Copyright (C) 2007 Free Software Foundation, Inc.

1a5a38
1a5a38
Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies of this
1a5a38
license document, but changing it is not allowed.
1a5a38
1a5a38
### Preamble
1a5a38
1a5a38
The GNU General Public License is a free, copyleft license for
1a5a38
software and other kinds of works.
1a5a38
1a5a38
The licenses for most software and other practical works are designed
1a5a38
to take away your freedom to share and change the works. By contrast,
1a5a38
the GNU General Public License is intended to guarantee your freedom
1a5a38
to share and change all versions of a program--to make sure it remains
1a5a38
free software for all its users. We, the Free Software Foundation, use
1a5a38
the GNU General Public License for most of our software; it applies
1a5a38
also to any other work released this way by its authors. You can apply
1a5a38
it to your programs, too.
1a5a38
1a5a38
When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not
1a5a38
price. Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that you
1a5a38
have the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge for
1a5a38
them if you wish), that you receive source code or can get it if you
1a5a38
want it, that you can change the software or use pieces of it in new
1a5a38
free programs, and that you know you can do these things.
1a5a38
1a5a38
To protect your rights, we need to prevent others from denying you
1a5a38
these rights or asking you to surrender the rights. Therefore, you
1a5a38
have certain responsibilities if you distribute copies of the
1a5a38
software, or if you modify it: responsibilities to respect the freedom
1a5a38
of others.
1a5a38
1a5a38
For example, if you distribute copies of such a program, whether
1a5a38
gratis or for a fee, you must pass on to the recipients the same
1a5a38
freedoms that you received. You must make sure that they, too, receive
1a5a38
or can get the source code. And you must show them these terms so they
1a5a38
know their rights.
1a5a38
1a5a38
Developers that use the GNU GPL protect your rights with two steps:
1a5a38
(1) assert copyright on the software, and (2) offer you this License
1a5a38
giving you legal permission to copy, distribute and/or modify it.
1a5a38
1a5a38
For the developers' and authors' protection, the GPL clearly explains
1a5a38
that there is no warranty for this free software. For both users' and
1a5a38
authors' sake, the GPL requires that modified versions be marked as
1a5a38
changed, so that their problems will not be attributed erroneously to
1a5a38
authors of previous versions.
1a5a38
1a5a38
Some devices are designed to deny users access to install or run
1a5a38
modified versions of the software inside them, although the
1a5a38
manufacturer can do so. This is fundamentally incompatible with the
1a5a38
aim of protecting users' freedom to change the software. The
1a5a38
systematic pattern of such abuse occurs in the area of products for
1a5a38
individuals to use, which is precisely where it is most unacceptable.
1a5a38
Therefore, we have designed this version of the GPL to prohibit the
1a5a38
practice for those products. If such problems arise substantially in
1a5a38
other domains, we stand ready to extend this provision to those
1a5a38
domains in future versions of the GPL, as needed to protect the
1a5a38
freedom of users.
1a5a38
1a5a38
Finally, every program is threatened constantly by software patents.
1a5a38
States should not allow patents to restrict development and use of
1a5a38
software on general-purpose computers, but in those that do, we wish
1a5a38
to avoid the special danger that patents applied to a free program
1a5a38
could make it effectively proprietary. To prevent this, the GPL
1a5a38
assures that patents cannot be used to render the program non-free.
1a5a38
1a5a38
The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and
1a5a38
modification follow.
1a5a38
1a5a38
### TERMS AND CONDITIONS
1a5a38
1a5a38
#### 0. Definitions.
1a5a38
1a5a38
"This License" refers to version 3 of the GNU General Public License.
1a5a38
1a5a38
"Copyright" also means copyright-like laws that apply to other kinds
1a5a38
of works, such as semiconductor masks.
1a5a38
1a5a38
"The Program" refers to any copyrightable work licensed under this
1a5a38
License. Each licensee is addressed as "you". "Licensees" and
1a5a38
"recipients" may be individuals or organizations.
1a5a38
1a5a38
To "modify" a work means to copy from or adapt all or part of the work
1a5a38
in a fashion requiring copyright permission, other than the making of
1a5a38
an exact copy. The resulting work is called a "modified version" of
1a5a38
the earlier work or a work "based on" the earlier work.
1a5a38
1a5a38
A "covered work" means either the unmodified Program or a work based
1a5a38
on the Program.
