2 | GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE | ||
3 | Version 3, 29 June 2007 | ||
4 | |||
5 | Copyright (C) 2007 Free Software Foundation, Inc. <http://fsf.org/> | ||
6 | Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies | ||
7 | of this license document, but changing it is not allowed. | ||
8 | |||
9 | Preamble | ||
10 | |||
11 | The GNU General Public License is a free, copyleft license for | ||
12 | software and other kinds of works. | ||
13 | |||
14 | The licenses for most software and other practical works are designed | ||
15 | to take away your freedom to share and change the works. By contrast, | ||
16 | the GNU General Public License is intended to guarantee your freedom to | ||
17 | share and change all versions of a program--to make sure it remains free | ||
18 | software for all its users. We, the Free Software Foundation, use the | ||
19 | GNU General Public License for most of our software; it applies also to | ||
20 | any other work released this way by its authors. You can apply it to | ||
21 | your programs, too. | ||
22 | |||
23 | When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not | ||
24 | price. Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that you | ||
25 | have the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge for | ||
26 | them if you wish), that you receive source code or can get it if you | ||
27 | want it, that you can change the software or use pieces of it in new | ||
28 | free programs, and that you know you can do these things. | ||
29 | |||
30 | To protect your rights, we need to prevent others from denying you | ||
31 | these rights or asking you to surrender the rights. Therefore, you have | ||
32 | certain responsibilities if you distribute copies of the software, or if | ||
33 | you modify it: responsibilities to respect the freedom of others. | ||
34 | |||
35 | For example, if you distribute copies of such a program, whether | ||
36 | gratis or for a fee, you must pass on to the recipients the same | ||
37 | freedoms that you received. You must make sure that they, too, receive | ||
38 | or can get the source code. And you must show them these terms so they | ||
39 | know their rights. | ||
40 | |||
41 | Developers that use the GNU GPL protect your rights with two steps: | ||
42 | (1) assert copyright on the software, and (2) offer you this License | ||
43 | giving you legal permission to copy, distribute and/or modify it. | ||
44 | |||
45 | For the developers' and authors' protection, the GPL clearly explains | ||
46 | that there is no warranty for this free software. For both users' and | ||
47 | authors' sake, the GPL requires that modified versions be marked as | ||
48 | changed, so that their problems will not be attributed erroneously to | ||
49 | authors of previous versions. | ||
50 | |||
51 | Some devices are designed to deny users access to install or run | ||
52 | modified versions of the software inside them, although the manufacturer | ||
53 | can do so. This is fundamentally incompatible with the aim of | ||
54 | protecting users' freedom to change the software. The systematic | ||
55 | pattern of such abuse occurs in the area of products for individuals to | ||
56 | use, which is precisely where it is most unacceptable. Therefore, we | ||
57 | have designed this version of the GPL to prohibit the practice for those | ||
58 | products. If such problems arise substantially in other domains, we | ||
59 | stand ready to extend this provision to those domains in future versions | ||
60 | of the GPL, as needed to protect the freedom of users. | ||
61 | |||
62 | Finally, every program is threatened constantly by software patents. | ||
63 | States should not allow patents to restrict development and use of | ||
64 | software on general-purpose computers, but in those that do, we wish to | ||
65 | avoid the special danger that patents applied to a free program could | ||
66 | make it effectively proprietary. To prevent this, the GPL assures that | ||
67 | patents cannot be used to render the program non-free. | ||
68 | |||
69 | The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and | ||
70 | modification follow. | ||
71 | |||
72 | TERMS AND CONDITIONS | ||
73 | |||
74 | 0. Definitions. | ||
75 | |||
76 | "This License" refers to version 3 of the GNU General Public License. | ||
77 | |||
78 | "Copyright" also means copyright-like laws that apply to other kinds of | ||
79 | works, such as semiconductor masks. | ||
80 | |||
81 | "The Program" refers to any copyrightable work licensed under this | ||
82 | License. Each licensee is addressed as "you". "Licensees" and | ||
83 | "recipients" may be individuals or organizations. | ||
84 | |||
85 | To "modify" a work means to copy from or adapt all or part of the work | ||
86 | in a fashion requiring copyright permission, other than the making of an | ||
87 | exact copy. The resulting work is called a "modified version" of the | ||
88 | earlier work or a work "based on" the earlier work. | ||
89 | |||
90 | A "covered work" means either the unmodified Program or a work based | ||
91 | on the Program. | ||
92 | |||
93 | To "propagate" a work means to do anything with it that, without | ||
