- GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE |
|

- Version 2, June 1991 |
|

- Copyright (C) 1989, 1991 Free Software Foundation, Inc., |
|
5 |
- 51 Franklin Street, Fifth Floor, Boston, MA 02110-1301 USA |
|
6 |
- Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies |
|
7 |
- of this license document, but changing it is not allowed. |
|
8 |
- |
|
9 |
- Preamble |
|
10 |
- |
|
11 |
- The licenses for most software are designed to take away your |
|
12 |
-freedom to share and change it. By contrast, the GNU General Public |
|
13 |
-License is intended to guarantee your freedom to share and change free |
|
14 |
-software--to make sure the software is free for all its users. This |
|
15 |
-General Public License applies to most of the Free Software |
|
16 |
-Foundation's software and to any other program whose authors commit to |
|
17 |
-using it. (Some other Free Software Foundation software is covered by |
|
18 |
-the GNU Lesser General Public License instead.) You can apply it to |
|
19 |
-your programs, too. |
|
20 |
- |
|
21 |
- When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not |
|
22 |
-price. Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that you |
|
23 |
-have the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge for |
|
24 |
-this service if you wish), that you receive source code or can get it |
|
25 |
-if you want it, that you can change the software or use pieces of it |
|
26 |
-in new free programs; and that you know you can do these things. |
|
27 |
- |
|
28 |
- To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that forbid |
|
29 |
-anyone to deny you these rights or to ask you to surrender the rights. |
|
30 |
-These restrictions translate to certain responsibilities for you if you |
|
31 |
-distribute copies of the software, or if you modify it. |
|
32 |
- |
|
33 |
- For example, if you distribute copies of such a program, whether |
|
34 |
-gratis or for a fee, you must give the recipients all the rights that |
|
35 |
-you have. You must make sure that they, too, receive or can get the |
|
36 |
-source code. And you must show them these terms so they know their |
|
37 |
-rights. |
|
38 |
- |
|
39 |
- We protect your rights with two steps: (1) copyright the software, and |
|
40 |
-(2) offer you this license which gives you legal permission to copy, |
|
41 |
-distribute and/or modify the software. |
|
42 |
- |
|
43 |
- Also, for each author's protection and ours, we want to make certain |
|
44 |
-that everyone understands that there is no warranty for this free |
|
45 |
-software. If the software is modified by someone else and passed on, we |
|
46 |
-want its recipients to know that what they have is not the original, so |
|
47 |
-that any problems introduced by others will not reflect on the original |
|
48 |
-authors' reputations. |
|
49 |
- |
|
50 |
- Finally, any free program is threatened constantly by software |
|
51 |
-patents. We wish to avoid the danger that redistributors of a free |
|
52 |
-program will individually obtain patent licenses, in effect making the |
|
53 |
-program proprietary. To prevent this, we have made it clear that any |
|
54 |
-patent must be licensed for everyone's free use or not licensed at all. |
|
55 |
- |
|
56 |
- The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and |
|
57 |
-modification follow. |
|
58 |
- |
|
59 |
- GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE |
|
60 |
- TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION |
|
61 |
- |
|
62 |
- 0. This License applies to any program or other work which contains |
|
63 |
-a notice placed by the copyright holder saying it may be distributed |
|
64 |
-under the terms of this General Public License. The "Program", below, |
|
65 |
-refers to any such program or work, and a "work based on the Program" |
|
66 |
-means either the Program or any derivative work under copyright law: |
|
67 |
-that is to say, a work containing the Program or a portion of it, |
|
68 |
-either verbatim or with modifications and/or translated into another |
|
69 |
-language. (Hereinafter, translation is included without limitation in |
|
70 |
-the term "modification".) Each licensee is addressed as "you". |
|
71 |
- |
|
72 |
-Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are not |
|
73 |
-covered by this License; they are outside its scope. The act of |
|
74 |
-running the Program is not restricted, and the output from the Program |
|
75 |
-is covered only if its contents constitute a work based on the |
|
76 |
-Program (independent of having been made by running the Program). |
|
77 |
-Whether that is true depends on what the Program does. |
|
78 |
- |
|
79 |
- 1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Program's |
|
80 |
-source code as you receive it, in any medium, provided that you |
|
81 |
-conspicuously and appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate |
|
82 |
-copyright notice and disclaimer of warranty; keep intact all the |
|
83 |
-notices that refer to this License and to the absence of any warranty; |
|
84 |
-and give any other recipients of the Program a copy of this License |
|
85 |
-along with the Program. |
|
86 |
- |
|
87 |
-You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy, and |
|
88 |
-you may at your option offer warranty protection in exchange for a fee. |
|
89 |
- |
|
90 |
- 2. You may modify your copy or copies of the Program or any portion |
|
91 |
-of it, thus forming a work based on the Program, and copy and |
|
92 |
-distribute such modifications or work under the terms of Section 1 |
|
93 |
-above, provided that you also meet all of these conditions: |
|
94 |
- |
|
95 |
- a) You must cause the modified files to carry prominent notices |
|
96 |
- stating that you changed the files and the date of any change. |
|
97 |
- |
|
98 |
- b) You must cause any work that you distribute or publish, that in |
|
99 |
- whole or in part contains or is derived from the Program or any |
|
100 |
- part thereof, to be licensed as a whole at no charge to all third |
|
101 |
- parties under the terms of this License. |
|
102 |
- |
|
103 |
- c) If the modified program normally reads commands interactively |
|
104 |
- when run, you must cause it, when started running for such |
|
105 |
- interactive use in the most ordinary way, to print or display an |
|
106 |
- announcement including an appropriate copyright notice and a |
|
107 |
- notice that there is no warranty (or else, saying that you provide |
|
108 |
- a warranty) and that users may redistribute the program under |
|
109 |
- these conditions, and telling the user how to view a copy of this |
|
110 |
- License. (Exception: if the Program itself is interactive but |
|
111 |
- does not normally print such an announcement, your work based on |
|
112 |
- the Program is not required to print an announcement.) |
|
113 |
- |
|
114 |
-These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole. If |
