766 GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE
767 Version 3, 29 June 2007
768
769 Copyright (C) 2007 Free Software Foundation, Inc. <http://fsf.org/>
770 Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies
771 of this license document, but changing it is not allowed.
772
773 Preamble
774
775 The GNU General Public License is a free, copyleft license for
776 software and other kinds of works.
777
778 The licenses for most software and other practical works are designed
779 to take away your freedom to share and change the works. By contrast,
780 the GNU General Public License is intended to guarantee your freedom to
781 share and change all versions of a program--to make sure it remains free
782 software for all its users. We, the Free Software Foundation, use the
783 GNU General Public License for most of our software; it applies also to
784 any other work released this way by its authors. You can apply it to
785 your programs, too.
786
787 When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not
788 price. Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that you
789 have the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge for
790 them if you wish), that you receive source code or can get it if you
791 want it, that you can change the software or use pieces of it in new
792 free programs, and that you know you can do these things.
793
794 To protect your rights, we need to prevent others from denying you
795 these rights or asking you to surrender the rights. Therefore, you have
796 certain responsibilities if you distribute copies of the software, or if
797 you modify it: responsibilities to respect the freedom of others.
798
799 For example, if you distribute copies of such a program, whether
800 gratis or for a fee, you must pass on to the recipients the same
801 freedoms that you received. You must make sure that they, too, receive
802 or can get the source code. And you must show them these terms so they
803 know their rights.
804
805 Developers that use the GNU GPL protect your rights with two steps:
806 (1) assert copyright on the software, and (2) offer you this License
807 giving you legal permission to copy, distribute and/or modify it.
808
809 For the developers' and authors' protection, the GPL clearly explains
810 that there is no warranty for this free software. For both users' and
811 authors' sake, the GPL requires that modified versions be marked as
812 changed, so that their problems will not be attributed erroneously to
813 authors of previous versions.
814
815 Some devices are designed to deny users access to install or run
816 modified versions of the software inside them, although the manufacturer
817 can do so. This is fundamentally incompatible with the aim of
818 protecting users' freedom to change the software. The systematic
819 pattern of such abuse occurs in the area of products for individuals to
820 use, which is precisely where it is most unacceptable. Therefore, we
821 have designed this version of the GPL to prohibit the practice for those
822 products. If such problems arise substantially in other domains, we
823 stand ready to extend this provision to those domains in future versions
824 of the GPL, as needed to protect the freedom of users.
825
826 Finally, every program is threatened constantly by software patents.
827 States should not allow patents to restrict development and use of
828 software on general-purpose computers, but in those that do, we wish to
829 avoid the special danger that patents applied to a free program could
830 make it effectively proprietary. To prevent this, the GPL assures that
831 patents cannot be used to render the program non-free.
832
833 The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and
834 modification follow.
835
836 TERMS AND CONDITIONS
837
838 0. Definitions.
839
840 "This License" refers to version 3 of the GNU General Public License.
841
842 "Copyright" also means copyright-like laws that apply to other kinds of
843 works, such as semiconductor masks.
844
845 "The Program" refers to any copyrightable work licensed under this
846 License. Each licensee is addressed as "you". "Licensees" and
847 "recipients" may be individuals or organizations.
848
849 To "modify" a work means to copy from or adapt all or part of the work
850 in a fashion requiring copyright permission, other than the making of an
851 exact copy. The resulting work is called a "modified version" of the
852 earlier work or a work "based on" the earlier work.
853
854 A "covered work" means either the unmodified Program or a work based
855 on the Program.
856
857 To "propagate" a work means to do anything with it that, without
858 permission, would make you directly or secondarily liable for
859 infringement under applicable copyright law, except executing it on a
860 computer or modifying a private copy. Propagation includes copying,
861 distribution (with or without modification), making available to the
862 public, and in some countries other activities as well.
863
864 To "convey" a work means any kind of propagation that enables other
865 parties to make or receive copies. Mere interaction with a user through
866 a computer network, with no transfer of a copy, is not conveying.
