. |
| 1188 | |
| 1189 | b) Give prominent notice with the combined library of the fact |
| 1190 | that part of it is a work based on the Library, and explaining |
| 1191 | where to find the accompanying uncombined form of the same work. |
| 1192 | |
| 1193 | 8. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, link with, or distribute |
| 1194 | the Library except as expressly provided under this License. Any |
| 1195 | attempt otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense, link with, or |
| 1196 | distribute the Library is void, and will automatically terminate your |
| 1197 | rights under this License. However, parties who have received copies, |
| 1198 | or rights, from you under this License will not have their licenses |
| 1199 | terminated so long as such parties remain in full compliance. |
| 1200 | |
| 1201 | 9. You are not required to accept this License, since you have not |
| 1202 | signed it. However, nothing else grants you permission to modify or |
| 1203 | distribute the Library or its derivative works. These actions are |
| 1204 | prohibited by law if you do not accept this License. Therefore, by |
| 1205 | modifying or distributing the Library (or any work based on the |
| 1206 | Library), you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so, and |
| 1207 | all its terms and conditions for copying, distributing or modifying |
| 1208 | the Library or works based on it. |
| 1209 | |
| 1210 | 10. Each time you redistribute the Library (or any work based on the |
| 1211 | Library), the recipient automatically receives a license from the |
| 1212 | original licensor to copy, distribute, link with or modify the Library |
| 1213 | subject to these terms and conditions. You may not impose any further |
| 1214 | restrictions on the recipients' exercise of the rights granted herein. |
| 1215 | You are not responsible for enforcing compliance by third parties with |
| 1216 | this License. |
| 1217 | |
| 1218 | 11. If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent |
| 1219 | infringement or for any other reason (not limited to patent issues), |
| 1220 | conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or |
| 1221 | otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not |
| 1222 | excuse you from the conditions of this License. If you cannot |
| 1223 | distribute so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this |
| 1224 | License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you |
| 1225 | may not distribute the Library at all. For example, if a patent |
| 1226 | license would not permit royalty-free redistribution of the Library by |
| 1227 | all those who receive copies directly or indirectly through you, then |
| 1228 | the only way you could satisfy both it and this License would be to |
| 1229 | refrain entirely from distribution of the Library. |
| 1230 | |
| 1231 | If any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable under any |
| 1232 | particular circumstance, the balance of the section is intended to apply, |
| 1233 | and the section as a whole is intended to apply in other circumstances. |
| 1234 | |
| 1235 | It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe any |
| 1236 | patents or other property right claims or to contest validity of any |
| 1237 | such claims; this section has the sole purpose of protecting the |
| 1238 | integrity of the free software distribution system which is |
| 1239 | implemented by public license practices. Many people have made |
| 1240 | generous contributions to the wide range of software distributed |
| 1241 | through that system in reliance on consistent application of that |
| 1242 | system; it is up to the author/donor to decide if he or she is willing |
| 1243 | to distribute software through any other system and a licensee cannot |
| 1244 | impose that choice. |
| 1245 | |
| 1246 | This section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is believed to |
| 1247 | be a consequence of the rest of this License. |
| 1248 | |
| 1249 | 12. If the distribution and/or use of the Library is restricted in |
| 1250 | certain countries either by patents or by copyrighted interfaces, the |
| 1251 | original copyright holder who places the Library under this License may add |
| 1252 | an explicit geographical distribution limitation excluding those countries, |
| 1253 | so that distribution is permitted only in or among countries not thus |
| 1254 | excluded. In such case, this License incorporates the limitation as if |
| 1255 | written in the body of this License. |
| 1256 | |
| 1257 | 13. The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new |
| 1258 | versions of the Lesser General Public License from time to time. |
| 1259 | Such new versions will be similar in spirit to the present version, |
| 1260 | but may differ in detail to address new problems or concerns. |
| 1261 | |
| 1262 | Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the Library |
| 1263 | specifies a version number of this License which applies to it and |
| 1264 | "any later version", you have the option of following the terms and |
| 1265 | conditions either of that version or of any later version published by |
| 1266 | the Free Software Foundation. If the Library does not specify a |
| 1267 | license version number, you may choose any version ever published by |
| 1268 | the Free Software Foundation. |
| 1269 | |
| 1270 | 14. If you wish to incorporate parts of the Library into other free |
| 1271 | programs whose distribution conditions are incompatible with these, |
| 1272 | write to the author to ask for permission. For software which is |
| 1273 | copyrighted by the Free Software Foundation, write to the Free |
| 1274 | Software Foundation; we sometimes make exceptions for this. Our |
| 1275 | decision will be guided by the two goals of preserving the free status |
| 1276 | of all derivatives of our free software and of promoting the sharing |
| 1277 | and reuse of software generally. |
| 1278 | |
| 1279 | NO WARRANTY |
| 1280 | |
| 1281 | 15. BECAUSE THE LIBRARY IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE, THERE IS NO |
| 1282 | WARRANTY FOR THE LIBRARY, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW. |
| 1283 | EXCEPT WHEN OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS AND/OR |