|
115 |
-identifiable sections of that work are not derived from the Program, |
|
116 |
-and can be reasonably considered independent and separate works in |
|
117 |
-themselves, then this License, and its terms, do not apply to those |
|
118 |
-sections when you distribute them as separate works. But when you |
|
119 |
-distribute the same sections as part of a whole which is a work based |
|
120 |
-on the Program, the distribution of the whole must be on the terms of |
|
121 |
-this License, whose permissions for other licensees extend to the |
|
122 |
-entire whole, and thus to each and every part regardless of who wrote it. |
|
123 |
- |
|
124 |
-Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest |
|
125 |
-your rights to work written entirely by you; rather, the intent is to |
|
126 |
-exercise the right to control the distribution of derivative or |
|
127 |
-collective works based on the Program. |
|
128 |
- |
|
129 |
-In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the Program |
|
130 |
-with the Program (or with a work based on the Program) on a volume of |
|
131 |
-a storage or distribution medium does not bring the other work under |
|
132 |
-the scope of this License. |
|
133 |
- |
|
134 |
- 3. You may copy and distribute the Program (or a work based on it, |
|
135 |
-under Section 2) in object code or executable form under the terms of |
|
136 |
-Sections 1 and 2 above provided that you also do one of the following: |
|
137 |
- |
|
138 |
- a) Accompany it with the complete corresponding machine-readable |
|
139 |
- source code, which must be distributed under the terms of Sections |
|
140 |
- 1 and 2 above on a medium customarily used for software interchange; or, |
|
141 |
- |
|
142 |
- b) Accompany it with a written offer, valid for at least three |
|
143 |
- years, to give any third party, for a charge no more than your |
|
144 |
- cost of physically performing source distribution, a complete |
|
145 |
- machine-readable copy of the corresponding source code, to be |
|
146 |
- distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium |
|
147 |
- customarily used for software interchange; or, |
|
148 |
- |
|
149 |
- c) Accompany it with the information you received as to the offer |
|
150 |
- to distribute corresponding source code. (This alternative is |
|
151 |
- allowed only for noncommercial distribution and only if you |
|
152 |
- received the program in object code or executable form with such |
|
153 |
- an offer, in accord with Subsection b above.) |
|
154 |
- |
|
155 |
-The source code for a work means the preferred form of the work for |
|
156 |
-making modifications to it. For an executable work, complete source |
|
157 |
-code means all the source code for all modules it contains, plus any |
|
158 |
-associated interface definition files, plus the scripts used to |
|
159 |
-control compilation and installation of the executable. However, as a |
|
160 |
-special exception, the source code distributed need not include |
|
161 |
-anything that is normally distributed (in either source or binary |
|
162 |
-form) with the major components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of the |
|
163 |
-operating system on which the executable runs, unless that component |
|
164 |
-itself accompanies the executable. |
|
165 |
- |
|
166 |
-If distribution of executable or object code is made by offering |
|
167 |
-access to copy from a designated place, then offering equivalent |
|
168 |
-access to copy the source code from the same place counts as |
|
169 |
-distribution of the source code, even though third parties are not |
|
170 |
-compelled to copy the source along with the object code. |
|
171 |
- |
|
172 |
- 4. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the Program |
|
173 |
-except as expressly provided under this License. Any attempt |
|
174 |
-otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense or distribute the Program is |
|
175 |
-void, and will automatically terminate your rights under this License. |
|
176 |
-However, parties who have received copies, or rights, from you under |
|
177 |
-this License will not have their licenses terminated so long as such |
|
178 |
-parties remain in full compliance. |
|
179 |
- |
|
180 |
- 5. You are not required to accept this License, since you have not |
|
181 |
-signed it. However, nothing else grants you permission to modify or |
|
182 |
-distribute the Program or its derivative works. These actions are |
|
183 |
-prohibited by law if you do not accept this License. Therefore, by |
|
184 |
-modifying or distributing the Program (or any work based on the |
|
185 |
-Program), you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so, and |
|
186 |
-all its terms and conditions for copying, distributing or modifying |
|
187 |
-the Program or works based on it. |
|
188 |
- |
|
189 |
- 6. Each time you redistribute the Program (or any work based on the |
|
190 |
-Program), the recipient automatically receives a license from the |
|
191 |
-original licensor to copy, distribute or modify the Program subject to |
|
192 |
-these terms and conditions. You may not impose any further |
|
193 |
-restrictions on the recipients' exercise of the rights granted herein. |
|
194 |
-You are not responsible for enforcing compliance by third parties to |
|
195 |
-this License. |
|
196 |
- |
|
197 |
- 7. If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent |
|
198 |
-infringement or for any other reason (not limited to patent issues), |
|
199 |
-conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or |
|
200 |
-otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not |
|
201 |
-excuse you from the conditions of this License. If you cannot |
|
202 |
-distribute so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this |
|
203 |
-License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you |
|
204 |
-may not distribute the Program at all. For example, if a patent |
|
205 |
-license would not permit royalty-free redistribution of the Program by |
|
206 |
-all those who receive copies directly or indirectly through you, then |
|
207 |
-the only way you could satisfy both it and this License would be to |
|
208 |
-refrain entirely from distribution of the Program. |
|
209 |
- |
|
210 |
-If any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable under |
|
211 |
-any particular circumstance, the balance of the section is intended to |
|
212 |
-apply and the section as a whole is intended to apply in other |
|
213 |
-circumstances. |
|
214 |
- |
|
215 |
-It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe any |
|
216 |
-patents or other property right claims or to contest validity of any |
|
217 |
-such claims; this section has the sole purpose of protecting the |
|
218 |
-integrity of the free software distribution system, which is |
|
219 |
-implemented by public license practices. Many people have made |
|