94 | permission, would make you directly or secondarily liable for | ||
95 | infringement under applicable copyright law, except executing it on a | ||
96 | computer or modifying a private copy. Propagation includes copying, | ||
97 | distribution (with or without modification), making available to the | ||
98 | public, and in some countries other activities as well. | ||
99 | |||
100 | To "convey" a work means any kind of propagation that enables other | ||
101 | parties to make or receive copies. Mere interaction with a user through | ||
102 | a computer network, with no transfer of a copy, is not conveying. | ||
103 | |||
104 | An interactive user interface displays "Appropriate Legal Notices" | ||
105 | to the extent that it includes a convenient and prominently visible | ||
106 | feature that (1) displays an appropriate copyright notice, and (2) | ||
107 | tells the user that there is no warranty for the work (except to the | ||
108 | extent that warranties are provided), that licensees may convey the | ||
109 | work under this License, and how to view a copy of this License. If | ||
110 | the interface presents a list of user commands or options, such as a | ||
111 | menu, a prominent item in the list meets this criterion. | ||
112 | |||
113 | 1. Source Code. | ||
114 | |||
115 | The "source code" for a work means the preferred form of the work | ||
116 | for making modifications to it. "Object code" means any non-source | ||
117 | form of a work. | ||
118 | |||
119 | A "Standard Interface" means an interface that either is an official | ||
120 | standard defined by a recognized standards body, or, in the case of | ||
121 | interfaces specified for a particular programming language, one that | ||
122 | is widely used among developers working in that language. | ||
123 | |||
124 | The "System Libraries" of an executable work include anything, other | ||
125 | than the work as a whole, that (a) is included in the normal form of | ||
126 | packaging a Major Component, but which is not part of that Major | ||
127 | Component, and (b) serves only to enable use of the work with that | ||
128 | Major Component, or to implement a Standard Interface for which an | ||
129 | implementation is available to the public in source code form. A | ||
130 | "Major Component", in this context, means a major essential component | ||
131 | (kernel, window system, and so on) of the specific operating system | ||
132 | (if any) on which the executable work runs, or a compiler used to | ||
133 | produce the work, or an object code interpreter used to run it. | ||
134 | |||
135 | The "Corresponding Source" for a work in object code form means all | ||
136 | the source code needed to generate, install, and (for an executable | ||
137 | work) run the object code and to modify the work, including scripts to | ||
138 | control those activities. However, it does not include the work's | ||
139 | System Libraries, or general-purpose tools or generally available free | ||
140 | programs which are used unmodified in performing those activities but | ||
141 | which are not part of the work. For example, Corresponding Source | ||
142 | includes interface definition files associated with source files for | ||
143 | the work, and the source code for shared libraries and dynamically | ||
144 | linked subprograms that the work is specifically designed to require, | ||
145 | such as by intimate data communication or control flow between those | ||
146 | subprograms and other parts of the work. | ||
147 | |||
148 | The Corresponding Source need not include anything that users | ||
149 | can regenerate automatically from other parts of the Corresponding | ||
150 | Source. | ||
151 | |||
152 | The Corresponding Source for a work in source code form is that | ||
153 | same work. | ||
154 | |||
155 | 2. Basic Permissions. | ||
156 | |||
157 | All rights granted under this License are granted for the term of | ||
158 | copyright on the Program, and are irrevocable provided the stated | ||
159 | conditions are met. This License explicitly affirms your unlimited | ||
160 | permission to run the unmodified Program. The output from running a | ||
161 | covered work is covered by this License only if the output, given its | ||
162 | content, constitutes a covered work. This License acknowledges your | ||
163 | rights of fair use or other equivalent, as provided by copyright law. | ||
164 | |||
165 | You may make, run and propagate covered works that you do not | ||
166 | convey, without conditions so long as your license otherwise remains | ||
167 | in force. You may convey covered works to others for the sole purpose | ||
168 | of having them make modifications exclusively for you, or provide you | ||
169 | with facilities for running those works, provided that you comply with | ||
170 | the terms of this License in conveying all material for which you do | ||
171 | not control copyright. Those thus making or running the covered works | ||
172 | for you must do so exclusively on your behalf, under your direction | ||
173 | and control, on terms that prohibit them from making any copies of | ||
174 | your copyrighted material outside their relationship with you. | ||
