- <section>
- <title>Preamble</title>
- <para> The licenses for most software are designed to take away your
- freedom to share and change it. By contrast, the GNU General Public License is
- intended to guarantee your freedom to share and change
- free software - to make sure the software is free for all its users.
- This General Public License applies to most of the Free Software
- Foundation's software and to any other program whose authors commit
- to using it. (Some other Free Software Foundation software is covered
- by the GNU Library General Public License instead.) You can apply it
- to your programs, too.
- </para>
- <para> When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not price.
- Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that you have the
- freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge for this
- service if you wish), that you receive source code or can get it if you
- want it, that you can change the software or use pieces of it in new free
- programs ; and that you know you can do these things.
- </para>
- <para> To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that forbid anyone
- to deny you these rights or to ask you to surrender the rights. These
- restrictions translate to certain responsibilities for you if you distribute
- copies of the software, or if you modify it.
- </para>
- <para> For example, if you distribute copies of such a program, whether gratis or
- for a fee, you must give the recipients all the rights that you have. You
- must make sure that they, too, receive or can get the source code. And you
- must show them these terms so they know their rights.
- </para>
- <para> We protect your rights with two steps:</para>
- <itemizedlist>
- <listitem>
- <para> copyright the software, and
- </para>
- </listitem>
- <listitem>
- <para> offer you this license which gives you legal permission to copy,
- distribute and/or modify the software.
- </para>
- </listitem>
- </itemizedlist>
- <para> Also, for each author's protection and ours, we want to make certain that
- everyone understands that there is no warranty for this free software. If
- the software is modified by someone else and passed on, we want its
- recipients to know that what they have is not the original, so that any
- problems introduced by others will not reflect on the original authors'
- reputations.
- </para>
- <para> Finally, any free program is threatened constantly by software patents.
- We wish to avoid the danger that redistributors of a free program will
- individually obtain patent licenses, in effect making the program
- proprietary. To prevent this, we have made it clear that any patent must be
- licensed for everyone's free use or not licensed at all.
- </para>
- <para> The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and modification
- follow.
- </para>
- </section>
- <section>
- <title>TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION</title>
- <section>
- <title>Section 0</title>
- <para> This License applies to any program or other work which contains a notice
- placed by the copyright holder saying it may be distributed under the terms
- of this General Public License. The "Program", below, refers to any such
- program or work, and a
- <quote>work based on the Program
- </quote> means either
- the Program or any derivative work under copyright law: that is to say, a
- work containing the Program or a portion of it, either verbatim or with
- modifications and/or translated into another language. (Hereinafter, translation
- is included without limitation in the term
- <quote>modification
- </quote>.) Each licensee is addressed as <quote>you</quote>.
- </para>
- <para> Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are not covered by
- this License; they are outside its scope. The act of running the Program is not
- restricted, and the output from the Program is covered only if its contents
- constitute a work based on the Program (independent of having been made by running
- the Program). Whether that is true depends on what the Program does.
- </para>
- </section>
- <section>
- <title>Section 1</title>
- <para> You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Program's source code as you
- receive it, in any medium, provided that you conspicuously and appropriately
- publish on each copy an appropriate copyright notice and disclaimer of warranty;
- keep intact all the notices that refer to this License and to the absence of any
- warranty; and give any other recipients of the Program a copy of this License
- along with the Program.
- </para>
- <para> You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy, and you may at
- your option offer warranty protection in exchange for a fee.
- </para>
- </section>
- <section>
- <title>Section 2</title>
- <para> You may modify your copy or copies of the Program or any portion of it, thus
- forming a work based on the Program, and copy and distribute such modifications
- or work under the terms of Section 1 above, provided
- that you also meet all of these conditions:</para>
- <itemizedlist>
- <listitem>
- <para> You must cause the modified files to carry prominent notices stating that
- you changed the files and the date of any change.
- </para>
- </listitem>
- <listitem>
- <para> You must cause any work that you distribute or publish, that in whole or
- in part contains or is derived from the Program or any part thereof, to be
- licensed as a whole at no charge to all third parties under the terms of
- this License.
- </para>
- </listitem>
- <listitem>
- <para> If the modified program normally reads commands interactively when run, you
- must cause it, when started running for such interactive use in the most
- ordinary way, to print or display an announcement including an appropriate
- copyright notice and a notice that there is no warranty (or else, saying
- that you provide a warranty) and that users may redistribute the program
- under these conditions, and telling the user how to view a copy of this
- License. </para>
- <blockquote>
- <title>Exception:
- </title>
- <para> If the Program itself is interactive but does not normally print such an
- announcement, your work based on the Program is not required to print an
- announcement.)