| 1284 | OTHER PARTIES PROVIDE THE LIBRARY "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY |
| 1285 | KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE |
| 1286 | IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR |
| 1287 | PURPOSE. THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE |
| 1288 | LIBRARY IS WITH YOU. SHOULD THE LIBRARY PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME |
| 1289 | THE COST OF ALL NECESSARY SERVICING, REPAIR OR CORRECTION. |
| 1290 | |
| 1291 | 16. IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN |
| 1292 | WRITING WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MAY MODIFY |
| 1293 | AND/OR REDISTRIBUTE THE LIBRARY AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU |
| 1294 | FOR DAMAGES, INCLUDING ANY GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR |
| 1295 | CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE |
| 1296 | LIBRARY (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF DATA OR DATA BEING |
| 1297 | RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY YOU OR THIRD PARTIES OR A |
| 1298 | FAILURE OF THE LIBRARY TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER SOFTWARE), EVEN IF |
| 1299 | SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH |
| 1300 | DAMAGES. |
| 1301 | |
| 1302 | END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS |
| 1303 | |
| 1304 | How to Apply These Terms to Your New Libraries |
| 1305 | |
| 1306 | If you develop a new library, and you want it to be of the greatest |
| 1307 | possible use to the public, we recommend making it free software that |
| 1308 | everyone can redistribute and change. You can do so by permitting |
| 1309 | redistribution under these terms (or, alternatively, under the terms of the |
| 1310 | ordinary General Public License). |
| 1311 | |
| 1312 | To apply these terms, attach the following notices to the library. It is |
| 1313 | safest to attach them to the start of each source file to most effectively |
| 1314 | convey the exclusion of warranty; and each file should have at least the |
| 1315 | "copyright" line and a pointer to where the full notice is found. |
| 1316 | |
| 1317 | <one line to give the library's name and a brief idea of what it does.> |
| 1318 | Copyright (C) <year> <name of author> |
| 1319 | |
| 1320 | This library is free software; you can redistribute it and/or |
| 1321 | modify it under the terms of the GNU Lesser General Public |
| 1322 | License as published by the Free Software Foundation; either |
| 1323 | version 2.1 of the License, or (at your option) any later version. |
| 1324 | |
| 1325 | This library is distributed in the hope that it will be useful, |
| 1326 | but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of |
| 1327 | MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. See the GNU |
| 1328 | Lesser General Public License for more details. |
| 1329 | |
| 1330 | You should have received a copy of the GNU Lesser General Public |
| 1331 | License along with this library; if not, write to the Free Software |
| 1332 | Foundation, Inc., 51 Franklin St, Fifth Floor, Boston, MA 02110-1301 USA |
| 1333 | |
| 1334 | Also add information on how to contact you by electronic and paper mail. |
| 1335 | |
| 1336 | You should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer) or your |
| 1337 | school, if any, to sign a "copyright disclaimer" for the library, if |
| 1338 | necessary. Here is a sample; alter the names: |

| 1349 | GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE |
| 1350 | Version 2, June 1991 |
| 1351 | |
| 1352 | Copyright (C) 1989, 1991 Free Software Foundation, Inc. |
| 1353 | 59 Temple Place, Suite 330, Boston, MA 02111-1307 USA |
| 1354 | Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies |
| 1355 | of this license document, but changing it is not allowed. |
| 1356 | |
| 1357 | Preamble |
| 1358 | |
| 1359 | The licenses for most software are designed to take away your |
| 1360 | freedom to share and change it. By contrast, the GNU General Public |
| 1361 | License is intended to guarantee your freedom to share and change free |
| 1362 | software--to make sure the software is free for all its users. This |
| 1363 | General Public License applies to most of the Free Software |
| 1364 | Foundation's software and to any other program whose authors commit to |
| 1365 | using it. (Some other Free Software Foundation software is covered by |
| 1366 | the GNU Library General Public License instead.) You can apply it to |
| 1367 | your programs, too. |
| 1368 | |
| 1369 | When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not |
| 1370 | price. Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that you |
| 1371 | have the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge for |
| 1372 | this service if you wish), that you receive source code or can get it |
| 1373 | if you want it, that you can change the software or use pieces of it |
| 1374 | in new free programs; and that you know you can do these things. |
| 1375 | |
| 1376 | To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that forbid |
| 1377 | anyone to deny you these rights or to ask you to surrender the rights. |
| 1378 | These restrictions translate to certain responsibilities for you if you |
| 1379 | distribute copies of the software, or if you modify it. |
| 1380 | |
| 1381 | For example, if you distribute copies of such a program, whether |
| 1382 | gratis or for a fee, you must give the recipients all the rights that |
| 1383 | you have. You must make sure that they, too, receive or can get the |
| 1384 | source code. And you must show them these terms so they know their |
| 1385 | rights. |
| 1386 | |
| 1387 | We protect your rights with two steps: (1) copyright the software, and |
| 1388 | (2) offer you this license which gives you legal permission to copy, |
| 1389 | distribute and/or modify the software. |
| 1390 | |
| 1391 | Also, for each author's protection and ours, we want to make certain |
| 1392 | that everyone understands that there is no warranty for this free |
| 1393 | software. If the software is modified by someone else and passed on, we |
| 1394 | want its recipients to know that what they have is not the original, so |
| 1395 | that any problems introduced by others will not reflect on the original |
| 1396 | authors' reputations. |
| 1397 | |