175 | |||
176 | Conveying under any other circumstances is permitted solely under | ||
177 | the conditions stated below. Sublicensing is not allowed; section 10 | ||
178 | makes it unnecessary. | ||
179 | |||
180 | 3. Protecting Users' Legal Rights From Anti-Circumvention Law. | ||
181 | |||
182 | No covered work shall be deemed part of an effective technological | ||
183 | measure under any applicable law fulfilling obligations under article | ||
184 | 11 of the WIPO copyright treaty adopted on 20 December 1996, or | ||
185 | similar laws prohibiting or restricting circumvention of such | ||
186 | measures. | ||
187 | |||
188 | When you convey a covered work, you waive any legal power to forbid | ||
189 | circumvention of technological measures to the extent such circumvention | ||
190 | is effected by exercising rights under this License with respect to | ||
191 | the covered work, and you disclaim any intention to limit operation or | ||
192 | modification of the work as a means of enforcing, against the work's | ||
193 | users, your or third parties' legal rights to forbid circumvention of | ||
194 | technological measures. | ||
195 | |||
196 | 4. Conveying Verbatim Copies. | ||
197 | |||
198 | You may convey verbatim copies of the Program's source code as you | ||
199 | receive it, in any medium, provided that you conspicuously and | ||
200 | appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate copyright notice; | ||
201 | keep intact all notices stating that this License and any | ||
202 | non-permissive terms added in accord with section 7 apply to the code; | ||
203 | keep intact all notices of the absence of any warranty; and give all | ||
204 | recipients a copy of this License along with the Program. | ||
205 | |||
206 | You may charge any price or no price for each copy that you convey, | ||
207 | and you may offer support or warranty protection for a fee. | ||
208 | |||
209 | 5. Conveying Modified Source Versions. | ||
210 | |||
211 | You may convey a work based on the Program, or the modifications to | ||
212 | produce it from the Program, in the form of source code under the | ||
213 | terms of section 4, provided that you also meet all of these conditions: | ||
214 | |||
215 | a) The work must carry prominent notices stating that you modified | ||
216 | it, and giving a relevant date. | ||
217 | |||
218 | b) The work must carry prominent notices stating that it is | ||
219 | released under this License and any conditions added under section | ||
220 | 7. This requirement modifies the requirement in section 4 to | ||
221 | "keep intact all notices". | ||
222 | |||
223 | c) You must license the entire work, as a whole, under this | ||
224 | License to anyone who comes into possession of a copy. This | ||
225 | License will therefore apply, along with any applicable section 7 | ||
226 | additional terms, to the whole of the work, and all its parts, | ||
227 | regardless of how they are packaged. This License gives no | ||
228 | permission to license the work in any other way, but it does not | ||
229 | invalidate such permission if you have separately received it. | ||
230 | |||
231 | d) If the work has interactive user interfaces, each must display | ||
232 | Appropriate Legal Notices; however, if the Program has interactive | ||
233 | interfaces that do not display Appropriate Legal Notices, your | ||
234 | work need not make them do so. | ||
235 | |||
236 | A compilation of a covered work with other separate and independent | ||
237 | works, which are not by their nature extensions of the covered work, | ||
238 | and which are not combined with it such as to form a larger program, | ||
239 | in or on a volume of a storage or distribution medium, is called an | ||
240 | "aggregate" if the compilation and its resulting copyright are not | ||
241 | used to limit the access or legal rights of the compilation's users | ||
242 | beyond what the individual works permit. Inclusion of a covered work | ||
243 | in an aggregate does not cause this License to apply to the other | ||
244 | parts of the aggregate. | ||
245 | |||
246 | 6. Conveying Non-Source Forms. | ||
247 | |||
248 | You may convey a covered work in object code form under the terms | ||
249 | of sections 4 and 5, provided that you also convey the | ||
250 | machine-readable Corresponding Source under the terms of this License, | ||
251 | in one of these ways: | ||
252 | |||
253 | a) Convey the object code in, or embodied in, a physical product | ||
254 | (including a physical distribution medium), accompanied by the | ||
255 | Corresponding Source fixed on a durable physical medium | ||
256 | customarily used for software interchange. | ||
257 | |||
258 | b) Convey the object code in, or embodied in, a physical product | ||
259 | (including a physical distribution medium), accompanied by a | ||
260 | written offer, valid for at least three years and valid for as | ||
261 | long as you offer spare parts or customer support for that product | ||
262 | model, to give anyone who possesses the object code either (1) a | ||
263 | copy of the Corresponding Source for all the software in the | ||
