33 GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE
34 Version 3, 29 June 2007
35
36 Copyright (C) 2007 Free Software Foundation, Inc. <http://fsf.org/>
37 Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies
38 of this license document, but changing it is not allowed.
39
40 Preamble
41
42 The GNU General Public License is a free, copyleft license for
43 software and other kinds of works.
44
45 The licenses for most software and other practical works are designed
46 to take away your freedom to share and change the works. By contrast,
47 the GNU General Public License is intended to guarantee your freedom to
48 share and change all versions of a program--to make sure it remains free
49 software for all its users. We, the Free Software Foundation, use the
50 GNU General Public License for most of our software; it applies also to
51 any other work released this way by its authors. You can apply it to
52 your programs, too.
53
54 When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not
55 price. Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that you
56 have the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge for
57 them if you wish), that you receive source code or can get it if you
58 want it, that you can change the software or use pieces of it in new
59 free programs, and that you know you can do these things.
60
61 To protect your rights, we need to prevent others from denying you
62 these rights or asking you to surrender the rights. Therefore, you have
63 certain responsibilities if you distribute copies of the software, or if
64 you modify it: responsibilities to respect the freedom of others.
65
66 For example, if you distribute copies of such a program, whether
67 gratis or for a fee, you must pass on to the recipients the same
68 freedoms that you received. You must make sure that they, too, receive
69 or can get the source code. And you must show them these terms so they
70 know their rights.
71
72 Developers that use the GNU GPL protect your rights with two steps:
73 (1) assert copyright on the software, and (2) offer you this License
74 giving you legal permission to copy, distribute and/or modify it.
75
76 For the developers' and authors' protection, the GPL clearly explains
77 that there is no warranty for this free software. For both users' and
78 authors' sake, the GPL requires that modified versions be marked as
79 changed, so that their problems will not be attributed erroneously to
80 authors of previous versions.
81
82 Some devices are designed to deny users access to install or run
83 modified versions of the software inside them, although the manufacturer
84 can do so. This is fundamentally incompatible with the aim of
85 protecting users' freedom to change the software. The systematic
86 pattern of such abuse occurs in the area of products for individuals to
87 use, which is precisely where it is most unacceptable. Therefore, we
88 have designed this version of the GPL to prohibit the practice for those
89 products. If such problems arise substantially in other domains, we
90 stand ready to extend this provision to those domains in future versions
91 of the GPL, as needed to protect the freedom of users.
92
93 Finally, every program is threatened constantly by software patents.
94 States should not allow patents to restrict development and use of
95 software on general-purpose computers, but in those that do, we wish to
96 avoid the special danger that patents applied to a free program could
97 make it effectively proprietary. To prevent this, the GPL assures that
98 patents cannot be used to render the program non-free.
99
100 The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and
101 modification follow.
102
103 TERMS AND CONDITIONS
104
105 0. Definitions.
106
107 "This License" refers to version 3 of the GNU General Public License.
108
109 "Copyright" also means copyright-like laws that apply to other kinds of
110 works, such as semiconductor masks.
111
112 "The Program" refers to any copyrightable work licensed under this
113 License. Each licensee is addressed as "you". "Licensees" and
114 "recipients" may be individuals or organizations.
115
116 To "modify" a work means to copy from or adapt all or part of the work
117 in a fashion requiring copyright permission, other than the making of an
118 exact copy. The resulting work is called a "modified version" of the
119 earlier work or a work "based on" the earlier work.
120
121 A "covered work" means either the unmodified Program or a work based
122 on the Program.
123
124 To "propagate" a work means to do anything with it that, without
125 permission, would make you directly or secondarily liable for
126 infringement under applicable copyright law, except executing it on a
127 computer or modifying a private copy. Propagation includes copying,
128 distribution (with or without modification), making available to the
129 public, and in some countries other activities as well.
130
131 To "convey" a work means any kind of propagation that enables other
132 parties to make or receive copies. Mere interaction with a user through
133 a computer network, with no transfer of a copy, is not conveying.
