andre@46: GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE andre@46: Version 3, 29 June 2007 andre@46: andre@46: Copyright (C) 2007 Free Software Foundation, Inc. andre@46: Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies andre@46: of this license document, but changing it is not allowed. andre@46: andre@46: Preamble andre@46: andre@46: The GNU General Public License is a free, copyleft license for andre@46: software and other kinds of works. andre@46: andre@46: The licenses for most software and other practical works are designed andre@46: to take away your freedom to share and change the works. By contrast, andre@46: the GNU General Public License is intended to guarantee your freedom to andre@46: share and change all versions of a program--to make sure it remains free andre@46: software for all its users. We, the Free Software Foundation, use the andre@46: GNU General Public License for most of our software; it applies also to andre@46: any other work released this way by its authors. You can apply it to andre@46: your programs, too. andre@46: andre@46: When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not andre@46: price. Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that you andre@46: have the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge for andre@46: them if you wish), that you receive source code or can get it if you andre@46: want it, that you can change the software or use pieces of it in new andre@46: free programs, and that you know you can do these things. andre@46: andre@46: To protect your rights, we need to prevent others from denying you andre@46: these rights or asking you to surrender the rights. Therefore, you have andre@46: certain responsibilities if you distribute copies of the software, or if andre@46: you modify it: responsibilities to respect the freedom of others. andre@46: andre@46: For example, if you distribute copies of such a program, whether andre@46: gratis or for a fee, you must pass on to the recipients the same andre@46: freedoms that you received. You must make sure that they, too, receive andre@46: or can get the source code. And you must show them these terms so they andre@46: know their rights. andre@46: andre@46: Developers that use the GNU GPL protect your rights with two steps: andre@46: (1) assert copyright on the software, and (2) offer you this License andre@46: giving you legal permission to copy, distribute and/or modify it. andre@46: andre@46: For the developers' and authors' protection, the GPL clearly explains andre@46: that there is no warranty for this free software. For both users' and andre@46: authors' sake, the GPL requires that modified versions be marked as andre@46: changed, so that their problems will not be attributed erroneously to andre@46: authors of previous versions. andre@46: andre@46: Some devices are designed to deny users access to install or run andre@46: modified versions of the software inside them, although the manufacturer andre@46: can do so. This is fundamentally incompatible with the aim of andre@46: protecting users' freedom to change the software. The systematic andre@46: pattern of such abuse occurs in the area of products for individuals to andre@46: use, which is precisely where it is most unacceptable. Therefore, we andre@46: have designed this version of the GPL to prohibit the practice for those andre@46: products. If such problems arise substantially in other domains, we andre@46: stand ready to extend this provision to those domains in future versions andre@46: of the GPL, as needed to protect the freedom of users. andre@46: andre@46: Finally, every program is threatened constantly by software patents. andre@46: States should not allow patents to restrict development and use of andre@46: software on general-purpose computers, but in those that do, we wish to andre@46: avoid the special danger that patents applied to a free program could andre@46: make it effectively proprietary. To prevent this, the GPL assures that andre@46: patents cannot be used to render the program non-free. andre@46: andre@46: The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and andre@46: modification follow. andre@46: andre@46: TERMS AND CONDITIONS andre@46: andre@46: 0. Definitions. andre@46: andre@46: "This License" refers to version 3 of the GNU General Public License. andre@46: andre@46: "Copyright" also means copyright-like laws that apply to other kinds of andre@46: works, such as semiconductor masks. andre@46: andre@46: "The Program" refers to any copyrightable work licensed under this andre@46: License. Each licensee is addressed as "you". "Licensees" and andre@46: "recipients" may be individuals or organizations. andre@46: andre@46: To "modify" a work means to copy from or adapt all or part of the work andre@46: in a fashion requiring copyright permission, other than the making of an andre@46: exact copy. The resulting work is called a "modified version" of the andre@46: earlier work or a work "based on" the earlier work. andre@46: andre@46: A "covered work" means either the unmodified Program or a work based