By contrast, the GNU General Public License +is intended to guarantee your freedom to share and change free +software--to make sure the software is free for all its users. This +General Public License applies to most of the Free Software +Foundation's software and to any other program whose authors commit +to using it. (Some other Free Software Foundation software is covered +by the GNU Lesser General Public License instead.) You can apply it +to your programs, too. + +When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not +price. Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that you +have the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge +for this service if you wish), that you receive source code or can +get it if you want it, that you can change the software or use pieces +of it in new free programs; and that you know you can do these +things. + +To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that forbid +anyone to deny you these rights or to ask you to surrender the +rights. These restrictions translate to certain responsibilities for +you if you distribute copies of the software, or if you modify it. + +For example, if you distribute copies of such a program, whether +gratis or for a fee, you must give the recipients all the rights that +you have. You must make sure that they, too, receive or can get the +source code. And you must show them these terms so they know their +rights. + +We protect your rights with two steps: (1) copyright the software, +and (2) offer you this license which gives you legal permission to +copy, distribute and/or modify the software. + +Also, for each author's protection and ours, we want to make certain +that everyone understands that there is no warranty for this free +software. If the software is modified by someone else and passed on, +we want its recipients to know that what they have is not the +original, so that any problems introduced by others will not reflect +on the original authors' reputations. + +Finally, any free program is threatened constantly by software +patents. We wish to avoid the danger that redistributors of a free +program will individually obtain patent licenses, in effect making +the program proprietary. To prevent this, we have made it clear that +any patent must be licensed for everyone's free use or not licensed +at all. + +The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and +modification follow. + + +TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION +=============================================================== + +0. This License applies to any program or other work which contains a + notice placed by the copyright holder saying it may be distributed + under the terms of this General Public License. The "Program", + below, refers to any such program or work, and a "work based on + the Program" means either the Program or any derivative work under + copyright law: that is to say, a work containing the Program or a + portion of it, either verbatim or with modifications and/or + translated into another language. (Hereinafter, translation is + included without limitation in the term "modification".) Each + licensee is addressed as "you". + + Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are + not covered by this License; they are outside its scope. The act + of running the Program is not restricted, and the output from the + Program is covered only if its contents constitute a work based on + the Program (independent of having been made by running the + Program). Whether that is true depends on what the Program does. + +1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Program's + source code as you receive it, in any medium, provided that you + conspicuously and appropriately publish on each copy an + appropriate copyright notice and disclaimer of warranty; keep + intact all the notices that refer to this License and to the + absence of any warranty; and give any other recipients of the + Program a copy of this License along with the Program. + + You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy, + and you may at your option offer warranty protection in exchange + for a fee. + +2. You may modify your copy or copies of the Program or any portion + of it, thus forming a work based on the Program, and copy and + distribute such modifications or work under the terms of Section 1 + above, provided that you also meet all of these conditions: + + a) You must cause the modified files to carry prominent notices + stating that you changed the files and the date of any change. + + b) You must cause any work that you distribute or publish, that in + whole or in part contains or is derived from the Program or any + part thereof, to be licensed as a whole at no charge to all + third parties under the terms of this License. + + c) If the modified program normally reads commands interactively + when run, you must cause it, when started running for such + interactive use in the most ordinary way, to print or display + an announcement including an appropriate copyright notice and a + notice that there is no warranty (or else, saying that you + provide a warranty) and that users may redistribute the program + under these conditions, and telling the user how to view a copy + of this License. (Exception: if the Program itself is + interactive but does not normally print such an announcement, + your work based on the Program is not required to print an + announcement.) + + These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole. If + identifiable sections of that work are not derived from the + Program, and can be reasonably considered independent and separate + works in themselves, then this License, and its terms, do not + apply to those sections when you distribute them as separate + works. But when you distribute the same sections as part of a + whole which is a work based on the Program, the distribution of + the whole must be on the terms of this License, whose permissions + for other licensees extend to the entire whole, and thus to each + and every part regardless of who wrote it. + + Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or + contest your rights to work written entirely by you; rather, the + intent is to exercise the right to control the distribution of + derivative or collective works based on the Program. + + In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the + Program with the Program (or with a work based on the Program) on + a volume of a storage or distribution medium does not bring the + other work under the scope of this License. + +3. You may copy and distribute the Program (or a work based on it, + under Section 2) in object code or executable form under the terms + of Sections 1 and 2 above provided that you also do one of the + following: + + a) Accompany it with the complete corresponding machine-readable + source code, which must be distributed under the terms of + Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium customarily used for + software interchange; or, + + b) Accompany it with a written offer, valid for at least three + years, to give any third party, for a charge no more than your + cost of physically performing source distribution, a complete + machine-readable copy of the corresponding source code, to be + distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a + medium customarily used for software interchange; or, + + c) Accompany it with the information you received as to the offer + to distribute corresponding source code. (This alternative is + allowed only for noncommercial distribution and only if you + received the program in object code or executable form with + such an offer, in accord with Subsection b above.) + + The source code for a work means the preferred form of the work + for making modifications to it. For an executable work, complete + source code means all the source code for all modules it contains, + plus any associated interface definition files, plus the scripts + used to control compilation and installation of the + executable. However, as a special exception, the source code + distributed need not include anything that is normally distributed + (in either source or binary form) with the major components + (compiler, kernel, and so on) of the operating system on which the + executable runs, unless that component itself accompanies the + executable. + + If distribution of executable or object code is made by offering + access to copy from a designated place, then offering equivalent + access to copy the source code from the same place counts as + distribution of the source code, even though third parties are not + compelled to copy the source along with the object code. + +4. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the Program + except as expressly provided under this License. Any attempt + otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense or distribute the Program is + void, and will automatically terminate your rights under this + License. However, parties who have received copies, or rights, + from you under this License will not have their licenses + terminated so long as such parties remain in full compliance. + +5. You are not required to accept this License, since you have not + signed it. However, nothing else grants you permission to modify + or distribute the Program or its derivative works. These actions + are prohibited by law if you do not accept this + License. Therefore, by modifying or distributing the Program (or + any work based on the Program), you indicate your acceptance of + this License to do so, and all its terms and conditions for + copying, distributing or modifying the Program or works based on + it. + +6. Each time you redistribute the Program (or any work based on the + Program), the recipient automatically receives a license from the + original licensor to copy, distribute or modify the Program + subject to these terms and conditions. You may not impose any + further restrictions on the recipients' exercise of the rights + granted herein. You are not responsible for enforcing compliance + by third parties to this License. + +7. If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent + infringement or for any other reason (not limited to patent + issues), conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, + agreement or otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this + License, they do not excuse you from the conditions of this + License. If you cannot distribute so as to satisfy simultaneously + your obligations under this License and any other pertinent + obligations, then as a consequence you may not distribute the + Program at all. For example, if a patent license would not permit + royalty-free redistribution of the Program by all those who + receive copies directly or indirectly through you, then the only + way you could satisfy both it and this License would be to refrain + entirely from distribution of the Program. + + If any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable + under any particular circumstance, the balance of the section is + intended to apply and the section as a whole is intended to apply + in other circumstances. + + It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe + any patents or other property right claims or to contest validity + of any such claims; this section has the sole purpose of + protecting the integrity of the free software distribution system, + which is implemented by public license practices. Many people have + made generous contributions to the wide range of software + distributed through that system in reliance on consistent + application of that system; it is up to the author/donor to decide + if he or she is willing to distribute software through any other + system and a licensee cannot impose that choice. + + This section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is believed + to be a consequence of the rest of this License. + +8. If the distribution and/or use of the Program is restricted in + certain countries either by patents or by copyrighted interfaces, + the original copyright holder who places the Program under this + License