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