andre@46: on the Program. andre@46: andre@46: To "propagate" a work means to do anything with it that, without andre@46: permission, would make you directly or secondarily liable for andre@46: infringement under applicable copyright law, except executing it on a andre@46: computer or modifying a private copy. Propagation includes copying, andre@46: distribution (with or without modification), making available to the andre@46: public, and in some countries other activities as well. andre@46: andre@46: To "convey" a work means any kind of propagation that enables other andre@46: parties to make or receive copies. Mere interaction with a user through andre@46: a computer network, with no transfer of a copy, is not conveying. andre@46: andre@46: An interactive user interface displays "Appropriate Legal Notices" andre@46: to the extent that it includes a convenient and prominently visible andre@46: feature that (1) displays an appropriate copyright notice, and (2) andre@46: tells the user that there is no warranty for the work (except to the andre@46: extent that warranties are provided), that licensees may convey the andre@46: work under this License, and how to view a copy of this License. If andre@46: the interface presents a list of user commands or options, such as a andre@46: menu, a prominent item in the list meets this criterion. andre@46: andre@46: 1. Source Code. andre@46: andre@46: The "source code" for a work means the preferred form of the work andre@46: for making modifications to it. "Object code" means any non-source andre@46: form of a work. andre@46: andre@46: A "Standard Interface" means an interface that either is an official andre@46: standard defined by a recognized standards body, or, in the case of andre@46: interfaces specified for a particular programming language, one that andre@46: is widely used among developers working in that language. andre@46: andre@46: The "System Libraries" of an executable work include anything, other andre@46: than the work as a whole, that (a) is included in the normal form of andre@46: packaging a Major Component, but which is not part of that Major andre@46: Component, and (b) serves only to enable use of the work with that andre@46: Major Component, or to implement a Standard Interface for which an andre@46: implementation is available to the public in source code form. A andre@46: "Major Component", in this context, means a major essential component andre@46: (kernel, window system, and so on) of the specific operating system andre@46: (if any) on which the executable work runs, or a compiler used to andre@46: produce the work, or an object code interpreter used to run it. andre@46: andre@46: The "Corresponding Source" for a work in object code form means all andre@46: the source code needed to generate, install, and (for an executable andre@46: work) run the object code and to modify the work, including scripts to andre@46: control those activities. However, it does not include the work's andre@46: System Libraries, or general-purpose tools or generally available free andre@46: programs which are used unmodified in performing those activities but andre@46: which are not part of the work. For example, Corresponding Source andre@46: includes interface definition files associated with source files for andre@46: the work, and the source code for shared libraries and dynamically andre@46: linked subprograms that the work is specifically designed to require, andre@46: such as by intimate data communication or control flow between those andre@46: subprograms and other parts of the work. andre@46: andre@46: The Corresponding Source need not include anything that users andre@46: can regenerate automatically from other parts of the Corresponding andre@46: Source. andre@46: andre@46: The Corresponding Source for a work in source code form is that andre@46: same work. andre@46: andre@46: 2. Basic Permissions. andre@46: andre@46: All rights granted under this License are granted for the term of andre@46: copyright on the Program, and are irrevocable provided the stated andre@46: conditions are met. This License explicitly affirms your unlimited andre@46: permission to run the unmodified Program. The output from running a andre@46: covered work is covered by this License only if the output, given its andre@46: content, constitutes a covered work. This License acknowledges your andre@46: rights of fair use or other equivalent, as provided by copyright law. andre@46: andre@46: You may make, run and propagate covered works that you do not andre@46: convey, without conditions so long as your license otherwise remains andre@46: in force. You may convey covered works to others for the sole purpose andre@46: of having them make modifications exclusively for you, or provide you andre@46: with facilities for running those works, provided that you comply with andre@46: the terms of this License in conveying all material for which you do andre@46: not control copyright. Those thus making or running the covered works andre@46: for you must do so exclusively on your behalf, under your direction