867
868 An interactive user interface displays "Appropriate Legal Notices"
869 to the extent that it includes a convenient and prominently visible
870 feature that (1) displays an appropriate copyright notice, and (2)
871 tells the user that there is no warranty for the work (except to the
872 extent that warranties are provided), that licensees may convey the
873 work under this License, and how to view a copy of this License. If
874 the interface presents a list of user commands or options, such as a
875 menu, a prominent item in the list meets this criterion.
876
877 1. Source Code.
878
879 The "source code" for a work means the preferred form of the work
880 for making modifications to it. "Object code" means any non-source
881 form of a work.
882
883 A "Standard Interface" means an interface that either is an official
884 standard defined by a recognized standards body, or, in the case of
885 interfaces specified for a particular programming language, one that
886 is widely used among developers working in that language.
887
888 The "System Libraries" of an executable work include anything, other
889 than the work as a whole, that (a) is included in the normal form of
890 packaging a Major Component, but which is not part of that Major
891 Component, and (b) serves only to enable use of the work with that
892 Major Component, or to implement a Standard Interface for which an
893 implementation is available to the public in source code form. A
894 "Major Component", in this context, means a major essential component
895 (kernel, window system, and so on) of the specific operating system
896 (if any) on which the executable work runs, or a compiler used to
897 produce the work, or an object code interpreter used to run it.
898
899 The "Corresponding Source" for a work in object code form means all
900 the source code needed to generate, install, and (for an executable
901 work) run the object code and to modify the work, including scripts to
902 control those activities. However, it does not include the work's
903 System Libraries, or general-purpose tools or generally available free
904 programs which are used unmodified in performing those activities but
905 which are not part of the work. For example, Corresponding Source
906 includes interface definition files associated with source files for
907 the work, and the source code for shared libraries and dynamically
908 linked subprograms that the work is specifically designed to require,
909 such as by intimate data communication or control flow between those
910 subprograms and other parts of the work.
911
912 The Corresponding Source need not include anything that users
913 can regenerate automatically from other parts of the Corresponding
914 Source.
915
916 The Corresponding Source for a work in source code form is that
917 same work.
918
919 2. Basic Permissions.
920
921 All rights granted under this License are granted for the term of
922 copyright on the Program, and are irrevocable provided the stated
923 conditions are met. This License explicitly affirms your unlimited
924 permission to run the unmodified Program. The output from running a
925 covered work is covered by this License only if the output, given its
926 content, constitutes a covered work. This License acknowledges your
927 rights of fair use or other equivalent, as provided by copyright law.
928
929 You may make, run and propagate covered works that you do not
930 convey, without conditions so long as your license otherwise remains
931 in force. You may convey covered works to others for the sole purpose
932 of having them make modifications exclusively for you, or provide you
933 with facilities for running those works, provided that you comply with
934 the terms of this License in conveying all material for which you do
935 not control copyright. Those thus making or running the covered works
936 for you must do so exclusively on your behalf, under your direction
937 and control, on terms that prohibit them from making any copies of
938 your copyrighted material outside their relationship with you.
939
940 Conveying under any other circumstances is permitted solely under
941 the conditions stated below. Sublicensing is not allowed; section 10
942 makes it unnecessary.
943
944 3. Protecting Users' Legal Rights From Anti-Circumvention Law.
945
946 No covered work shall be deemed part of an effective technological
947 measure under any applicable law fulfilling obligations under article
948 11 of the WIPO copyright treaty adopted on 20 December 1996, or
949 similar laws prohibiting or restricting circumvention of such
950 measures.
951
952 When you convey a covered work, you waive any legal power to forbid
953 circumvention of technological measures to the extent such circumvention
954 is effected by exercising rights under this License with respect to
955 the covered work, and you disclaim any intention to limit operation or
956 modification of the work as a means of enforcing, against the work's
957 users, your or third parties' legal rights to forbid circumvention of
958 technological measures.
959
960 4. Conveying Verbatim Copies.
961
962 You may convey verbatim copies of the Program's source code as you
963 receive it, in any medium, provided that you conspicuously and
964 appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate copyright notice;
965 keep intact all notices stating that this License and any
966 non-permissive terms added in accord with section 7 apply to the code;
967 keep intact all notices of the absence of any warranty; and give all
968 recipients a copy of this License along with the Program.