| 1398 | Finally, any free program is threatened constantly by software |
| 1399 | patents. We wish to avoid the danger that redistributors of a free |
| 1400 | program will individually obtain patent licenses, in effect making the |
| 1401 | program proprietary. To prevent this, we have made it clear that any |
| 1402 | patent must be licensed for everyone's free use or not licensed at all. |
| 1403 | |
| 1404 | The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and |
| 1405 | modification follow. |
| 1406 | |
| 1407 | GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE |
| 1408 | TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION |
| 1409 | |
| 1410 | 0. This License applies to any program or other work which contains |
| 1411 | a notice placed by the copyright holder saying it may be distributed |
| 1412 | under the terms of this General Public License. The "Program", below, |
| 1413 | refers to any such program or work, and a "work based on the Program" |
| 1414 | means either the Program or any derivative work under copyright law: |
| 1415 | that is to say, a work containing the Program or a portion of it, |
| 1416 | either verbatim or with modifications and/or translated into another |
| 1417 | language. (Hereinafter, translation is included without limitation in |
| 1418 | the term "modification".) Each licensee is addressed as "you". |
| 1419 | |
| 1420 | Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are not |
| 1421 | covered by this License; they are outside its scope. The act of |
| 1422 | running the Program is not restricted, and the output from the Program |
| 1423 | is covered only if its contents constitute a work based on the |
| 1424 | Program (independent of having been made by running the Program). |
| 1425 | Whether that is true depends on what the Program does. |
| 1426 | |
| 1427 | 1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Program's |
| 1428 | source code as you receive it, in any medium, provided that you |
| 1429 | conspicuously and appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate |
| 1430 | copyright notice and disclaimer of warranty; keep intact all the |
| 1431 | notices that refer to this License and to the absence of any warranty; |
| 1432 | and give any other recipients of the Program a copy of this License |
| 1433 | along with the Program. |
| 1434 | |
| 1435 | You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy, and |
| 1436 | you may at your option offer warranty protection in exchange for a fee. |
| 1437 | |
| 1438 | 2. You may modify your copy or copies of the Program or any portion |
| 1439 | of it, thus forming a work based on the Program, and copy and |
| 1440 | distribute such modifications or work under the terms of Section 1 |
| 1441 | above, provided that you also meet all of these conditions: |
| 1442 | |
| 1443 | a) You must cause the modified files to carry prominent notices |
| 1444 | stating that you changed the files and the date of any change. |
| 1445 | |
| 1446 | b) You must cause any work that you distribute or publish, that in |
| 1447 | whole or in part contains or is derived from the Program or any |
| 1448 | part thereof, to be licensed as a whole at no charge to all third |
| 1449 | parties under the terms of this License. |
| 1450 | |
| 1451 | c) If the modified program normally reads commands interactively |
| 1452 | when run, you must cause it, when started running for such |
| 1453 | interactive use in the most ordinary way, to print or display an |
| 1454 | announcement including an appropriate copyright notice and a |
| 1455 | notice that there is no warranty (or else, saying that you provide |
| 1456 | a warranty) and that users may redistribute the program under |
| 1457 | these conditions, and telling the user how to view a copy of this |
| 1458 | License. (Exception: if the Program itself is interactive but |
| 1459 | does not normally print such an announcement, your work based on |
| 1460 | the Program is not required to print an announcement.) |
| 1461 | |
| 1462 | These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole. If |
| 1463 | identifiable sections of that work are not derived from the Program, |
| 1464 | and can be reasonably considered independent and separate works in |
| 1465 | themselves, then this License, and its terms, do not apply to those |
| 1466 | sections when you distribute them as separate works. But when you |
| 1467 | distribute the same sections as part of a whole which is a work based |
| 1468 | on the Program, the distribution of the whole must be on the terms of |
| 1469 | this License, whose permissions for other licensees extend to the |
| 1470 | entire whole, and thus to each and every part regardless of who wrote it. |
| 1471 | |
| 1472 | Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest |
| 1473 | your rights to work written entirely by you; rather, the intent is to |
| 1474 | exercise the right to control the distribution of derivative or |
| 1475 | collective works based on the Program. |
| 1476 | |
| 1477 | In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the Program |
| 1478 | with the Program (or with a work based on the Program) on a volume of |
| 1479 | a storage or distribution medium does not bring the other work under |
| 1480 | the scope of this License. |
| 1481 | |
| 1482 | 3. You may copy and distribute the Program (or a work based on it, |
| 1483 | under Section 2) in object code or executable form under the terms of |
| 1484 | Sections 1 and 2 above provided that you also do one of the following: |
| 1485 | |
| 1486 | a) Accompany it with the complete corresponding machine-readable |
| 1487 | source code, which must be distributed under the terms of Sections |
| 1488 | 1 and 2 above on a medium customarily used for software interchange; or, |
| 1489 | |
| 1490 | b) Accompany it with a written offer, valid for at least three |
| 1491 | years, to give any third party, for a charge no more than your |
| 1492 | cost of physically performing source distribution, a complete |
| 1493 | machine-readable copy of the corresponding source code, to be |
| 1494 | distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium |
| 1495 | customarily used for software interchange; or, |
| 1496 | |
| 1497 | c) Accompany it with the information you received as to the offer |
