Preamble
|
|
|
12 |
========
|
|
|
13 |
The GNU General Public License is a free, copyleft license for software and
|
|
|
14 |
other kinds of works.
|
|
|
15 |
|
|
|
16 |
The licenses for most software and other practical works are designed to
|
|
|
17 |
take away your freedom to share and change the works. By contrast, the GNU
|
|
|
18 |
General Public License is intended to guarantee your freedom to share and
|
|
|
19 |
change all versions of a program--to make sure it remains free software
|
|
|
20 |
for all its users. We, the Free Software Foundation, use the GNU General
|
|
|
21 |
Public License for most of our software; it applies also to any other work
|
|
|
22 |
released this way by its authors. You can apply it to your programs, too.
|
|
|
23 |
|
|
|
24 |
When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not price.
|
|
|
25 |
Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that you have the
|
|
|
26 |
freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge for them if you
|
|
|
27 |
wish), that you receive source code or can get it if you want it, that you
|
|
|
28 |
can change the software or use pieces of it in new free programs, and that
|
|
|
29 |
you know you can do these things.
|
|
|
30 |
|
|
|
31 |
To protect your rights, we need to prevent others from denying you these
|
|
|
32 |
rights or asking you to surrender the rights. Therefore, you have certain
|
|
|
33 |
responsibilities if you distribute copies of the software, or if you modify
|
|
|
34 |
it: responsibilities to respect the freedom of others.
|
|
|
35 |
|
|
|
36 |
For example, if you distribute copies of such a program, whether gratis or
|
|
|
37 |
for a fee, you must pass on to the recipients the same freedoms that you
|
|
|
38 |
received. You must make sure that they, too, receive or can get the source
|
|
|
39 |
code. And you must show them these terms so they 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 that
|
|
|
46 |
there is no warranty for this free software. For both users' and authors'
|
|
|
47 |
sake, the GPL requires that modified versions be marked as changed, so that
|
|
|
48 |
their problems will not be attributed erroneously to authors of previous
|
|
|
49 |
versions.
|
|
|
50 |
|
|
|
51 |
Some devices are designed to deny users access to install or run modified
|
|
|
52 |
versions of the software inside them, although the manufacturer can do so.
|
|
|
53 |
This is fundamentally incompatible with the aim of protecting users'
|
|
|
54 |
freedom to change the software. The systematic pattern of such abuse occurs
|
|
|
55 |
in the area of products for individuals to use, which is precisely where it
|
|
|
56 |
is most unacceptable. Therefore, we have designed this version of the GPL
|
|
|
57 |
to prohibit the practice for those products. If such problems arise
|
|
|
58 |
substantially in other domains, we stand ready to extend this provision to
|
|
|
59 |
those domains in future versions of the GPL, as needed to protect the
|
|
|
60 |
freedom of users.
|
|
|
61 |
|
|
|
62 |
Finally, every program is threatened constantly by software patents. States
|
|
|
63 |
should not allow patents to restrict development and use of software on
|
|
|
64 |
general-purpose computers, but in those that do, we wish to avoid the
|
|
|
65 |
special danger that patents applied to a free program could make it
|
|
|
66 |
effectively proprietary. To prevent this, the GPL assures that patents
|
|
|
67 |
cannot be used to render the program non-free.
|
|
|
68 |
|
|
|
69 |
The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and modification
|
|
|
70 |
follow.
|
|
|

|
|
72 |
TERMS AND CONDITIONS
|
|
|
73 |
0. Definitions.
|
|
|
74 |
|
|
|
75 |
“This License” refers to version 3 of the GNU General Public License.
|
|
|
76 |
|
|
|
77 |
“Copyright” also means copyright-like laws that apply to other kinds of
|
|
|
78 |
works, such as semiconductor masks.
|
|
|
79 |
|
|
|
80 |
“The Program” refers to any copyrightable work licensed under this License.
|
|
|
81 |
Each licensee is addressed as “you”. “Licensees” and “recipients” may be
|
|
|
82 |
individuals or organizations.
|
|
|
83 |
|
|
|
84 |
To “modify” a work means to copy from or adapt all or part of the work in a
|
|
|
85 |
fashion requiring copyright permission, other than the making of an exact
|
|
|
86 |
copy. The resulting work is called a “modified version” of the earlier work
|
|
|
87 |
or a work “based on” the earlier work.
|
|
|
88 |
|
|
|
89 |
A “covered work” means either the unmodified Program or a work based on the
|
|
|
90 |
Program.
|
|
|
91 |
|
|
|
92 |
To “propagate” a work means to do anything with it that, without
|
|
|
93 |
permission, would make you directly or secondarily liable for infringement
|
|
|
94 |
under applicable copyright law, except executing it on a computer or
|
|
|
95 |
modifying a private copy. Propagation includes copying, distribution (with
|
|
|
96 |
or without modification), making available to the public, and in some
|
|
|
97 |
countries other activities as well.