134
135 An interactive user interface displays "Appropriate Legal Notices"
136 to the extent that it includes a convenient and prominently visible
137 feature that (1) displays an appropriate copyright notice, and (2)
138 tells the user that there is no warranty for the work (except to the
139 extent that warranties are provided), that licensees may convey the
140 work under this License, and how to view a copy of this License. If
141 the interface presents a list of user commands or options, such as a
142 menu, a prominent item in the list meets this criterion.
143
144 1. Source Code.
145
146 The "source code" for a work means the preferred form of the work
147 for making modifications to it. "Object code" means any non-source
148 form of a work.
149
150 A "Standard Interface" means an interface that either is an official
151 standard defined by a recognized standards body, or, in the case of
152 interfaces specified for a particular programming language, one that
153 is widely used among developers working in that language.
154
155 The "System Libraries" of an executable work include anything, other
156 than the work as a whole, that (a) is included in the normal form of
157 packaging a Major Component, but which is not part of that Major
158 Component, and (b) serves only to enable use of the work with that
159 Major Component, or to implement a Standard Interface for which an
160 implementation is available to the public in source code form. A
161 "Major Component", in this context, means a major essential component
162 (kernel, window system, and so on) of the specific operating system
163 (if any) on which the executable work runs, or a compiler used to
164 produce the work, or an object code interpreter used to run it.
165
166 The "Corresponding Source" for a work in object code form means all
167 the source code needed to generate, install, and (for an executable
168 work) run the object code and to modify the work, including scripts to
169 control those activities. However, it does not include the work's
170 System Libraries, or general-purpose tools or generally available free
171 programs which are used unmodified in performing those activities but
172 which are not part of the work. For example, Corresponding Source
173 includes interface definition files associated with source files for
174 the work, and the source code for shared libraries and dynamically
175 linked subprograms that the work is specifically designed to require,
176 such as by intimate data communication or control flow between those
177 subprograms and other parts of the work.
178
179 The Corresponding Source need not include anything that users
180 can regenerate automatically from other parts of the Corresponding
181 Source.
182
183 The Corresponding Source for a work in source code form is that
184 same work.
185
186 2. Basic Permissions.
187
188 All rights granted under this License are granted for the term of
189 copyright on the Program, and are irrevocable provided the stated
190 conditions are met. This License explicitly affirms your unlimited
191 permission to run the unmodified Program. The output from running a
192 covered work is covered by this License only if the output, given its
193 content, constitutes a covered work. This License acknowledges your
194 rights of fair use or other equivalent, as provided by copyright law.
195
196 You may make, run and propagate covered works that you do not
197 convey, without conditions so long as your license otherwise remains
198 in force. You may convey covered works to others for the sole purpose
199 of having them make modifications exclusively for you, or provide you
200 with facilities for running those works, provided that you comply with
201 the terms of this License in conveying all material for which you do
202 not control copyright. Those thus making or running the covered works
203 for you must do so exclusively on your behalf, under your direction
204 and control, on terms that prohibit them from making any copies of
205 your copyrighted material outside their relationship with you.
206
207 Conveying under any other circumstances is permitted solely under
208 the conditions stated below. Sublicensing is not allowed; section 10
209 makes it unnecessary.
210
211 3. Protecting Users' Legal Rights From Anti-Circumvention Law.
212
213 No covered work shall be deemed part of an effective technological
214 measure under any applicable law fulfilling obligations under article
215 11 of the WIPO copyright treaty adopted on 20 December 1996, or
216 similar laws prohibiting or restricting circumvention of such
217 measures.
218
219 When you convey a covered work, you waive any legal power to forbid
220 circumvention of technological measures to the extent such circumvention
221 is effected by exercising rights under this License with respect to
222 the covered work, and you disclaim any intention to limit operation or
223 modification of the work as a means of enforcing, against the work's
224 users, your or third parties' legal rights to forbid circumvention of
225 technological measures.
226
227 4. Conveying Verbatim Copies.