264 | product that is covered by this License, on a durable physical | ||
265 | medium customarily used for software interchange, for a price no | ||
266 | more than your reasonable cost of physically performing this | ||
267 | conveying of source, or (2) access to copy the | ||
268 | Corresponding Source from a network server at no charge. | ||
269 | |||
270 | c) Convey individual copies of the object code with a copy of the | ||
271 | written offer to provide the Corresponding Source. This | ||
272 | alternative is allowed only occasionally and noncommercially, and | ||
273 | only if you received the object code with such an offer, in accord | ||
274 | with subsection 6b. | ||
275 | |||
276 | d) Convey the object code by offering access from a designated | ||
277 | place (gratis or for a charge), and offer equivalent access to the | ||
278 | Corresponding Source in the same way through the same place at no | ||
279 | further charge. You need not require recipients to copy the | ||
280 | Corresponding Source along with the object code. If the place to | ||
281 | copy the object code is a network server, the Corresponding Source | ||
282 | may be on a different server (operated by you or a third party) | ||
283 | that supports equivalent copying facilities, provided you maintain | ||
284 | clear directions next to the object code saying where to find the | ||
285 | Corresponding Source. Regardless of what server hosts the | ||
286 | Corresponding Source, you remain obligated to ensure that it is | ||
287 | available for as long as needed to satisfy these requirements. | ||
288 | |||
289 | e) Convey the object code using peer-to-peer transmission, provided | ||
290 | you inform other peers where the object code and Corresponding | ||
291 | Source of the work are being offered to the general public at no | ||
292 | charge under subsection 6d. | ||
293 | |||
294 | A separable portion of the object code, whose source code is excluded | ||
295 | from the Corresponding Source as a System Library, need not be | ||
296 | included in conveying the object code work. | ||
297 | |||
298 | A "User Product" is either (1) a "consumer product", which means any | ||
299 | tangible personal property which is normally used for personal, family, | ||
300 | or household purposes, or (2) anything designed or sold for incorporation | ||
301 | into a dwelling. In determining whether a product is a consumer product, | ||
302 | doubtful cases shall be resolved in favor of coverage. For a particular | ||
303 | product received by a particular user, "normally used" refers to a | ||
304 | typical or common use of that class of product, regardless of the status | ||
305 | of the particular user or of the way in which the particular user | ||
306 | actually uses, or expects or is expected to use, the product. A product | ||
307 | is a consumer product regardless of whether the product has substantial | ||
308 | commercial, industrial or non-consumer uses, unless such uses represent | ||
309 | the only significant mode of use of the product. | ||
310 | |||
311 | "Installation Information" for a User Product means any methods, | ||
312 | procedures, authorization keys, or other information required to install | ||
313 | and execute modified versions of a covered work in that User Product from | ||
314 | a modified version of its Corresponding Source. The information must | ||
315 | suffice to ensure that the continued functioning of the modified object | ||
316 | code is in no case prevented or interfered with solely because | ||
317 | modification has been made. | ||
318 | |||
319 | If you convey an object code work under this section in, or with, or | ||
320 | specifically for use in, a User Product, and the conveying occurs as | ||
321 | part of a transaction in which the right of possession and use of the | ||
322 | User Product is transferred to the recipient in perpetuity or for a | ||
323 | fixed term (regardless of how the transaction is characterized), the | ||
324 | Corresponding Source conveyed under this section must be accompanied | ||
325 | by the Installation Information. But this requirement does not apply | ||
326 | if neither you nor any third party retains the ability to install | ||
327 | modified object code on the User Product (for example, the work has | ||
328 | been installed in ROM). | ||
329 | |||
330 | The requirement to provide Installation Information does not include a | ||
331 | requirement to continue to provide support service, warranty, or updates | ||
332 | for a work that has been modified or installed by the recipient, or for | ||
333 | the User Product in which it has been modified or installed. Access to a | ||
334 | network may be denied when the modification itself materially and | ||
335 | adversely affects the operation of the network or violates the rules and | ||
336 | protocols for communication across the network. | ||
337 | |||
338 | Corresponding Source conveyed, and Installation Information provided, | ||
339 | in accord with this section must be in a format that is publicly | ||
340 | documented (and with an implementation available to the public in | ||
341 | source code form), and must require no special password or key for | ||
