GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE

Version 2, June 1991
22+
23+
Copyright (C) 1989, 1991 Free Software Foundation, Inc.
24+
51 Franklin St, Fifth Floor, Boston, MA 02110-1301 USA
25+
Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies
26+
of this license document, but changing it is not allowed.
27+
28+
Preamble
29+
30+
The licenses for most software are designed to take away your
31+
freedom to share and change it. By contrast, the GNU General Public
32+
License is intended to guarantee your freedom to share and change free
33+
software--to make sure the software is free for all its users. This
34+
General Public License applies to most of the Free Software
35+
Foundation's software and to any other program whose authors commit to
36+
using it. (Some other Free Software Foundation software is covered by
37+
the GNU Library General Public License instead.) You can apply it to
38+
your programs, too.
39+
40+
When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not
41+
price. Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that you
42+
have the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge for
43+
this service if you wish), that you receive source code or can get it
44+
if you want it, that you can change the software or use pieces of it
45+
in new free programs; and that you know you can do these things.
46+
47+
To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that forbid
48+
anyone to deny you these rights or to ask you to surrender the rights.
49+
These restrictions translate to certain responsibilities for you if you
50+
distribute copies of the software, or if you modify it.
51+
52+
For example, if you distribute copies of such a program, whether
53+
gratis or for a fee, you must give the recipients all the rights that
54+
you have. You must make sure that they, too, receive or can get the
55+
source code. And you must show them these terms so they know their
56+
rights.
57+
58+
We protect your rights with two steps: (1) copyright the software, and
59+
(2) offer you this license which gives you legal permission to copy,
60+
distribute and/or modify the software.
61+
62+
Also, for each author's protection and ours, we want to make certain
63+
that everyone understands that there is no warranty for this free
64+
software. If the software is modified by someone else and passed on, we
65+
want its recipients to know that what they have is not the original, so
66+
that any problems introduced by others will not reflect on the original
67+
authors' reputations.
68+
69+
Finally, any free program is threatened constantly by software
70+
patents. We wish to avoid the danger that redistributors of a free
71+
program will individually obtain patent licenses, in effect making the
72+
program proprietary. To prevent this, we have made it clear that any
73+
patent must be licensed for everyone's free use or not licensed at all.
74+
75+
The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and
76+
modification follow.
77+
78+
GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE
79+
TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION
80+
81+
0. This License applies to any program or other work which contains
82+
a notice placed by the copyright holder saying it may be distributed
83+
under the terms of this General Public License. The "Program", below,
84+
refers to any such program or work, and a "work based on the Program"
85+
means either the Program or any derivative work under copyright law:
86+
that is to say, a work containing the Program or a portion of it,
87+
either verbatim or with modifications and/or translated into another
88+
language. (Hereinafter, translation is included without limitation in
89+
the term "modification".) Each licensee is addressed as "you".
90+
91+
Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are not
92+
covered by this License; they are outside its scope. The act of
93+
running the Program is not restricted, and the output from the Program
94+
is covered only if its contents constitute a work based on the
95+
Program (independent of having been made by running the Program).
96+
Whether that is true depends on what the Program does.
97+
98+
1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Program's
99+
source code as you receive it, in any medium, provided that you
100+
conspicuously and appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate
101+
copyright notice and disclaimer of warranty; keep intact all the
102+
notices that refer to this License and to the absence of any warranty;
103+
and give any other recipients of the Program a copy of this License
104+
along with the Program.
105+
106+
You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy, and
107+
you may at your option offer warranty protection in exchange for a fee.
108+
109+
2. You may modify your copy or copies of the Program or any portion
110+
of it, thus forming a work based on the Program, and copy and
111+
distribute such modifications or work under the terms of Section 1
112+
above, provided that you also meet all of these conditions:
113+
114+
a) You must cause the modified files to carry prominent notices
115+
stating that you changed the files and the date of any change.
116+
117+
b) You must cause any work that you distribute or publish, that in
118+
whole or in part contains or is derived from the Program or any
119+
part thereof, to be licensed as a whole at no charge to all third
120+
parties under the terms of this License.
121+
122+
c) If the modified program normally reads commands interactively
123+
when run, you must cause it, when started running for such
124+
interactive use in the most ordinary way, to print or display an
125+
announcement including an appropriate copyright notice and a
126+
notice that there is no warranty (or else, saying that you provide
127+
a warranty) and that users may redistribute the program under
128+
these conditions, and telling the user how to view a copy of this
129+
License. (Exception: if the Program itself is interactive but
130+
does not normally print such an announcement, your work based on
131+
the Program is not required to print an announcement.)