220 |
-generous contributions to the wide range of software distributed |
|
221 |
-through that system in reliance on consistent application of that |
|
222 |
-system; it is up to the author/donor to decide if he or she is willing |
|
223 |
-to distribute software through any other system and a licensee cannot |
|
224 |
-impose that choice. |
|
225 |
- |
|
226 |
-This section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is believed to |
|
227 |
-be a consequence of the rest of this License. |
|
228 |
- |
|
229 |
- 8. If the distribution and/or use of the Program is restricted in |
|
230 |
-certain countries either by patents or by copyrighted interfaces, the |
|
231 |
-original copyright holder who places the Program under this License |
|
232 |
-may add an explicit geographical distribution limitation excluding |
|
233 |
-those countries, so that distribution is permitted only in or among |
|
234 |
-countries not thus excluded. In such case, this License incorporates |
|
235 |
-the limitation as if written in the body of this License. |
|
236 |
- |
|
237 |
- 9. The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions |
|
238 |
-of the General Public License from time to time. Such new versions will |
|
239 |
-be similar in spirit to the present version, but may differ in detail to |
|
240 |
-address new problems or concerns. |
|
241 |
- |
|
242 |
-Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the Program |
|
243 |
-specifies a version number of this License which applies to it and "any |
|
244 |
-later version", you have the option of following the terms and conditions |
|
245 |
-either of that version or of any later version published by the Free |
|
246 |
-Software Foundation. If the Program does not specify a version number of |
|
247 |
-this License, you may choose any version ever published by the Free Software |
|
248 |
-Foundation. |
|
249 |
- |
|
250 |
- 10. If you wish to incorporate parts of the Program into other free |
|
251 |
-programs whose distribution conditions are different, write to the author |
|
252 |
-to ask for permission. For software which is copyrighted by the Free |
|
253 |
-Software Foundation, write to the Free Software Foundation; we sometimes |
|
254 |
-make exceptions for this. Our decision will be guided by the two goals |
|
255 |
-of preserving the free status of all derivatives of our free software and |
|
256 |
-of promoting the sharing and reuse of software generally. |
|
257 |
- |
|
258 |
- NO WARRANTY |
|
259 |
- |
|
260 |
- 11. BECAUSE THE PROGRAM IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE, THERE IS NO WARRANTY |
|
261 |
-FOR THE PROGRAM, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW. EXCEPT WHEN |
|
262 |
-OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER PARTIES |
|
263 |
-PROVIDE THE PROGRAM "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED |
|
264 |
-OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF |
|
265 |
-MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. THE ENTIRE RISK AS |
|
266 |
-TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE PROGRAM IS WITH YOU. SHOULD THE |
|
267 |
-PROGRAM PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE COST OF ALL NECESSARY SERVICING, |
|
268 |
-REPAIR OR CORRECTION. |
|
269 |
- |
|
270 |
- 12. IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN WRITING |
|
271 |
-WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MAY MODIFY AND/OR |
|
272 |
-REDISTRIBUTE THE PROGRAM AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES, |
|
273 |
-INCLUDING ANY GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING |
|
274 |
-OUT OF THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED |
|
275 |
-TO LOSS OF DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY |
|
276 |
-YOU OR THIRD PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF THE PROGRAM TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER |
|
277 |
-PROGRAMS), EVEN IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE |
|
278 |
-POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. |
|
279 |
- |
|
280 |
- END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS |
|
281 |
- |
|
282 |
- How to Apply These Terms to Your New Programs |
|
283 |
- |
|
284 |
- If you develop a new program, and you want it to be of the greatest |
|
285 |
-possible use to the public, the best way to achieve this is to make it |
|
286 |
-free software which everyone can redistribute and change under these terms. |
|
287 |
- |
|
288 |
- To do so, attach the following notices to the program. It is safest |
|
289 |
-to attach them to the start of each source file to most effectively |
|
290 |
-convey the exclusion of warranty; and each file should have at least |
|
291 |
-the "copyright" line and a pointer to where the full notice is found. |
|
292 |
- |
|
293 |
- <one line to give the program's name and a brief idea of what it does.> |
|
294 |
- Copyright (C) <year> <name of author> |
|
295 |
- |
|
296 |
- This program is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify |
|
297 |
- it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by |
|
298 |
- the Free Software Foundation; either version 2 of the License, or |
|
299 |
- (at your option) any later version. |
|
300 |
- |
|
301 |
- This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful, |
|
302 |
- but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of |
|
303 |
- MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. See the |
|
304 |
- GNU General Public License for more details. |
|
305 |
- |
|
306 |
- You should have received a copy of the GNU General Public License along |
|
307 |
- with this program; if not, write to the Free Software Foundation, Inc., |
|
308 |
- 51 Franklin Street, Fifth Floor, Boston, MA 02110-1301 USA. |
|
309 |
- |
|
310 |
-Also add information on how to contact you by electronic and paper mail. |
|
311 |
- |
|
312 |
-If the program is interactive, make it output a short notice like this |
|
313 |
-when it starts in an interactive mode: |
|
314 |
- |
|
315 |
- Gnomovision version 69, Copyright (C) year name of author |
|
316 |
- Gnomovision comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY; for details type `show w'. |
|
317 |
- This is free software, and you are welcome to redistribute it |
|
318 |
- under certain conditions; type `show c' for details. |
|
319 |
- |
|
320 |
-The hypothetical commands `show w' and `show c' should show the appropriate |
|
321 |
-parts of the General Public License. Of course, the commands you use may |
|
322 |
-be called something other than `show w' and `show c'; they could even be |
|
323 |
-mouse-clicks or menu items--whatever suits your program. |
|
324 |
- |
|
325 |
-You should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer) or your |
|
326 |
-school, if any, to sign a "copyright disclaimer" for the program, if |
|
327 |
-necessary. Here is a sample; alter the names: |
|

