1− GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE
2− Version 2, June 1991
3−
4− Copyright (C) 1989, 1991 Free Software Foundation, Inc.,
5− 51 Franklin Street, Fifth Floor, Boston, MA 02110-1301 USA
6− Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies
7− of this license document, but changing it is not allowed.
8−
9− Preamble
10−
11− The licenses for most software are designed to take away your
12−freedom to share and change it. By contrast, the GNU General Public
13−License is intended to guarantee your freedom to share and change free
14−software--to make sure the software is free for all its users. This
15−General Public License applies to most of the Free Software
16−Foundation's software and to any other program whose authors commit to
17−using it. (Some other Free Software Foundation software is covered by
18−the GNU Lesser General Public License instead.) You can apply it to
19−your programs, too.
20−
21− When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not
22−price. Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that you
23−have the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge for
24−this service if you wish), that you receive source code or can get it
25−if you want it, that you can change the software or use pieces of it
26−in new free programs; and that you know you can do these things.
27−
28− To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that forbid
29−anyone to deny you these rights or to ask you to surrender the rights.
30−These restrictions translate to certain responsibilities for you if you
31−distribute copies of the software, or if you modify it.
32−
33− For example, if you distribute copies of such a program, whether
34−gratis or for a fee, you must give the recipients all the rights that
35−you have. You must make sure that they, too, receive or can get the
36−source code. And you must show them these terms so they know their
37−rights.
38−
39− We protect your rights with two steps: (1) copyright the software, and
40−(2) offer you this license which gives you legal permission to copy,
41−distribute and/or modify the software.
42−
43− Also, for each author's protection and ours, we want to make certain
44−that everyone understands that there is no warranty for this free
45−software. If the software is modified by someone else and passed on, we
46−want its recipients to know that what they have is not the original, so
47−that any problems introduced by others will not reflect on the original
48−authors' reputations.
49−
50− Finally, any free program is threatened constantly by software
51−patents. We wish to avoid the danger that redistributors of a free
52−program will individually obtain patent licenses, in effect making the
53−program proprietary. To prevent this, we have made it clear that any
54−patent must be licensed for everyone's free use or not licensed at all.
55−
56− The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and
57−modification follow.
58−
59− GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE
60− TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION
61−
62− 0. This License applies to any program or other work which contains
63−a notice placed by the copyright holder saying it may be distributed
64−under the terms of this General Public License. The "Program", below,
65−refers to any such program or work, and a "work based on the Program"
66−means either the Program or any derivative work under copyright law:
67−that is to say, a work containing the Program or a portion of it,
68−either verbatim or with modifications and/or translated into another
69−language. (Hereinafter, translation is included without limitation in
70−the term "modification".) Each licensee is addressed as "you".
71−
72−Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are not
73−covered by this License; they are outside its scope. The act of
74−running the Program is not restricted, and the output from the Program
75−is covered only if its contents constitute a work based on the
76−Program (independent of having been made by running the Program).
77−Whether that is true depends on what the Program does.
78−
79− 1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Program's
80−source code as you receive it, in any medium, provided that you
81−conspicuously and appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate
82−copyright notice and disclaimer of warranty; keep intact all the
83−notices that refer to this License and to the absence of any warranty;
84−and give any other recipients of the Program a copy of this License
85−along with the Program.
86−
87−You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy, and
88−you may at your option offer warranty protection in exchange for a fee.
89−
90− 2. You may modify your copy or copies of the Program or any portion
91−of it, thus forming a work based on the Program, and copy and
92−distribute such modifications or work under the terms of Section 1
93−above, provided that you also meet all of these conditions:
94−
95− a) You must cause the modified files to carry prominent notices
96− stating that you changed the files and the date of any change.
97−
98− b) You must cause any work that you distribute or publish, that in
99− whole or in part contains or is derived from the Program or any
100− part thereof, to be licensed as a whole at no charge to all third
101− parties under the terms of this License.
102−
103− c) If the modified program normally reads commands interactively
104− when run, you must cause it, when started running for such
105− interactive use in the most ordinary way, to print or display an
106− announcement including an appropriate copyright notice and a
107− notice that there is no warranty (or else, saying that you provide
108− a warranty) and that users may redistribute the program under
109− these conditions, and telling the user how to view a copy of this
110− License. (Exception: if the Program itself is interactive but
111− does not normally print such an announcement, your work based on
112− the Program is not required to print an announcement.)