228
229 You may convey verbatim copies of the Program's source code as you
230 receive it, in any medium, provided that you conspicuously and
231 appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate copyright notice;
232 keep intact all notices stating that this License and any
233 non-permissive terms added in accord with section 7 apply to the code;
234 keep intact all notices of the absence of any warranty; and give all
235 recipients a copy of this License along with the Program.
236
237 You may charge any price or no price for each copy that you convey,
238 and you may offer support or warranty protection for a fee.
239
240 5. Conveying Modified Source Versions.
241
242 You may convey a work based on the Program, or the modifications to
243 produce it from the Program, in the form of source code under the
244 terms of section 4, provided that you also meet all of these conditions:
245
246 a) The work must carry prominent notices stating that you modified
247 it, and giving a relevant date.
248
249 b) The work must carry prominent notices stating that it is
250 released under this License and any conditions added under section
251 7. This requirement modifies the requirement in section 4 to
252 "keep intact all notices".
253
254 c) You must license the entire work, as a whole, under this
255 License to anyone who comes into possession of a copy. This
256 License will therefore apply, along with any applicable section 7
257 additional terms, to the whole of the work, and all its parts,
258 regardless of how they are packaged. This License gives no
259 permission to license the work in any other way, but it does not
260 invalidate such permission if you have separately received it.
261
262 d) If the work has interactive user interfaces, each must display
263 Appropriate Legal Notices; however, if the Program has interactive
264 interfaces that do not display Appropriate Legal Notices, your
265 work need not make them do so.
266
267 A compilation of a covered work with other separate and independent
268 works, which are not by their nature extensions of the covered work,
269 and which are not combined with it such as to form a larger program,
270 in or on a volume of a storage or distribution medium, is called an
271 "aggregate" if the compilation and its resulting copyright are not
272 used to limit the access or legal rights of the compilation's users
273 beyond what the individual works permit. Inclusion of a covered work
274 in an aggregate does not cause this License to apply to the other
275 parts of the aggregate.
276
277 6. Conveying Non-Source Forms.
278
279 You may convey a covered work in object code form under the terms
280 of sections 4 and 5, provided that you also convey the
281 machine-readable Corresponding Source under the terms of this License,
282 in one of these ways:
283
284 a) Convey the object code in, or embodied in, a physical product
285 (including a physical distribution medium), accompanied by the
286 Corresponding Source fixed on a durable physical medium
287 customarily used for software interchange.
288
289 b) Convey the object code in, or embodied in, a physical product
290 (including a physical distribution medium), accompanied by a
291 written offer, valid for at least three years and valid for as
292 long as you offer spare parts or customer support for that product
293 model, to give anyone who possesses the object code either (1) a
294 copy of the Corresponding Source for all the software in the
295 product that is covered by this License, on a durable physical
296 medium customarily used for software interchange, for a price no
297 more than your reasonable cost of physically performing this
298 conveying of source, or (2) access to copy the
299 Corresponding Source from a network server at no charge.
300
301 c) Convey individual copies of the object code with a copy of the
302 written offer to provide the Corresponding Source. This
303 alternative is allowed only occasionally and noncommercially, and
304 only if you received the object code with such an offer, in accord
305 with subsection 6b.
306
307 d) Convey the object code by offering access from a designated
308 place (gratis or for a charge), and offer equivalent access to the
309 Corresponding Source in the same way through the same place at no
310 further charge. You need not require recipients to copy the
311 Corresponding Source along with the object code. If the place to
312 copy the object code is a network server, the Corresponding Source
313 may be on a different server (operated by you or a third party)
314 that supports equivalent copying facilities, provided you maintain
315 clear directions next to the object code saying where to find the
316 Corresponding Source. Regardless of what server hosts the
317 Corresponding Source, you remain obligated to ensure that it is
318 available for as long as needed to satisfy these requirements.
319
320 e) Convey the object code using peer-to-peer transmission, provided
321 you inform other peers where the object code and Corresponding
322 Source of the work are being offered to the general public at no
323 charge under subsection 6d.