|
|
|
98 |
|
|
|
99 |
To “convey” a work means any kind of propagation that enables other parties
|
|
|
100 |
to make or receive copies. Mere interaction with a user through a computer
|
|
|
101 |
network, with no transfer of a copy, is not conveying.
|
|
|
102 |
|
|
|
103 |
An interactive user interface displays “Appropriate Legal Notices” to the
|
|
|
104 |
extent that it includes a convenient and prominently visible feature that
|
|
|
105 |
(1) displays an appropriate copyright notice, and (2) tells the user that
|
|
|
106 |
there is no warranty for the work (except to the extent that warranties are
|
|
|
107 |
provided), that licensees may convey the work under this License, and how
|
|
|
108 |
to view a copy of this License. If the interface presents a list of user
|
|
|
109 |
commands or options, such as a menu, a prominent item in the list meets
|
|
|
110 |
this criterion.
|
|
|
111 |
1. Source Code.
|
|
|
112 |
|
|
|
113 |
The “source code” for a work means the preferred form of the work for
|
|
|
114 |
making modifications to it. “Object code” means any non-source form of a
|
|
|
115 |
work.
|
|
|
116 |
|
|
|
117 |
A “Standard Interface” means an interface that either is an official
|
|
|
118 |
standard defined by a recognized standards body, or, in the case of
|
|
|
119 |
interfaces specified for a particular programming language, one that is
|
|
|
120 |
widely used among developers working in that language.
|
|
|
121 |
|
|
|
122 |
The “System Libraries” of an executable work include anything, other than
|
|
|
123 |
the work as a whole, that (a) is included in the normal form of packaging a
|
|
|
124 |
Major Component, but which is not part of that Major Component, and (b)
|
|
|
125 |
serves only to enable use of the work with that Major Component, or to
|
|
|
126 |
implement a Standard Interface for which an implementation is available to
|
|
|
127 |
the public in source code form. A “Major Component”, in this context, means
|
|
|
128 |
a major essential component (kernel, window system, and so on) of the
|
|
|
129 |
specific operating system (if any) on which the executable work runs, or a
|
|
|
130 |
compiler used to produce the work, or an object code interpreter used to
|
|
|
131 |
run it.
|
|
|
132 |
|
|
|
133 |
The “Corresponding Source” for a work in object code form means all the
|
|
|
134 |
source code needed to generate, install, and (for an executable work) run
|
|
|
135 |
the object code and to modify the work, including scripts to control those
|
|
|
136 |
activities. However, it does not include the work's System Libraries, or
|
|
|
137 |
general-purpose tools or generally available free programs which are used
|
|
|
138 |
unmodified in performing those activities but which are not part of the
|
|
|
139 |
work. For example, Corresponding Source includes interface definition files
|
|
|
140 |
associated with source files for the work, and the source code for shared
|
|
|
141 |
libraries and dynamically linked subprograms that the work is specifically
|
|
|
142 |
designed to require, such as by intimate data communication or control flow
|
|
|
143 |
between those subprograms and other parts of the work.
|
|
|
144 |
|
|
|
145 |
The Corresponding Source need not include anything that users can
|
|
|
146 |
regenerate automatically from other parts of the Corresponding Source.
|
|
|
147 |
|
|
|
148 |
The Corresponding Source for a work in source code form is that same work.
|
|
|
149 |
|
|
|
150 |
2. Basic Permissions.
|
|
|
151 |
=====================
|
|
|
152 |
All rights granted under this License are granted for the term of copyright
|
|
|
153 |
on the Program, and are irrevocable provided the stated conditions are met.
|
|
|
154 |
This License explicitly affirms your unlimited permission to run the
|
|
|
155 |
unmodified Program. The output from running a covered work is covered by
|
|
|
156 |
this License only if the output, given its content, constitutes a covered
|
|
|
157 |
work. This License acknowledges your rights of fair use or other
|
|
|
158 |
equivalent, as provided by copyright law.
|
|
|
159 |
|
|
|
160 |
You may make, run and propagate covered works that you do not convey,
|
|
|
161 |
without conditions so long as your license otherwise remains in force. You
|
|
|
162 |
may convey covered works to others for the sole purpose of having them make
|
|
|
163 |
modifications exclusively for you, or provide you with facilities for
|
|
|
164 |
running those works, provided that you comply with the terms of this
|
|
|
165 |
License in conveying all material for which you do not control copyright.
|
|
|
166 |
Those thus making or running the covered works for you must do so
|
|
|
167 |
exclusively on your behalf, under your direction and control, on terms that
|
|
|
168 |
prohibit them from making any copies of your copyrighted material outside
|
|
|
169 |
their relationship with you.