andre@46: and control, on terms that prohibit them from making any copies of andre@46: your copyrighted material outside their relationship with you. andre@46: andre@46: Conveying under any other circumstances is permitted solely under andre@46: the conditions stated below. Sublicensing is not allowed; section 10 andre@46: makes it unnecessary. andre@46: andre@46: 3. Protecting Users' Legal Rights From Anti-Circumvention Law. andre@46: andre@46: No covered work shall be deemed part of an effective technological andre@46: measure under any applicable law fulfilling obligations under article andre@46: 11 of the WIPO copyright treaty adopted on 20 December 1996, or andre@46: similar laws prohibiting or restricting circumvention of such andre@46: measures. andre@46: andre@46: When you convey a covered work, you waive any legal power to forbid andre@46: circumvention of technological measures to the extent such circumvention andre@46: is effected by exercising rights under this License with respect to andre@46: the covered work, and you disclaim any intention to limit operation or andre@46: modification of the work as a means of enforcing, against the work's andre@46: users, your or third parties' legal rights to forbid circumvention of andre@46: technological measures. andre@46: andre@46: 4. Conveying Verbatim Copies. andre@46: andre@46: You may convey verbatim copies of the Program's source code as you andre@46: receive it, in any medium, provided that you conspicuously and andre@46: appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate copyright notice; andre@46: keep intact all notices stating that this License and any andre@46: non-permissive terms added in accord with section 7 apply to the code; andre@46: keep intact all notices of the absence of any warranty; and give all andre@46: recipients a copy of this License along with the Program. andre@46: andre@46: You may charge any price or no price for each copy that you convey, andre@46: and you may offer support or warranty protection for a fee. andre@46: andre@46: 5. Conveying Modified Source Versions. andre@46: andre@46: You may convey a work based on the Program, or the modifications to andre@46: produce it from the Program, in the form of source code under the andre@46: terms of section 4, provided that you also meet all of these conditions: andre@46: andre@46: a) The work must carry prominent notices stating that you modified andre@46: it, and giving a relevant date. andre@46: andre@46: b) The work must carry prominent notices stating that it is andre@46: released under this License and any conditions added under section andre@46: 7. This requirement modifies the requirement in section 4 to andre@46: "keep intact all notices". andre@46: andre@46: c) You must license the entire work, as a whole, under this andre@46: License to anyone who comes into possession of a copy. This andre@46: License will therefore apply, along with any applicable section 7 andre@46: additional terms, to the whole of the work, and all its parts, andre@46: regardless of how they are packaged. This License gives no andre@46: permission to license the work in any other way, but it does not andre@46: invalidate such permission if you have separately received it. andre@46: andre@46: d) If the work has interactive user interfaces, each must display andre@46: Appropriate Legal Notices; however, if the Program has interactive andre@46: interfaces that do not display Appropriate Legal Notices, your andre@46: work need not make them do so. andre@46: andre@46: A compilation of a covered work with other separate and independent andre@46: works, which are not by their nature extensions of the covered work, andre@46: and which are not combined with it such as to form a larger program, andre@46: in or on a volume of a storage or distribution medium, is called an andre@46: "aggregate" if the compilation and its resulting copyright are not andre@46: used to limit the access or legal rights of the compilation's users andre@46: beyond what the individual works permit. Inclusion of a covered work andre@46: in an aggregate does not cause this License to apply to the other andre@46: parts of the aggregate. andre@46: andre@46: 6. Conveying Non-Source Forms. andre@46: andre@46: You may convey a covered work in object code form under the terms andre@46: of sections 4 and 5, provided that you also convey the andre@46: machine-readable Corresponding Source under the terms of this License, andre@46: in one of these ways: andre@46: andre@46: a) Convey the object code in, or embodied in, a physical product andre@46: (including a physical distribution medium), accompanied by the andre@46: Corresponding Source fixed on a durable physical medium andre@46: customarily used for software interchange. andre@46: andre@46: b) Convey the object code in, or embodied in, a physical product andre@46: (including a physical distribution medium), accompanied by a andre@46: written offer, valid for at least three years and valid for as andre@46: long as you offer spare parts or customer support for that product andre@46: model, to