132+
133+
These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole. If
134+
identifiable sections of that work are not derived from the Program,
135+
and can be reasonably considered independent and separate works in
136+
themselves, then this License, and its terms, do not apply to those
137+
sections when you distribute them as separate works. But when you
138+
distribute the same sections as part of a whole which is a work based
139+
on the Program, the distribution of the whole must be on the terms of
140+
this License, whose permissions for other licensees extend to the
141+
entire whole, and thus to each and every part regardless of who wrote it.
142+
143+
Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest
144+
your rights to work written entirely by you; rather, the intent is to
145+
exercise the right to control the distribution of derivative or
146+
collective works based on the Program.
147+
148+
In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the Program
149+
with the Program (or with a work based on the Program) on a volume of
150+
a storage or distribution medium does not bring the other work under
151+
the scope of this License.
152+
153+
3. You may copy and distribute the Program (or a work based on it,
154+
under Section 2) in object code or executable form under the terms of
155+
Sections 1 and 2 above provided that you also do one of the following:
156+
157+
a) Accompany it with the complete corresponding machine-readable
158+
source code, which must be distributed under the terms of Sections
159+
1 and 2 above on a medium customarily used for software interchange; or,
160+
161+
b) Accompany it with a written offer, valid for at least three
162+
years, to give any third party, for a charge no more than your
163+
cost of physically performing source distribution, a complete
164+
machine-readable copy of the corresponding source code, to be
165+
distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium
166+
customarily used for software interchange; or,
167+
168+
c) Accompany it with the information you received as to the offer
169+
to distribute corresponding source code. (This alternative is
170+
allowed only for noncommercial distribution and only if you
171+
received the program in object code or executable form with such
172+
an offer, in accord with Subsection b above.)
173+
174+
The source code for a work means the preferred form of the work for
175+
making modifications to it. For an executable work, complete source
176+
code means all the source code for all modules it contains, plus any
177+
associated interface definition files, plus the scripts used to
178+
control compilation and installation of the executable. However, as a
179+
special exception, the source code distributed need not include
180+
anything that is normally distributed (in either source or binary
181+
form) with the major components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of the
182+
operating system on which the executable runs, unless that component
183+
itself accompanies the executable.
184+
185+
If distribution of executable or object code is made by offering
186+
access to copy from a designated place, then offering equivalent
187+
access to copy the source code from the same place counts as
188+
distribution of the source code, even though third parties are not
189+
compelled to copy the source along with the object code.
190+
191+
4. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the Program
192+
except as expressly provided under this License. Any attempt
193+
otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense or distribute the Program is
194+
void, and will automatically terminate your rights under this License.
195+
However, parties who have received copies, or rights, from you under
196+
this License will not have their licenses terminated so long as such
197+
parties remain in full compliance.
198+
199+
5. You are not required to accept this License, since you have not
200+
signed it. However, nothing else grants you permission to modify or
201+
distribute the Program or its derivative works. These actions are
202+
prohibited by law if you do not accept this License. Therefore, by
203+
modifying or distributing the Program (or any work based on the
204+
Program), you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so, and
205+
all its terms and conditions for copying, distributing or modifying
206+
the Program or works based on it.
207+
208+
6. Each time you redistribute the Program (or any work based on the
209+
Program), the recipient automatically receives a license from the
210+
original licensor to copy, distribute or modify the Program subject to
211+
these terms and conditions. You may not impose any further
212+
restrictions on the recipients' exercise of the rights granted herein.
213+
You are not responsible for enforcing compliance by third parties to
214+
this License.
215+
216+
7. If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent
217+
infringement or for any other reason (not limited to patent issues),
218+
conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or
219+
otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not
220+
excuse you from the conditions of this License. If you cannot
221+
distribute so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this
222+
License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you
223+
may not distribute the Program at all. For example, if a patent
224+
license would not permit royalty-free redistribution of the Program by
225+
all those who receive copies directly or indirectly through you, then
226+
the only way you could satisfy both it and this License would be to
227+
refrain entirely from distribution of the Program.
228+
229+
If any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable under
230+
any particular circumstance, the balance of the section is intended to
231+
apply and the section as a whole is intended to apply in other
232+
circumstances.
233+
234+
It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe any
235+
patents or other property right claims or to contest validity of any
236+
such claims; this section has the sole purpose of protecting the
237+
integrity of the free software distribution system, which is
238+
implemented by public license practices. Many people have made
239+
generous contributions to the wide range of software distributed
240+
through that system in reliance on consistent application of that
241+
system; it is up to the author/donor to decide if he or she is willing
242+
to distribute software through any other system and a licensee cannot
243+
impose that choice.
244+
245+
This section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is believed to
246+
be a consequence of the rest of this License.