may add an explicit geographical distribution limitation + excluding those countries, so that distribution is permitted only + in or among countries not thus excluded. In such case, this + License incorporates the limitation as if written in the body of + this License. + +9. The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new + versions of the General Public License from time to time. Such new + versions will be similar in spirit to the present version, but may + differ in detail to address new problems or concerns. + + Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the + Program specifies a version number of this License which applies + to it and "any later version", you have the option of following + the terms and conditions either of that version or of any later + version published by the Free Software Foundation. If the Program + does not specify a version number of this License, you may choose + any version ever published by the Free Software Foundation. + +10. If you wish to incorporate parts of the Program into other free + programs whose distribution conditions are different, write to + the author to ask for permission. For software which is + copyrighted by the Free Software Foundation, write to the Free + Software Foundation; we sometimes make exceptions for this. Our + decision will be guided by the two goals of preserving the free + status of all derivatives of our free software and of promoting + the sharing and reuse of software generally. + +**NO WARRANTY** + +11. BECAUSE THE PROGRAM IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE, THERE IS NO + WARRANTY FOR THE PROGRAM, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE + LAW. EXCEPT WHEN OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT + HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER PARTIES PROVIDE THE PROGRAM "AS IS" WITHOUT + WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT + NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND + FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE + QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE PROGRAM IS WITH YOU. SHOULD THE + PROGRAM PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE COST OF ALL NECESSARY + SERVICING, REPAIR OR CORRECTION. + +12. IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN + WRITING WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MAY + MODIFY AND/OR REDISTRIBUTE THE PROGRAM AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE + LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES, INCLUDING ANY GENERAL, SPECIAL, + INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THE USE OR + INABILITY TO USE THE PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS + OF DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY + YOU OR THIRD PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF THE PROGRAM TO OPERATE WITH + ANY OTHER PROGRAMS), EVEN IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN + ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. + + +END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS +=========================== + + +How to Apply These Terms to Your New Programs +============================================= + +If you develop a new program, and you want it to be of the greatest +possible use to the public, the best way to achieve this is to make +it free software which everyone can redistribute and change under +these terms. + +To do so, attach the following notices to the program. It is safest +to attach them to the start of each source file to most effectively +convey the exclusion of warranty; and each file should have at least +the "copyright" line and a pointer to where the full notice is found. + + one line to give the program's name and an idea of what it does. + Copyright (C) yyyy name of author + + This program is free software; you can redistribute it and/or + modify it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as + published by the Free Software Foundation; either version 2 of + the License, or (at your option) any later version. + + This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful, + but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of + MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. See the GNU + General Public License for more details. + + You should have received a copy of the GNU General Public License + along with this program; if not, write to the Free Software + Foundation, Inc., 51 Franklin Street, Fifth Floor, Boston, MA + 02110-1301, USA. + +Also add information on how to contact you by electronic and paper +mail. + +If the program is interactive, make it output a short notice like +this when it starts in an interactive mode: :: + + Gnomovision version 69, Copyright (C) year name of author + Gnomovision comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY; for details type + "show w". This is free software, and you are welcome to + redistribute it under certain conditions; "type show c" for + details. + +The hypothetical commands ``"show w"`` and ``"show c"`` should show +the appropriate parts of the General Public License. Of course, the +commands you use may be called something other than ``"show w"`` and +``"show c"``; they could even be mouse-clicks or menu items--whatever +suits your program. + +You should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer) or +your school, if any, to sign a "copyright disclaimer" for the +program, if necessary. Here is a sample; alter the names: :: + + Yoyodyne, Inc., hereby disclaims all copyright + interest in the program `Gnomovision` + (which makes passes at compilers) written + by James Hacker. + + signature of Ty Coon, 1 April 1989 + Ty Coon, President of Vice + +This General Public License does not permit incorporating your +program into proprietary programs. If your program is a subroutine +library, you may consider it more useful to permit linking +proprietary applications with the library. If this is what you want +to do, use the [GNU Lesser General Public +License](https://www.gnu.org/licenses/lgpl.html) instead of this +License.