|
|
|
170 |
|
|
|
171 |
Conveying under any other circumstances is permitted solely under the
|
|
|
172 |
conditions stated below. Sublicensing is not allowed; section 10 makes it
|
|
|
173 |
unnecessary. 3. Protecting Users' Legal Rights From Anti-Circumvention Law.
|
|
|
174 |
|
|
|
175 |
No covered work shall be deemed part of an effective technological measure
|
|
|
176 |
under any applicable law fulfilling obligations under article 11 of the
|
|
|
177 |
WIPO copyright treaty adopted on 20 December 1996, or similar laws
|
|
|
178 |
prohibiting or restricting circumvention of such measures.
|
|
|
179 |
|
|
|
180 |
When you convey a covered work, you waive any legal power to forbid
|
|
|
181 |
circumvention of technological measures to the extent such circumvention is
|
|
|
182 |
effected by exercising rights under this License with respect to the
|
|
|
183 |
covered work, and you disclaim any intention to limit operation or
|
|
|
184 |
modification of the work as a means of enforcing, against the work's users,
|
|
|
185 |
your or third parties' legal rights to forbid circumvention of
|
|
|
186 |
technological measures. 4. Conveying Verbatim Copies.
|
|
|
187 |
|
|
|
188 |
You may convey verbatim copies of the Program's source code as you receive
|
|
|
189 |
it, in any medium, provided that you conspicuously and appropriately
|
|
|
190 |
publish on each copy an appropriate copyright notice; keep intact all
|
|
|
191 |
notices stating that this License and any non-permissive terms added in
|
|
|
192 |
accord with section 7 apply to the code; keep intact all notices of the
|
|
|
193 |
absence of any warranty; and give all recipients a copy of this License
|
|
|
194 |
along with the Program.
|
|
|
195 |
|
|
|
196 |
You may charge any price or no price for each copy that you convey, and you
|
|
|
197 |
may offer support or warranty protection for a fee. 5. Conveying Modified
|
|
|
198 |
Source Versions.
|
|
|
199 |
|
|
|
200 |
You may convey a work based on the Program, or the modifications to produce
|
|
|
201 |
it from the Program, in the form of source code under the terms of section
|
|
|
202 |
4, provided that you also meet all of these conditions:
|
|
|
203 |
|
|
|
204 |
a) The work must carry prominent notices stating that you modified it,
|
|
|
205 |
and giving a relevant date. b) The work must carry prominent notices
|
|
|
206 |
stating that it is released under this License and any conditions added
|
|
|
207 |
under section 7. This requirement modifies the requirement in section 4 to
|
|
|
208 |
“keep intact all notices”. c) You must license the entire work, as a whole,
|
|
|
209 |
under this License to anyone who comes into possession of a copy. This
|
|
|
210 |
License will therefore apply, along with any applicable section 7
|
|
|
211 |
additional terms, to the whole of the work, and all its parts, regardless
|
|
|
212 |
of how they are packaged. This License gives no permission to license the
|
|
|
213 |
work in any other way, but it does not invalidate such permission if you
|
|
|
214 |
have separately received it. d) If the work has interactive user
|
|
|
215 |
interfaces, each must display Appropriate Legal Notices; however, if the
|
|
|
216 |
Program has interactive interfaces that do not display Appropriate Legal
|
|
|
217 |
Notices, your work need not make them do so.
|
|
|
218 |
|
|
|
219 |
A compilation of a covered work with other separate and independent works,
|
|
|
220 |
which are not by their nature extensions of the covered work, and which are
|
|
|
221 |
not combined with it such as to form a larger program, in or on a volume of
|
|
|
222 |
a storage or distribution medium, is called an “aggregate” if the
|
|
|
223 |
compilation and its resulting copyright are not used to limit the access or
|
|
|
224 |
legal rights of the compilation's users beyond what the individual works
|
|
|
225 |
permit. Inclusion of a covered work in an aggregate does not cause this
|
|
|
226 |
License to apply to the other parts of the aggregate. 6. Conveying
|
|
|
227 |
Non-Source Forms.