335 |
-This General Public License does not permit incorporating your program into |
|
336 |

+ Version 2, June 1991 |
|
2 |

|

+ Copyright (C) 1989, 1991 Free Software Foundation, Inc., |
|
4 |
+ 51 Franklin Street, Fifth Floor, Boston, MA 02110-1301 USA |
|
5 |
+ Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies |
|
6 |
+ of this license document, but changing it is not allowed. |
|
7 |
+ |
|
8 |
+ Preamble |
|
9 |
+ |
|
10 |
+ The licenses for most software are designed to take away your |
|
11 |
+freedom to share and change it. By contrast, the GNU General Public |
|
12 |
+License is intended to guarantee your freedom to share and change free |
|
13 |
+software--to make sure the software is free for all its users. This |
|
14 |
+General Public License applies to most of the Free Software |
|
15 |
+Foundation's software and to any other program whose authors commit to |
|
16 |
+using it. (Some other Free Software Foundation software is covered by |
|
17 |
+the GNU Lesser General Public License instead.) You can apply it to |
|
18 |
+your programs, too. |
|
19 |
+ |
|
20 |
+ When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not |
|
21 |
+price. Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that you |
|
22 |
+have the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge for |
|
23 |
+this service if you wish), that you receive source code or can get it |
|
24 |
+if you want it, that you can change the software or use pieces of it |
|
25 |
+in new free programs; and that you know you can do these things. |
|
26 |
+ |
|
27 |
+ To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that forbid |
|
28 |
+anyone to deny you these rights or to ask you to surrender the rights. |
|
29 |
+These restrictions translate to certain responsibilities for you if you |
|
30 |
+distribute copies of the software, or if you modify it. |
|
31 |
+ |
|
32 |
+ For example, if you distribute copies of such a program, whether |
|
33 |
+gratis or for a fee, you must give the recipients all the rights that |
|
34 |
+you have. You must make sure that they, too, receive or can get the |
|
35 |
+source code. And you must show them these terms so they know their |
|
36 |
+rights. |
|
37 |
+ |
|
38 |
+ We protect your rights with two steps: (1) copyright the software, and |
|
39 |
+(2) offer you this license which gives you legal permission to copy, |
|
40 |
+distribute and/or modify the software. |
|
41 |
+ |
|
42 |
+ Also, for each author's protection and ours, we want to make certain |
|
43 |
+that everyone understands that there is no warranty for this free |
|
44 |
+software. If the software is modified by someone else and passed on, we |
|
45 |
+want its recipients to know that what they have is not the original, so |
|
46 |
+that any problems introduced by others will not reflect on the original |
|
47 |
+authors' reputations. |
|
48 |
+ |
|
49 |
+ Finally, any free program is threatened constantly by software |
|
50 |
+patents. We wish to avoid the danger that redistributors of a free |
|
51 |
+program will individually obtain patent licenses, in effect making the |
|
52 |
+program proprietary. To prevent this, we have made it clear that any |
|
53 |
+patent must be licensed for everyone's free use or not licensed at all. |
|
54 |
+ |
|
55 |
+ The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and |
|
56 |
+modification follow. |
|
57 |
+ |
|
58 |
+ GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE |
|
59 |
+ TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION |
|
60 |
+ |
|
61 |
+ 0. This License applies to any program or other work which contains |
|
62 |
+a notice placed by the copyright holder saying it may be distributed |
|
63 |
+under the terms of this General Public License. The "Program", below, |
|
64 |
+refers to any such program or work, and a "work based on the Program" |
|
65 |
+means either the Program or any derivative work under copyright law: |
|
66 |
+that is to say, a work containing the Program or a portion of it, |
|
67 |
+either verbatim or with modifications and/or translated into another |
|
68 |
+language. (Hereinafter, translation is included without limitation in |
|
69 |
+the term "modification".) Each licensee is addressed as "you". |
|
70 |
+ |
|
71 |
+Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are not |
|
72 |
+covered by this License; they are outside its scope. The act of |
|
73 |
+running the Program is not restricted, and the output from the Program |
|
74 |
+is covered only if its contents constitute a work based on the |
|
75 |
+Program (independent of having been made by running the Program). |
|
76 |
+Whether that is true depends on what the Program does. |
|
77 |
+ |
|
78 |
+ 1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Program's |
|
79 |
+source code as you receive it, in any medium, provided that you |
|
80 |
+conspicuously and appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate |
|
81 |
+copyright notice and disclaimer of warranty; keep intact all the |
|
82 |
+notices that refer to this License and to the absence of any warranty; |
|
83 |
+and give any other recipients of the Program a copy of this License |
|
84 |
+along with the Program. |
|
85 |
+ |
|
86 |
+You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy, and |
|
87 |
+you may at your option offer warranty protection in exchange for a fee. |
|
88 |
+ |
|
89 |
+ 2. You may modify your copy or copies of the Program or any portion |
|
90 |
+of it, thus forming a work based on the Program, and copy and |
|
91 |
+distribute such modifications or work under the terms of Section 1 |
|
92 |
+above, provided that you also meet all of these conditions: |
|
93 |
+ |
|
94 |
+ a) You must cause the modified files to carry prominent notices |
|
95 |
+ stating that you changed the files and the date of any change. |
|
96 |
+ |
|
97 |
+ b) You must cause any work that you distribute or publish, that in |
|
98 |
+ whole or in part contains or is derived from the Program or any |
|
99 |
+ part thereof, to be licensed as a whole at no charge to all third |
|
100 |
+ parties under the terms of this License. |
|
101 |
+ |
|
102 |
+ c) If the modified program normally reads commands interactively |
|
103 |
+ when run, you must cause it, when started running for such |
|
104 |
+ interactive use in the most ordinary way, to print or display an |
|
105 |
+ announcement including an appropriate copyright notice and a |
|
106 |
+ notice that there is no warranty (or else, saying that you provide |
|
107 |
+ a warranty) and that users may redistribute the program under |
|
108 |
+ these conditions, and telling the user how to view a copy of this |
|
109 |
+ License. (Exception: if the Program itself is interactive but |
|
110 |
+ does not normally print such an announcement, your work based on |
|
111 |
+ the Program is not required to print an announcement.) |
|
112 |
+ |
|
113 |
+These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole. If |
|
114 |
+identifiable sections of that work are not derived from the Program, |
|
115 |
+and can be reasonably considered independent and separate works in |
|
116 |
+themselves, then this License, and its terms, do not apply to those |
|
117 |
+sections when you distribute them as separate works. But when you |
|
118 |
+distribute the same sections as part of a whole which is a work based |
|
119 |
+on the Program, the distribution of the whole must be on the terms of |
|
120 |
+this License, whose permissions for other licensees extend to the |
|
121 |
+entire whole, and thus to each and every part regardless of who wrote it. |
|
122 |
+ |
|
123 |
+Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest |
|
124 |
+your rights to work written entirely by you; rather, the intent is to |
|
125 |
+exercise the right to control the distribution of derivative or |
|
126 |
+collective works based on the Program. |
|
127 |
+ |
|
128 |
+In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the Program |
|
129 |
+with the Program (or with a work based on the Program) on a volume of |
|
130 |
+a storage or distribution medium does not bring the other work under |
|
131 |
+the scope of this License. |
|
132 |
+ |
|
133 |
+ 3. You may copy and distribute the Program (or a work based on it, |
|
134 |
+under Section 2) in object code or executable form under the terms of |
|
135 |
+Sections 1 and 2 above provided that you also do one of the following: |
|
136 |
+ |
|
137 |
+ a) Accompany it with the complete corresponding machine-readable |
|
138 |
+ source code, which must be distributed under the terms of Sections |
|
139 |
+ 1 and 2 above on a medium customarily used for software interchange; or, |
|
140 |
+ |
|
141 |
+ b) Accompany it with a written offer, valid for at least three |
|
142 |
+ years, to give any third party, for a charge no more than your |
|
143 |
+ cost of physically performing source distribution, a complete |
|
144 |
+ machine-readable copy of the corresponding source code, to be |
|
145 |
+ distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium |
|
146 |
+ customarily used for software interchange; or, |
|
147 |
+ |
|
148 |
+ c) Accompany it with the information you received as to the offer |
|
149 |
+ to distribute corresponding source code. (This alternative is |
|
150 |
+ allowed only for noncommercial distribution and only if you |
|
151 |
+ received the program in object code or executable form with such |
