31 * Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies
32 * of this license document, but changing it is not allowed.
33 *
34 * Preamble
35 *
36 * The licenses for most software are designed to take away your
37 * freedom to share and change it. By contrast, the GNU General Public
38 * License is intended to guarantee your freedom to share and change free
39 * software--to make sure the software is free for all its users. This
40 * General Public License applies to most of the Free Software
41 * Foundation's software and to any other program whose authors commit to
42 * using it. (Some other Free Software Foundation software is covered by
43 * the GNU Library General Public License instead.) You can apply it to
44 * your programs, too.
45 *
46 * When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not
47 * price. Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that you
48 * have the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge for
49 * this service if you wish), that you receive source code or can get it
50 * if you want it, that you can change the software or use pieces of it
51 * in new free programs; and that you know you can do these things.
52 *
53 * To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that forbid
54 * anyone to deny you these rights or to ask you to surrender the rights.
55 * These restrictions translate to certain responsibilities for you if you
56 * distribute copies of the software, or if you modify it.
57 *
58 * For example, if you distribute copies of such a program, whether
59 * gratis or for a fee, you must give the recipients all the rights that
60 * you have. You must make sure that they, too, receive or can get the
61 * source code. And you must show them these terms so they know their
62 * rights.
63 *
64 * We protect your rights with two steps: (1) copyright the software, and
65 * (2) offer you this license which gives you legal permission to copy,
66 * distribute and/or modify the software.
67 *
68 * Also, for each author's protection and ours, we want to make certain
69 * that everyone understands that there is no warranty for this free
70 * software. If the software is modified by someone else and passed on, we
71 * want its recipients to know that what they have is not the original, so
72 * that any problems introduced by others will not reflect on the original
73 * authors' reputations.
74 *
75 * Finally, any free program is threatened constantly by software
76 * patents. We wish to avoid the danger that redistributors of a free
77 * program will individually obtain patent licenses, in effect making the
78 * program proprietary. To prevent this, we have made it clear that any
79 * patent must be licensed for everyone's free use or not licensed at all.
80 *
81 * The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and
82 * modification follow.
83 *
84 * GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE
85 * TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION
86 *
87 * 0. This License applies to any program or other work which contains
88 * a notice placed by the copyright holder saying it may be distributed
89 * under the terms of this General Public License. The "Program", below,
90 * refers to any such program or work, and a "work based on the Program"
91 * means either the Program or any derivative work under copyright law:
92 * that is to say, a work containing the Program or a portion of it,
93 * either verbatim or with modifications and/or translated into another
94 * language. (Hereinafter, translation is included without limitation in
95 * the term "modification".) Each licensee is addressed as "you".
96 *
97 * Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are not
98 * covered by this License; they are outside its scope. The act of
99 * running the Program is not restricted, and the output from the Program
100 * is covered only if its contents constitute a work based on the
101 * Program (independent of having been made by running the Program).
102 * Whether that is true depends on what the Program does.
103 *
104 * 1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Program's
105 * source code as you receive it, in any medium, provided that you
106 * conspicuously and appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate
107 * copyright notice and disclaimer of warranty; keep intact all the
108 * notices that refer to this License and to the absence of any warranty;
109 * and give any other recipients of the Program a copy of this License
110 * along with the Program.
111 *
112 * You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy, and
113 * you may at your option offer warranty protection in exchange for a fee.
114 *
115 * 2. You may modify your copy or copies of the Program or any portion
116 * of it, thus forming a work based on the Program, and copy and
117 * distribute such modifications or work under the terms of Section 1
118 * above, provided that you also meet all of these conditions:
119 *
120 * a) You must cause the modified files to carry prominent notices
121 * stating that you changed the files and the date of any change.
122 *
123 * b) You must cause any work that you distribute or publish, that in
124 * whole or in part contains or is derived from the Program or any
125 * part thereof, to be licensed as a whole at no charge to all third
126 * parties under the terms of this License.
127 *
128 * c) If the modified program normally reads commands interactively
129 * when run, you must cause it, when started running for such
130 * interactive use in the most ordinary way, to print or display an
131 * announcement including an appropriate copyright notice and a
132 * notice that there is no warranty (or else, saying that you provide
133 * a warranty) and that users may redistribute the program under
134 * these conditions, and telling the user how to view a copy of this
135 * License. (Exception: if the Program itself is interactive but
136 * does not normally print such an announcement, your work based on
137 * the Program is not required to print an announcement.)
