By contrast, the GNU General Public 36+License is intended to guarantee your freedom to share and change free 37+software--to make sure the software is free for all its users. This 38+General Public License applies to most of the Free Software 39+Foundation's software and to any other program whose authors commit to 40+using it. (Some other Free Software Foundation software is covered by 41+the GNU Lesser General Public License instead.) You can apply it to 42+your programs, too. 43+ 44+ When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not 45+price. Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that you 46+have the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge for 47+this service if you wish), that you receive source code or can get it 48+if you want it, that you can change the software or use pieces of it 49+in new free programs; and that you know you can do these things. 50+ 51+ To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that forbid 52+anyone to deny you these rights or to ask you to surrender the rights. 53+These restrictions translate to certain responsibilities for you if you 54+distribute copies of the software, or if you modify it. 55+ 56+ For example, if you distribute copies of such a program, whether 57+gratis or for a fee, you must give the recipients all the rights that 58+you have. You must make sure that they, too, receive or can get the 59+source code. And you must show them these terms so they know their 60+rights. 61+ 62+ We protect your rights with two steps: (1) copyright the software, and 63+(2) offer you this license which gives you legal permission to copy, 64+distribute and/or modify the software. 65+ 66+ Also, for each author's protection and ours, we want to make certain 67+that everyone understands that there is no warranty for this free 68+software. If the software is modified by someone else and passed on, we 69+want its recipients to know that what they have is not the original, so 70+that any problems introduced by others will not reflect on the original 71+authors' reputations. 72+ 73+ Finally, any free program is threatened constantly by software 74+patents. We wish to avoid the danger that redistributors of a free 75+program will individually obtain patent licenses, in effect making the 76+program proprietary. To prevent this, we have made it clear that any 77+patent must be licensed for everyone's free use or not licensed at all. 78+ 79+ The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and 80+modification follow. 81+ 82+ GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE 83+ TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION 84+ 85+ 0. This License applies to any program or other work which contains 86+a notice placed by the copyright holder saying it may be distributed 87+under the terms of this General Public License. The "Program", below, 88+refers to any such program or work, and a "work based on the Program" 89+means either the Program or any derivative work under copyright law: 90+that is to say, a work containing the Program or a portion of it, 91+either verbatim or with modifications and/or translated into another 92+language. (Hereinafter, translation is included without limitation in 93+the term "modification".) Each licensee is addressed as "you". 94+ 95+Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are not 96+covered by this License; they are outside its scope. The act of 97+running the Program is not restricted, and the output from the Program 98+is covered only if its contents constitute a work based on the 99+Program (independent of having been made by running the Program). 100+Whether that is true depends on what the Program does. 101+ 102+ 1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Program's 103+source code as you receive it, in any medium, provided that you 104+conspicuously and appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate 105+copyright notice and disclaimer of warranty; keep intact all the 106+notices that refer to this License and to the absence of any warranty; 107+and give any other recipients of the Program a copy of this License 108+along with the Program. 109+ 110+You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy, and 111+you may at your option offer warranty protection in exchange for a fee. 112+ 113+ 2. You may modify your copy or copies of the Program or any portion 114+of it, thus forming a work based on the Program, and copy and 115+distribute such modifications or work under the terms of Section 1 116+above, provided that you also meet all of these conditions: 117+ 118+ a) You must cause the modified files to carry prominent notices 119+ stating that you changed the files and the date of any change. 120+ 121+ b) You must cause any work that you distribute or publish, that in 122+ whole or in part contains or is derived from the Program or any 123+ part thereof, to be licensed as a whole at no charge to all third 124+ parties under the terms of this License. 125+ 126+ c) If the modified program normally reads commands interactively 127+ when run, you must cause it, when started running for such 128+ interactive use in the most ordinary way, to print or display an 129+ announcement including an appropriate copyright notice and a 130+ notice that there is no warranty (or else, saying that you provide 131+ a warranty) and that users may redistribute the program under 132+ these conditions, and telling the user how to view a copy of this 133+ License. (Exception: if the Program itself is interactive but 134+ does not normally print such an announcement, your work based on 135+ the Program is not required to print an announcement.) 136+ 137+These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole. If 138+identifiable sections of that work are not derived from the Program, 139+and can be reasonably considered independent and separate works in 140+themselves, then this License, and its terms, do not apply to those 141+sections when you distribute them as separate works. But when you 142+distribute the same sections as part of a whole which is a work based 143+on the Program, the distribution of the whole must be on the terms of 144+this License, whose permissions for other licensees extend to the 145+entire whole, and thus to each and every part regardless of who wrote it. 146+ 147+Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest 148+your rights to work written entirely by you; rather, the intent is to 149+exercise the right to control the distribution of derivative or 150+collective works based on the Program. 