give anyone who possesses the object code either (1) a andre@46: copy of the Corresponding Source for all the software in the andre@46: product that is covered by this License, on a durable physical andre@46: medium customarily used for software interchange, for a price no andre@46: more than your reasonable cost of physically performing this andre@46: conveying of source, or (2) access to copy the andre@46: Corresponding Source from a network server at no charge. andre@46: andre@46: c) Convey individual copies of the object code with a copy of the andre@46: written offer to provide the Corresponding Source. This andre@46: alternative is allowed only occasionally and noncommercially, and andre@46: only if you received the object code with such an offer, in accord andre@46: with subsection 6b. andre@46: andre@46: d) Convey the object code by offering access from a designated andre@46: place (gratis or for a charge), and offer equivalent access to the andre@46: Corresponding Source in the same way through the same place at no andre@46: further charge. You need not require recipients to copy the andre@46: Corresponding Source along with the object code. If the place to andre@46: copy the object code is a network server, the Corresponding Source andre@46: may be on a different server (operated by you or a third party) andre@46: that supports equivalent copying facilities, provided you maintain andre@46: clear directions next to the object code saying where to find the andre@46: Corresponding Source. Regardless of what server hosts the andre@46: Corresponding Source, you remain obligated to ensure that it is andre@46: available for as long as needed to satisfy these requirements. andre@46: andre@46: e) Convey the object code using peer-to-peer transmission, provided andre@46: you inform other peers where the object code and Corresponding andre@46: Source of the work are being offered to the general public at no andre@46: charge under subsection 6d. andre@46: andre@46: A separable portion of the object code, whose source code is excluded andre@46: from the Corresponding Source as a System Library, need not be andre@46: included in conveying the object code work. andre@46: andre@46: A "User Product" is either (1) a "consumer product", which means any andre@46: tangible personal property which is normally used for personal, family, andre@46: or household purposes, or (2) anything designed or sold for incorporation andre@46: into a dwelling. In determining whether a product is a consumer product, andre@46: doubtful cases shall be resolved in favor of coverage. For a particular andre@46: product received by a particular user, "normally used" refers to a andre@46: typical or common use of that class of product, regardless of the status andre@46: of the particular user or of the way in which the particular user andre@46: actually uses, or expects or is expected to use, the product. A product andre@46: is a consumer product regardless of whether the product has substantial andre@46: commercial, industrial or non-consumer uses, unless such uses represent andre@46: the only significant mode of use of the product. andre@46: andre@46: "Installation Information" for a User Product means any methods, andre@46: procedures, authorization keys, or other information required to install andre@46: and execute modified versions of a covered work in that User Product from andre@46: a modified version of its Corresponding Source. The information must andre@46: suffice to ensure that the continued functioning of the modified object andre@46: code is in no case prevented or interfered with solely because andre@46: modification has been made. andre@46: andre@46: If you convey an object code work under this section in, or with, or andre@46: specifically for use in, a User Product, and the conveying occurs as andre@46: part of a transaction in which the right of possession and use of the andre@46: User Product is transferred to the recipient in perpetuity or for a andre@46: fixed term (regardless of how the transaction is characterized), the andre@46: Corresponding Source conveyed under this section must be accompanied andre@46: by the Installation Information. But this requirement does not apply andre@46: if neither you nor any third party retains the ability to install andre@46: modified object code on the User Product (for example, the work has andre@46: been installed in ROM). andre@46: andre@46: The requirement to provide Installation Information does not include a andre@46: requirement to continue to provide support service, warranty, or updates andre@46: for a work that has been modified or installed by the recipient, or for andre@46: the User Product in which it has been modified or installed. Access to a andre@46: network may be denied when the modification itself materially and andre@46: adversely affects the operation of the network or violates the rules and andre@46: protocols for communication across the network. andre@46: andre@46: Corresponding Source conveyed, and Installation Information provided, andre@46: in accord with this section