138 *
139 * These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole. If
140 * identifiable sections of that work are not derived from the Program,
141 * and can be reasonably considered independent and separate works in
142 * themselves, then this License, and its terms, do not apply to those
143 * sections when you distribute them as separate works. But when you
144 * distribute the same sections as part of a whole which is a work based
145 * on the Program, the distribution of the whole must be on the terms of
146 * this License, whose permissions for other licensees extend to the
147 * entire whole, and thus to each and every part regardless of who wrote it.
148 *
149 * Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest
150 * your rights to work written entirely by you; rather, the intent is to
151 * exercise the right to control the distribution of derivative or
152 * collective works based on the Program.
153 *
154 * In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the Program
155 * with the Program (or with a work based on the Program) on a volume of
156 * a storage or distribution medium does not bring the other work under
157 * the scope of this License.
158 *
159 * 3. You may copy and distribute the Program (or a work based on it,
160 * under Section 2) in object code or executable form under the terms of
161 * Sections 1 and 2 above provided that you also do one of the following:
162 *
163 * a) Accompany it with the complete corresponding machine-readable
164 * source code, which must be distributed under the terms of Sections
165 * 1 and 2 above on a medium customarily used for software interchange; or,
166 *
167 * b) Accompany it with a written offer, valid for at least three
168 * years, to give any third party, for a charge no more than your
169 * cost of physically performing source distribution, a complete
170 * machine-readable copy of the corresponding source code, to be
171 * distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium
172 * customarily used for software interchange; or,
173 *
174 * c) Accompany it with the information you received as to the offer
175 * to distribute corresponding source code. (This alternative is
176 * allowed only for noncommercial distribution and only if you
177 * received the program in object code or executable form with such
178 * an offer, in accord with Subsection b above.)
179 *
180 * The source code for a work means the preferred form of the work for
181 * making modifications to it. For an executable work, complete source
182 * code means all the source code for all modules it contains, plus any
183 * associated interface definition files, plus the scripts used to
184 * control compilation and installation of the executable. However, as a
185 * special exception, the source code distributed need not include
186 * anything that is normally distributed (in either source or binary
187 * form) with the major components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of the
188 * operating system on which the executable runs, unless that component
189 * itself accompanies the executable.
190 *
191 * If distribution of executable or object code is made by offering
192 * access to copy from a designated place, then offering equivalent
193 * access to copy the source code from the same place counts as
194 * distribution of the source code, even though third parties are not
195 * compelled to copy the source along with the object code.
196 *
197 * 4. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the Program
198 * except as expressly provided under this License. Any attempt
199 * otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense or distribute the Program is
200 * void, and will automatically terminate your rights under this License.
201 * However, parties who have received copies, or rights, from you under
202 * this License will not have their licenses terminated so long as such
203 * parties remain in full compliance.
204 *
205 * 5. You are not required to accept this License, since you have not
206 * signed it. However, nothing else grants you permission to modify or
207 * distribute the Program or its derivative works. These actions are
208 * prohibited by law if you do not accept this License. Therefore, by
209 * modifying or distributing the Program (or any work based on the
210 * Program), you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so, and
211 * all its terms and conditions for copying, distributing or modifying
212 * the Program or works based on it.
213 *
214 * 6. Each time you redistribute the Program (or any work based on the
215 * Program), the recipient automatically receives a license from the
216 * original licensor to copy, distribute or modify the Program subject to
217 * these terms and conditions. You may not impose any further
218 * restrictions on the recipients' exercise of the rights granted herein.
219 * You are not responsible for enforcing compliance by third parties to
220 * this License.
221 *
222 * 7. If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent
223 * infringement or for any other reason (not limited to patent issues),
224 * conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or
225 * otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not
226 * excuse you from the conditions of this License. If you cannot
227 * distribute so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this
228 * License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you
229 * may not distribute the Program at all. For example, if a patent
230 * license would not permit royalty-free redistribution of the Program by
231 * all those who receive copies directly or indirectly through you, then
232 * the only way you could satisfy both it and this License would be to
233 * refrain entirely from distribution of the Program.
234 *
235 * If any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable under
236 * any particular circumstance, the balance of the section is intended to
237 * apply and the section as a whole is intended to apply in other
238 * circumstances.
239 *
240 * It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe any
241 * patents or other property right claims or to contest validity of any
242 * such claims; this section has the sole purpose of protecting the
243 * integrity of the free software distribution system, which is
244 * implemented by public license practices. Many people have made
245 * generous contributions to the wide range of software distributed
246 * through that system in reliance on consistent application of that
247 * system; it is up to the author/donor to decide if he or she is willing
248 * to distribute software through any other system and a licensee cannot
249 * impose that choice.
250 *
251 * This section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is believed to
252 * be a consequence of the rest of this License.