969
970 You may charge any price or no price for each copy that you convey,
971 and you may offer support or warranty protection for a fee.
972
973 5. Conveying Modified Source Versions.
974
975 You may convey a work based on the Program, or the modifications to
976 produce it from the Program, in the form of source code under the
977 terms of section 4, provided that you also meet all of these conditions:
978
979 a) The work must carry prominent notices stating that you modified
980 it, and giving a relevant date.
981
982 b) The work must carry prominent notices stating that it is
983 released under this License and any conditions added under section
984 7. This requirement modifies the requirement in section 4 to
985 "keep intact all notices".
986
987 c) You must license the entire work, as a whole, under this
988 License to anyone who comes into possession of a copy. This
989 License will therefore apply, along with any applicable section 7
990 additional terms, to the whole of the work, and all its parts,
991 regardless of how they are packaged. This License gives no
992 permission to license the work in any other way, but it does not
993 invalidate such permission if you have separately received it.
994
995 d) If the work has interactive user interfaces, each must display
996 Appropriate Legal Notices; however, if the Program has interactive
997 interfaces that do not display Appropriate Legal Notices, your
998 work need not make them do so.
999
1000 A compilation of a covered work with other separate and independent
1001 works, which are not by their nature extensions of the covered work,
1002 and which are not combined with it such as to form a larger program,
1003 in or on a volume of a storage or distribution medium, is called an
1004 "aggregate" if the compilation and its resulting copyright are not
1005 used to limit the access or legal rights of the compilation's users
1006 beyond what the individual works permit. Inclusion of a covered work
1007 in an aggregate does not cause this License to apply to the other
1008 parts of the aggregate.
1009
1010 6. Conveying Non-Source Forms.
1011
1012 You may convey a covered work in object code form under the terms
1013 of sections 4 and 5, provided that you also convey the
1014 machine-readable Corresponding Source under the terms of this License,
1015 in one of these ways:
1016
1017 a) Convey the object code in, or embodied in, a physical product
1018 (including a physical distribution medium), accompanied by the
1019 Corresponding Source fixed on a durable physical medium
1020 customarily used for software interchange.
1021
1022 b) Convey the object code in, or embodied in, a physical product
1023 (including a physical distribution medium), accompanied by a
1024 written offer, valid for at least three years and valid for as
1025 long as you offer spare parts or customer support for that product
1026 model, to give anyone who possesses the object code either (1) a
1027 copy of the Corresponding Source for all the software in the
1028 product that is covered by this License, on a durable physical
1029 medium customarily used for software interchange, for a price no
1030 more than your reasonable cost of physically performing this
1031 conveying of source, or (2) access to copy the
1032 Corresponding Source from a network server at no charge.
1033
1034 c) Convey individual copies of the object code with a copy of the
1035 written offer to provide the Corresponding Source. This
1036 alternative is allowed only occasionally and noncommercially, and
1037 only if you received the object code with such an offer, in accord
1038 with subsection 6b.
1039
1040 d) Convey the object code by offering access from a designated
1041 place (gratis or for a charge), and offer equivalent access to the
1042 Corresponding Source in the same way through the same place at no
1043 further charge. You need not require recipients to copy the
1044 Corresponding Source along with the object code. If the place to
1045 copy the object code is a network server, the Corresponding Source
1046 may be on a different server (operated by you or a third party)
1047 that supports equivalent copying facilities, provided you maintain
1048 clear directions next to the object code saying where to find the
1049 Corresponding Source. Regardless of what server hosts the
1050 Corresponding Source, you remain obligated to ensure that it is
1051 available for as long as needed to satisfy these requirements.
1052
1053 e) Convey the object code using peer-to-peer transmission, provided
1054 you inform other peers where the object code and Corresponding
1055 Source of the work are being offered to the general public at no
1056 charge under subsection 6d.
1057
1058 A separable portion of the object code, whose source code is excluded
1059 from the Corresponding Source as a System Library, need not be
1060 included in conveying the object code work.