342 | unpacking, reading or copying. | ||
343 | |||
344 | 7. Additional Terms. | ||
345 | |||
346 | "Additional permissions" are terms that supplement the terms of this | ||
347 | License by making exceptions from one or more of its conditions. | ||
348 | Additional permissions that are applicable to the entire Program shall | ||
349 | be treated as though they were included in this License, to the extent | ||
350 | that they are valid under applicable law. If additional permissions | ||
351 | apply only to part of the Program, that part may be used separately | ||
352 | under those permissions, but the entire Program remains governed by | ||
353 | this License without regard to the additional permissions. | ||
354 | |||
355 | When you convey a copy of a covered work, you may at your option | ||
356 | remove any additional permissions from that copy, or from any part of | ||
357 | it. (Additional permissions may be written to require their own | ||
358 | removal in certain cases when you modify the work.) You may place | ||
359 | additional permissions on material, added by you to a covered work, | ||
360 | for which you have or can give appropriate copyright permission. | ||
361 | |||
362 | Notwithstanding any other provision of this License, for material you | ||
363 | add to a covered work, you may (if authorized by the copyright holders of | ||
364 | that material) supplement the terms of this License with terms: | ||
365 | |||
366 | a) Disclaiming warranty or limiting liability differently from the | ||
367 | terms of sections 15 and 16 of this License; or | ||
368 | |||
369 | b) Requiring preservation of specified reasonable legal notices or | ||
370 | author attributions in that material or in the Appropriate Legal | ||
371 | Notices displayed by works containing it; or | ||
372 | |||
373 | c) Prohibiting misrepresentation of the origin of that material, or | ||
374 | requiring that modified versions of such material be marked in | ||
375 | reasonable ways as different from the original version; or | ||
376 | |||
377 | d) Limiting the use for publicity purposes of names of licensors or | ||
378 | authors of the material; or | ||
379 | |||
380 | e) Declining to grant rights under trademark law for use of some | ||
381 | trade names, trademarks, or service marks; or | ||
382 | |||
383 | f) Requiring indemnification of licensors and authors of that | ||
384 | material by anyone who conveys the material (or modified versions of | ||
385 | it) with contractual assumptions of liability to the recipient, for | ||
386 | any liability that these contractual assumptions directly impose on | ||
387 | those licensors and authors. | ||
388 | |||
389 | All other non-permissive additional terms are considered "further | ||
390 | restrictions" within the meaning of section 10. If the Program as you | ||
391 | received it, or any part of it, contains a notice stating that it is | ||
392 | governed by this License along with a term that is a further | ||
393 | restriction, you may remove that term. If a license document contains | ||
394 | a further restriction but permits relicensing or conveying under this | ||
395 | License, you may add to a covered work material governed by the terms | ||
396 | of that license document, provided that the further restriction does | ||
397 | not survive such relicensing or conveying. | ||
398 | |||
399 | If you add terms to a covered work in accord with this section, you | ||
400 | must place, in the relevant source files, a statement of the | ||
401 | additional terms that apply to those files, or a notice indicating | ||
402 | where to find the applicable terms. | ||
403 | |||
404 | Additional terms, permissive or non-permissive, may be stated in the | ||
405 | form of a separately written license, or stated as exceptions; | ||
406 | the above requirements apply either way. | ||
407 | |||
408 | 8. Termination. | ||
409 | |||
410 | You may not propagate or modify a covered work except as expressly | ||
411 | provided under this License. Any attempt otherwise to propagate or | ||
412 | modify it is void, and will automatically terminate your rights under | ||
413 | this License (including any patent licenses granted under the third | ||
414 | paragraph of section 11). | ||
415 | |||
416 | However, if you cease all violation of this License, then your | ||
417 | license from a particular copyright holder is reinstated (a) | ||
418 | provisionally, unless and until the copyright holder explicitly and | ||
419 | finally terminates your license, and (b) permanently, if the copyright | ||
420 | holder fails to notify you of the violation by some reasonable means | ||
421 | prior to 60 days after the cessation. | ||
422 | |||
423 | Moreover, your license from a particular copyright holder is | ||
424 | reinstated permanently if the copyright holder notifies you of the | ||
425 | violation by some reasonable means, this is the first time you have | ||
426 | received notice of violation of this License (for any work) from that | ||
427 | copyright holder, and you cure the violation prior to 30 days after | ||
428 | your receipt of the notice. | ||
429 | |||