| 1498 | to distribute corresponding source code. (This alternative is |
| 1499 | allowed only for noncommercial distribution and only if you |
| 1500 | received the program in object code or executable form with such |
| 1501 | an offer, in accord with Subsection b above.) |
| 1502 | |
| 1503 | The source code for a work means the preferred form of the work for |
| 1504 | making modifications to it. For an executable work, complete source |
| 1505 | code means all the source code for all modules it contains, plus any |
| 1506 | associated interface definition files, plus the scripts used to |
| 1507 | control compilation and installation of the executable. However, as a |
| 1508 | special exception, the source code distributed need not include |
| 1509 | anything that is normally distributed (in either source or binary |
| 1510 | form) with the major components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of the |
| 1511 | operating system on which the executable runs, unless that component |
| 1512 | itself accompanies the executable. |
| 1513 | |
| 1514 | If distribution of executable or object code is made by offering |
| 1515 | access to copy from a designated place, then offering equivalent |
| 1516 | access to copy the source code from the same place counts as |
| 1517 | distribution of the source code, even though third parties are not |
| 1518 | compelled to copy the source along with the object code. |
| 1519 | |
| 1520 | 4. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the Program |
| 1521 | except as expressly provided under this License. Any attempt |
| 1522 | otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense or distribute the Program is |
| 1523 | void, and will automatically terminate your rights under this License. |
| 1524 | However, parties who have received copies, or rights, from you under |
| 1525 | this License will not have their licenses terminated so long as such |
| 1526 | parties remain in full compliance. |
| 1527 | |
| 1528 | 5. You are not required to accept this License, since you have not |
| 1529 | signed it. However, nothing else grants you permission to modify or |
| 1530 | distribute the Program or its derivative works. These actions are |
| 1531 | prohibited by law if you do not accept this License. Therefore, by |
| 1532 | modifying or distributing the Program (or any work based on the |
| 1533 | Program), you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so, and |
| 1534 | all its terms and conditions for copying, distributing or modifying |
| 1535 | the Program or works based on it. |
| 1536 | |
| 1537 | 6. Each time you redistribute the Program (or any work based on the |
| 1538 | Program), the recipient automatically receives a license from the |
| 1539 | original licensor to copy, distribute or modify the Program subject to |
| 1540 | these terms and conditions. You may not impose any further |
| 1541 | restrictions on the recipients' exercise of the rights granted herein. |
| 1542 | You are not responsible for enforcing compliance by third parties to |
| 1543 | this License. |
| 1544 | |
| 1545 | 7. If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent |
| 1546 | infringement or for any other reason (not limited to patent issues), |
| 1547 | conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or |
| 1548 | otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not |
| 1549 | excuse you from the conditions of this License. If you cannot |
| 1550 | distribute so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this |
| 1551 | License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you |
| 1552 | may not distribute the Program at all. For example, if a patent |
| 1553 | license would not permit royalty-free redistribution of the Program by |
| 1554 | all those who receive copies directly or indirectly through you, then |
| 1555 | the only way you could satisfy both it and this License would be to |
| 1556 | refrain entirely from distribution of the Program. |
| 1557 | |
| 1558 | If any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable under |
| 1559 | any particular circumstance, the balance of the section is intended to |
| 1560 | apply and the section as a whole is intended to apply in other |
| 1561 | circumstances. |
| 1562 | |
| 1563 | It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe any |
| 1564 | patents or other property right claims or to contest validity of any |
| 1565 | such claims; this section has the sole purpose of protecting the |
| 1566 | integrity of the free software distribution system, which is |
| 1567 | implemented by public license practices. Many people have made |
| 1568 | generous contributions to the wide range of software distributed |
| 1569 | through that system in reliance on consistent application of that |
| 1570 | system; it is up to the author/donor to decide if he or she is willing |
| 1571 | to distribute software through any other system and a licensee cannot |
| 1572 | impose that choice. |
| 1573 | |
| 1574 | This section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is believed to |
| 1575 | be a consequence of the rest of this License. |
| 1576 | |
| 1577 | 8. If the distribution and/or use of the Program is restricted in |
| 1578 | certain countries either by patents or by copyrighted interfaces, the |
| 1579 | original copyright holder who places the Program under this License |
| 1580 | may add an explicit geographical distribution limitation excluding |
| 1581 | those countries, so that distribution is permitted only in or among |
| 1582 | countries not thus excluded. In such case, this License incorporates |
| 1583 | the limitation as if written in the body of this License. |
| 1584 | |
| 1585 | 9. The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions |
| 1586 | of the General Public License from time to time. Such new versions will |
| 1587 | be similar in spirit to the present version, but may differ in detail to |
| 1588 | address new problems or concerns. |
| 1589 | |
| 1590 | Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the Program |
| 1591 | specifies a version number of this License which applies to it and "any |
| 1592 | later version", you have the option of following the terms and conditions |
| 1593 | either of that version or of any later version published by the Free |
