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

|
| +@heading How to Apply These Terms to Your New Programs
|
| +
|
| +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.
|
| +
|
| +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
|
| +state the exclusion of warranty; and each file should have at least
|
| +the ``copyright'' line and a pointer to where the full notice is found.

|
| +the GNU Lesser General Public License instead of this License. But