1061
1062 A "User Product" is either (1) a "consumer product", which means any
1063 tangible personal property which is normally used for personal, family,
1064 or household purposes, or (2) anything designed or sold for incorporation
1065 into a dwelling. In determining whether a product is a consumer product,
1066 doubtful cases shall be resolved in favor of coverage. For a particular
1067 product received by a particular user, "normally used" refers to a
1068 typical or common use of that class of product, regardless of the status
1069 of the particular user or of the way in which the particular user
1070 actually uses, or expects or is expected to use, the product. A product
1071 is a consumer product regardless of whether the product has substantial
1072 commercial, industrial or non-consumer uses, unless such uses represent
1073 the only significant mode of use of the product.
1074
1075 "Installation Information" for a User Product means any methods,
1076 procedures, authorization keys, or other information required to install
1077 and execute modified versions of a covered work in that User Product from
1078 a modified version of its Corresponding Source. The information must
1079 suffice to ensure that the continued functioning of the modified object
1080 code is in no case prevented or interfered with solely because
1081 modification has been made.
1082
1083 If you convey an object code work under this section in, or with, or
1084 specifically for use in, a User Product, and the conveying occurs as
1085 part of a transaction in which the right of possession and use of the
1086 User Product is transferred to the recipient in perpetuity or for a
1087 fixed term (regardless of how the transaction is characterized), the
1088 Corresponding Source conveyed under this section must be accompanied
1089 by the Installation Information. But this requirement does not apply
1090 if neither you nor any third party retains the ability to install
1091 modified object code on the User Product (for example, the work has
1092 been installed in ROM).
1093
1094 The requirement to provide Installation Information does not include a
1095 requirement to continue to provide support service, warranty, or updates
1096 for a work that has been modified or installed by the recipient, or for
1097 the User Product in which it has been modified or installed. Access to a
1098 network may be denied when the modification itself materially and
1099 adversely affects the operation of the network or violates the rules and
1100 protocols for communication across the network.
1101
1102 Corresponding Source conveyed, and Installation Information provided,
1103 in accord with this section must be in a format that is publicly
1104 documented (and with an implementation available to the public in
1105 source code form), and must require no special password or key for
1106 unpacking, reading or copying.
1107
1108 7. Additional Terms.
1109
1110 "Additional permissions" are terms that supplement the terms of this
1111 License by making exceptions from one or more of its conditions.
1112 Additional permissions that are applicable to the entire Program shall
1113 be treated as though they were included in this License, to the extent
1114 that they are valid under applicable law. If additional permissions
1115 apply only to part of the Program, that part may be used separately
1116 under those permissions, but the entire Program remains governed by
1117 this License without regard to the additional permissions.
1118
1119 When you convey a copy of a covered work, you may at your option
1120 remove any additional permissions from that copy, or from any part of
1121 it. (Additional permissions may be written to require their own
1122 removal in certain cases when you modify the work.) You may place
1123 additional permissions on material, added by you to a covered work,
1124 for which you have or can give appropriate copyright permission.
1125
1126 Notwithstanding any other provision of this License, for material you
1127 add to a covered work, you may (if authorized by the copyright holders of
1128 that material) supplement the terms of this License with terms:
1129
1130 a) Disclaiming warranty or limiting liability differently from the
1131 terms of sections 15 and 16 of this License; or
1132
1133 b) Requiring preservation of specified reasonable legal notices or
1134 author attributions in that material or in the Appropriate Legal
1135 Notices displayed by works containing it; or
1136
1137 c) Prohibiting misrepresentation of the origin of that material, or
1138 requiring that modified versions of such material be marked in
1139 reasonable ways as different from the original version; or
1140
1141 d) Limiting the use for publicity purposes of names of licensors or
1142 authors of the material; or
1143
1144 e) Declining to grant rights under trademark law for use of some
1145 trade names, trademarks, or service marks; or
1146
1147 f) Requiring indemnification of licensors and authors of that
1148 material by anyone who conveys the material (or modified versions of
1149 it) with contractual assumptions of liability to the recipient, for
1150 any liability that these contractual assumptions directly impose on
1151 those licensors and authors.