151+ 152+In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the Program 153+with the Program (or with a work based on the Program) on a volume of 154+a storage or distribution medium does not bring the other work under 155+the scope of this License. 156+ 157+ 3. You may copy and distribute the Program (or a work based on it, 158+under Section 2) in object code or executable form under the terms of 159+Sections 1 and 2 above provided that you also do one of the following: 160+ 161+ a) Accompany it with the complete corresponding machine-readable 162+ source code, which must be distributed under the terms of Sections 163+ 1 and 2 above on a medium customarily used for software interchange; or, 164+ 165+ b) Accompany it with a written offer, valid for at least three 166+ years, to give any third party, for a charge no more than your 167+ cost of physically performing source distribution, a complete 168+ machine-readable copy of the corresponding source code, to be 169+ distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium 170+ customarily used for software interchange; or, 171+ 172+ c) Accompany it with the information you received as to the offer 173+ to distribute corresponding source code. (This alternative is 174+ allowed only for noncommercial distribution and only if you 175+ received the program in object code or executable form with such 176+ an offer, in accord with Subsection b above.) 177+ 178+The source code for a work means the preferred form of the work for 179+making modifications to it. For an executable work, complete source 180+code means all the source code for all modules it contains, plus any 181+associated interface definition files, plus the scripts used to 182+control compilation and installation of the executable. However, as a 183+special exception, the source code distributed need not include 184+anything that is normally distributed (in either source or binary 185+form) with the major components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of the 186+operating system on which the executable runs, unless that component 187+itself accompanies the executable. 188+ 189+If distribution of executable or object code is made by offering 190+access to copy from a designated place, then offering equivalent 191+access to copy the source code from the same place counts as 192+distribution of the source code, even though third parties are not 193+compelled to copy the source along with the object code. 194+ 195+ 4. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the Program 196+except as expressly provided under this License. Any attempt 197+otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense or distribute the Program is 198+void, and will automatically terminate your rights under this License. 199+However, parties who have received copies, or rights, from you under 200+this License will not have their licenses terminated so long as such 201+parties remain in full compliance. 202+ 203+ 5. You are not required to accept this License, since you have not 204+signed it. However, nothing else grants you permission to modify or 205+distribute the Program or its derivative works. These actions are 206+prohibited by law if you do not accept this License. Therefore, by 207+modifying or distributing the Program (or any work based on the 208+Program), you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so, and 209+all its terms and conditions for copying, distributing or modifying 210+the Program or works based on it. 211+ 212+ 6. Each time you redistribute the Program (or any work based on the 213+Program), the recipient automatically receives a license from the 214+original licensor to copy, distribute or modify the Program subject to 215+these terms and conditions. You may not impose any further 216+restrictions on the recipients' exercise of the rights granted herein. 217+You are not responsible for enforcing compliance by third parties to 218+this License. 219+ 220+ 7. If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent 221+infringement or for any other reason (not limited to patent issues), 222+conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or 223+otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not 224+excuse you from the conditions of this License. If you cannot 225+distribute so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this 226+License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you 227+may not distribute the Program at all. For example, if a patent 228+license would not permit royalty-free redistribution of the Program by 229+all those who receive copies directly or indirectly through you, then 230+the only way you could satisfy both it and this License would be to 231+refrain entirely from distribution of the Program. 232+ 233+If any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable under 234+any particular circumstance, the balance of the section is intended to 235+apply and the section as a whole is intended to apply in other 236+circumstances. 237+ 238+It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe any 239+patents or other property right claims or to contest validity of any 240+such claims; this section has the sole purpose of protecting the 241+integrity of the free software distribution system, which is 242+implemented by public license practices. Many people have made 243+generous contributions to the wide range of software distributed 244+through that system in reliance on consistent application of that 245+system; it is up to the author/donor to decide if he or she is willing 246+to distribute software through any other system and a licensee cannot 247+impose that choice. 248+ 249+This section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is believed to 250+be a consequence of the rest of this License. 