1a5a38
1a5a38
To "propagate" a work means to do anything with it that, without
1a5a38
permission, would make you directly or secondarily liable for
1a5a38
infringement under applicable copyright law, except executing it on a
1a5a38
computer or modifying a private copy. Propagation includes copying,
1a5a38
distribution (with or without modification), making available to the
1a5a38
public, and in some countries other activities as well.
1a5a38
1a5a38
To "convey" a work means any kind of propagation that enables other
1a5a38
parties to make or receive copies. Mere interaction with a user
1a5a38
through a computer network, with no transfer of a copy, is not
1a5a38
conveying.
1a5a38
1a5a38
An interactive user interface displays "Appropriate Legal Notices" to
1a5a38
the extent that it includes a convenient and prominently visible
1a5a38
feature that (1) displays an appropriate copyright notice, and (2)
1a5a38
tells the user that there is no warranty for the work (except to the
1a5a38
extent that warranties are provided), that licensees may convey the
1a5a38
work under this License, and how to view a copy of this License. If
1a5a38
the interface presents a list of user commands or options, such as a
1a5a38
menu, a prominent item in the list meets this criterion.
1a5a38
1a5a38
#### 1. Source Code.
1a5a38
1a5a38
The "source code" for a work means the preferred form of the work for
1a5a38
making modifications to it. "Object code" means any non-source form of
1a5a38
a work.
1a5a38
1a5a38
A "Standard Interface" means an interface that either is an official
1a5a38
standard defined by a recognized standards body, or, in the case of
1a5a38
interfaces specified for a particular programming language, one that
1a5a38
is widely used among developers working in that language.
1a5a38
1a5a38
The "System Libraries" of an executable work include anything, other
1a5a38
than the work as a whole, that (a) is included in the normal form of
1a5a38
packaging a Major Component, but which is not part of that Major
1a5a38
Component, and (b) serves only to enable use of the work with that
1a5a38
Major Component, or to implement a Standard Interface for which an
1a5a38
implementation is available to the public in source code form. A
1a5a38
"Major Component", in this context, means a major essential component
1a5a38
(kernel, window system, and so on) of the specific operating system
1a5a38
(if any) on which the executable work runs, or a compiler used to
1a5a38
produce the work, or an object code interpreter used to run it.
1a5a38
1a5a38
The "Corresponding Source" for a work in object code form means all
1a5a38
the source code needed to generate, install, and (for an executable
1a5a38
work) run the object code and to modify the work, including scripts to
1a5a38
control those activities. However, it does not include the work's
1a5a38
System Libraries, or general-purpose tools or generally available free
1a5a38
programs which are used unmodified in performing those activities but
1a5a38
which are not part of the work. For example, Corresponding Source
1a5a38
includes interface definition files associated with source files for
1a5a38
the work, and the source code for shared libraries and dynamically
1a5a38
linked subprograms that the work is specifically designed to require,
1a5a38
such as by intimate data communication or control flow between those
1a5a38
subprograms and other parts of the work.
1a5a38
1a5a38
The Corresponding Source need not include anything that users can
1a5a38
regenerate automatically from other parts of the Corresponding Source.
1a5a38
1a5a38
The Corresponding Source for a work in source code form is that same
1a5a38
work.
1a5a38
1a5a38
#### 2. Basic Permissions.
1a5a38
1a5a38
All rights granted under this License are granted for the term of
1a5a38
copyright on the Program, and are irrevocable provided the stated
1a5a38
conditions are met. This License explicitly affirms your unlimited
1a5a38
permission to run the unmodified Program. The output from running a
1a5a38
covered work is covered by this License only if the output, given its
1a5a38
content, constitutes a covered work. This License acknowledges your
1a5a38
rights of fair use or other equivalent, as provided by copyright law.
1a5a38
1a5a38
You may make, run and propagate covered works that you do not convey,
1a5a38
without conditions so long as your license otherwise remains in force.
1a5a38
You may convey covered works to others for the sole purpose of having
1a5a38
them make modifications exclusively for you, or provide you with
1a5a38
facilities for running those works, provided that you comply with the
1a5a38
terms of this License in conveying all material for which you do not
1a5a38
control copyright. Those thus making or running the covered works for
1a5a38
you must do so exclusively on your behalf, under your direction and
1a5a38
control, on terms that prohibit them from making any copies of your
1a5a38
copyrighted material outside their relationship with you.