253 *
254 * 8. If the distribution and/or use of the Program is restricted in
255 * certain countries either by patents or by copyrighted interfaces, the
256 * original copyright holder who places the Program under this License
257 * may add an explicit geographical distribution limitation excluding
258 * those countries, so that distribution is permitted only in or among
259 * countries not thus excluded. In such case, this License incorporates
260 * the limitation as if written in the body of this License.
261 *
262 * 9. The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions
263 * of the General Public License from time to time. Such new versions will
264 * be similar in spirit to the present version, but may differ in detail to
265 * address new problems or concerns.
266 *
267 * Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the Program
268 * specifies a version number of this License which applies to it and "any
269 * later version", you have the option of following the terms and conditions
270 * either of that version or of any later version published by the Free
271 * Software Foundation. If the Program does not specify a version number of
272 * this License, you may choose any version ever published by the Free Software
273 * Foundation.
274 *
275 * 10. If you wish to incorporate parts of the Program into other free
276 * programs whose distribution conditions are different, write to the author
277 * to ask for permission. For software which is copyrighted by the Free
278 * Software Foundation, write to the Free Software Foundation; we sometimes
279 * make exceptions for this. Our decision will be guided by the two goals
280 * of preserving the free status of all derivatives of our free software and
281 * of promoting the sharing and reuse of software generally.
282 *
283 * NO WARRANTY
284 *
285 * 11. BECAUSE THE PROGRAM IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE, THERE IS NO WARRANTY
286 * FOR THE PROGRAM, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW. EXCEPT WHEN
287 * OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER PARTIES
288 * PROVIDE THE PROGRAM "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED
289 * OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF
290 * MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. THE ENTIRE RISK AS
291 * TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE PROGRAM IS WITH YOU. SHOULD THE
292 * PROGRAM PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE COST OF ALL NECESSARY SERVICING,
293 * REPAIR OR CORRECTION.
294 *
295 * 12. IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN WRITING
296 * WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MAY MODIFY AND/OR
297 * REDISTRIBUTE THE PROGRAM AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES,
298 * INCLUDING ANY GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING
299 * OUT OF THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED
300 * TO LOSS OF DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY
301 * YOU OR THIRD PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF THE PROGRAM TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER
302 * PROGRAMS), EVEN IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE
303 * POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
304 *
305 * END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS
306 *
307 * How to Apply These Terms to Your New Programs
308 *
309 * If you develop a new program, and you want it to be of the greatest
310 * possible use to the public, the best way to achieve this is to make it
311 * free software which everyone can redistribute and change under these terms.
312 *
313 * To do so, attach the following notices to the program. It is safest
314 * to attach them to the start of each source file to most effectively
315 * convey the exclusion of warranty; and each file should have at least
316 * the "copyright" line and a pointer to where the full notice is found.
317 *
318 * <one line to give the program's name and a brief idea of what it does.>
319 * Copyright (C) <year> <name of author>
320 *
321 * This program is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify
322 * it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by
323 * the Free Software Foundation; either version 2 of the License, or
324 * (at your option) any later version.
325 *
326 * This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful,
327 * but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of
328 * MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. See the
329 * GNU General Public License for more details.
330 *
331 * You should have received a copy of the GNU General Public License
332 * along with this program; if not, write to the Free Software
333 * Foundation, Inc., 59 Temple Place, Suite 330, Boston, MA 02111-1307 USA
334 *
335 *
336 * Also add information on how to contact you by electronic and paper mail.
337 *
338 * If the program is interactive, make it output a short notice like this
339 * when it starts in an interactive mode:
340 *
341 * Gnomovision version 69, Copyright (C) year name of author
342 * Gnomovision comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY; for details type `show w'.
343 * This is free software, and you are welcome to redistribute it
344 * under certain conditions; type `show c' for details.
345 *
346 * The hypothetical commands `show w' and `show c' should show the appropriate
347 * parts of the General Public License. Of course, the commands you use may
348 * be called something other than `show w' and `show c'; they could even be
349 * mouse-clicks or menu items--whatever suits your program.
350 *
351 * You should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer) or your
352 * school, if any, to sign a "copyright disclaimer" for the program, if
353 * necessary. Here is a sample; alter the names:
354 *
355 * Yoyodyne, Inc., hereby disclaims all copyright interest in the program
356 * `Gnomovision' (which makes passes at compilers) written by James Hacker.

360 *
361 * This General Public License does not permit incorporating your program into
362 * proprietary programs. If your program is a subroutine library, you may
363 * consider it more useful to permit linking proprietary applications with the
364 * library. If this is what you want to do, use the GNU Library General
365 * Public License instead of this License.