|
|
|
228 |
|
|
|
229 |
You may convey a covered work in object code form under the terms of
|
|
|
230 |
sections 4 and 5, provided that you also convey the machine-readable
|
|
|
231 |
Corresponding Source under the terms of this License, in one of these ways:
|
|
|
232 |
|
|
|
233 |
a) Convey the object code in, or embodied in, a physical product
|
|
|
234 |
(including a physical distribution medium), accompanied by the
|
|
|
235 |
Corresponding Source fixed on a durable physical medium customarily used
|
|
|
236 |
for software interchange. b) Convey the object code in, or embodied in, a
|
|
|
237 |
physical product (including a physical distribution medium), accompanied by
|
|
|
238 |
a written offer, valid for at least three years and valid for as long as
|
|
|
239 |
you offer spare parts or customer support for that product model, to give
|
|
|
240 |
anyone who possesses the object code either (1) a copy of the Corresponding
|
|
|
241 |
Source for all the software in the product that is covered by this License,
|
|
|
242 |
on a durable physical medium customarily used for software interchange, for
|
|
|
243 |
a price no more than your reasonable cost of physically performing this
|
|
|
244 |
conveying of source, or (2) access to copy the Corresponding Source from a
|
|
|
245 |
network server at no charge. c) Convey individual copies of the object code
|
|
|
246 |
with a copy of the written offer to provide the Corresponding Source. This
|
|
|
247 |
alternative is allowed only occasionally and noncommercially, and only if
|
|
|
248 |
you received the object code with such an offer, in accord with subsection
|
|
|
249 |
6b. d) Convey the object code by offering access from a designated place
|
|
|
250 |
(gratis or for a charge), and offer equivalent access to the Corresponding
|
|
|
251 |
Source in the same way through the same place at no further charge. You
|
|
|
252 |
need not require recipients to copy the Corresponding Source along with the
|
|
|
253 |
object code. If the place to copy the object code is a network server, the
|
|
|
254 |
Corresponding Source may be on a different server (operated by you or a
|
|
|
255 |
third party) that supports equivalent copying facilities, provided you
|
|
|
256 |
maintain clear directions next to the object code saying where to find the
|
|
|
257 |
Corresponding Source. Regardless of what server hosts the Corresponding
|
|
|
258 |
Source, you remain obligated to ensure that it is available for as long as
|
|
|
259 |
needed to satisfy these requirements. e) Convey the object code using
|
|
|
260 |
peer-to-peer transmission, provided you inform other peers where the object
|
|
|
261 |
code and Corresponding Source of the work are being offered to the general
|
|
|
262 |
public at no charge under subsection 6d.
|
|
|
263 |
|
|
|
264 |
A separable portion of the object code, whose source code is excluded from
|
|
|
265 |
the Corresponding Source as a System Library, need not be included in
|
|
|
266 |
conveying the object code work.
|
|
|
267 |
|
|
|
268 |
A “User Product” is either (1) a “consumer product”, which means any
|
|
|
269 |
tangible personal property which is normally used for personal, family, or
|
|
|
270 |
household purposes, or (2) anything designed or sold for incorporation into
|
|
|
271 |
a dwelling. In determining whether a product is a consumer product,
|
|
|
272 |
doubtful cases shall be resolved in favor of coverage. For a particular
|
|
|
273 |
product received by a particular user, “normally used” refers to a typical
|
|
|
274 |
or common use of that class of product, regardless of the status of the
|
|
|
275 |
particular user or of the way in which the particular user actually uses,
|
|
|
276 |
or expects or is expected to use, the product. A product is a consumer
|
|
|
277 |
product regardless of whether the product has substantial commercial,
|
|
|
278 |
industrial or non-consumer uses, unless such uses represent the only
|
|
|
279 |
significant mode of use of the product.
|
|
|
280 |
|
|
|
281 |
“Installation Information” for a User Product means any methods,
|
|
|
282 |
procedures, authorization keys, or other information required to install
|
|
|
283 |
and execute modified versions of a covered work in that User Product from a
|
|
|
284 |
modified version of its Corresponding Source. The information must suffice
|
|
|
285 |
to ensure that the continued functioning of the modified object code is in
|
|
|
286 |
no case prevented or interfered with solely because modification has been
|
|
|
287 |
made.
|
|
|
288 |
|
|
|
289 |
If you convey an object code work under this section in, or with, or
|
|
|
290 |
specifically for use in, a User Product, and the conveying occurs as part
|
|
|
291 |
of a transaction in which the right of possession and use of the User
|
|
|
292 |
Product is transferred to the recipient in perpetuity or for a fixed term
|
|
|
293 |
(regardless of how the transaction is characterized), the Corresponding
|
|
|
294 |
Source conveyed under this section must be accompanied by the Installation
|
|
|
295 |
Information. But this requirement does not apply if neither you nor any
|
|
|
296 |
third party retains the ability to install modified object code on the User
|
|
|
297 |
Product (for example, the work has been installed in ROM).
|
|
|
298 |
|
|
|
299 |
The requirement to provide Installation Information does not include a
|
|
|
300 |
requirement to continue to provide support service, warranty, or updates
|
|
|
301 |
for a work that has been modified or installed by the recipient, or for the
|
|
|
302 |
User Product in which it has been modified or installed. Access to a
|
|
|
303 |
network may be denied when the modification itself materially and adversely
|
|
|
304 |
affects the operation of the network or violates the rules and protocols
|
|
|
305 |
for communication across the network.