430 | Termination of your rights under this section does not terminate the | ||
431 | licenses of parties who have received copies or rights from you under | ||
432 | this License. If your rights have been terminated and not permanently | ||
433 | reinstated, you do not qualify to receive new licenses for the same | ||
434 | material under section 10. | ||

436 | 9. Acceptance Not Required for Having Copies. | ||
437 | |||
438 | You are not required to accept this License in order to receive or | ||
439 | run a copy of the Program. Ancillary propagation of a covered work | ||
440 | occurring solely as a consequence of using peer-to-peer transmission | ||
441 | to receive a copy likewise does not require acceptance. However, | ||
442 | nothing other than this License grants you permission to propagate or | ||
443 | modify any covered work. These actions infringe copyright if you do | ||
444 | not accept this License. Therefore, by modifying or propagating a | ||
445 | covered work, you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so. | ||
446 | |||
447 | 10. Automatic Licensing of Downstream Recipients. | ||
448 | |||
449 | Each time you convey a covered work, the recipient automatically | ||
450 | receives a license from the original licensors, to run, modify and | ||
451 | propagate that work, subject to this License. You are not responsible | ||
452 | for enforcing compliance by third parties with this License. | ||
453 | |||
454 | An "entity transaction" is a transaction transferring control of an | ||
455 | organization, or substantially all assets of one, or subdividing an | ||
456 | organization, or merging organizations. If propagation of a covered | ||
457 | work results from an entity transaction, each party to that | ||
458 | transaction who receives a copy of the work also receives whatever | ||
459 | licenses to the work the party's predecessor in interest had or could | ||
460 | give under the previous paragraph, plus a right to possession of the | ||
461 | Corresponding Source of the work from the predecessor in interest, if | ||
462 | the predecessor has it or can get it with reasonable efforts. | ||
463 | |||
464 | You may not impose any further restrictions on the exercise of the | ||
465 | rights granted or affirmed under this License. For example, you may | ||
466 | not impose a license fee, royalty, or other charge for exercise of | ||
467 | rights granted under this License, and you may not initiate litigation | ||
468 | (including a cross-claim or counterclaim in a lawsuit) alleging that | ||
469 | any patent claim is infringed by making, using, selling, offering for | ||
470 | sale, or importing the Program or any portion of it. | ||
471 | |||
472 | 11. Patents. | ||
473 | |||
474 | A "contributor" is a copyright holder who authorizes use under this | ||
475 | License of the Program or a work on which the Program is based. The | ||
476 | work thus licensed is called the contributor's "contributor version". | ||
477 | |||
478 | A contributor's "essential patent claims" are all patent claims | ||
479 | owned or controlled by the contributor, whether already acquired or | ||
480 | hereafter acquired, that would be infringed by some manner, permitted | ||
481 | by this License, of making, using, or selling its contributor version, | ||
482 | but do not include claims that would be infringed only as a | ||
483 | consequence of further modification of the contributor version. For | ||
484 | purposes of this definition, "control" includes the right to grant | ||
485 | patent sublicenses in a manner consistent with the requirements of | ||
486 | this License. | ||
487 | |||
488 | Each contributor grants you a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free | ||
489 | patent license under the contributor's essential patent claims, to | ||
490 | make, use, sell, offer for sale, import and otherwise run, modify and | ||
491 | propagate the contents of its contributor version. | ||
492 | |||
493 | In the following three paragraphs, a "patent license" is any express | ||
494 | agreement or commitment, however denominated, not to enforce a patent | ||
495 | (such as an express permission to practice a patent or covenant not to | ||
496 | sue for patent infringement). To "grant" such a patent license to a | ||
497 | party means to make such an agreement or commitment not to enforce a | ||
498 | patent against the party. | ||
499 | |||
500 | If you convey a covered work, knowingly relying on a patent license, | ||
501 | and the Corresponding Source of the work is not available for anyone | ||
502 | to copy, free of charge and under the terms of this License, through a | ||
503 | publicly available network server or other readily accessible means, | ||
504 | then you must either (1) cause the Corresponding Source to be so | ||
505 | available, or (2) arrange to deprive yourself of the benefit of the | ||
506 | patent license for this particular work, or (3) arrange, in a manner | ||
507 | consistent with the requirements of this License, to extend the patent | ||
508 | license to downstream recipients. "Knowingly relying" means you have | ||
509 | actual knowledge that, but for the patent license, your conveying the | ||