|
152 |
+ an offer, in accord with Subsection b above.) |
|
153 |
+ |
|
154 |
+The source code for a work means the preferred form of the work for |
|
155 |
+making modifications to it. For an executable work, complete source |
|
156 |
+code means all the source code for all modules it contains, plus any |
|
157 |
+associated interface definition files, plus the scripts used to |
|
158 |
+control compilation and installation of the executable. However, as a |
|
159 |
+special exception, the source code distributed need not include |
|
160 |
+anything that is normally distributed (in either source or binary |
|
161 |
+form) with the major components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of the |
|
162 |
+operating system on which the executable runs, unless that component |
|
163 |
+itself accompanies the executable. |
|
164 |
+ |
|
165 |
+If distribution of executable or object code is made by offering |
|
166 |
+access to copy from a designated place, then offering equivalent |
|
167 |
+access to copy the source code from the same place counts as |
|
168 |
+distribution of the source code, even though third parties are not |
|
169 |
+compelled to copy the source along with the object code. |
|
170 |
+ |
|
171 |
+ 4. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the Program |
|
172 |
+except as expressly provided under this License. Any attempt |
|
173 |
+otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense or distribute the Program is |
|
174 |
+void, and will automatically terminate your rights under this License. |
|
175 |
+However, parties who have received copies, or rights, from you under |
|
176 |
+this License will not have their licenses terminated so long as such |
|
177 |
+parties remain in full compliance. |
|
178 |
+ |
|
179 |
+ 5. You are not required to accept this License, since you have not |
|
180 |
+signed it. However, nothing else grants you permission to modify or |
|
181 |
+distribute the Program or its derivative works. These actions are |
|
182 |
+prohibited by law if you do not accept this License. Therefore, by |
|
183 |
+modifying or distributing the Program (or any work based on the |
|
184 |
+Program), you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so, and |
|
185 |
+all its terms and conditions for copying, distributing or modifying |
|
186 |
+the Program or works based on it. |
|
187 |
+ |
|
188 |
+ 6. Each time you redistribute the Program (or any work based on the |
|
189 |
+Program), the recipient automatically receives a license from the |
|
190 |
+original licensor to copy, distribute or modify the Program subject to |
|
191 |
+these terms and conditions. You may not impose any further |
|
192 |
+restrictions on the recipients' exercise of the rights granted herein. |
|
193 |
+You are not responsible for enforcing compliance by third parties to |
|
194 |
+this License. |
|
195 |
+ |
|
196 |
+ 7. If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent |
|
197 |
+infringement or for any other reason (not limited to patent issues), |
|
198 |
+conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or |
|
199 |
+otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not |
|
200 |
+excuse you from the conditions of this License. If you cannot |
|
201 |
+distribute so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this |
|
202 |
+License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you |
|
203 |
+may not distribute the Program at all. For example, if a patent |
|
204 |
+license would not permit royalty-free redistribution of the Program by |
|
205 |
+all those who receive copies directly or indirectly through you, then |
|
206 |
+the only way you could satisfy both it and this License would be to |
|
207 |
+refrain entirely from distribution of the Program. |
|
208 |
+ |
|
209 |
+If any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable under |
|
210 |
+any particular circumstance, the balance of the section is intended to |
|
211 |
+apply and the section as a whole is intended to apply in other |
|
212 |
+circumstances. |
|
213 |
+ |
|
214 |
+It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe any |
|
215 |
+patents or other property right claims or to contest validity of any |
|
216 |
+such claims; this section has the sole purpose of protecting the |
|
217 |
+integrity of the free software distribution system, which is |
|
218 |
+implemented by public license practices. Many people have made |
|
219 |
+generous contributions to the wide range of software distributed |
|
220 |
+through that system in reliance on consistent application of that |
|
221 |
+system; it is up to the author/donor to decide if he or she is willing |
|
222 |
+to distribute software through any other system and a licensee cannot |
|
223 |
+impose that choice. |
|
224 |
+ |
|
225 |
+This section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is believed to |
|
226 |
+be a consequence of the rest of this License. |
|
227 |
+ |
|
228 |
+ 8. If the distribution and/or use of the Program is restricted in |
|
229 |
+certain countries either by patents or by copyrighted interfaces, the |
|
230 |
+original copyright holder who places the Program under this License |
|
231 |
+may add an explicit geographical distribution limitation excluding |
|
232 |
+those countries, so that distribution is permitted only in or among |
|
233 |
+countries not thus excluded. In such case, this License incorporates |
|
234 |
+the limitation as if written in the body of this License. |
|
235 |
+ |
|
236 |
+ 9. The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions |
|
237 |
+of the General Public License from time to time. Such new versions will |
|
238 |
+be similar in spirit to the present version, but may differ in detail to |
|
239 |
+address new problems or concerns. |
|
240 |
+ |
|
241 |
+Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the Program |
|
242 |
+specifies a version number of this License which applies to it and "any |
|
243 |
+later version", you have the option of following the terms and conditions |
|
244 |
+either of that version or of any later version published by the Free |
|
245 |
+Software Foundation. If the Program does not specify a version number of |
|
246 |
+this License, you may choose any version ever published by the Free Software |
|
247 |
+Foundation. |
|
248 |
+ |
|
249 |
+ 10. If you wish to incorporate parts of the Program into other free |
|
250 |
+programs whose distribution conditions are different, write to the author |
|
251 |
+to ask for permission. For software which is copyrighted by the Free |
|
252 |
+Software Foundation, write to the Free Software Foundation; we sometimes |
|
253 |
+make exceptions for this. Our decision will be guided by the two goals |
|
254 |
+of preserving the free status of all derivatives of our free software and |
|
255 |
+of promoting the sharing and reuse of software generally. |
|
256 |
+ |
|
257 |
+ NO WARRANTY |
|
258 |
+ |
|
259 |
+ 11. BECAUSE THE PROGRAM IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE, THERE IS NO WARRANTY |
|
260 |
+FOR THE PROGRAM, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW. EXCEPT WHEN |
|
261 |
+OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER PARTIES |
|
262 |
+PROVIDE THE PROGRAM "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED |
|
263 |
+OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF |
|
264 |
+MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. THE ENTIRE RISK AS |
|
265 |
+TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE PROGRAM IS WITH YOU. SHOULD THE |
|
266 |
+PROGRAM PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE COST OF ALL NECESSARY SERVICING, |
|
267 |
+REPAIR OR CORRECTION. |
|
268 |
+ |
|
269 |
+ 12. IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN WRITING |
|
270 |
+WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MAY MODIFY AND/OR |
|
271 |
+REDISTRIBUTE THE PROGRAM AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES, |
|
272 |
+INCLUDING ANY GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING |
|
273 |
+OUT OF THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED |
|
274 |
+TO LOSS OF DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY |
|
275 |
+YOU OR THIRD PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF THE PROGRAM TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER |
|
276 |
+PROGRAMS), EVEN IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE |
|
277 |
+POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. |
|
278 |
+ |
|
279 |
+ END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS |
|
280 |
+ |
|
281 |
+ How to Apply These Terms to Your New Programs |
|
282 |
+ |
|
283 |
+ If you develop a new program, and you want it to be of the greatest |
|
284 |
+possible use to the public, the best way to achieve this is to make it |
|
285 |
+free software which everyone can redistribute and change under these terms. |
|
286 |
+ |
|
287 |
+ To do so, attach the following notices to the program. It is safest |
|
288 |
+to attach them to the start of each source file to most effectively |
|
289 |
+convey the exclusion of warranty; and each file should have at least |
|
290 |
+the "copyright" line and a pointer to where the full notice is found. |
|
291 |
+ |
|
292 |
+ <one line to give the program's name and a brief idea of what it does.> |
|
293 |
+ Copyright (C) <year> <name of author> |