|
|
|
306 |
|
|
|
307 |
Corresponding Source conveyed, and Installation Information provided, in
|
|
|
308 |
accord with this section must be in a format that is publicly documented
|
|
|
309 |
(and with an implementation available to the public in source code form),
|
|
|
310 |
and must require no special password or key for unpacking, reading or
|
|
|
311 |
copying. 7. Additional Terms.
|
|
|
312 |
|
|
|
313 |
“Additional permissions” are terms that supplement the terms of this
|
|
|
314 |
License by making exceptions from one or more of its conditions. Additional
|
|
|
315 |
permissions that are applicable to the entire Program shall be treated as
|
|
|
316 |
though they were included in this License, to the extent that they are
|
|
|
317 |
valid under applicable law. If additional permissions apply only to part of
|
|
|
318 |
the Program, that part may be used separately under those permissions, but
|
|
|
319 |
the entire Program remains governed by this License without regard to the
|
|
|
320 |
additional permissions.
|
|
|
321 |
|
|
|
322 |
When you convey a copy of a covered work, you may at your option remove any
|
|
|
323 |
additional permissions from that copy, or from any part of it. (Additional
|
|
|
324 |
permissions may be written to require their own removal in certain cases
|
|
|
325 |
when you modify the work.) You may place additional permissions on
|
|
|
326 |
material, added by you to a covered work, for which you have or can give
|
|
|
327 |
appropriate copyright permission.
|
|
|
328 |
|
|
|
329 |
Notwithstanding any other provision of this License, for material you add
|
|
|
330 |
to a covered work, you may (if authorized by the copyright holders of that
|
|
|
331 |
material) supplement the terms of this License with terms:
|
|
|
332 |
|
|
|
333 |
a) Disclaiming warranty or limiting liability differently from the
|
|
|
334 |
terms of sections 15 and 16 of this License; or
|
|
|
335 |
b) Requiring preservation of specified reasonable legal notices or
|
|
|
336 |
author attributions in that material or in the Appropriate Legal Notices
|
|
|
337 |
displayed by works containing it; or
|
|
|
338 |
c) Prohibiting misrepresentation of the origin of that material, or
|
|
|
339 |
requiring that modified versions of such material be marked in reasonable
|
|
|
340 |
ways as different from the original version; or
|
|
|
341 |
d) Limiting the use for publicity purposes of names of licensors or
|
|
|
342 |
authors of the material; or
|
|
|
343 |
e) Declining to grant rights under trademark law for use of some trade
|
|
|
344 |
names, trademarks, or service marks; or f) Requiring indemnification of
|
|
|
345 |
licensors and authors of that material by anyone who conveys the material
|
|
|
346 |
(or modified versions of it) with contractual assumptions of liability to
|
|
|
347 |
the recipient, for any liability that these contractual assumptions
|
|
|
348 |
directly impose on those licensors and authors.
|
|
|
349 |
|
|
|
350 |
All other non-permissive additional terms are considered “further
|
|
|
351 |
restrictions” within the meaning of section 10. If the Program as you
|
|
|
352 |
received it, or any part of it, contains a notice stating that it is
|
|
|
353 |
governed by this License along with a term that is a further restriction,
|
|
|
354 |
you may remove that term. If a license document contains a further
|
|
|
355 |
restriction but permits relicensing or conveying under this License, you
|
|
|
356 |
may add to a covered work material governed by the terms of that license
|
|
|
357 |
document, provided that the further restriction does not survive such
|
|
|
358 |
relicensing or conveying.
|
|
|
359 |
|
|
|
360 |
If you add terms to a covered work in accord with this section, you must
|
|
|
361 |
place, in the relevant source files, a statement of the additional terms
|
|
|
362 |
that apply to those files, or a notice indicating where to find the
|
|
|
363 |
applicable terms.
|
|
|
364 |
|
|
|
365 |
Additional terms, permissive or non-permissive, may be stated in the form
|
|
|
366 |
of a separately written license, or stated as exceptions; the above
|
|
|
367 |
requirements apply either way. 8. Termination.
|
|
|
368 |
|
|
|
369 |
You may not propagate or modify a covered work except as expressly provided
|
|
|
370 |
under this License. Any attempt otherwise to propagate or modify it is
|
|
|
371 |
void, and will automatically terminate your rights under this License
|
|
|
372 |
(including any patent licenses granted under the third paragraph of section
|
|
|
373 |
11).