1152
1153 All other non-permissive additional terms are considered "further
1154 restrictions" within the meaning of section 10. If the Program as you
1155 received it, or any part of it, contains a notice stating that it is
1156 governed by this License along with a term that is a further
1157 restriction, you may remove that term. If a license document contains
1158 a further restriction but permits relicensing or conveying under this
1159 License, you may add to a covered work material governed by the terms
1160 of that license document, provided that the further restriction does
1161 not survive such relicensing or conveying.
1162
1163 If you add terms to a covered work in accord with this section, you
1164 must place, in the relevant source files, a statement of the
1165 additional terms that apply to those files, or a notice indicating
1166 where to find the applicable terms.
1167
1168 Additional terms, permissive or non-permissive, may be stated in the
1169 form of a separately written license, or stated as exceptions;
1170 the above requirements apply either way.
1171
1172 8. Termination.
1173
1174 You may not propagate or modify a covered work except as expressly
1175 provided under this License. Any attempt otherwise to propagate or
1176 modify it is void, and will automatically terminate your rights under
1177 this License (including any patent licenses granted under the third
1178 paragraph of section 11).
1179
1180 However, if you cease all violation of this License, then your
1181 license from a particular copyright holder is reinstated (a)
1182 provisionally, unless and until the copyright holder explicitly and
1183 finally terminates your license, and (b) permanently, if the copyright
1184 holder fails to notify you of the violation by some reasonable means
1185 prior to 60 days after the cessation.
1186
1187 Moreover, your license from a particular copyright holder is
1188 reinstated permanently if the copyright holder notifies you of the
1189 violation by some reasonable means, this is the first time you have
1190 received notice of violation of this License (for any work) from that
1191 copyright holder, and you cure the violation prior to 30 days after
1192 your receipt of the notice.
1193
1194 Termination of your rights under this section does not terminate the
1195 licenses of parties who have received copies or rights from you under
1196 this License. If your rights have been terminated and not permanently
1197 reinstated, you do not qualify to receive new licenses for the same
1198 material under section 10.
1199
1200 9. Acceptance Not Required for Having Copies.
1201
1202 You are not required to accept this License in order to receive or
1203 run a copy of the Program. Ancillary propagation of a covered work
1204 occurring solely as a consequence of using peer-to-peer transmission
1205 to receive a copy likewise does not require acceptance. However,
1206 nothing other than this License grants you permission to propagate or
1207 modify any covered work. These actions infringe copyright if you do
1208 not accept this License. Therefore, by modifying or propagating a
1209 covered work, you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so.
1210
1211 10. Automatic Licensing of Downstream Recipients.
1212
1213 Each time you convey a covered work, the recipient automatically
1214 receives a license from the original licensors, to run, modify and
1215 propagate that work, subject to this License. You are not responsible
1216 for enforcing compliance by third parties with this License.
1217
1218 An "entity transaction" is a transaction transferring control of an
1219 organization, or substantially all assets of one, or subdividing an
1220 organization, or merging organizations. If propagation of a covered
1221 work results from an entity transaction, each party to that
1222 transaction who receives a copy of the work also receives whatever
1223 licenses to the work the party's predecessor in interest had or could
1224 give under the previous paragraph, plus a right to possession of the
1225 Corresponding Source of the work from the predecessor in interest, if
1226 the predecessor has it or can get it with reasonable efforts.
1227
1228 You may not impose any further restrictions on the exercise of the
1229 rights granted or affirmed under this License. For example, you may
1230 not impose a license fee, royalty, or other charge for exercise of
1231 rights granted under this License, and you may not initiate litigation
1232 (including a cross-claim or counterclaim in a lawsuit) alleging that
1233 any patent claim is infringed by making, using, selling, offering for
1234 sale, or importing the Program or any portion of it.
1235
1236 11. Patents.
1237
1238 A "contributor" is a copyright holder who authorizes use under this
1239 License of the Program or a work on which the Program is based. The
1240 work thus licensed is called the contributor's "contributor version".
1241
1242 A contributor's "essential patent claims" are all patent claims
1243 owned or controlled by the contributor, whether already acquired or
1244 hereafter acquired, that would be infringed by some manner, permitted
1245 by this License, of making, using, or selling its contributor version,
1246 but do not include claims that would be infringed only as a
1247 consequence of further modification of the contributor version. For
1248 purposes of this definition, "control" includes the right to grant
1249 patent sublicenses in a manner consistent with the requirements of
1250 this License.