1a5a38
1a5a38
Conveying under any other circumstances is permitted solely under the
1a5a38
conditions stated below. Sublicensing is not allowed; section 10 makes
1a5a38
it unnecessary.
1a5a38
1a5a38
#### 3. Protecting Users' Legal Rights From Anti-Circumvention Law.
1a5a38
1a5a38
No covered work shall be deemed part of an effective technological
1a5a38
measure under any applicable law fulfilling obligations under article
1a5a38
11 of the WIPO copyright treaty adopted on 20 December 1996, or
1a5a38
similar laws prohibiting or restricting circumvention of such
1a5a38
measures.
1a5a38
1a5a38
When you convey a covered work, you waive any legal power to forbid
1a5a38
circumvention of technological measures to the extent such
1a5a38
circumvention is effected by exercising rights under this License with
1a5a38
respect to the covered work, and you disclaim any intention to limit
1a5a38
operation or modification of the work as a means of enforcing, against
1a5a38
the work's users, your or third parties' legal rights to forbid
1a5a38
circumvention of technological measures.
1a5a38
1a5a38
#### 4. Conveying Verbatim Copies.
1a5a38
1a5a38
You may convey verbatim copies of the Program's source code as you
1a5a38
receive it, in any medium, provided that you conspicuously and
1a5a38
appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate copyright notice;
1a5a38
keep intact all notices stating that this License and any
1a5a38
non-permissive terms added in accord with section 7 apply to the code;
1a5a38
keep intact all notices of the absence of any warranty; and give all
1a5a38
recipients a copy of this License along with the Program.
1a5a38
1a5a38
You may charge any price or no price for each copy that you convey,
1a5a38
and you may offer support or warranty protection for a fee.
1a5a38
1a5a38
#### 5. Conveying Modified Source Versions.
1a5a38
1a5a38
You may convey a work based on the Program, or the modifications to
1a5a38
produce it from the Program, in the form of source code under the
1a5a38
terms of section 4, provided that you also meet all of these
1a5a38
conditions:
1a5a38
1a5a38
-   a) The work must carry prominent notices stating that you modified
1a5a38
    it, and giving a relevant date.
1a5a38
-   b) The work must carry prominent notices stating that it is
1a5a38
    released under this License and any conditions added under
1a5a38
    section 7. This requirement modifies the requirement in section 4
1a5a38
    to "keep intact all notices".
1a5a38
-   c) You must license the entire work, as a whole, under this
1a5a38
    License to anyone who comes into possession of a copy. This
1a5a38
    License will therefore apply, along with any applicable section 7
1a5a38
    additional terms, to the whole of the work, and all its parts,
1a5a38
    regardless of how they are packaged. This License gives no
1a5a38
    permission to license the work in any other way, but it does not
1a5a38
    invalidate such permission if you have separately received it.
1a5a38
-   d) If the work has interactive user interfaces, each must display
1a5a38
    Appropriate Legal Notices; however, if the Program has interactive
1a5a38
    interfaces that do not display Appropriate Legal Notices, your
1a5a38
    work need not make them do so.
1a5a38
1a5a38
A compilation of a covered work with other separate and independent
1a5a38
works, which are not by their nature extensions of the covered work,
1a5a38
and which are not combined with it such as to form a larger program,
1a5a38
in or on a volume of a storage or distribution medium, is called an
1a5a38
"aggregate" if the compilation and its resulting copyright are not
1a5a38
used to limit the access or legal rights of the compilation's users
1a5a38
beyond what the individual works permit. Inclusion of a covered work
1a5a38
in an aggregate does not cause this License to apply to the other
1a5a38
parts of the aggregate.
1a5a38
1a5a38
#### 6. Conveying Non-Source Forms.
1a5a38
1a5a38
You may convey a covered work in object code form under the terms of
1a5a38
sections 4 and 5, provided that you also convey the machine-readable
1a5a38
Corresponding Source under the terms of this License, in one of these
1a5a38
ways:
1a5a38
1a5a38
-   a) Convey the object code in, or embodied in, a physical product
1a5a38
    (including a physical distribution medium), accompanied by the
1a5a38
    Corresponding Source fixed on a durable physical medium
1a5a38
    customarily used for software interchange.