324
325 A separable portion of the object code, whose source code is excluded
326 from the Corresponding Source as a System Library, need not be
327 included in conveying the object code work.
328
329 A "User Product" is either (1) a "consumer product", which means any
330 tangible personal property which is normally used for personal, family,
331 or household purposes, or (2) anything designed or sold for incorporation
332 into a dwelling. In determining whether a product is a consumer product,
333 doubtful cases shall be resolved in favor of coverage. For a particular
334 product received by a particular user, "normally used" refers to a
335 typical or common use of that class of product, regardless of the status
336 of the particular user or of the way in which the particular user
337 actually uses, or expects or is expected to use, the product. A product
338 is a consumer product regardless of whether the product has substantial
339 commercial, industrial or non-consumer uses, unless such uses represent
340 the only significant mode of use of the product.
341
342 "Installation Information" for a User Product means any methods,
343 procedures, authorization keys, or other information required to install
344 and execute modified versions of a covered work in that User Product from
345 a modified version of its Corresponding Source. The information must
346 suffice to ensure that the continued functioning of the modified object
347 code is in no case prevented or interfered with solely because
348 modification has been made.
349
350 If you convey an object code work under this section in, or with, or
351 specifically for use in, a User Product, and the conveying occurs as
352 part of a transaction in which the right of possession and use of the
353 User Product is transferred to the recipient in perpetuity or for a
354 fixed term (regardless of how the transaction is characterized), the
355 Corresponding Source conveyed under this section must be accompanied
356 by the Installation Information. But this requirement does not apply
357 if neither you nor any third party retains the ability to install
358 modified object code on the User Product (for example, the work has
359 been installed in ROM).
360
361 The requirement to provide Installation Information does not include a
362 requirement to continue to provide support service, warranty, or updates
363 for a work that has been modified or installed by the recipient, or for
364 the User Product in which it has been modified or installed. Access to a
365 network may be denied when the modification itself materially and
366 adversely affects the operation of the network or violates the rules and
367 protocols for communication across the network.
368
369 Corresponding Source conveyed, and Installation Information provided,
370 in accord with this section must be in a format that is publicly
371 documented (and with an implementation available to the public in
372 source code form), and must require no special password or key for
373 unpacking, reading or copying.
374
375 7. Additional Terms.
376
377 "Additional permissions" are terms that supplement the terms of this
378 License by making exceptions from one or more of its conditions.
379 Additional permissions that are applicable to the entire Program shall
380 be treated as though they were included in this License, to the extent
381 that they are valid under applicable law. If additional permissions
382 apply only to part of the Program, that part may be used separately
383 under those permissions, but the entire Program remains governed by
384 this License without regard to the additional permissions.
385
386 When you convey a copy of a covered work, you may at your option
387 remove any additional permissions from that copy, or from any part of
388 it. (Additional permissions may be written to require their own
389 removal in certain cases when you modify the work.) You may place
390 additional permissions on material, added by you to a covered work,
391 for which you have or can give appropriate copyright permission.
392
393 Notwithstanding any other provision of this License, for material you
394 add to a covered work, you may (if authorized by the copyright holders of
395 that material) supplement the terms of this License with terms:
396
397 a) Disclaiming warranty or limiting liability differently from the
398 terms of sections 15 and 16 of this License; or
399
400 b) Requiring preservation of specified reasonable legal notices or
401 author attributions in that material or in the Appropriate Legal
402 Notices displayed by works containing it; or
403
404 c) Prohibiting misrepresentation of the origin of that material, or
405 requiring that modified versions of such material be marked in
406 reasonable ways as different from the original version; or
407
408 d) Limiting the use for publicity purposes of names of licensors or
409 authors of the material; or
410
411 e) Declining to grant rights under trademark law for use of some
412 trade names, trademarks, or service marks; or
413
414 f) Requiring indemnification of licensors and authors of that
415 material by anyone who conveys the material (or modified versions of
416 it) with contractual assumptions of liability to the recipient, for
417 any liability that these contractual assumptions directly impose on
418 those licensors and authors.