|
|
|
374 |
|
|
|
375 |
However, if you cease all violation of this License, then your license from
|
|
|
376 |
a particular copyright holder is reinstated (a) provisionally, unless and
|
|
|
377 |
until the copyright holder explicitly and finally terminates your license,
|
|
|
378 |
and (b) permanently, if the copyright holder fails to notify you of the
|
|
|
379 |
violation by some reasonable means prior to 60 days after the cessation.
|
|
|
380 |
|
|
|
381 |
Moreover, your license from a particular copyright holder is reinstated
|
|
|
382 |
permanently if the copyright holder notifies you of the violation by some
|
|
|
383 |
reasonable means, this is the first time you have received notice of
|
|
|
384 |
violation of this License (for any work) from that copyright holder, and
|
|
|
385 |
you cure the violation prior to 30 days after your receipt of the notice.
|
|
|
386 |
|
|
|
387 |
Termination of your rights under this section does not terminate the
|
|
|
388 |
licenses of parties who have received copies or rights from you under this
|
|
|
389 |
License. If your rights have been terminated and not permanently
|
|
|
390 |
reinstated, you do not qualify to receive new licenses for the same
|
|
|
391 |
material under section 10. 9. Acceptance Not Required for Having Copies.
|
|
|
392 |
|
|
|
393 |
You are not required to accept this License in order to receive or run a
|
|
|
394 |
copy of the Program. Ancillary propagation of a covered work occurring
|
|
|
395 |
solely as a consequence of using peer-to-peer transmission to receive a
|
|
|
396 |
copy likewise does not require acceptance. However, nothing other than this
|
|
|
397 |
License grants you permission to propagate or modify any covered work.
|
|
|
398 |
These actions infringe copyright if you do not accept this License.
|
|
|
399 |
Therefore, by modifying or propagating a covered work, you indicate your
|
|
|
400 |
acceptance of this License to do so. 10. Automatic Licensing of Downstream
|
|
|
401 |
Recipients.
|
|
|
402 |
|
|
|
403 |
Each time you convey a covered work, the recipient automatically receives a
|
|
|
404 |
license from the original licensors, to run, modify and propagate that
|
|
|
405 |
work, subject to this License. You are not responsible for enforcing
|
|
|
406 |
compliance by third parties with this License.
|
|
|
407 |
|
|
|
408 |
An “entity transaction” is a transaction transferring control of an
|
|
|
409 |
organization, or substantially all assets of one, or subdividing an
|
|
|
410 |
organization, or merging organizations. If propagation of a covered work
|
|
|
411 |
results from an entity transaction, each party to that transaction who
|
|
|
412 |
receives a copy of the work also receives whatever licenses to the work the
|
|
|
413 |
party's predecessor in interest had or could give under the previous
|
|
|
414 |
paragraph, plus a right to possession of the Corresponding Source of the
|
|
|
415 |
work from the predecessor in interest, if the predecessor has it or can get
|
|
|
416 |
it with reasonable efforts.
|
|
|
417 |
|
|
|
418 |
You may not impose any further restrictions on the exercise of the rights
|
|
|
419 |
granted or affirmed under this License. For example, you may not impose a
|
|
|
420 |
license fee, royalty, or other charge for exercise of rights granted under
|
|
|
421 |
this License, and you may not initiate litigation (including a cross-claim
|
|
|
422 |
or counterclaim in a lawsuit) alleging that any patent claim is infringed
|
|
|
423 |
by making, using, selling, offering for sale, or importing the Program or
|
|
|
424 |
any portion of it. 11. Patents.
|
|
|
425 |
|
|
|
426 |
A “contributor” is a copyright holder who authorizes use under this License
|
|
|
427 |
of the Program or a work on which the Program is based. The work thus
|
|
|
428 |
licensed is called the contributor's “contributor version”.
|
|
|
429 |
|
|
|
430 |
A contributor's “essential patent claims” are all patent claims owned or
|
|
|
431 |
controlled by the contributor, whether already acquired or hereafter
|
|
|
432 |
acquired, that would be infringed by some manner, permitted by this
|
|
|
433 |
License, of making, using, or selling its contributor version, but do not
|
|
|
434 |
include claims that would be infringed only as a consequence of further
|
|
|
435 |
modification of the contributor version. For purposes of this definition,
|
|
|
436 |
“control” includes the right to grant patent sublicenses in a manner
|
|
|
437 |
consistent with the requirements of this License.
|
|
|
438 |
|
|
|
439 |
Each contributor grants you a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free patent
|
|
|
440 |
license under the contributor's essential patent claims, to make, use,
|
|
|
441 |
sell, offer for sale, import and otherwise run, modify and propagate the
|
|
|
442 |
contents of its contributor version.