must be in a format that is publicly andre@46: documented (and with an implementation available to the public in andre@46: source code form), and must require no special password or key for andre@46: unpacking, reading or copying. andre@46: andre@46: 7. Additional Terms. andre@46: andre@46: "Additional permissions" are terms that supplement the terms of this andre@46: License by making exceptions from one or more of its conditions. andre@46: Additional permissions that are applicable to the entire Program shall andre@46: be treated as though they were included in this License, to the extent andre@46: that they are valid under applicable law. If additional permissions andre@46: apply only to part of the Program, that part may be used separately andre@46: under those permissions, but the entire Program remains governed by andre@46: this License without regard to the additional permissions. andre@46: andre@46: When you convey a copy of a covered work, you may at your option andre@46: remove any additional permissions from that copy, or from any part of andre@46: it. (Additional permissions may be written to require their own andre@46: removal in certain cases when you modify the work.) You may place andre@46: additional permissions on material, added by you to a covered work, andre@46: for which you have or can give appropriate copyright permission. andre@46: andre@46: Notwithstanding any other provision of this License, for material you andre@46: add to a covered work, you may (if authorized by the copyright holders of andre@46: that material) supplement the terms of this License with terms: andre@46: andre@46: a) Disclaiming warranty or limiting liability differently from the andre@46: terms of sections 15 and 16 of this License; or andre@46: andre@46: b) Requiring preservation of specified reasonable legal notices or andre@46: author attributions in that material or in the Appropriate Legal andre@46: Notices displayed by works containing it; or andre@46: andre@46: c) Prohibiting misrepresentation of the origin of that material, or andre@46: requiring that modified versions of such material be marked in andre@46: reasonable ways as different from the original version; or andre@46: andre@46: d) Limiting the use for publicity purposes of names of licensors or andre@46: authors of the material; or andre@46: andre@46: e) Declining to grant rights under trademark law for use of some andre@46: trade names, trademarks, or service marks; or andre@46: andre@46: f) Requiring indemnification of licensors and authors of that andre@46: material by anyone who conveys the material (or modified versions of andre@46: it) with contractual assumptions of liability to the recipient, for andre@46: any liability that these contractual assumptions directly impose on andre@46: those licensors and authors. andre@46: andre@46: All other non-permissive additional terms are considered "further andre@46: restrictions" within the meaning of section 10. If the Program as you andre@46: received it, or any part of it, contains a notice stating that it is andre@46: governed by this License along with a term that is a further andre@46: restriction, you may remove that term. If a license document contains andre@46: a further restriction but permits relicensing or conveying under this andre@46: License, you may add to a covered work material governed by the terms andre@46: of that license document, provided that the further restriction does andre@46: not survive such relicensing or conveying. andre@46: andre@46: If you add terms to a covered work in accord with this section, you andre@46: must place, in the relevant source files, a statement of the andre@46: additional terms that apply to those files, or a notice indicating andre@46: where to find the applicable terms. andre@46: andre@46: Additional terms, permissive or non-permissive, may be stated in the andre@46: form of a separately written license, or stated as exceptions; andre@46: the above requirements apply either way. andre@46: andre@46: 8. Termination. andre@46: andre@46: You may not propagate or modify a covered work except as expressly andre@46: provided under this License. Any attempt otherwise to propagate or andre@46: modify it is void, and will automatically terminate your rights under andre@46: this License (including any patent licenses granted under the third andre@46: paragraph of section 11). andre@46: andre@46: However, if you cease all violation of this License, then your andre@46: license from a particular copyright holder is reinstated (a) andre@46: provisionally, unless and until the copyright holder explicitly and andre@46: finally terminates your license, and (b) permanently, if the copyright andre@46: holder fails to notify you of the violation by some reasonable means andre@46: prior to 60 days after the cessation. andre@46: andre@46: Moreover, your license from a particular copyright holder is andre@46: reinstated permanently if the copyright holder notifies you of the andre@46: violation by some reasonable means, this is the first time you have andre@46: received notice of