1a5a38
-   b) Convey the object code in, or embodied in, a physical product
1a5a38
    (including a physical distribution medium), accompanied by a
1a5a38
    written offer, valid for at least three years and valid for as
1a5a38
    long as you offer spare parts or customer support for that product
1a5a38
    model, to give anyone who possesses the object code either (1) a
1a5a38
    copy of the Corresponding Source for all the software in the
1a5a38
    product that is covered by this License, on a durable physical
1a5a38
    medium customarily used for software interchange, for a price no
1a5a38
    more than your reasonable cost of physically performing this
1a5a38
    conveying of source, or (2) access to copy the Corresponding
1a5a38
    Source from a network server at no charge.
1a5a38
-   c) Convey individual copies of the object code with a copy of the
1a5a38
    written offer to provide the Corresponding Source. This
1a5a38
    alternative is allowed only occasionally and noncommercially, and
1a5a38
    only if you received the object code with such an offer, in accord
1a5a38
    with subsection 6b.
1a5a38
-   d) Convey the object code by offering access from a designated
1a5a38
    place (gratis or for a charge), and offer equivalent access to the
1a5a38
    Corresponding Source in the same way through the same place at no
1a5a38
    further charge. You need not require recipients to copy the
1a5a38
    Corresponding Source along with the object code. If the place to
1a5a38
    copy the object code is a network server, the Corresponding Source
1a5a38
    may be on a different server (operated by you or a third party)
1a5a38
    that supports equivalent copying facilities, provided you maintain
1a5a38
    clear directions next to the object code saying where to find the
1a5a38
    Corresponding Source. Regardless of what server hosts the
1a5a38
    Corresponding Source, you remain obligated to ensure that it is
1a5a38
    available for as long as needed to satisfy these requirements.
1a5a38
-   e) Convey the object code using peer-to-peer transmission,
1a5a38
    provided you inform other peers where the object code and
1a5a38
    Corresponding Source of the work are being offered to the general
1a5a38
    public at no charge under subsection 6d.
1a5a38
1a5a38
A separable portion of the object code, whose source code is excluded
1a5a38
from the Corresponding Source as a System Library, need not be
1a5a38
included in conveying the object code work.
1a5a38
1a5a38
A "User Product" is either (1) a "consumer product", which means any
1a5a38
tangible personal property which is normally used for personal,
1a5a38
family, or household purposes, or (2) anything designed or sold for
1a5a38
incorporation into a dwelling. In determining whether a product is a
1a5a38
consumer product, doubtful cases shall be resolved in favor of
1a5a38
coverage. For a particular product received by a particular user,
1a5a38
"normally used" refers to a typical or common use of that class of
1a5a38
product, regardless of the status of the particular user or of the way
1a5a38
in which the particular user actually uses, or expects or is expected
1a5a38
to use, the product. A product is a consumer product regardless of
1a5a38
whether the product has substantial commercial, industrial or
1a5a38
non-consumer uses, unless such uses represent the only significant
1a5a38
mode of use of the product.
1a5a38
1a5a38
"Installation Information" for a User Product means any methods,
1a5a38
procedures, authorization keys, or other information required to
1a5a38
install and execute modified versions of a covered work in that User
1a5a38
Product from a modified version of its Corresponding Source. The
1a5a38
information must suffice to ensure that the continued functioning of
1a5a38
the modified object code is in no case prevented or interfered with
1a5a38
solely because modification has been made.
1a5a38
1a5a38
If you convey an object code work under this section in, or with, or
1a5a38
specifically for use in, a User Product, and the conveying occurs as
1a5a38
part of a transaction in which the right of possession and use of the
1a5a38
User Product is transferred to the recipient in perpetuity or for a
1a5a38
fixed term (regardless of how the transaction is characterized), the
1a5a38
Corresponding Source conveyed under this section must be accompanied
1a5a38
by the Installation Information. But this requirement does not apply
1a5a38
if neither you nor any third party retains the ability to install
1a5a38
modified object code on the User Product (for example, the work has
1a5a38
been installed in ROM).
1a5a38
1a5a38
The requirement to provide Installation Information does not include a
1a5a38
requirement to continue to provide support service, warranty, or
1a5a38
updates for a work that has been modified or installed by the
1a5a38
recipient, or for the User Product in which it has been modified or
1a5a38
installed. Access to a network may be denied when the modification
1a5a38
itself materially and adversely affects the operation of the network
1a5a38
or violates the rules and protocols for communication across the
1a5a38
network.