510 | covered work in a country, or your recipient's use of the covered work | ||
511 | in a country, would infringe one or more identifiable patents in that | ||
512 | country that you have reason to believe are valid. | ||
513 | |||
514 | If, pursuant to or in connection with a single transaction or | ||
515 | arrangement, you convey, or propagate by procuring conveyance of, a | ||
516 | covered work, and grant a patent license to some of the parties | ||
517 | receiving the covered work authorizing them to use, propagate, modify | ||
518 | or convey a specific copy of the covered work, then the patent license | ||
519 | you grant is automatically extended to all recipients of the covered | ||
520 | work and works based on it. | ||
521 | |||
522 | A patent license is "discriminatory" if it does not include within | ||
523 | the scope of its coverage, prohibits the exercise of, or is | ||
524 | conditioned on the non-exercise of one or more of the rights that are | ||
525 | specifically granted under this License. You may not convey a covered | ||
526 | work if you are a party to an arrangement with a third party that is | ||
527 | in the business of distributing software, under which you make payment | ||
528 | to the third party based on the extent of your activity of conveying | ||
529 | the work, and under which the third party grants, to any of the | ||
530 | parties who would receive the covered work from you, a discriminatory | ||
531 | patent license (a) in connection with copies of the covered work | ||
532 | conveyed by you (or copies made from those copies), or (b) primarily | ||
533 | for and in connection with specific products or compilations that | ||
534 | contain the covered work, unless you entered into that arrangement, | ||
535 | or that patent license was granted, prior to 28 March 2007. | ||
536 | |||
537 | Nothing in this License shall be construed as excluding or limiting | ||
538 | any implied license or other defenses to infringement that may | ||
539 | otherwise be available to you under applicable patent law. | ||
540 | |||
541 | 12. No Surrender of Others' Freedom. | ||
542 | |||
543 | If conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or | ||
544 | otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not | ||
545 | excuse you from the conditions of this License. If you cannot convey a | ||
546 | covered work so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this | ||
547 | License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you may | ||
548 | not convey it at all. For example, if you agree to terms that obligate you | ||
549 | to collect a royalty for further conveying from those to whom you convey | ||
550 | the Program, the only way you could satisfy both those terms and this | ||
551 | License would be to refrain entirely from conveying the Program. | ||
552 | |||
553 | 13. Use with the GNU Affero General Public License. | ||
554 | |||
555 | Notwithstanding any other provision of this License, you have | ||
556 | permission to link or combine any covered work with a work licensed | ||
557 | under version 3 of the GNU Affero General Public License into a single | ||
558 | combined work, and to convey the resulting work. The terms of this | ||
559 | License will continue to apply to the part which is the covered work, | ||
560 | but the special requirements of the GNU Affero General Public License, | ||
561 | section 13, concerning interaction through a network will apply to the | ||
562 | combination as such. | ||
563 | |||
564 | 14. Revised Versions of this License. | ||
565 | |||
566 | The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions of | ||
567 | the GNU General Public License from time to time. Such new versions will | ||
568 | be similar in spirit to the present version, but may differ in detail to | ||
569 | address new problems or concerns. | ||
570 | |||
571 | Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the | ||
572 | Program specifies that a certain numbered version of the GNU General | ||
573 | Public License "or any later version" applies to it, you have the | ||
574 | option of following the terms and conditions either of that numbered | ||
575 | version or of any later version published by the Free Software | ||
576 | Foundation. If the Program does not specify a version number of the | ||
577 | GNU General Public License, you may choose any version ever published | ||
578 | by the Free Software Foundation. | ||
579 | |||
580 | If the Program specifies that a proxy can decide which future | ||
581 | versions of the GNU General Public License can be used, that proxy's | ||
582 | public statement of acceptance of a version permanently authorizes you | ||
583 | to choose that version for the Program. | ||
584 | |||
585 | Later license versions may give you additional or different | ||
586 | permissions. However, no additional obligations are imposed on any | ||
587 | author or copyright holder as a result of your choosing to follow a | ||
588 | later version. | ||
589 | |||
590 | 15. Disclaimer of Warranty. | ||
591 | |||
592 | THERE IS NO WARRANTY FOR THE PROGRAM, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY | ||