295 |
+ This program is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify |
|

+ |
|
300 |
+ This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful, |
|
301 |
+ but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of |
|
302 |
+ MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. See the |
|
303 |
+ GNU General Public License for more details. |
|
304 |
+ |
|
305 |
+ You should have received a copy of the GNU General Public License along |
|
306 |
+ with this program; if not, write to the Free Software Foundation, Inc., |
|
307 |
+ 51 Franklin Street, Fifth Floor, Boston, MA 02110-1301 USA. |
|
308 |
+ |
|
309 |
+Also add information on how to contact you by electronic and paper mail. |
|
310 |
+ |
|
311 |
+If the program is interactive, make it output a short notice like this |
|
312 |
+when it starts in an interactive mode: |
|
313 |
+ |
|
314 |

315 |
+ Gnomovision comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY; for details type `show w'. |

|
317 |
+ under certain conditions; type `show c' for details. |
|
318 |
+ |
|
319 |
+The hypothetical commands `show w' and `show c' should show the appropriate |
|
320 |
+parts of the General Public License. Of course, the commands you use may |
|
321 |
+be called something other than `show w' and `show c'; they could even be |
|
322 |
+mouse-clicks or menu items--whatever suits your program. |
|
323 |
+ |
|
324 |
+You should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer) or your |
|
325 |
+school, if any, to sign a "copyright disclaimer" for the program, if |
|
326 |
+necessary. Here is a sample; alter the names: |