1a5a38
1a5a38
Corresponding Source conveyed, and Installation Information provided,
1a5a38
in accord with this section must be in a format that is publicly
1a5a38
documented (and with an implementation available to the public in
1a5a38
source code form), and must require no special password or key for
1a5a38
unpacking, reading or copying.
1a5a38
1a5a38
#### 7. Additional Terms.
1a5a38
1a5a38
"Additional permissions" are terms that supplement the terms of this
1a5a38
License by making exceptions from one or more of its conditions.
1a5a38
Additional permissions that are applicable to the entire Program shall
1a5a38
be treated as though they were included in this License, to the extent
1a5a38
that they are valid under applicable law. If additional permissions
1a5a38
apply only to part of the Program, that part may be used separately
1a5a38
under those permissions, but the entire Program remains governed by
1a5a38
this License without regard to the additional permissions.
1a5a38
1a5a38
When you convey a copy of a covered work, you may at your option
1a5a38
remove any additional permissions from that copy, or from any part of
1a5a38
it. (Additional permissions may be written to require their own
1a5a38
removal in certain cases when you modify the work.) You may place
1a5a38
additional permissions on material, added by you to a covered work,
1a5a38
for which you have or can give appropriate copyright permission.
1a5a38
1a5a38
Notwithstanding any other provision of this License, for material you
1a5a38
add to a covered work, you may (if authorized by the copyright holders
1a5a38
of that material) supplement the terms of this License with terms:
1a5a38
1a5a38
-   a) Disclaiming warranty or limiting liability differently from the
1a5a38
    terms of sections 15 and 16 of this License; or
1a5a38
-   b) Requiring preservation of specified reasonable legal notices or
1a5a38
    author attributions in that material or in the Appropriate Legal
1a5a38
    Notices displayed by works containing it; or
1a5a38
-   c) Prohibiting misrepresentation of the origin of that material,
1a5a38
    or requiring that modified versions of such material be marked in
1a5a38
    reasonable ways as different from the original version; or
1a5a38
-   d) Limiting the use for publicity purposes of names of licensors
1a5a38
    or authors of the material; or
1a5a38
-   e) Declining to grant rights under trademark law for use of some
1a5a38
    trade names, trademarks, or service marks; or
1a5a38
-   f) Requiring indemnification of licensors and authors of that
1a5a38
    material by anyone who conveys the material (or modified versions
1a5a38
    of it) with contractual assumptions of liability to the recipient,
1a5a38
    for any liability that these contractual assumptions directly
1a5a38
    impose on those licensors and authors.
1a5a38
1a5a38
All other non-permissive additional terms are considered "further
1a5a38
restrictions" within the meaning of section 10. If the Program as you
1a5a38
received it, or any part of it, contains a notice stating that it is
1a5a38
governed by this License along with a term that is a further
1a5a38
restriction, you may remove that term. If a license document contains
1a5a38
a further restriction but permits relicensing or conveying under this
1a5a38
License, you may add to a covered work material governed by the terms
1a5a38
of that license document, provided that the further restriction does
1a5a38
not survive such relicensing or conveying.
1a5a38
1a5a38
If you add terms to a covered work in accord with this section, you
1a5a38
must place, in the relevant source files, a statement of the
1a5a38
additional terms that apply to those files, or a notice indicating
1a5a38
where to find the applicable terms.
1a5a38
1a5a38
Additional terms, permissive or non-permissive, may be stated in the
1a5a38
form of a separately written license, or stated as exceptions; the
1a5a38
above requirements apply either way.
1a5a38
1a5a38
#### 8. Termination.
1a5a38
1a5a38
You may not propagate or modify a covered work except as expressly
1a5a38
provided under this License. Any attempt otherwise to propagate or
1a5a38
modify it is void, and will automatically terminate your rights under
1a5a38
this License (including any patent licenses granted under the third
1a5a38
paragraph of section 11).
1a5a38
1a5a38
However, if you cease all violation of this License, then your license
1a5a38
from a particular copyright holder is reinstated (a) provisionally,
1a5a38
unless and until the copyright holder explicitly and finally
1a5a38
terminates your license, and (b) permanently, if the copyright holder
1a5a38
fails to notify you of the violation by some reasonable means prior to
1a5a38
60 days after the cessation.
1a5a38
1a5a38
Moreover, your license from a particular copyright holder is
1a5a38
reinstated permanently if the copyright holder notifies you of the
1a5a38
violation by some reasonable means, this is the first time you have
1a5a38
received notice of violation of this License (for any work) from that
1a5a38
copyright holder, and you cure the violation prior to 30 days after
1a5a38
your receipt of the notice.