violation of this License (for any work) from that andre@46: copyright holder, and you cure the violation prior to 30 days after andre@46: your receipt of the notice. andre@46: andre@46: Termination of your rights under this section does not terminate the andre@46: licenses of parties who have received copies or rights from you under andre@46: this License. If your rights have been terminated and not permanently andre@46: reinstated, you do not qualify to receive new licenses for the same andre@46: material under section 10. andre@46: andre@46: 9. Acceptance Not Required for Having Copies. andre@46: andre@46: You are not required to accept this License in order to receive or andre@46: run a copy of the Program. Ancillary propagation of a covered work andre@46: occurring solely as a consequence of using peer-to-peer transmission andre@46: to receive a copy likewise does not require acceptance. However, andre@46: nothing other than this License grants you permission to propagate or andre@46: modify any covered work. These actions infringe copyright if you do andre@46: not accept this License. Therefore, by modifying or propagating a andre@46: covered work, you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so. andre@46: andre@46: 10. Automatic Licensing of Downstream Recipients. andre@46: andre@46: Each time you convey a covered work, the recipient automatically andre@46: receives a license from the original licensors, to run, modify and andre@46: propagate that work, subject to this License. You are not responsible andre@46: for enforcing compliance by third parties with this License. andre@46: andre@46: An "entity transaction" is a transaction transferring control of an andre@46: organization, or substantially all assets of one, or subdividing an andre@46: organization, or merging organizations. If propagation of a covered andre@46: work results from an entity transaction, each party to that andre@46: transaction who receives a copy of the work also receives whatever andre@46: licenses to the work the party's predecessor in interest had or could andre@46: give under the previous paragraph, plus a right to possession of the andre@46: Corresponding Source of the work from the predecessor in interest, if andre@46: the predecessor has it or can get it with reasonable efforts. andre@46: andre@46: You may not impose any further restrictions on the exercise of the andre@46: rights granted or affirmed under this License. For example, you may andre@46: not impose a license fee, royalty, or other charge for exercise of andre@46: rights granted under this License, and you may not initiate litigation andre@46: (including a cross-claim or counterclaim in a lawsuit) alleging that andre@46: any patent claim is infringed by making, using, selling, offering for andre@46: sale, or importing the Program or any portion of it. andre@46: andre@46: 11. Patents. andre@46: andre@46: A "contributor" is a copyright holder who authorizes use under this andre@46: License of the Program or a work on which the Program is based. The andre@46: work thus licensed is called the contributor's "contributor version". andre@46: andre@46: A contributor's "essential patent claims" are all patent claims andre@46: owned or controlled by the contributor, whether already acquired or andre@46: hereafter acquired, that would be infringed by some manner, permitted andre@46: by this License, of making, using, or selling its contributor version, andre@46: but do not include claims that would be infringed only as a andre@46: consequence of further modification of the contributor version. For andre@46: purposes of this definition, "control" includes the right to grant andre@46: patent sublicenses in a manner consistent with the requirements of andre@46: this License. andre@46: andre@46: Each contributor grants you a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free andre@46: patent license under the contributor's essential patent claims, to andre@46: make, use, sell, offer for sale, import and otherwise run, modify and andre@46: propagate the contents of its contributor version. andre@46: andre@46: In the following three paragraphs, a "patent license" is any express andre@46: agreement or commitment, however denominated, not to enforce a patent andre@46: (such as an express permission to practice a patent or covenant not to andre@46: sue for patent infringement). To "grant" such a patent license to a andre@46: party means to make such an agreement or commitment not to enforce a andre@46: patent against the party. andre@46: andre@46: If you convey a covered work, knowingly relying on a patent license, andre@46: and the Corresponding Source of the work is not available for anyone andre@46: to copy, free of charge and under the terms of this License, through a andre@46: publicly available network server or other readily accessible means, andre@46: then you must either (1) cause the Corresponding Source to be so andre@46: available, or (2) arrange to deprive yourself of the benefit of the andre@46: patent license for this particular work, or (3) arrange, in a