1251
1252 Each contributor grants you a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free
1253 patent license under the contributor's essential patent claims, to
1254 make, use, sell, offer for sale, import and otherwise run, modify and
1255 propagate the contents of its contributor version.
1256
1257 In the following three paragraphs, a "patent license" is any express
1258 agreement or commitment, however denominated, not to enforce a patent
1259 (such as an express permission to practice a patent or covenant not to
1260 sue for patent infringement). To "grant" such a patent license to a
1261 party means to make such an agreement or commitment not to enforce a
1262 patent against the party.
1263
1264 If you convey a covered work, knowingly relying on a patent license,
1265 and the Corresponding Source of the work is not available for anyone
1266 to copy, free of charge and under the terms of this License, through a
1267 publicly available network server or other readily accessible means,
1268 then you must either (1) cause the Corresponding Source to be so
1269 available, or (2) arrange to deprive yourself of the benefit of the
1270 patent license for this particular work, or (3) arrange, in a manner
1271 consistent with the requirements of this License, to extend the patent
1272 license to downstream recipients. "Knowingly relying" means you have
1273 actual knowledge that, but for the patent license, your conveying the
1274 covered work in a country, or your recipient's use of the covered work
1275 in a country, would infringe one or more identifiable patents in that
1276 country that you have reason to believe are valid.
1277
1278 If, pursuant to or in connection with a single transaction or
1279 arrangement, you convey, or propagate by procuring conveyance of, a
1280 covered work, and grant a patent license to some of the parties
1281 receiving the covered work authorizing them to use, propagate, modify
1282 or convey a specific copy of the covered work, then the patent license
1283 you grant is automatically extended to all recipients of the covered
1284 work and works based on it.
1285
1286 A patent license is "discriminatory" if it does not include within
1287 the scope of its coverage, prohibits the exercise of, or is
1288 conditioned on the non-exercise of one or more of the rights that are
1289 specifically granted under this License. You may not convey a covered
1290 work if you are a party to an arrangement with a third party that is
1291 in the business of distributing software, under which you make payment
1292 to the third party based on the extent of your activity of conveying
1293 the work, and under which the third party grants, to any of the
1294 parties who would receive the covered work from you, a discriminatory
1295 patent license (a) in connection with copies of the covered work
1296 conveyed by you (or copies made from those copies), or (b) primarily
1297 for and in connection with specific products or compilations that
1298 contain the covered work, unless you entered into that arrangement,
1299 or that patent license was granted, prior to 28 March 2007.
1300
1301 Nothing in this License shall be construed as excluding or limiting
1302 any implied license or other defenses to infringement that may
1303 otherwise be available to you under applicable patent law.
1304
1305 12. No Surrender of Others' Freedom.
1306
1307 If conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or
1308 otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not
1309 excuse you from the conditions of this License. If you cannot convey a
1310 covered work so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this
1311 License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you may
1312 not convey it at all. For example, if you agree to terms that obligate you
1313 to collect a royalty for further conveying from those to whom you convey
1314 the Program, the only way you could satisfy both those terms and this
1315 License would be to refrain entirely from conveying the Program.
1316
1317 13. Use with the GNU Affero General Public License.
1318
1319 Notwithstanding any other provision of this License, you have
1320 permission to link or combine any covered work with a work licensed
1321 under version 3 of the GNU Affero General Public License into a single
1322 combined work, and to convey the resulting work. The terms of this
1323 License will continue to apply to the part which is the covered work,
1324 but the special requirements of the GNU Affero General Public License,
1325 section 13, concerning interaction through a network will apply to the
1326 combination as such.
1327
1328 14. Revised Versions of this License.
1329
1330 The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions of
1331 the GNU General Public License from time to time. Such new versions will
1332 be similar in spirit to the present version, but may differ in detail to
1333 address new problems or concerns.