- </para>
- </blockquote>
- </listitem>
- </itemizedlist>
- <para> These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole. If identifiable sections
- of that work are not derived from the Program, and can be reasonably considered
- independent and separate works in themselves, then this License, and its terms,
- do not apply to those sections when you distribute them as separate works. But when
- you distribute the same sections as part of a whole which is a work based on the
- Program, the distribution of the whole must be on the terms of this License, whose
- permissions for other licensees extend to the entire whole, and thus to each and
- every part regardless of who wrote it.
- </para>
- <para> Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest your rights
- to work written entirely by you; rather, the intent is to exercise the right to control
- the distribution of derivative or collective works based on the Program.
- </para>
- <para> In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the Program with the Program
- (or with a work based on the Program) on a volume of a storage or distribution medium
- does not bring the other work under the scope of this License.
- </para>
- </section>
- <section>
- <title>Section 3
- </title>
- <para> You may copy and distribute the Program (or a work based on it, under
- Section 2 in object code or executable form under the terms of
- Sections 1 and 2 above provided that you also do one of the following:
- </para>
- <itemizedlist>
- <listitem>
- <para> Accompany it with the complete corresponding machine-readable source code, which
- must be distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium
- customarily used for software interchange; or,
- </para>
- </listitem>
- <listitem>
- <para> Accompany it with a written offer, valid for at least three years, to give any
- third party, for a charge no more than your cost of physically performing source
- distribution, a complete machine-readable copy of the corresponding source code,
- to be distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium customarily
- used for software interchange; or,
- </para>
- </listitem>
- <listitem>
- <para> Accompany it with the information you received as to the offer to distribute
- corresponding source code. (This alternative is allowed only for noncommercial
- distribution and only if you received the program in object code or executable form
- with such an offer, in accord with Subsection b above.)
- </para>
- </listitem>
- </itemizedlist>
- <para> The source code for a work means the preferred form of the work for making modifications
- to it. For an executable work, complete source code means all the source code for all modules
- it contains, plus any associated interface definition files, plus the scripts used to control
- compilation and installation of the executable. However, as a special exception, the source
- code distributed need not include anything that is normally distributed (in either source or
- binary form) with the major components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of the operating system
- on which the executable runs, unless that component itself accompanies the executable.
- </para>
- <para> If distribution of executable or object code is made by offering access to copy from a
- designated place, then offering equivalent access to copy the source code from the same place
- counts as distribution of the source code, even though third parties are not compelled to
- copy the source along with the object code.
- </para>
- </section>
- <section>
- <title>Section 4
- </title>
- <para> You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the Program except as expressly provided
- under this License. Any attempt otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense or distribute the
- Program is void, and will automatically terminate your rights under this License. However,
- parties who have received copies, or rights, from you under this License will not have their
- licenses terminated so long as such parties remain in full compliance.
- </para>
- </section>
- <section>
- <title>Section 5
- </title>
- <para> You are not required to accept this License, since you have not signed it. However, nothing
- else grants you permission to modify or distribute the Program or its derivative works.
- These actions are prohibited by law if you do not accept this License. Therefore, by modifying
- or distributing the Program (or any work based on the Program), you indicate your acceptance
- of this License to do so, and all its terms and conditions for copying, distributing or
- modifying the Program or works based on it.
- </para>
- </section>
- <section>
- <title>Section 6
- </title>
- <para> Each time you redistribute the Program (or any work based on the Program), the recipient
- automatically receives a license from the original licensor to copy, distribute or modify
- the Program subject to these terms and conditions. You may not impose any further restrictions
- on the recipients' exercise of the rights granted herein. You are not responsible for enforcing
- compliance by third parties to this License.
- </para>
- </section>
- <section>
- <title>Section 7
- </title>
- <para> If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent infringement or for any other
- reason (not limited to patent issues), conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order,
- agreement or otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not excuse you
- from the conditions of this License. If you cannot distribute so as to satisfy simultaneously
- your obligations under this License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence
- you may not distribute the Program at all. For example, if a patent license would not permit
- royalty-free redistribution of the Program by all those who receive copies directly or
- indirectly through you, then the only way you could satisfy both it and this License would be
- to refrain entirely from distribution of the Program.
- </para>
- <para> If any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable under any particular circumstance,
- the balance of the section is intended to apply and the section as a whole is intended to apply
- in other circumstances.
