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