| 1594 | Software Foundation. If the Program does not specify a version number of |
| 1595 | this License, you may choose any version ever published by the Free Software |
| 1596 | Foundation. |
| 1597 | |
| 1598 | 10. If you wish to incorporate parts of the Program into other free |
| 1599 | programs whose distribution conditions are different, write to the author |
| 1600 | to ask for permission. For software which is copyrighted by the Free |
| 1601 | Software Foundation, write to the Free Software Foundation; we sometimes |
| 1602 | make exceptions for this. Our decision will be guided by the two goals |
| 1603 | of preserving the free status of all derivatives of our free software and |
| 1604 | of promoting the sharing and reuse of software generally. |
| 1605 | |
| 1606 | NO WARRANTY |
| 1607 | |
| 1608 | 11. BECAUSE THE PROGRAM IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE, THERE IS NO WARRANTY |
| 1609 | FOR THE PROGRAM, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW. EXCEPT WHEN |
| 1610 | OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER PARTIES |
| 1611 | PROVIDE THE PROGRAM "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED |
| 1612 | OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF |
| 1613 | MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. THE ENTIRE RISK AS |
| 1614 | TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE PROGRAM IS WITH YOU. SHOULD THE |
| 1615 | PROGRAM PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE COST OF ALL NECESSARY SERVICING, |
| 1616 | REPAIR OR CORRECTION. |
| 1617 | |
| 1618 | 12. IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN WRITING |
| 1619 | WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MAY MODIFY AND/OR |
| 1620 | REDISTRIBUTE THE PROGRAM AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES, |
| 1621 | INCLUDING ANY GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING |
| 1622 | OUT OF THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED |
| 1623 | TO LOSS OF DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY |
| 1624 | YOU OR THIRD PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF THE PROGRAM TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER |
| 1625 | PROGRAMS), EVEN IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE |
| 1626 | POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. |
| 1627 | |
| 1628 | END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS |
| 1629 | |
| 1630 | How to Apply These Terms to Your New Programs |
| 1631 | |
| 1632 | If you develop a new program, and you want it to be of the greatest |
| 1633 | possible use to the public, the best way to achieve this is to make it |
| 1634 | free software which everyone can redistribute and change under these terms. |
| 1635 | |
| 1636 | To do so, attach the following notices to the program. It is safest |
| 1637 | to attach them to the start of each source file to most effectively |
| 1638 | convey the exclusion of warranty; and each file should have at least |
| 1639 | the "copyright" line and a pointer to where the full notice is found. |
| 1640 | |
| 1641 | <one line to give the program's name and a brief idea of what it does.> |
| 1642 | Copyright (C) <year> <name of author> |
| 1643 | |
| 1644 | This program is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify |
| 1645 | it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by |
| 1646 | the Free Software Foundation; either version 2 of the License, or |
| 1647 | (at your option) any later version. |
| 1648 | |
| 1649 | This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful, |
| 1650 | but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of |
| 1651 | MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. See the |
| 1652 | GNU General Public License for more details. |
| 1653 | |
| 1654 | You should have received a copy of the GNU General Public License |
| 1655 | along with this program; if not, write to the Free Software |
| 1656 | Foundation, Inc., 59 Temple Place, Suite 330, Boston, MA 02111-1307 USA |
| 1657 | |
| 1658 | |
| 1659 | Also add information on how to contact you by electronic and paper mail. |
| 1660 | |
| 1661 | If the program is interactive, make it output a short notice like this |
| 1662 | when it starts in an interactive mode: |
| 1663 | |

| 1721 | GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE |
| 1722 | Version 2, June 1991 |
| 1723 | |
| 1724 | Copyright (C) 1989, 1991 Free Software Foundation, Inc. |
| 1725 | 59 Temple Place, Suite 330, Boston, MA 02111-1307 USA |
| 1726 | Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies |
| 1727 | of this license document, but changing it is not allowed. |
| 1728 | |
| 1729 | Preamble |
| 1730 | |
| 1731 | The licenses for most software are designed to take away your |
| 1732 | freedom to share and change it. By contrast, the GNU General Public |
| 1733 | License is intended to guarantee your freedom to share and change free |
| 1734 | software--to make sure the software is free for all its users. This |
| 1735 | General Public License applies to most of the Free Software |
| 1736 | Foundation's software and to any other program whose authors commit to |
| 1737 | using it. (Some other Free Software Foundation software is covered by |
| 1738 | the GNU Library General Public License instead.) You can apply it to |
| 1739 | your programs, too. |
| 1740 | |
| 1741 | When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not |
| 1742 | price. Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that you |
| 1743 | have the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge for |
| 1744 | this service if you wish), that you receive source code or can get it |
| 1745 | if you want it, that you can change the software or use pieces of it |
| 1746 | in new free programs; and that you know you can do these things. |
| 1747 | |
| 1748 | To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that forbid |
| 1749 | anyone to deny you these rights or to ask you to surrender the rights. |
| 1750 | These restrictions translate to certain responsibilities for you if you |
| 1751 | distribute copies of the software, or if you modify it. |
| 1752 | |
| 1753 | For example, if you distribute copies of such a program, whether |
| 1754 | gratis or for a fee, you must give the recipients all the rights that |