419
420 All other non-permissive additional terms are considered "further
421 restrictions" within the meaning of section 10. If the Program as you
422 received it, or any part of it, contains a notice stating that it is
423 governed by this License along with a term that is a further
424 restriction, you may remove that term. If a license document contains
425 a further restriction but permits relicensing or conveying under this
426 License, you may add to a covered work material governed by the terms
427 of that license document, provided that the further restriction does
428 not survive such relicensing or conveying.
429
430 If you add terms to a covered work in accord with this section, you
431 must place, in the relevant source files, a statement of the
432 additional terms that apply to those files, or a notice indicating
433 where to find the applicable terms.
434
435 Additional terms, permissive or non-permissive, may be stated in the
436 form of a separately written license, or stated as exceptions;
437 the above requirements apply either way.
438
439 8. Termination.
440
441 You may not propagate or modify a covered work except as expressly
442 provided under this License. Any attempt otherwise to propagate or
443 modify it is void, and will automatically terminate your rights under
444 this License (including any patent licenses granted under the third
445 paragraph of section 11).
446
447 However, if you cease all violation of this License, then your
448 license from a particular copyright holder is reinstated (a)
449 provisionally, unless and until the copyright holder explicitly and
450 finally terminates your license, and (b) permanently, if the copyright
451 holder fails to notify you of the violation by some reasonable means
452 prior to 60 days after the cessation.
453
454 Moreover, your license from a particular copyright holder is
455 reinstated permanently if the copyright holder notifies you of the
456 violation by some reasonable means, this is the first time you have
457 received notice of violation of this License (for any work) from that
458 copyright holder, and you cure the violation prior to 30 days after
459 your receipt of the notice.
460
461 Termination of your rights under this section does not terminate the
462 licenses of parties who have received copies or rights from you under
463 this License. If your rights have been terminated and not permanently
464 reinstated, you do not qualify to receive new licenses for the same
465 material under section 10.
466
467 9. Acceptance Not Required for Having Copies.
468
469 You are not required to accept this License in order to receive or
470 run a copy of the Program. Ancillary propagation of a covered work
471 occurring solely as a consequence of using peer-to-peer transmission
472 to receive a copy likewise does not require acceptance. However,
473 nothing other than this License grants you permission to propagate or
474 modify any covered work. These actions infringe copyright if you do
475 not accept this License. Therefore, by modifying or propagating a
476 covered work, you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so.
477
478 10. Automatic Licensing of Downstream Recipients.
479
480 Each time you convey a covered work, the recipient automatically
481 receives a license from the original licensors, to run, modify and
482 propagate that work, subject to this License. You are not responsible
483 for enforcing compliance by third parties with this License.
484
485 An "entity transaction" is a transaction transferring control of an
486 organization, or substantially all assets of one, or subdividing an
487 organization, or merging organizations. If propagation of a covered
488 work results from an entity transaction, each party to that
489 transaction who receives a copy of the work also receives whatever
490 licenses to the work the party's predecessor in interest had or could
491 give under the previous paragraph, plus a right to possession of the
492 Corresponding Source of the work from the predecessor in interest, if
493 the predecessor has it or can get it with reasonable efforts.
494
495 You may not impose any further restrictions on the exercise of the
496 rights granted or affirmed under this License. For example, you may
497 not impose a license fee, royalty, or other charge for exercise of
498 rights granted under this License, and you may not initiate litigation
499 (including a cross-claim or counterclaim in a lawsuit) alleging that
500 any patent claim is infringed by making, using, selling, offering for
501 sale, or importing the Program or any portion of it.
502
503 11. Patents.
504
505 A "contributor" is a copyright holder who authorizes use under this
506 License of the Program or a work on which the Program is based. The
507 work thus licensed is called the contributor's "contributor version".