113−
114−These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole. If
115−identifiable sections of that work are not derived from the Program,
116−and can be reasonably considered independent and separate works in
117−themselves, then this License, and its terms, do not apply to those
118−sections when you distribute them as separate works. But when you
119−distribute the same sections as part of a whole which is a work based
120−on the Program, the distribution of the whole must be on the terms of
121−this License, whose permissions for other licensees extend to the
122−entire whole, and thus to each and every part regardless of who wrote it.
123−
124−Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest
125−your rights to work written entirely by you; rather, the intent is to
126−exercise the right to control the distribution of derivative or
127−collective works based on the Program.
128−
129−In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the Program
130−with the Program (or with a work based on the Program) on a volume of
131−a storage or distribution medium does not bring the other work under
132−the scope of this License.
133−
134− 3. You may copy and distribute the Program (or a work based on it,
135−under Section 2) in object code or executable form under the terms of
136−Sections 1 and 2 above provided that you also do one of the following:
137−
138− a) Accompany it with the complete corresponding machine-readable
139− source code, which must be distributed under the terms of Sections
140− 1 and 2 above on a medium customarily used for software interchange; or,
141−
142− b) Accompany it with a written offer, valid for at least three
143− years, to give any third party, for a charge no more than your
144− cost of physically performing source distribution, a complete
145− machine-readable copy of the corresponding source code, to be
146− distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium
147− customarily used for software interchange; or,
148−
149− c) Accompany it with the information you received as to the offer
150− to distribute corresponding source code. (This alternative is
151− allowed only for noncommercial distribution and only if you
152− received the program in object code or executable form with such
153− an offer, in accord with Subsection b above.)
154−
155−The source code for a work means the preferred form of the work for
156−making modifications to it. For an executable work, complete source
157−code means all the source code for all modules it contains, plus any
158−associated interface definition files, plus the scripts used to
159−control compilation and installation of the executable. However, as a
160−special exception, the source code distributed need not include
161−anything that is normally distributed (in either source or binary
162−form) with the major components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of the
163−operating system on which the executable runs, unless that component
164−itself accompanies the executable.
165−
166−If distribution of executable or object code is made by offering
167−access to copy from a designated place, then offering equivalent
168−access to copy the source code from the same place counts as
169−distribution of the source code, even though third parties are not
170−compelled to copy the source along with the object code.
171−
172− 4. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the Program
173−except as expressly provided under this License. Any attempt
174−otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense or distribute the Program is
175−void, and will automatically terminate your rights under this License.
176−However, parties who have received copies, or rights, from you under
177−this License will not have their licenses terminated so long as such
178−parties remain in full compliance.
179−
180− 5. You are not required to accept this License, since you have not
181−signed it. However, nothing else grants you permission to modify or
182−distribute the Program or its derivative works. These actions are
183−prohibited by law if you do not accept this License. Therefore, by
184−modifying or distributing the Program (or any work based on the
185−Program), you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so, and
186−all its terms and conditions for copying, distributing or modifying
187−the Program or works based on it.
188−
189− 6. Each time you redistribute the Program (or any work based on the
190−Program), the recipient automatically receives a license from the
191−original licensor to copy, distribute or modify the Program subject to
192−these terms and conditions. You may not impose any further
193−restrictions on the recipients' exercise of the rights granted herein.
194−You are not responsible for enforcing compliance by third parties to
195−this License.
196−
197− 7. If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent
198−infringement or for any other reason (not limited to patent issues),
199−conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or
200−otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not
201−excuse you from the conditions of this License. If you cannot
202−distribute so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this
203−License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you
204−may not distribute the Program at all. For example, if a patent
205−license would not permit royalty-free redistribution of the Program by
206−all those who receive copies directly or indirectly through you, then
207−the only way you could satisfy both it and this License would be to
208−refrain entirely from distribution of the Program.
209−
210−If any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable under
211−any particular circumstance, the balance of the section is intended to
212−apply and the section as a whole is intended to apply in other
213−circumstances.
214−
215−It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe any
216−patents or other property right claims or to contest validity of any
217−such claims; this section has the sole purpose of protecting the
218−integrity of the free software distribution system, which is
219−implemented by public license practices. Many people have made
220−generous contributions to the wide range of software distributed
221−through that system in reliance on consistent application of that
222−system; it is up to the author/donor to decide if he or she is willing
223−to distribute software through any other system and a licensee cannot
224−impose that choice.
225−
226−This section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is believed to
227−be a consequence of the rest of this License.