| 1755 | you have. You must make sure that they, too, receive or can get the |
| 1756 | source code. And you must show them these terms so they know their |
| 1757 | rights. |
| 1758 | |
| 1759 | We protect your rights with two steps: (1) copyright the software, and |
| 1760 | (2) offer you this license which gives you legal permission to copy, |
| 1761 | distribute and/or modify the software. |
| 1762 | |
| 1763 | Also, for each author's protection and ours, we want to make certain |
| 1764 | that everyone understands that there is no warranty for this free |
| 1765 | software. If the software is modified by someone else and passed on, we |
| 1766 | want its recipients to know that what they have is not the original, so |
| 1767 | that any problems introduced by others will not reflect on the original |
| 1768 | authors' reputations. |
| 1769 | |
| 1770 | Finally, any free program is threatened constantly by software |
| 1771 | patents. We wish to avoid the danger that redistributors of a free |
| 1772 | program will individually obtain patent licenses, in effect making the |
| 1773 | program proprietary. To prevent this, we have made it clear that any |
| 1774 | patent must be licensed for everyone's free use or not licensed at all. |
| 1775 | |
| 1776 | The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and |
| 1777 | modification follow. |
| 1778 | |
| 1779 | GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE |
| 1780 | TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION |
| 1781 | |
| 1782 | 0. This License applies to any program or other work which contains |
| 1783 | a notice placed by the copyright holder saying it may be distributed |
| 1784 | under the terms of this General Public License. The "Program", below, |
| 1785 | refers to any such program or work, and a "work based on the Program" |
| 1786 | means either the Program or any derivative work under copyright law: |
| 1787 | that is to say, a work containing the Program or a portion of it, |
| 1788 | either verbatim or with modifications and/or translated into another |
| 1789 | language. (Hereinafter, translation is included without limitation in |
| 1790 | the term "modification".) Each licensee is addressed as "you". |
| 1791 | |
| 1792 | Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are not |
| 1793 | covered by this License; they are outside its scope. The act of |
| 1794 | running the Program is not restricted, and the output from the Program |
| 1795 | is covered only if its contents constitute a work based on the |
| 1796 | Program (independent of having been made by running the Program). |
| 1797 | Whether that is true depends on what the Program does. |
| 1798 | |
| 1799 | 1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Program's |
| 1800 | source code as you receive it, in any medium, provided that you |
| 1801 | conspicuously and appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate |
| 1802 | copyright notice and disclaimer of warranty; keep intact all the |
| 1803 | notices that refer to this License and to the absence of any warranty; |
| 1804 | and give any other recipients of the Program a copy of this License |
| 1805 | along with the Program. |
| 1806 | |
| 1807 | You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy, and |
| 1808 | you may at your option offer warranty protection in exchange for a fee. |
| 1809 | |
| 1810 | 2. You may modify your copy or copies of the Program or any portion |
| 1811 | of it, thus forming a work based on the Program, and copy and |
| 1812 | distribute such modifications or work under the terms of Section 1 |
| 1813 | above, provided that you also meet all of these conditions: |
| 1814 | |
| 1815 | a) You must cause the modified files to carry prominent notices |
| 1816 | stating that you changed the files and the date of any change. |
| 1817 | |
| 1818 | b) You must cause any work that you distribute or publish, that in |
| 1819 | whole or in part contains or is derived from the Program or any |
| 1820 | part thereof, to be licensed as a whole at no charge to all third |
| 1821 | parties under the terms of this License. |
| 1822 | |
| 1823 | c) If the modified program normally reads commands interactively |
| 1824 | when run, you must cause it, when started running for such |
| 1825 | interactive use in the most ordinary way, to print or display an |
| 1826 | announcement including an appropriate copyright notice and a |
| 1827 | notice that there is no warranty (or else, saying that you provide |
| 1828 | a warranty) and that users may redistribute the program under |
| 1829 | these conditions, and telling the user how to view a copy of this |
| 1830 | License. (Exception: if the Program itself is interactive but |
| 1831 | does not normally print such an announcement, your work based on |
| 1832 | the Program is not required to print an announcement.) |
| 1833 | |
| 1834 | These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole. If |
| 1835 | identifiable sections of that work are not derived from the Program, |
| 1836 | and can be reasonably considered independent and separate works in |
| 1837 | themselves, then this License, and its terms, do not apply to those |
| 1838 | sections when you distribute them as separate works. But when you |
| 1839 | distribute the same sections as part of a whole which is a work based |
| 1840 | on the Program, the distribution of the whole must be on the terms of |
| 1841 | this License, whose permissions for other licensees extend to the |
| 1842 | entire whole, and thus to each and every part regardless of who wrote it. |
| 1843 | |
| 1844 | Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest |
| 1845 | your rights to work written entirely by you; rather, the intent is to |
| 1846 | exercise the right to control the distribution of derivative or |
| 1847 | collective works based on the Program. |
| 1848 | |
| 1849 | In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the Program |
| 1850 | with the Program (or with a work based on the Program) on a volume of |
| 1851 | a storage or distribution medium does not bring the other work under |
| 1852 | the scope of this License. |
| 1853 | |
| 1854 | 3. You may copy and distribute the Program (or a work based on it, |
| 1855 | under Section 2) in object code or executable form under the terms of |