+This General Public License does not permit incorporating your program into |

335 |

|
336 |
+consider it more useful to permit linking proprietary applications with the |

- Copyright (C) 1991, 1999 Free Software Foundation, Inc. |
|

- 51 Franklin Street, Fifth Floor, Boston, MA 02110-1301 USA |
|
6 |
- Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies |
|
7 |
- of this license document, but changing it is not allowed. |
|
8 |
- |
|
9 |
-[This is the first released version of the Lesser GPL. It also counts |
|
10 |
- as the successor of the GNU Library Public License, version 2, hence |
|
11 |
- the version number 2.1.] |
|
12 |
- |
|
13 |
- Preamble |
|
14 |
- |
|
15 |
- The licenses for most software are designed to take away your |
|
16 |
-freedom to share and change it. By contrast, the GNU General Public |
|
17 |
-Licenses are intended to guarantee your freedom to share and change |
|
18 |
-free software--to make sure the software is free for all its users. |
|
19 |
- |
|
20 |
- This license, the Lesser General Public License, applies to some |
|
21 |
-specially designated software packages--typically libraries--of the |
|
22 |
-Free Software Foundation and other authors who decide to use it. You |
|
23 |
-can use it too, but we suggest you first think carefully about whether |
|
24 |
-this license or the ordinary General Public License is the better |
|
25 |
-strategy to use in any particular case, based on the explanations below. |
|
26 |
- |
|
27 |
- When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom of use, |
|
28 |
-not price. Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that |
|
29 |
-you have the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge |
|
30 |
-for this service if you wish); that you receive source code or can get |
|
31 |
-it if you want it; that you can change the software and use pieces of |
|
32 |
-it in new free programs; and that you are informed that you can do |
|
33 |
-these things. |
|
34 |
- |
|
35 |
- To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that forbid |
|
36 |
-distributors to deny you these rights or to ask you to surrender these |
|
37 |
-rights. These restrictions translate to certain responsibilities for |
|
38 |
-you if you distribute copies of the library or if you modify it. |
|
39 |
- |
|
40 |
- For example, if you distribute copies of the library, whether gratis |
|
41 |
-or for a fee, you must give the recipients all the rights that we gave |
|
42 |
-you. You must make sure that they, too, receive or can get the source |
|
43 |
-code. If you link other code with the library, you must provide |
|
44 |
-complete object files to the recipients, so that they can relink them |
|
45 |
-with the library after making changes to the library and recompiling |
|
46 |
-it. And you must show them these terms so they know their rights. |
|
47 |
- |
|
48 |
- We protect your rights with a two-step method: (1) we copyright the |
|
49 |
-library, and (2) we offer you this license, which gives you legal |
|
50 |
-permission to copy, distribute and/or modify the library. |
|
51 |
- |
|
52 |
- To protect each distributor, we want to make it very clear that |
|
53 |
-there is no warranty for the free library. Also, if the library is |
|
54 |
-modified by someone else and passed on, the recipients should know |
|
55 |
-that what they have is not the original version, so that the original |
|
56 |
-author's reputation will not be affected by problems that might be |
|
57 |
-introduced by others. |
|
58 |
- |
|
59 |
- Finally, software patents pose a constant threat to the existence of |
|
60 |
-any free program. We wish to make sure that a company cannot |
|
61 |
-effectively restrict the users of a free program by obtaining a |
|
62 |
-restrictive license from a patent holder. Therefore, we insist that |
|
63 |
-any patent license obtained for a version of the library must be |
|
64 |
-consistent with the full freedom of use specified in this license. |
|
65 |
- |
|
66 |
- Most GNU software, including some libraries, is covered by the |
|
67 |
-ordinary GNU General Public License. This license, the GNU Lesser |
|
68 |
-General Public License, applies to certain designated libraries, and |
|
69 |
-is quite different from the ordinary General Public License. We use |
|
70 |
-this license for certain libraries in order to permit linking those |
|
71 |
-libraries into non-free programs. |
|
72 |
- |
|
73 |
- When a program is linked with a library, whether statically or using |
|
74 |
-a shared library, the combination of the two is legally speaking a |
|
75 |
-combined work, a derivative of the original library. The ordinary |
|
76 |
-General Public License therefore permits such linking only if the |
|
77 |
-entire combination fits its criteria of freedom. The Lesser General |
|
78 |
-Public License permits more lax criteria for linking other code with |
|
79 |
-the library. |
|
80 |
- |
|
81 |
- We call this license the "Lesser" General Public License because it |
|
82 |
-does Less to protect the user's freedom than the ordinary General |
|
83 |
-Public License. It also provides other free software developers Less |
|
84 |
-of an advantage over competing non-free programs. These disadvantages |
|
85 |
-are the reason we use the ordinary General Public License for many |
|
86 |
-libraries. However, the Lesser license provides advantages in certain |
|
87 |
-special circumstances. |
|
88 |
- |
|
89 |
- For example, on rare occasions, there may be a special need to |
|
90 |
-encourage the widest possible use of a certain library, so that it becomes |
|
91 |
-a de-facto standard. To achieve this, non-free programs must be |
|
92 |
-allowed to use the library. A more frequent case is that a free |
|
93 |
-library does the same job as widely used non-free libraries. In this |
|
94 |
-case, there is little to gain by limiting the free library to free |
|
95 |
-software only, so we use the Lesser General Public License. |
|
96 |
- |
|
97 |
- In other cases, permission to use a particular library in non-free |
|
98 |
-programs enables a greater number of people to use a large body of |
|
99 |
-free software. For example, permission to use the GNU C Library in |
|
100 |
-non-free programs enables many more people to use the whole GNU |
|
101 |
-operating system, as well as its variant, the GNU/Linux operating |
|
102 |
-system. |
|
103 |
- |
|
104 |
- Although the Lesser General Public License is Less protective of the |
|
105 |
-users' freedom, it does ensure that the user of a program that is |
|
106 |
-linked with the Library has the freedom and the wherewithal to run |
|
107 |
-that program using a modified version of the Library. |
|
108 |
- |
|
109 |