228−
229− 8. If the distribution and/or use of the Program is restricted in
230−certain countries either by patents or by copyrighted interfaces, the
231−original copyright holder who places the Program under this License
232−may add an explicit geographical distribution limitation excluding
233−those countries, so that distribution is permitted only in or among
234−countries not thus excluded. In such case, this License incorporates
235−the limitation as if written in the body of this License.
236−
237− 9. The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions
238−of the General Public License from time to time. Such new versions will
239−be similar in spirit to the present version, but may differ in detail to
240−address new problems or concerns.
241−
242−Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the Program
243−specifies a version number of this License which applies to it and "any
244−later version", you have the option of following the terms and conditions
245−either of that version or of any later version published by the Free
246−Software Foundation. If the Program does not specify a version number of
247−this License, you may choose any version ever published by the Free Software
248−Foundation.
249−
250− 10. If you wish to incorporate parts of the Program into other free
251−programs whose distribution conditions are different, write to the author
252−to ask for permission. For software which is copyrighted by the Free
253−Software Foundation, write to the Free Software Foundation; we sometimes
254−make exceptions for this. Our decision will be guided by the two goals
255−of preserving the free status of all derivatives of our free software and
256−of promoting the sharing and reuse of software generally.
257−
258− NO WARRANTY
259−
260− 11. BECAUSE THE PROGRAM IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE, THERE IS NO WARRANTY
261−FOR THE PROGRAM, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW. EXCEPT WHEN
262−OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER PARTIES
263−PROVIDE THE PROGRAM "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED
264−OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF
265−MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. THE ENTIRE RISK AS
266−TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE PROGRAM IS WITH YOU. SHOULD THE
267−PROGRAM PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE COST OF ALL NECESSARY SERVICING,
268−REPAIR OR CORRECTION.
269−
270− 12. IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN WRITING
271−WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MAY MODIFY AND/OR
272−REDISTRIBUTE THE PROGRAM AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES,
273−INCLUDING ANY GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING
274−OUT OF THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED
275−TO LOSS OF DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY
276−YOU OR THIRD PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF THE PROGRAM TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER
277−PROGRAMS), EVEN IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE
278−POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
279−
280− END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS
281−
282− How to Apply These Terms to Your New Programs
283−
284− If you develop a new program, and you want it to be of the greatest
285−possible use to the public, the best way to achieve this is to make it
286−free software which everyone can redistribute and change under these terms.
287−
288− To do so, attach the following notices to the program. It is safest
289−to attach them to the start of each source file to most effectively
290−convey the exclusion of warranty; and each file should have at least
291−the "copyright" line and a pointer to where the full notice is found.
292−
293− <one line to give the program's name and a brief idea of what it does.>
294− Copyright (C) <year> <name of author>
295−
296− This program is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify
297− it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by
298− the Free Software Foundation; either version 2 of the License, or
299− (at your option) any later version.
300−
301− This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful,
302− but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of
303− MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. See the
304− GNU General Public License for more details.
305−
306− You should have received a copy of the GNU General Public License along
307− with this program; if not, write to the Free Software Foundation, Inc.,
308− 51 Franklin Street, Fifth Floor, Boston, MA 02110-1301 USA.
309−
310−Also add information on how to contact you by electronic and paper mail.
311−
312−If the program is interactive, make it output a short notice like this
313−when it starts in an interactive mode:
314−
315− Gnomovision version 69, Copyright (C) year name of author
316− Gnomovision comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY; for details type `show w'.
317− This is free software, and you are welcome to redistribute it
318− under certain conditions; type `show c' for details.
319−
320−The hypothetical commands `show w' and `show c' should show the appropriate
321−parts of the General Public License. Of course, the commands you use may
322−be called something other than `show w' and `show c'; they could even be
323−mouse-clicks or menu items--whatever suits your program.
324−
325−You should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer) or your
326−school, if any, to sign a "copyright disclaimer" for the program, if
327−necessary. Here is a sample; alter the names:
328−
329− Yoyodyne, Inc., hereby disclaims all copyright interest in the program
330− `Gnomovision' (which makes passes at compilers) written by James Hacker.
331−
332− <signature of Ty Coon>, 1 April 1989
333− Ty Coon, President of Vice
334−
335−This General Public License does not permit incorporating your program into
336−proprietary programs. If your program is a subroutine library, you may
337−consider it more useful to permit linking proprietary applications with the
338−library. If this is what you want to do, use the GNU Lesser General
339−Public License instead of this License.