manner andre@46: consistent with the requirements of this License, to extend the patent andre@46: license to downstream recipients. "Knowingly relying" means you have andre@46: actual knowledge that, but for the patent license, your conveying the andre@46: covered work in a country, or your recipient's use of the covered work andre@46: in a country, would infringe one or more identifiable patents in that andre@46: country that you have reason to believe are valid. andre@46: andre@46: If, pursuant to or in connection with a single transaction or andre@46: arrangement, you convey, or propagate by procuring conveyance of, a andre@46: covered work, and grant a patent license to some of the parties andre@46: receiving the covered work authorizing them to use, propagate, modify andre@46: or convey a specific copy of the covered work, then the patent license andre@46: you grant is automatically extended to all recipients of the covered andre@46: work and works based on it. andre@46: andre@46: A patent license is "discriminatory" if it does not include within andre@46: the scope of its coverage, prohibits the exercise of, or is andre@46: conditioned on the non-exercise of one or more of the rights that are andre@46: specifically granted under this License. You may not convey a covered andre@46: work if you are a party to an arrangement with a third party that is andre@46: in the business of distributing software, under which you make payment andre@46: to the third party based on the extent of your activity of conveying andre@46: the work, and under which the third party grants, to any of the andre@46: parties who would receive the covered work from you, a discriminatory andre@46: patent license (a) in connection with copies of the covered work andre@46: conveyed by you (or copies made from those copies), or (b) primarily andre@46: for and in connection with specific products or compilations that andre@46: contain the covered work, unless you entered into that arrangement, andre@46: or that patent license was granted, prior to 28 March 2007. andre@46: andre@46: Nothing in this License shall be construed as excluding or limiting andre@46: any implied license or other defenses to infringement that may andre@46: otherwise be available to you under applicable patent law. andre@46: andre@46: 12. No Surrender of Others' Freedom. andre@46: andre@46: If conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or andre@46: otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not andre@46: excuse you from the conditions of this License. If you cannot convey a andre@46: covered work so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this andre@46: License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you may andre@46: not convey it at all. For example, if you agree to terms that obligate you andre@46: to collect a royalty for further conveying from those to whom you convey andre@46: the Program, the only way you could satisfy both those terms and this andre@46: License would be to refrain entirely from conveying the Program. andre@46: andre@46: 13. Use with the GNU Affero General Public License. andre@46: andre@46: Notwithstanding any other provision of this License, you have andre@46: permission to link or combine any covered work with a work licensed andre@46: under version 3 of the GNU Affero General Public License into a single andre@46: combined work, and to convey the resulting work. The terms of this andre@46: License will continue to apply to the part which is the covered work, andre@46: but the special requirements of the GNU Affero General Public License, andre@46: section 13, concerning interaction through a network will apply to the andre@46: combination as such. andre@46: andre@46: 14. Revised Versions of this License. andre@46: andre@46: The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions of andre@46: the GNU General Public License from time to time. Such new versions will andre@46: be similar in spirit to the present version, but may differ in detail to andre@46: address new problems or concerns. andre@46: andre@46: Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the andre@46: Program specifies that a certain numbered version of the GNU General andre@46: Public License "or any later version" applies to it, you have the andre@46: option of following the terms and conditions either of that numbered andre@46: version or of any later version published by the Free Software andre@46: Foundation. If the Program does not specify a version number of the andre@46: GNU General Public License, you may choose any version ever published andre@46: by the Free Software Foundation. andre@46: andre@46: If the Program specifies that a proxy can decide which future andre@46: versions of the GNU General Public License can be used, that proxy's andre@46: public statement of acceptance of a version permanently authorizes you andre@46: to choose that version for the Program. andre@46: andre@46: Later license versions may give you additional or different andre@46: permissions. However, no additional obligations are imposed on any