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

  292. This General Public License does not permit incorporating your program into
  293. proprietary programs. If your program is a subroutine library, you may
  294. consider it more useful to permit linking proprietary applications with the
  295. library. If this is what you want to do, use the GNU Library General
  296. Public License instead of this License.