| 1856 | Sections 1 and 2 above provided that you also do one of the following: |
| 1857 | |
| 1858 | a) Accompany it with the complete corresponding machine-readable |
| 1859 | source code, which must be distributed under the terms of Sections |
| 1860 | 1 and 2 above on a medium customarily used for software interchange; or, |
| 1861 | |
| 1862 | b) Accompany it with a written offer, valid for at least three |
| 1863 | years, to give any third party, for a charge no more than your |
| 1864 | cost of physically performing source distribution, a complete |
| 1865 | machine-readable copy of the corresponding source code, to be |
| 1866 | distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium |
| 1867 | customarily used for software interchange; or, |
| 1868 | |
| 1869 | c) Accompany it with the information you received as to the offer |
| 1870 | to distribute corresponding source code. (This alternative is |
| 1871 | allowed only for noncommercial distribution and only if you |
| 1872 | received the program in object code or executable form with such |
| 1873 | an offer, in accord with Subsection b above.) |
| 1874 | |
| 1875 | The source code for a work means the preferred form of the work for |
| 1876 | making modifications to it. For an executable work, complete source |
| 1877 | code means all the source code for all modules it contains, plus any |
| 1878 | associated interface definition files, plus the scripts used to |
| 1879 | control compilation and installation of the executable. However, as a |
| 1880 | special exception, the source code distributed need not include |
| 1881 | anything that is normally distributed (in either source or binary |
| 1882 | form) with the major components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of the |
| 1883 | operating system on which the executable runs, unless that component |
| 1884 | itself accompanies the executable. |
| 1885 | |
| 1886 | If distribution of executable or object code is made by offering |
| 1887 | access to copy from a designated place, then offering equivalent |
| 1888 | access to copy the source code from the same place counts as |
| 1889 | distribution of the source code, even though third parties are not |
| 1890 | compelled to copy the source along with the object code. |
| 1891 | |
| 1892 | 4. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the Program |
| 1893 | except as expressly provided under this License. Any attempt |
| 1894 | otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense or distribute the Program is |
| 1895 | void, and will automatically terminate your rights under this License. |
| 1896 | However, parties who have received copies, or rights, from you under |
| 1897 | this License will not have their licenses terminated so long as such |
| 1898 | parties remain in full compliance. |
| 1899 | |
| 1900 | 5. You are not required to accept this License, since you have not |
| 1901 | signed it. However, nothing else grants you permission to modify or |
| 1902 | distribute the Program or its derivative works. These actions are |
| 1903 | prohibited by law if you do not accept this License. Therefore, by |
| 1904 | modifying or distributing the Program (or any work based on the |
| 1905 | Program), you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so, and |
| 1906 | all its terms and conditions for copying, distributing or modifying |
| 1907 | the Program or works based on it. |
| 1908 | |
| 1909 | 6. Each time you redistribute the Program (or any work based on the |
| 1910 | Program), the recipient automatically receives a license from the |
| 1911 | original licensor to copy, distribute or modify the Program subject to |
| 1912 | these terms and conditions. You may not impose any further |
| 1913 | restrictions on the recipients' exercise of the rights granted herein. |
| 1914 | You are not responsible for enforcing compliance by third parties to |
| 1915 | this License. |
| 1916 | |
| 1917 | 7. If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent |
| 1918 | infringement or for any other reason (not limited to patent issues), |
| 1919 | conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or |
| 1920 | otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not |
| 1921 | excuse you from the conditions of this License. If you cannot |
| 1922 | distribute so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this |
| 1923 | License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you |
| 1924 | may not distribute the Program at all. For example, if a patent |
| 1925 | license would not permit royalty-free redistribution of the Program by |
| 1926 | all those who receive copies directly or indirectly through you, then |
| 1927 | the only way you could satisfy both it and this License would be to |
| 1928 | refrain entirely from distribution of the Program. |
| 1929 | |
| 1930 | If any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable under |
| 1931 | any particular circumstance, the balance of the section is intended to |
| 1932 | apply and the section as a whole is intended to apply in other |
| 1933 | circumstances. |
| 1934 | |
| 1935 | It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe any |
| 1936 | patents or other property right claims or to contest validity of any |
| 1937 | such claims; this section has the sole purpose of protecting the |
| 1938 | integrity of the free software distribution system, which is |
| 1939 | implemented by public license practices. Many people have made |
| 1940 | generous contributions to the wide range of software distributed |
| 1941 | through that system in reliance on consistent application of that |
| 1942 | system; it is up to the author/donor to decide if he or she is willing |
| 1943 | to distribute software through any other system and a licensee cannot |
| 1944 | impose that choice. |
| 1945 | |
| 1946 | This section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is believed to |
| 1947 | be a consequence of the rest of this License. |
| 1948 | |
| 1949 | 8. If the distribution and/or use of the Program is restricted in |
| 1950 | certain countries either by patents or by copyrighted interfaces, the |
| 1951 | original copyright holder who places the Program under this License |
| 1952 | may add an explicit geographical distribution limitation excluding |
| 1953 | those countries, so that distribution is permitted only in or among |