andre@46: author or copyright holder as a result of your choosing to follow a andre@46: later version. andre@46: andre@46: 15. Disclaimer of Warranty. andre@46: andre@46: THERE IS NO WARRANTY FOR THE PROGRAM, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY andre@46: APPLICABLE LAW. EXCEPT WHEN OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT andre@46: HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER PARTIES PROVIDE THE PROGRAM "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY andre@46: OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, andre@46: THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR andre@46: PURPOSE. THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE PROGRAM andre@46: IS WITH YOU. SHOULD THE PROGRAM PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE COST OF andre@46: ALL NECESSARY SERVICING, REPAIR OR CORRECTION. andre@46: andre@46: 16. Limitation of Liability. andre@46: andre@46: IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN WRITING andre@46: WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MODIFIES AND/OR CONVEYS andre@46: THE PROGRAM AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES, INCLUDING ANY andre@46: GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THE andre@46: USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF andre@46: DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY YOU OR THIRD andre@46: PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF THE PROGRAM TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER PROGRAMS), andre@46: EVEN IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF andre@46: SUCH DAMAGES. andre@46: andre@46: 17. Interpretation of Sections 15 and 16. andre@46: andre@46: If the disclaimer of warranty and limitation of liability provided andre@46: above cannot be given local legal effect according to their terms, andre@46: reviewing courts shall apply local law that most closely approximates andre@46: an absolute waiver of all civil liability in connection with the andre@46: Program, unless a warranty or assumption of liability accompanies a andre@46: copy of the Program in return for a fee. andre@46: andre@46: END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS andre@46: andre@46: How to Apply These Terms to Your New Programs andre@46: andre@46: If you develop a new program, and you want it to be of the greatest andre@46: possible use to the public, the best way to achieve this is to make it andre@46: free software which everyone can redistribute and change under these terms. andre@46: andre@46: To do so, attach the following notices to the program. It is safest andre@46: to attach them to the start of each source file to most effectively andre@46: state the exclusion of warranty; and each file should have at least andre@46: the "copyright" line and a pointer to where the full notice is found. andre@46: andre@46: andre@46: Copyright (C) andre@46: andre@46: This program is free software: you can redistribute it and/or modify andre@46: it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by andre@46: the Free Software Foundation, either version 3 of the License, or andre@46: (at your option) any later version. andre@46: andre@46: This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful, andre@46: but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of andre@46: MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. See the andre@46: GNU General Public License for more details. andre@46: andre@46: You should have received a copy of the GNU General Public License andre@46: along with this program. If not, see . andre@46: andre@46: Also add information on how to contact you by electronic and paper mail. andre@46: andre@46: If the program does terminal interaction, make it output a short andre@46: notice like this when it starts in an interactive mode: andre@46: andre@46: Copyright (C) andre@46: This program comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY; for details type `show w'. andre@46: This is free software, and you are welcome to redistribute it andre@46: under certain conditions; type `show c' for details. andre@46: andre@46: The hypothetical commands `show w' and `show c' should show the appropriate andre@46: parts of the General Public License. Of course, your program's commands andre@46: might be different; for a GUI interface, you would use an "about box". andre@46: andre@46: You should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer) or school, andre@46: if any, to sign a "copyright disclaimer" for the program, if necessary. andre@46: For more information on this, and how to apply and follow the GNU GPL, see andre@46: . andre@46: andre@46: The GNU General Public License does not permit incorporating your program andre@46: into proprietary programs. If your program is a subroutine library, you andre@46: may consider it more useful to permit linking proprietary applications with andre@46: the library. If this is what you want to do, use the GNU Lesser General andre@46: Public License instead of this License. But first, please read andre@46: .