1a5a38
1a5a38
Termination of your rights under this section does not terminate the
1a5a38
licenses of parties who have received copies or rights from you under
1a5a38
this License. If your rights have been terminated and not permanently
1a5a38
reinstated, you do not qualify to receive new licenses for the same
1a5a38
material under section 10.
1a5a38
1a5a38
#### 9. Acceptance Not Required for Having Copies.
1a5a38
1a5a38
You are not required to accept this License in order to receive or run
1a5a38
a copy of the Program. Ancillary propagation of a covered work
1a5a38
occurring solely as a consequence of using peer-to-peer transmission
1a5a38
to receive a copy likewise does not require acceptance. However,
1a5a38
nothing other than this License grants you permission to propagate or
1a5a38
modify any covered work. These actions infringe copyright if you do
1a5a38
not accept this License. Therefore, by modifying or propagating a
1a5a38
covered work, you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so.
1a5a38
1a5a38
#### 10. Automatic Licensing of Downstream Recipients.
1a5a38
1a5a38
Each time you convey a covered work, the recipient automatically
1a5a38
receives a license from the original licensors, to run, modify and
1a5a38
propagate that work, subject to this License. You are not responsible
1a5a38
for enforcing compliance by third parties with this License.
1a5a38
1a5a38
An "entity transaction" is a transaction transferring control of an
1a5a38
organization, or substantially all assets of one, or subdividing an
1a5a38
organization, or merging organizations. If propagation of a covered
1a5a38
work results from an entity transaction, each party to that
1a5a38
transaction who receives a copy of the work also receives whatever
1a5a38
licenses to the work the party's predecessor in interest had or could
1a5a38
give under the previous paragraph, plus a right to possession of the
1a5a38
Corresponding Source of the work from the predecessor in interest, if
1a5a38
the predecessor has it or can get it with reasonable efforts.
1a5a38
1a5a38
You may not impose any further restrictions on the exercise of the
1a5a38
rights granted or affirmed under this License. For example, you may
1a5a38
not impose a license fee, royalty, or other charge for exercise of
1a5a38
rights granted under this License, and you may not initiate litigation
1a5a38
(including a cross-claim or counterclaim in a lawsuit) alleging that
1a5a38
any patent claim is infringed by making, using, selling, offering for
1a5a38
sale, or importing the Program or any portion of it.
1a5a38
1a5a38
#### 11. Patents.
1a5a38
1a5a38
A "contributor" is a copyright holder who authorizes use under this
1a5a38
License of the Program or a work on which the Program is based. The
1a5a38
work thus licensed is called the contributor's "contributor version".
1a5a38
1a5a38
A contributor's "essential patent claims" are all patent claims owned
1a5a38
or controlled by the contributor, whether already acquired or
1a5a38
hereafter acquired, that would be infringed by some manner, permitted
1a5a38
by this License, of making, using, or selling its contributor version,
1a5a38
but do not include claims that would be infringed only as a
1a5a38
consequence of further modification of the contributor version. For
1a5a38
purposes of this definition, "control" includes the right to grant
1a5a38
patent sublicenses in a manner consistent with the requirements of
1a5a38
this License.
1a5a38
1a5a38
Each contributor grants you a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free
1a5a38
patent license under the contributor's essential patent claims, to
1a5a38
make, use, sell, offer for sale, import and otherwise run, modify and
1a5a38
propagate the contents of its contributor version.
1a5a38
1a5a38
In the following three paragraphs, a "patent license" is any express
1a5a38
agreement or commitment, however denominated, not to enforce a patent
1a5a38
(such as an express permission to practice a patent or covenant not to
1a5a38
sue for patent infringement). To "grant" such a patent license to a
1a5a38
party means to make such an agreement or commitment not to enforce a
1a5a38
patent against the party.
1a5a38
1a5a38
If you convey a covered work, knowingly relying on a patent license,
1a5a38
and the Corresponding Source of the work is not available for anyone
1a5a38
to copy, free of charge and under the terms of this License, through a
1a5a38
publicly available network server or other readily accessible means,
1a5a38
then you must either (1) cause the Corresponding Source to be so
1a5a38
available, or (2) arrange to deprive yourself of the benefit of the
1a5a38
patent license for this particular work, or (3) arrange, in a manner
1a5a38
consistent with the requirements of this License, to extend the patent
1a5a38
license to downstream recipients. "Knowingly relying" means you have
1a5a38
actual knowledge that, but for the patent license, your conveying the
1a5a38
covered work in a country, or your recipient's use of the covered work
1a5a38
in a country, would infringe one or more identifiable patents in that
1a5a38
country that you have reason to believe are valid.