|
|
|
443 |
|
|
|
444 |
In the following three paragraphs, a “patent license” is any express
|
|
|
445 |
agreement or commitment, however denominated, not to enforce a patent (such
|
|
|
446 |
as an express permission to practice a patent or covenant not to sue for
|
|
|
447 |
patent infringement). To “grant” such a patent license to a party means to
|
|
|
448 |
make such an agreement or commitment not to enforce a patent against the
|
|
|
449 |
party.
|
|
|
450 |
|
|
|
451 |
If you convey a covered work, knowingly relying on a patent license, and
|
|
|
452 |
the Corresponding Source of the work is not available for anyone to copy,
|
|
|
453 |
free of charge and under the terms of this License, through a publicly
|
|
|
454 |
available network server or other readily accessible means, then you must
|
|
|
455 |
either (1) cause the Corresponding Source to be so available, or (2)
|
|
|
456 |
arrange to deprive yourself of the benefit of the patent license for this
|
|
|
457 |
particular work, or (3) arrange, in a manner consistent with the
|
|
|
458 |
requirements of this License, to extend the patent license to downstream
|
|
|
459 |
recipients. “Knowingly relying” means you have actual knowledge that, but
|
|
|
460 |
for the patent license, your conveying the covered work in a country, or
|
|
|
461 |
your recipient's use of the covered work in a country, would infringe one
|
|
|
462 |
or more identifiable patents in that country that you have reason to
|
|
|
463 |
believe are valid.
|
|
|
464 |
|
|
|
465 |
If, pursuant to or in connection with a single transaction or arrangement,
|
|
|
466 |
you convey, or propagate by procuring conveyance of, a covered work, and
|
|
|
467 |
grant a patent license to some of the parties receiving the covered work
|
|
|
468 |
authorizing them to use, propagate, modify or convey a specific copy of the
|
|
|
469 |
covered work, then the patent license you grant is automatically extended
|
|
|
470 |
to all recipients of the covered work and works based on it.
|
|
|
471 |
|
|
|
472 |
A patent license is “discriminatory” if it does not include within the
|
|
|
473 |
scope of its coverage, prohibits the exercise of, or is conditioned on the
|
|
|
474 |
non-exercise of one or more of the rights that are specifically granted
|
|
|
475 |
under this License. You may not convey a covered work if you are a party to
|
|
|
476 |
an arrangement with a third party that is in the business of distributing
|
|
|
477 |
software, under which you make payment to the third party based on the
|
|
|
478 |
extent of your activity of conveying the work, and under which the third
|
|
|
479 |
party grants, to any of the parties who would receive the covered work from
|
|
|
480 |
you, a discriminatory patent license (a) in connection with copies of the
|
|
|
481 |
covered work conveyed by you (or copies made from those copies), or (b)
|
|
|
482 |
primarily for and in connection with specific products or compilations that
|
|
|
483 |
contain the covered work, unless you entered into that arrangement, or that
|
|
|
484 |
patent license was granted, prior to 28 March 2007.
|
|
|
485 |
|
|
|
486 |
Nothing in this License shall be construed as excluding or limiting any
|
|
|
487 |
implied license or other defenses to infringement that may otherwise be
|
|
|
488 |
available to you under applicable patent law. 12. No Surrender of Others'
|
|
|
489 |
Freedom.
|
|
|
490 |
|
|
|
491 |
If conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or
|
|
|
492 |
otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not
|
|
|
493 |
excuse you from the conditions of this License. If you cannot convey a
|
|
|
494 |
covered work so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this
|
|
|
495 |
License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you may
|
|
|
496 |
not convey it at all. For example, if you agree to terms that obligate you
|
|
|
497 |
to collect a royalty for further conveying from those to whom you convey
|
|
|
498 |
the Program, the only way you could satisfy both those terms and this
|
|
|
499 |
License would be to refrain entirely from conveying the Program. 13. Use
|
|
|
500 |
with the GNU Affero General Public License.
|
|
|
501 |
|
|
|
502 |
Notwithstanding any other provision of this License, you have permission to
|
|
|
503 |
link or combine any covered work with a work licensed under version 3 of
|
|
|
504 |
the GNU Affero General Public License into a single combined work, and to
|
|
|
505 |
convey the resulting work. The terms of this License will continue to apply
|
|
|
506 |
to the part which is the covered work, but the special requirements of the
|
|
|
507 |
GNU Affero General Public License, section 13, concerning interaction
|
|
|
508 |
through a network will apply to the combination as such. 14. Revised
|
|
|
509 |
Versions of this License.
|
|
|
510 |
|
|
|
511 |
The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions of the
|
|
|
512 |
GNU General Public License from time to time. Such new versions will be
|
|
|
513 |
similar in spirit to the present version, but may differ in detail to
|
|
|
514 |
address new problems or concerns.