508
509 A contributor's "essential patent claims" are all patent claims
510 owned or controlled by the contributor, whether already acquired or
511 hereafter acquired, that would be infringed by some manner, permitted
512 by this License, of making, using, or selling its contributor version,
513 but do not include claims that would be infringed only as a
514 consequence of further modification of the contributor version. For
515 purposes of this definition, "control" includes the right to grant
516 patent sublicenses in a manner consistent with the requirements of
517 this License.
518
519 Each contributor grants you a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free
520 patent license under the contributor's essential patent claims, to
521 make, use, sell, offer for sale, import and otherwise run, modify and
522 propagate the contents of its contributor version.
523
524 In the following three paragraphs, a "patent license" is any express
525 agreement or commitment, however denominated, not to enforce a patent
526 (such as an express permission to practice a patent or covenant not to
527 sue for patent infringement). To "grant" such a patent license to a
528 party means to make such an agreement or commitment not to enforce a
529 patent against the party.
530
531 If you convey a covered work, knowingly relying on a patent license,
532 and the Corresponding Source of the work is not available for anyone
533 to copy, free of charge and under the terms of this License, through a
534 publicly available network server or other readily accessible means,
535 then you must either (1) cause the Corresponding Source to be so
536 available, or (2) arrange to deprive yourself of the benefit of the
537 patent license for this particular work, or (3) arrange, in a manner
538 consistent with the requirements of this License, to extend the patent
539 license to downstream recipients. "Knowingly relying" means you have
540 actual knowledge that, but for the patent license, your conveying the
541 covered work in a country, or your recipient's use of the covered work
542 in a country, would infringe one or more identifiable patents in that
543 country that you have reason to believe are valid.
544
545 If, pursuant to or in connection with a single transaction or
546 arrangement, you convey, or propagate by procuring conveyance of, a
547 covered work, and grant a patent license to some of the parties
548 receiving the covered work authorizing them to use, propagate, modify
549 or convey a specific copy of the covered work, then the patent license
550 you grant is automatically extended to all recipients of the covered
551 work and works based on it.
552
553 A patent license is "discriminatory" if it does not include within
554 the scope of its coverage, prohibits the exercise of, or is
555 conditioned on the non-exercise of one or more of the rights that are
556 specifically granted under this License. You may not convey a covered
557 work if you are a party to an arrangement with a third party that is
558 in the business of distributing software, under which you make payment
559 to the third party based on the extent of your activity of conveying
560 the work, and under which the third party grants, to any of the
561 parties who would receive the covered work from you, a discriminatory
562 patent license (a) in connection with copies of the covered work
563 conveyed by you (or copies made from those copies), or (b) primarily
564 for and in connection with specific products or compilations that
565 contain the covered work, unless you entered into that arrangement,
566 or that patent license was granted, prior to 28 March 2007.
567
568 Nothing in this License shall be construed as excluding or limiting
569 any implied license or other defenses to infringement that may
570 otherwise be available to you under applicable patent law.
571
572 12. No Surrender of Others' Freedom.
573
574 If conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or
575 otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not
576 excuse you from the conditions of this License. If you cannot convey a
577 covered work so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this
578 License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you may
579 not convey it at all. For example, if you agree to terms that obligate you
580 to collect a royalty for further conveying from those to whom you convey
581 the Program, the only way you could satisfy both those terms and this
582 License would be to refrain entirely from conveying the Program.
583
584 13. Use with the GNU Affero General Public License.
585
586 Notwithstanding any other provision of this License, you have
587 permission to link or combine any covered work with a work licensed
588 under version 3 of the GNU Affero General Public License into a single
589 combined work, and to convey the resulting work. The terms of this
590 License will continue to apply to the part which is the covered work,
591 but the special requirements of the GNU Affero General Public License,
592 section 13, concerning interaction through a network will apply to the
593 combination as such.
594
595 14. Revised Versions of this License.
596
597 The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions of
598 the GNU General Public License from time to time. Such new versions will
599 be similar in spirit to the present version, but may differ in detail to
600 address new problems or concerns.