1a5a38
1a5a38
If, pursuant to or in connection with a single transaction or
1a5a38
arrangement, you convey, or propagate by procuring conveyance of, a
1a5a38
covered work, and grant a patent license to some of the parties
1a5a38
receiving the covered work authorizing them to use, propagate, modify
1a5a38
or convey a specific copy of the covered work, then the patent license
1a5a38
you grant is automatically extended to all recipients of the covered
1a5a38
work and works based on it.
1a5a38
1a5a38
A patent license is "discriminatory" if it does not include within the
1a5a38
scope of its coverage, prohibits the exercise of, or is conditioned on
1a5a38
the non-exercise of one or more of the rights that are specifically
1a5a38
granted under this License. You may not convey a covered work if you
1a5a38
are a party to an arrangement with a third party that is in the
1a5a38
business of distributing software, under which you make payment to the
1a5a38
third party based on the extent of your activity of conveying the
1a5a38
work, and under which the third party grants, to any of the parties
1a5a38
who would receive the covered work from you, a discriminatory patent
1a5a38
license (a) in connection with copies of the covered work conveyed by
1a5a38
you (or copies made from those copies), or (b) primarily for and in
1a5a38
connection with specific products or compilations that contain the
1a5a38
covered work, unless you entered into that arrangement, or that patent
1a5a38
license was granted, prior to 28 March 2007.
1a5a38
1a5a38
Nothing in this License shall be construed as excluding or limiting
1a5a38
any implied license or other defenses to infringement that may
1a5a38
otherwise be available to you under applicable patent law.
1a5a38
1a5a38
#### 12. No Surrender of Others' Freedom.
1a5a38
1a5a38
If conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or
1a5a38
otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not
1a5a38
excuse you from the conditions of this License. If you cannot convey a
1a5a38
covered work so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under
1a5a38
this License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a
1a5a38
consequence you may not convey it at all. For example, if you agree to
1a5a38
terms that obligate you to collect a royalty for further conveying
1a5a38
from those to whom you convey the Program, the only way you could
1a5a38
satisfy both those terms and this License would be to refrain entirely
1a5a38
from conveying the Program.
1a5a38
1a5a38
#### 13. Use with the GNU Affero General Public License.
1a5a38
1a5a38
Notwithstanding any other provision of this License, you have
1a5a38
permission to link or combine any covered work with a work licensed
1a5a38
under version 3 of the GNU Affero General Public License into a single
1a5a38
combined work, and to convey the resulting work. The terms of this
1a5a38
License will continue to apply to the part which is the covered work,
1a5a38
but the special requirements of the GNU Affero General Public License,
1a5a38
section 13, concerning interaction through a network will apply to the
1a5a38
combination as such.
1a5a38
1a5a38
#### 14. Revised Versions of this License.
1a5a38
1a5a38
The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions
1a5a38
of the GNU General Public License from time to time. Such new versions
1a5a38
will be similar in spirit to the present version, but may differ in
1a5a38
detail to address new problems or concerns.
1a5a38
1a5a38
Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the Program
1a5a38
specifies that a certain numbered version of the GNU General Public
1a5a38
License "or any later version" applies to it, you have the option of
1a5a38
following the terms and conditions either of that numbered version or
1a5a38
of any later version published by the Free Software Foundation. If the
1a5a38
Program does not specify a version number of the GNU General Public
1a5a38
License, you may choose any version ever published by the Free
1a5a38
Software Foundation.
1a5a38
1a5a38
If the Program specifies that a proxy can decide which future versions
1a5a38
of the GNU General Public License can be used, that proxy's public
1a5a38
statement of acceptance of a version permanently authorizes you to
1a5a38
choose that version for the Program.
1a5a38
1a5a38
Later license versions may give you additional or different
1a5a38
permissions. However, no additional obligations are imposed on any
1a5a38
author or copyright holder as a result of your choosing to follow a
1a5a38
later version.