1334
1335 Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the
1336 Program specifies that a certain numbered version of the GNU General
1337 Public License "or any later version" applies to it, you have the
1338 option of following the terms and conditions either of that numbered
1339 version or of any later version published by the Free Software
1340 Foundation. If the Program does not specify a version number of the
1341 GNU General Public License, you may choose any version ever published
1342 by the Free Software Foundation.
1343
1344 If the Program specifies that a proxy can decide which future
1345 versions of the GNU General Public License can be used, that proxy's
1346 public statement of acceptance of a version permanently authorizes you
1347 to choose that version for the Program.
1348
1349 Later license versions may give you additional or different
1350 permissions. However, no additional obligations are imposed on any
1351 author or copyright holder as a result of your choosing to follow a
1352 later version.
1353
1354 15. Disclaimer of Warranty.
1355
1356 THERE IS NO WARRANTY FOR THE PROGRAM, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY
1357 APPLICABLE LAW. EXCEPT WHEN OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT
1358 HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER PARTIES PROVIDE THE PROGRAM "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY
1359 OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO,
1360 THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR
1361 PURPOSE. THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE PROGRAM
1362 IS WITH YOU. SHOULD THE PROGRAM PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE COST OF
1363 ALL NECESSARY SERVICING, REPAIR OR CORRECTION.
1364
1365 16. Limitation of Liability.
1366
1367 IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN WRITING
1368 WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MODIFIES AND/OR CONVEYS
1369 THE PROGRAM AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES, INCLUDING ANY
1370 GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THE
1371 USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF
1372 DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY YOU OR THIRD
1373 PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF THE PROGRAM TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER PROGRAMS),
1374 EVEN IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF
1375 SUCH DAMAGES.
1376
1377 17. Interpretation of Sections 15 and 16.
1378
1379 If the disclaimer of warranty and limitation of liability provided
1380 above cannot be given local legal effect according to their terms,
1381 reviewing courts shall apply local law that most closely approximates
1382 an absolute waiver of all civil liability in connection with the
1383 Program, unless a warranty or assumption of liability accompanies a
1384 copy of the Program in return for a fee.
1385
1386 END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS
1387
1388 How to Apply These Terms to Your New Programs
1389
1390 If you develop a new program, and you want it to be of the greatest
1391 possible use to the public, the best way to achieve this is to make it
1392 free software which everyone can redistribute and change under these terms.
1393
1394 To do so, attach the following notices to the program. It is safest
1395 to attach them to the start of each source file to most effectively
1396 state the exclusion of warranty; and each file should have at least
1397 the "copyright" line and a pointer to where the full notice is found.
1398
1399 <one line to give the program's name and a brief idea of what it does.>
1400 Copyright (C) <year> <name of author>
1401
1402 This program is free software: you can redistribute it and/or modify
1403 it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by
1404 the Free Software Foundation, either version 3 of the License, or
1405 (at your option) any later version.
1406
1407 This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful,
1408 but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of
1409 MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. See the
1410 GNU General Public License for more details.
1411
1412 You should have received a copy of the GNU General Public License
1413 along with this program. If not, see <http://www.gnu.org/licenses/>.
1414
1415 Also add information on how to contact you by electronic and paper mail.
1416
1417 If the program does terminal interaction, make it output a short
1418 notice like this when it starts in an interactive mode:
1419
1420 <program> Copyright (C) <year> <name of author>
1421 This program comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY; for details type `show w'.
1422 This is free software, and you are welcome to redistribute it
1423 under certain conditions; type `show c' for details.
1424
1425 The hypothetical commands `show w' and `show c' should show the appropriate
1426 parts of the General Public License. Of course, your program's commands
1427 might be different; for a GUI interface, you would use an "about box".
1428
1429 You should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer) or school,
1430 if any, to sign a "copyright disclaimer" for the program, if necessary.
1431 For more information on this, and how to apply and follow the GNU GPL, see
1432 <http://www.gnu.org/licenses/>.
1433
1434 The GNU General Public License does not permit incorporating your program
1435 into proprietary programs. If your program is a subroutine library, you
1436 may consider it more useful to permit linking proprietary applications with
1437 the library. If this is what you want to do, use the GNU Lesser General
1438 Public License instead of this License. But first, please read
1439 <http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/why-not-lgpl.html>.