| 1954 | countries not thus excluded. In such case, this License incorporates |
| 1955 | the limitation as if written in the body of this License. |
| 1956 | |
| 1957 | 9. The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions |
| 1958 | of the General Public License from time to time. Such new versions will |
| 1959 | be similar in spirit to the present version, but may differ in detail to |
| 1960 | address new problems or concerns. |
| 1961 | |
| 1962 | Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the Program |
| 1963 | specifies a version number of this License which applies to it and "any |
| 1964 | later version", you have the option of following the terms and conditions |
| 1965 | either of that version or of any later version published by the Free |
| 1966 | Software Foundation. If the Program does not specify a version number of |
| 1967 | this License, you may choose any version ever published by the Free Software |
| 1968 | Foundation. |
| 1969 | |
| 1970 | 10. If you wish to incorporate parts of the Program into other free |
| 1971 | programs whose distribution conditions are different, write to the author |
| 1972 | to ask for permission. For software which is copyrighted by the Free |
| 1973 | Software Foundation, write to the Free Software Foundation; we sometimes |
| 1974 | make exceptions for this. Our decision will be guided by the two goals |
| 1975 | of preserving the free status of all derivatives of our free software and |
| 1976 | of promoting the sharing and reuse of software generally. |
| 1977 | |
| 1978 | NO WARRANTY |
| 1979 | |
| 1980 | 11. BECAUSE THE PROGRAM IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE, THERE IS NO WARRANTY |
| 1981 | FOR THE PROGRAM, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW. EXCEPT WHEN |
| 1982 | OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER PARTIES |
| 1983 | PROVIDE THE PROGRAM "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED |
| 1984 | OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF |
| 1985 | MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. THE ENTIRE RISK AS |
| 1986 | TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE PROGRAM IS WITH YOU. SHOULD THE |
| 1987 | PROGRAM PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE COST OF ALL NECESSARY SERVICING, |
| 1988 | REPAIR OR CORRECTION. |
| 1989 | |
| 1990 | 12. IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN WRITING |
| 1991 | WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MAY MODIFY AND/OR |
| 1992 | REDISTRIBUTE THE PROGRAM AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES, |
| 1993 | INCLUDING ANY GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING |
| 1994 | OUT OF THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED |
| 1995 | TO LOSS OF DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY |
| 1996 | YOU OR THIRD PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF THE PROGRAM TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER |
| 1997 | PROGRAMS), EVEN IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE |
| 1998 | POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. |
| 1999 | |
| 2000 | END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS |
| 2001 | |
| 2002 | How to Apply These Terms to Your New Programs |
| 2003 | |
| 2004 | If you develop a new program, and you want it to be of the greatest |
| 2005 | possible use to the public, the best way to achieve this is to make it |
| 2006 | free software which everyone can redistribute and change under these terms. |
| 2007 | |
| 2008 | To do so, attach the following notices to the program. It is safest |
| 2009 | to attach them to the start of each source file to most effectively |
| 2010 | convey the exclusion of warranty; and each file should have at least |
| 2011 | the "copyright" line and a pointer to where the full notice is found. |
| 2012 | |
| 2013 | <one line to give the program's name and a brief idea of what it does.> |
| 2014 | Copyright (C) <year> <name of author> |
| 2015 | |
| 2016 | This program is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify |
| 2017 | it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by |
| 2018 | the Free Software Foundation; either version 2 of the License, or |
| 2019 | (at your option) any later version. |
| 2020 | |
| 2021 | This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful, |
| 2022 | but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of |
| 2023 | MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. See the |
| 2024 | GNU General Public License for more details. |
| 2025 | |
| 2026 | You should have received a copy of the GNU General Public License |
| 2027 | along with this program; if not, write to the Free Software |
| 2028 | Foundation, Inc., 59 Temple Place, Suite 330, Boston, MA 02111-1307 USA |
| 2029 | |
| 2030 | |
| 2031 | Also add information on how to contact you by electronic and paper mail. |
| 2032 | |
| 2033 | If the program is interactive, make it output a short notice like this |
| 2034 | when it starts in an interactive mode: |
| 2035 | |
| 2036 | Gnomovision version 69, Copyright (C) year name of author |
| 2037 | Gnomovision comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY; for details type `show w'. |
| 2038 | This is free software, and you are welcome to redistribute it |
| 2039 | under certain conditions; type `show c' for details. |
| 2040 | |
| 2041 | The hypothetical commands `show w' and `show c' should show the appropriate |
| 2042 | parts of the General Public License. Of course, the commands you use may |
| 2043 | be called something other than `show w' and `show c'; they could even be |
| 2044 | mouse-clicks or menu items--whatever suits your program. |
| 2045 | |
| 2046 | You should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer) or your |
| 2047 | school, if any, to sign a "copyright disclaimer" for the program, if |
| 2048 | necessary. Here is a sample; alter the names: |
| 2049 | |
| 2050 | Yoyodyne, Inc., hereby disclaims all copyright interest in the program |
| 2051 | `Gnomovision' (which makes passes at compilers) written by James Hacker. |

| 2056 | This General Public License does not permit incorporating your program into |
| 2057 | proprietary programs. If your program is a subroutine library, you may |