601
602 Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the
603 Program specifies that a certain numbered version of the GNU General
604 Public License "or any later version" applies to it, you have the
605 option of following the terms and conditions either of that numbered
606 version or of any later version published by the Free Software
607 Foundation. If the Program does not specify a version number of the
608 GNU General Public License, you may choose any version ever published
609 by the Free Software Foundation.
610
611 If the Program specifies that a proxy can decide which future
612 versions of the GNU General Public License can be used, that proxy's
613 public statement of acceptance of a version permanently authorizes you
614 to choose that version for the Program.
615
616 Later license versions may give you additional or different
617 permissions. However, no additional obligations are imposed on any
618 author or copyright holder as a result of your choosing to follow a
619 later version.
620
621 15. Disclaimer of Warranty.
622
623 THERE IS NO WARRANTY FOR THE PROGRAM, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY
624 APPLICABLE LAW. EXCEPT WHEN OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT
625 HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER PARTIES PROVIDE THE PROGRAM "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY
626 OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO,
627 THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR
628 PURPOSE. THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE PROGRAM
629 IS WITH YOU. SHOULD THE PROGRAM PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE COST OF
630 ALL NECESSARY SERVICING, REPAIR OR CORRECTION.
631
632 16. Limitation of Liability.
633
634 IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN WRITING
635 WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MODIFIES AND/OR CONVEYS
636 THE PROGRAM AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES, INCLUDING ANY
637 GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THE
638 USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF
639 DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY YOU OR THIRD
640 PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF THE PROGRAM TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER PROGRAMS),
641 EVEN IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF
642 SUCH DAMAGES.
643
644 17. Interpretation of Sections 15 and 16.
645
646 If the disclaimer of warranty and limitation of liability provided
647 above cannot be given local legal effect according to their terms,
648 reviewing courts shall apply local law that most closely approximates
649 an absolute waiver of all civil liability in connection with the
650 Program, unless a warranty or assumption of liability accompanies a
651 copy of the Program in return for a fee.
652
653 END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS
654
655 How to Apply These Terms to Your New Programs
656
657 If you develop a new program, and you want it to be of the greatest
658 possible use to the public, the best way to achieve this is to make it
659 free software which everyone can redistribute and change under these terms.
660
661 To do so, attach the following notices to the program. It is safest
662 to attach them to the start of each source file to most effectively
663 state the exclusion of warranty; and each file should have at least
664 the "copyright" line and a pointer to where the full notice is found.
665
666 <one line to give the program's name and a brief idea of what it does.>
667 Copyright (C) <year> <name of author>
668
669 This program is free software: you can redistribute it and/or modify
670 it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by
671 the Free Software Foundation, either version 3 of the License, or
672 (at your option) any later version.
673
674 This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful,
675 but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of
676 MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. See the
677 GNU General Public License for more details.
678
679 You should have received a copy of the GNU General Public License
680 along with this program. If not, see <http://www.gnu.org/licenses/>.
681
682 Also add information on how to contact you by electronic and paper mail.
683
684 If the program does terminal interaction, make it output a short
685 notice like this when it starts in an interactive mode:
686
687 <program> Copyright (C) <year> <name of author>
688 This program comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY; for details type `show w'.
689 This is free software, and you are welcome to redistribute it
690 under certain conditions; type `show c' for details.
691
692 The hypothetical commands `show w' and `show c' should show the appropriate
693 parts of the General Public License. Of course, your program's commands
694 might be different; for a GUI interface, you would use an "about box".
695
696 You should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer) or school,
697 if any, to sign a "copyright disclaimer" for the program, if necessary.
698 For more information on this, and how to apply and follow the GNU GPL, see
699 <http://www.gnu.org/licenses/>.
700
701 The GNU General Public License does not permit incorporating your program
702 into proprietary programs. If your program is a subroutine library, you
703 may consider it more useful to permit linking proprietary applications with
704 the library. If this is what you want to do, use the GNU Lesser General
705 Public License instead of this License. But first, please read
706 <http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/why-not-lgpl.html>.