247+
248+
8. If the distribution and/or use of the Program is restricted in
249+
certain countries either by patents or by copyrighted interfaces, the
250+
original copyright holder who places the Program under this License
251+
may add an explicit geographical distribution limitation excluding
252+
those countries, so that distribution is permitted only in or among
253+
countries not thus excluded. In such case, this License incorporates
254+
the limitation as if written in the body of this License.
255+
256+
9. The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions
257+
of the General Public License from time to time. Such new versions will
258+
be similar in spirit to the present version, but may differ in detail to
259+
address new problems or concerns.
260+
261+
Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the Program
262+
specifies a version number of this License which applies to it and "any
263+
later version", you have the option of following the terms and conditions
264+
either of that version or of any later version published by the Free
265+
Software Foundation. If the Program does not specify a version number of
266+
this License, you may choose any version ever published by the Free Software
267+
Foundation.
268+
269+
10. If you wish to incorporate parts of the Program into other free
270+
programs whose distribution conditions are different, write to the author
271+
to ask for permission. For software which is copyrighted by the Free
272+
Software Foundation, write to the Free Software Foundation; we sometimes
273+
make exceptions for this. Our decision will be guided by the two goals
274+
of preserving the free status of all derivatives of our free software and
275+
of promoting the sharing and reuse of software generally.
276+
277+
NO WARRANTY
278+
279+
11. BECAUSE THE PROGRAM IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE, THERE IS NO WARRANTY
280+
FOR THE PROGRAM, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW. EXCEPT WHEN
281+
OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER PARTIES
282+
PROVIDE THE PROGRAM "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED
283+
OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF
284+
MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. THE ENTIRE RISK AS
285+
TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE PROGRAM IS WITH YOU. SHOULD THE
286+
PROGRAM PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE COST OF ALL NECESSARY SERVICING,
287+
REPAIR OR CORRECTION.
288+
289+
12. IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN WRITING
290+
WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MAY MODIFY AND/OR
291+
REDISTRIBUTE THE PROGRAM AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES,
292+
INCLUDING ANY GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING
293+
OUT OF THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED
294+
TO LOSS OF DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY
295+
YOU OR THIRD PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF THE PROGRAM TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER
296+
PROGRAMS), EVEN IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE
297+
POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
298+
299+
END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS
300+
301+
How to Apply These Terms to Your New Programs
302+
303+
If you develop a new program, and you want it to be of the greatest
304+
possible use to the public, the best way to achieve this is to make it
305+
free software which everyone can redistribute and change under these terms.
306+
307+
To do so, attach the following notices to the program. It is safest
308+
to attach them to the start of each source file to most effectively
309+
convey the exclusion of warranty; and each file should have at least
310+
the "copyright" line and a pointer to where the full notice is found.
311+
312+
<one line to give the program's name and a brief idea of what it does.>
313+
Copyright (C) <year> <name of author>
314+
315+
This program is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify
316+
it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by
317+
the Free Software Foundation; either version 2 of the License, or
318+
(at your option) any later version.
319+
320+
This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful,
321+
but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of
322+
MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. See the
323+
GNU General Public License for more details.
324+
325+
You should have received a copy of the GNU General Public License
326+
along with this program; if not, write to the Free Software
327+
Foundation, Inc., 51 Franklin St, Fifth Floor, Boston, MA 02110-1301 USA
328+
329+
330+
Also add information on how to contact you by electronic and paper mail.
331+
332+
If the program is interactive, make it output a short notice like this
333+
when it starts in an interactive mode:
334+
335+
Gnomovision version 69, Copyright (C) year name of author
336+
Gnomovision comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY; for details type `show w'.
337+
This is free software, and you are welcome to redistribute it
338+
under certain conditions; type `show c' for details.
339+
340+
The hypothetical commands `show w' and `show c' should show the appropriate
341+
parts of the General Public License. Of course, the commands you use may
342+
be called something other than `show w' and `show c'; they could even be
343+
mouse-clicks or menu items--whatever suits your program.
344+
345+
You should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer) or your
346+
school, if any, to sign a "copyright disclaimer" for the program, if
347+
necessary. Here is a sample; alter the names:
348+
349+
Yoyodyne, Inc., hereby disclaims all copyright interest in the program
350+
`Gnomovision' (which makes passes at compilers) written by James Hacker.
351+
352+
<signature of Ty Coon>, 1 April 1989
353+
Ty Coon, President of Vice
354+
355+
This General Public License does not permit incorporating your program into
356+
proprietary programs. If your program is a subroutine library, you may
357+
consider it more useful to permit linking proprietary applications with the
358+
library. If this is what you want to do, use the GNU Library General
359+
Public License instead of this License.