- </para>
- <para> It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe any patents or other property
- right claims or to contest validity of any such claims; this section has the sole purpose of
- protecting the integrity of the free software distribution system, which is implemented by public
- license practices. Many people have made generous contributions to the wide range of software
- distributed through that system in reliance on consistent application of that system; it is up
- to the author/donor to decide if he or she is willing to distribute software through any other
- system and a licensee cannot impose that choice.
- </para>
- <para> This section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is believed to be a consequence of the
- rest of this License.
- </para>
- </section>
- <section>
- <title>Section 8
- </title>
- <para> If the distribution and/or use of the Program is restricted in certain countries either by patents
- or by copyrighted interfaces, the original copyright holder who places the Program under this License
- may add an explicit geographical distribution limitation excluding those countries, so that
- distribution is permitted only in or among countries not thus excluded. In such case, this License
- incorporates the limitation as if written in the body of this License.
- </para>
- </section>
- <section>
- <title>Section 9
- </title>
- <para> The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions of the General Public License
- from time to time. Such new versions will be similar in spirit to the present version, but may differ
- in detail to address new problems or concerns.
- </para>
- <para> Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the Program specifies a version number of
- this License which applies to it and "any later version", you have the option of following the terms
- and conditions either of that version or of any later version published by the Free Software
- Foundation. If the Program does not specify a version number of this License, you may choose any
- version ever published by the Free Software Foundation.
- </para>
- </section>
- <section>
- <title>Section 10
- </title>
- <para> If you wish to incorporate parts of the Program into other free programs whose distribution
- conditions are different, write to the author to ask for permission. For software which is copyrighted
- by the Free Software Foundation, write to the Free Software Foundation; we sometimes make exceptions
- for this. Our decision will be guided by the two goals of preserving the free status of all
- derivatives of our free software and of promoting the sharing and reuse of software generally.
- </para>
- </section>
- <section>
-<title>NO WARRANTY Section 11
- </title>
- <para> BECAUSE THE PROGRAM IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE, THERE IS NO WARRANTY FOR THE PROGRAM, TO THE EXTENT
- PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW. EXCEPT WHEN OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS AND/OR
- OTHER PARTIES PROVIDE THE PROGRAM "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED,
- INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR
- PURPOSE. THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE PROGRAM IS WITH YOU. SHOULD THE
- PROGRAM PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE COST OF ALL NECESSARY SERVICING, REPAIR OR CORRECTION.
- </para>
- </section>
- <section>
- <title>Section 12
- </title>
- <para> IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN WRITING WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR
- ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MAY MODIFY AND/OR REDISTRIBUTE THE PROGRAM AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU
- FOR DAMAGES, INCLUDING ANY GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THE
- USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED
- INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY YOU OR THIRD PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF THE PROGRAM TO OPERATE WITH
- ANY OTHER PROGRAMS), EVEN IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH
- DAMAGES.

- <title>How to Apply These Terms to Your New Programs
- </title>
- <para>
- If you develop a new program, and you want it to be of the greatest
- possible use to the public, the best way to achieve this is to make it
- free software which everyone can redistribute and change under these terms.
- </para>
- <para>
- To do so, attach the following notices to the program. It is safest
- to attach them to the start of each source file to most effectively
- convey the exclusion of warranty; and each file should have at least
- the "copyright" line and a pointer to where the full notice is found.
- </para>
- <para>
- <one line to give the program's name and a brief idea of what it does.>
- Copyright (C) <year> <name of author>
- </para>
- <para>
- This program is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify
- it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by
- the Free Software Foundation; either version 2 of the License, or
- (at your option) any later version.
- </para>
- <para>
- This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful,
- but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of
- MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. See the
- GNU General Public License for more details.
- </para>
- <para>
- You should have received a copy of the GNU General Public License
- along with this program; if not, write to the Free Software
- Foundation, Inc., 51 Franklin Street, Fifth Floor, Boston, MA 02110-1301 USA
- </para>
- <para>
- Also add information on how to contact you by electronic and paper mail.
- </para>
- <para>
- If the program is interactive, make it output a short notice like this
- when it starts in an interactive mode:
- </para>
- <para>
- Gnomovision version 69, Copyright (C) year name of author
- Gnomovision comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY; for details type `show w'.
- This is free software, and you are welcome to redistribute it
- under certain conditions; type `show c' for details.
- </para>
- <para>
- The hypothetical commands `show w' and `show c' should show the appropriate
- parts of the General Public License. Of course, the commands you use may
- be called something other than `show w' and `show c'; they could even be
- mouse-clicks or menu items--whatever suits your program.
- </para>
- <para>
- You should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer) or your
- school, if any, to sign a "copyright disclaimer" for the program, if
- necessary. Here is a sample; alter the names:

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