593 | APPLICABLE LAW. EXCEPT WHEN OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT | ||
594 | HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER PARTIES PROVIDE THE PROGRAM "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY | ||
595 | OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, | ||
596 | THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR | ||
597 | PURPOSE. THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE PROGRAM | ||
598 | IS WITH YOU. SHOULD THE PROGRAM PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE COST OF | ||
599 | ALL NECESSARY SERVICING, REPAIR OR CORRECTION. | ||
600 | |||
601 | 16. Limitation of Liability. | ||
602 | |||
603 | IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN WRITING | ||
604 | WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MODIFIES AND/OR CONVEYS | ||
605 | THE PROGRAM AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES, INCLUDING ANY | ||
606 | GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THE | ||
607 | USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF | ||
608 | DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY YOU OR THIRD | ||
609 | PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF THE PROGRAM TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER PROGRAMS), | ||
610 | EVEN IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF | ||
611 | SUCH DAMAGES. | ||
612 | |||
613 | 17. Interpretation of Sections 15 and 16. | ||
614 | |||
615 | If the disclaimer of warranty and limitation of liability provided | ||
616 | above cannot be given local legal effect according to their terms, | ||
617 | reviewing courts shall apply local law that most closely approximates | ||
618 | an absolute waiver of all civil liability in connection with the | ||
619 | Program, unless a warranty or assumption of liability accompanies a | ||
620 | copy of the Program in return for a fee. | ||
621 | |||
622 | END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS | ||
623 | |||
624 | How to Apply These Terms to Your New Programs | ||
625 | |||
626 | If you develop a new program, and you want it to be of the greatest | ||
627 | possible use to the public, the best way to achieve this is to make it | ||
628 | free software which everyone can redistribute and change under these terms. | ||
629 | |||
630 | To do so, attach the following notices to the program. It is safest | ||
631 | to attach them to the start of each source file to most effectively | ||
632 | state the exclusion of warranty; and each file should have at least | ||
633 | the "copyright" line and a pointer to where the full notice is found. | ||
634 | |||
635 | <one line to give the program's name and a brief idea of what it does.> | ||
636 | Copyright (C) <year> <name of author> | ||
637 | |||
638 | This program is free software: you can redistribute it and/or modify | ||
639 | it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by | ||
640 | the Free Software Foundation, either version 3 of the License, or | ||
641 | (at your option) any later version. | ||
642 | |||
643 | This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful, | ||
644 | but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of | ||
645 | MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. See the | ||
646 | GNU General Public License for more details. | ||
647 | |||
648 | You should have received a copy of the GNU General Public License | ||
649 | along with this program. If not, see <http://www.gnu.org/licenses/>. | ||
650 | |||
651 | Also add information on how to contact you by electronic and paper mail. | ||
652 | |||
653 | If the program does terminal interaction, make it output a short | ||
654 | notice like this when it starts in an interactive mode: | ||
655 | |||
656 | <program> Copyright (C) <year> <name of author> | ||
657 | This program comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY; for details type `show w'. | ||
658 | This is free software, and you are welcome to redistribute it | ||
659 | under certain conditions; type `show c' for details. | ||
660 | |||
661 | The hypothetical commands `show w' and `show c' should show the appropriate | ||
662 | parts of the General Public License. Of course, your program's commands | ||
663 | might be different; for a GUI interface, you would use an "about box". | ||
664 | |||
665 | You should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer) or school, | ||
666 | if any, to sign a "copyright disclaimer" for the program, if necessary. | ||
667 | For more information on this, and how to apply and follow the GNU GPL, see | ||
668 | <http://www.gnu.org/licenses/>. | ||
669 | |||
670 | The GNU General Public License does not permit incorporating your program | ||
671 | into proprietary programs. If your program is a subroutine library, you | ||
672 | may consider it more useful to permit linking proprietary applications with | ||
673 | the library. If this is what you want to do, use the GNU Lesser General | ||
674 | Public License instead of this License. But first, please read | ||
675 | <http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/why-not-lgpl.html>. | ||