|
|
|
515 |
|
|
|
516 |
Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the Program
|
|
|
517 |
specifies that a certain numbered version of the GNU General Public License
|
|
|
518 |
“or any later version” applies to it, you have the option of following the
|
|
|
519 |
terms and conditions either of that numbered version or of any later
|
|
|
520 |
version published by the Free Software Foundation. If the Program does not
|
|
|
521 |
specify a version number of the GNU General Public License, you may choose
|
|
|
522 |
any version ever published by the Free Software Foundation.
|
|
|
523 |
|
|
|
524 |
If the Program specifies that a proxy can decide which future versions of
|
|
|
525 |
the GNU General Public License can be used, that proxy's public statement
|
|
|
526 |
of acceptance of a version permanently authorizes you to choose that
|
|
|
527 |
version for the Program.
|
|
|
528 |
|
|
|
529 |
Later license versions may give you additional or different permissions.
|
|
|
530 |
However, no additional obligations are imposed on any author or copyright
|
|
|
531 |
holder as a result of your choosing to follow a later version. 15.
|
|
|
532 |
Disclaimer of Warranty.
|
|
|
533 |
|
|
|
534 |
THERE IS NO WARRANTY FOR THE PROGRAM, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE
|
|
|
535 |
LAW. EXCEPT WHEN OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS AND/OR
|
|
|
536 |
OTHER PARTIES PROVIDE THE PROGRAM “AS IS” WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND,
|
|
|
537 |
EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED
|
|
|
538 |
WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. THE
|
|
|
539 |
ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE PROGRAM IS WITH YOU.
|
|
|
540 |
SHOULD THE PROGRAM PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE COST OF ALL NECESSARY
|
|
|
541 |
SERVICING, REPAIR OR CORRECTION. 16. Limitation of Liability.
|
|
|
542 |
|
|
|
543 |
IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN WRITING WILL
|
|
|
544 |
ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MODIFIES AND/OR CONVEYS THE
|
|
|
545 |
PROGRAM AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES, INCLUDING ANY
|
|
|
546 |
GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THE
|
|
|
547 |
USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF
|
|
|
548 |
DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY YOU OR THIRD
|
|
|
549 |
PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF THE PROGRAM TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER PROGRAMS),
|
|
|
550 |
EVEN IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF
|
|
|
551 |
SUCH DAMAGES. 17. Interpretation of Sections 15 and 16.
|
|
|
552 |
|
|
|
553 |
If the disclaimer of warranty and limitation of liability provided above
|
|
|
554 |
cannot be given local legal effect according to their terms, reviewing
|
|
|
555 |
courts shall apply local law that most closely approximates an absolute
|
|
|
556 |
waiver of all civil liability in connection with the Program, unless a
|
|
|
557 |
warranty or assumption of liability accompanies a copy of the Program in
|
|
|
558 |
return for a fee.
|
|
|
559 |
|
|
|
560 |
END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS How to Apply These Terms to Your New Programs
|
|
|
561 |
|
|
|
562 |
If you develop a new program, and you want it to be of the greatest
|
|
|
563 |
possible use to the public, the best way to achieve this is to make it free
|
|
|
564 |
software which everyone can redistribute and change under these terms.
|
|
|
565 |
|
|
|
566 |
To do so, attach the following notices to the program. It is safest to
|
|
|
567 |
attach them to the start of each source file to most effectively state the
|
|
|
568 |
exclusion of warranty; and each file should have at least the “copyright”
|
|
|
569 |
line and a pointer to where the full notice is found.
|
|
|
570 |
|
|
|
571 |
<one line to give the program's name and a brief idea of what it does.>
|
|
|

If the program does terminal interaction, make it output a short notice
|
|
|
590 |
like this when it starts in an interactive mode:
|
|
|
591 |
|
|
|
592 |
<program> Copyright (C) <year> <name of author> This program comes
|
|
|
593 |
with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY; for details type `show w'. This is free
|
|
|
594 |
software, and you are welcome to redistribute it under certain conditions;
|
|
|
595 |
type `show c' for details.
|
|
|
596 |
|
|
|
597 |
The hypothetical commands `show w' and `show c' should show the appropriate
|
|
|
598 |
parts of the General Public License. Of course, your program's commands
|
|
|
599 |
might be different; for a GUI interface, you would use an “about box”.

You should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer) or school,
|
|
|
602 |
if any, to sign a “copyright disclaimer” for the program, if necessary. For

The GNU General Public License does not permit incorporating your program
|
|
|
607 |
into proprietary programs. If your program is a subroutine library, you may
|
|
|
608 |
consider it more useful to permit linking proprietary applications with the
|
|
|
609 |
library. If this is what you want to do, use the GNU Lesser General Public
|
|
|
610 |
License instead of this License. But first, please read