1a5a38
1a5a38
#### 15. Disclaimer of Warranty.
1a5a38
1a5a38
THERE IS NO WARRANTY FOR THE PROGRAM, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY
1a5a38
APPLICABLE LAW. EXCEPT WHEN OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT
1a5a38
HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER PARTIES PROVIDE THE PROGRAM "AS IS" WITHOUT
1a5a38
WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT
1a5a38
LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR
1a5a38
A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY AND
1a5a38
PERFORMANCE OF THE PROGRAM IS WITH YOU. SHOULD THE PROGRAM PROVE
1a5a38
DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE COST OF ALL NECESSARY SERVICING, REPAIR OR
1a5a38
CORRECTION.
1a5a38
1a5a38
#### 16. Limitation of Liability.
1a5a38
1a5a38
IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN WRITING
1a5a38
WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MODIFIES AND/OR
1a5a38
CONVEYS THE PROGRAM AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES,
1a5a38
INCLUDING ANY GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES
1a5a38
ARISING OUT OF THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT
1a5a38
NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED INACCURATE OR
1a5a38
LOSSES SUSTAINED BY YOU OR THIRD PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF THE PROGRAM
1a5a38
TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER PROGRAMS), EVEN IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER
1a5a38
PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
1a5a38
1a5a38
#### 17. Interpretation of Sections 15 and 16.
1a5a38
1a5a38
If the disclaimer of warranty and limitation of liability provided
1a5a38
above cannot be given local legal effect according to their terms,
1a5a38
reviewing courts shall apply local law that most closely approximates
1a5a38
an absolute waiver of all civil liability in connection with the
1a5a38
Program, unless a warranty or assumption of liability accompanies a
1a5a38
copy of the Program in return for a fee.
1a5a38
1a5a38
END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS
1a5a38
1a5a38
### How to Apply These Terms to Your New Programs
1a5a38
1a5a38
If you develop a new program, and you want it to be of the greatest
1a5a38
possible use to the public, the best way to achieve this is to make it
1a5a38
free software which everyone can redistribute and change under these
1a5a38
terms.
1a5a38
1a5a38
To do so, attach the following notices to the program. It is safest to
1a5a38
attach them to the start of each source file to most effectively state
1a5a38
the exclusion of warranty; and each file should have at least the
1a5a38
"copyright" line and a pointer to where the full notice is found.
1a5a38
1a5a38
        <one line to give the program's name and a brief idea of what it does.>
1a5a38
        Copyright (C) <year>  <name of author>
1a5a38
1a5a38
        This program is free software: you can redistribute it and/or modify
1a5a38
        it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by
1a5a38
        the Free Software Foundation, either version 3 of the License, or
1a5a38
        (at your option) any later version.
1a5a38
1a5a38
        This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful,
1a5a38
        but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of
1a5a38
        MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.  See the
1a5a38
        GNU General Public License for more details.
1a5a38
1a5a38
        You should have received a copy of the GNU General Public License
1a5a38
        along with this program.  If not, see <https://www.gnu.org/licenses/>.
1a5a38
1a5a38
Also add information on how to contact you by electronic and paper
1a5a38
mail.
1a5a38
1a5a38
If the program does terminal interaction, make it output a short
1a5a38
notice like this when it starts in an interactive mode:
1a5a38
1a5a38
        <program>  Copyright (C) <year>  <name of author>
1a5a38
        This program comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY; for details type `show w'.
1a5a38
        This is free software, and you are welcome to redistribute it
1a5a38
        under certain conditions; type `show c' for details.
1a5a38
1a5a38
The hypothetical commands \`show w' and \`show c' should show the
1a5a38
appropriate parts of the General Public License. Of course, your
1a5a38
program's commands might be different; for a GUI interface, you would
1a5a38
use an "about box".
1a5a38
1a5a38
You should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer) or
1a5a38
school, if any, to sign a "copyright disclaimer" for the program, if
1a5a38
necessary. For more information on this, and how to apply and follow
1a5a38
the GNU GPL, see <https://www.gnu.org/licenses/>.
1a5a38
1a5a38
The GNU General Public License does not permit incorporating your
1a5a38
program into proprietary programs. If your program is a subroutine
1a5a38
library, you may consider it more useful to permit linking proprietary
1a5a38
applications with the library. If this is what you want to do, use the
1a5a38
GNU Lesser General Public License instead of this License. But first,
1a5a38
please read <https://www.gnu.org/licenses/why-not-lgpl.html>.