251+ 252+ 8. If the distribution and/or use of the Program is restricted in 253+certain countries either by patents or by copyrighted interfaces, the 254+original copyright holder who places the Program under this License 255+may add an explicit geographical distribution limitation excluding 256+those countries, so that distribution is permitted only in or among 257+countries not thus excluded. In such case, this License incorporates 258+the limitation as if written in the body of this License. 259+ 260+ 9. The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions 261+of the General Public License from time to time. Such new versions will 262+be similar in spirit to the present version, but may differ in detail to 263+address new problems or concerns. 264+ 265+Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the Program 266+specifies a version number of this License which applies to it and "any 267+later version", you have the option of following the terms and conditions 268+either of that version or of any later version published by the Free 269+Software Foundation. If the Program does not specify a version number of 270+this License, you may choose any version ever published by the Free Software 271+Foundation. 272+ 273+ 10. If you wish to incorporate parts of the Program into other free 274+programs whose distribution conditions are different, write to the author 275+to ask for permission. For software which is copyrighted by the Free 276+Software Foundation, write to the Free Software Foundation; we sometimes 277+make exceptions for this. Our decision will be guided by the two goals 278+of preserving the free status of all derivatives of our free software and 279+of promoting the sharing and reuse of software generally. 280+ 281+ NO WARRANTY 282+ 283+ 11. BECAUSE THE PROGRAM IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE, THERE IS NO WARRANTY 284+FOR THE PROGRAM, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW. EXCEPT WHEN 285+OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER PARTIES 286+PROVIDE THE PROGRAM "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED 287+OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF 288+MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. THE ENTIRE RISK AS 289+TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE PROGRAM IS WITH YOU. SHOULD THE 290+PROGRAM PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE COST OF ALL NECESSARY SERVICING, 291+REPAIR OR CORRECTION. 292+ 293+ 12. IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN WRITING 294+WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MAY MODIFY AND/OR 295+REDISTRIBUTE THE PROGRAM AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES, 296+INCLUDING ANY GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING 297+OUT OF THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED 298+TO LOSS OF DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY 299+YOU OR THIRD PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF THE PROGRAM TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER 300+PROGRAMS), EVEN IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE 301+POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. 302+ 303+ END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS 304+ 305+ How to Apply These Terms to Your New Programs 306+ 307+ If you develop a new program, and you want it to be of the greatest 308+possible use to the public, the best way to achieve this is to make it 309+free software which everyone can redistribute and change under these terms. 310+ 311+ To do so, attach the following notices to the program. It is safest 312+to attach them to the start of each source file to most effectively 313+convey the exclusion of warranty; and each file should have at least 314+the "copyright" line and a pointer to where the full notice is found. 315+ 316+ <one line to give the program's name and a brief idea of what it does.> 317+ Copyright (C) <year> <name of author> 318+ 319+ This program is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify 320+ it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by 321+ the Free Software Foundation; either version 2 of the License, or 322+ (at your option) any later version. 323+ 324+ This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful, 325+ but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of 326+ MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. See the 327+ GNU General Public License for more details. 328+ 329+ You should have received a copy of the GNU General Public License along 330+ with this program; if not, write to the Free Software Foundation, Inc., 331+ 51 Franklin Street, Fifth Floor, Boston, MA 02110-1301 USA. 332+ 333+Also add information on how to contact you by electronic and paper mail. 334+ 335+If the program is interactive, make it output a short notice like this 336+when it starts in an interactive mode: 337+ 338+ Gnomovision version 69, Copyright (C) year name of author 339+ Gnomovision comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY; for details type `show w'. 340+ This is free software, and you are welcome to redistribute it 341+ under certain conditions; type `show c' for details. 342+ 343+The hypothetical commands `show w' and `show c' should show the appropriate 344+parts of the General Public License. Of course, the commands you use may 345+be called something other than `show w' and `show c'; they could even be 346+mouse-clicks or menu items--whatever suits your program. 347+ 348+You should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer) or your 349+school, if any, to sign a "copyright disclaimer" for the program, if 350+necessary. Here is a sample; alter the names: 351+ 352+ Yoyodyne, Inc., hereby disclaims all copyright interest in the program 353+ `Gnomovision' (which makes passes at compilers) written by James Hacker. 354+ 355+ <signature of Ty Coon>, 1 April 1989 356+ Ty Coon, President of Vice 357+ 358+This General Public License does not permit incorporating your program into 359+proprietary programs. If your program is a subroutine library, you may 360+consider it more useful to permit linking proprietary applications with the 361+library. If this is what you want to do, use the GNU Lesser General 362+Public License instead of this License. 363