- The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and |
|
110 |
-modification follow. Pay close attention to the difference between a |
|
111 |
-"work based on the library" and a "work that uses the library". The |
|
112 |
-former contains code derived from the library, whereas the latter must |
|
113 |
-be combined with the library in order to run. |
|
114 |
- |
|
115 |
- GNU LESSER GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE |
|
116 |
- TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION |
|
117 |
- |
|
118 |
- 0. This License Agreement applies to any software library or other |
|
119 |
-program which contains a notice placed by the copyright holder or |
|
120 |
-other authorized party saying it may be distributed under the terms of |
|
121 |
-this Lesser General Public License (also called "this License"). |
|
122 |
-Each licensee is addressed as "you". |
|
123 |
- |
|
124 |
- A "library" means a collection of software functions and/or data |
|
125 |
-prepared so as to be conveniently linked with application programs |
|
126 |
-(which use some of those functions and data) to form executables. |
|
127 |
- |
|
128 |
- The "Library", below, refers to any such software library or work |
|
129 |
-which has been distributed under these terms. A "work based on the |
|
130 |
-Library" means either the Library or any derivative work under |
|
131 |
-copyright law: that is to say, a work containing the Library or a |
|
132 |
-portion of it, either verbatim or with modifications and/or translated |
|
133 |
-straightforwardly into another language. (Hereinafter, translation is |
|
134 |
-included without limitation in the term "modification".) |
|
135 |
- |
|
136 |
- "Source code" for a work means the preferred form of the work for |
|
137 |
-making modifications to it. For a library, complete source code means |
|
138 |
-all the source code for all modules it contains, plus any associated |
|
139 |
-interface definition files, plus the scripts used to control compilation |
|
140 |
-and installation of the library. |
|
141 |
- |
|
142 |
- Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are not |
|
143 |
-covered by this License; they are outside its scope. The act of |
|
144 |
-running a program using the Library is not restricted, and output from |
|
145 |
-such a program is covered only if its contents constitute a work based |
|
146 |
-on the Library (independent of the use of the Library in a tool for |
|
147 |
-writing it). Whether that is true depends on what the Library does |
|
148 |
-and what the program that uses the Library does. |
|
149 |
- |
|
150 |
- 1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Library's |
|
151 |
-complete source code as you receive it, in any medium, provided that |
|
152 |
-you conspicuously and appropriately publish on each copy an |
|
153 |
-appropriate copyright notice and disclaimer of warranty; keep intact |
|
154 |
-all the notices that refer to this License and to the absence of any |
|
155 |
-warranty; and distribute a copy of this License along with the |
|
156 |
-Library. |
|
157 |
- |
|
158 |
- You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy, |
|
159 |
-and you may at your option offer warranty protection in exchange for a |
|
160 |
-fee. |
|
161 |
- |
|
162 |
- 2. You may modify your copy or copies of the Library or any portion |
|
163 |
-of it, thus forming a work based on the Library, and copy and |
|
164 |
-distribute such modifications or work under the terms of Section 1 |
|
165 |
-above, provided that you also meet all of these conditions: |
|
166 |
- |
|
167 |
- a) The modified work must itself be a software library. |
|
168 |
- |
|
169 |
- b) You must cause the files modified to carry prominent notices |
|
170 |
- stating that you changed the files and the date of any change. |
|
171 |
- |
|
172 |
- c) You must cause the whole of the work to be licensed at no |
|
173 |
- charge to all third parties under the terms of this License. |
|
174 |
- |
|
175 |
- d) If a facility in the modified Library refers to a function or a |
|
176 |
- table of data to be supplied by an application program that uses |
|
177 |
- the facility, other than as an argument passed when the facility |
|
178 |
- is invoked, then you must make a good faith effort to ensure that, |
|
179 |
- in the event an application does not supply such function or |
|
180 |
- table, the facility still operates, and performs whatever part of |
|
181 |
- its purpose remains meaningful. |
|
182 |
- |
|
183 |
- (For example, a function in a library to compute square roots has |
|
184 |
- a purpose that is entirely well-defined independent of the |
|
185 |
- application. Therefore, Subsection 2d requires that any |
|
186 |
- application-supplied function or table used by this function must |
|
187 |
- be optional: if the application does not supply it, the square |
|
188 |
- root function must still compute square roots.) |
|
189 |
- |
|
190 |
-These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole. If |
|
191 |
-identifiable sections of that work are not derived from the Library, |
|
192 |
-and can be reasonably considered independent and separate works in |
|
193 |
-themselves, then this License, and its terms, do not apply to those |
|
194 |
-sections when you distribute them as separate works. But when you |
|
195 |
-distribute the same sections as part of a whole which is a work based |
|
196 |
-on the Library, the distribution of the whole must be on the terms of |
|
197 |
-this License, whose permissions for other licensees extend to the |
|
198 |
-entire whole, and thus to each and every part regardless of who wrote |
|
199 |
-it. |
|
200 |
- |
|
201 |
-Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest |
|
202 |
-your rights to work written entirely by you; rather, the intent is to |
|
203 |
-exercise the right to control the distribution of derivative or |
|
204 |
-collective works based on the Library. |
|
205 |
- |
|
206 |
-In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the Library |
|
207 |
-with the Library (or with a work based on the Library) on a volume of |
|
208 |
-a storage or distribution medium does not bring the other work under |
|
209 |
-the scope of this License. |
|
210 |
- |
|
211 |
- 3. You may opt to apply the terms of the ordinary GNU General Public |
|
212 |
-License instead of this License to a given copy of the Library. To do |
|
213 |
-this, you must alter all the notices that refer to this License, so |
|
214 |
-that they refer to the ordinary GNU General Public License, version 2, |
|
215 |
-instead of to this License. (If a newer version than version 2 of the |
|
216 |
-ordinary GNU General Public License has appeared, then you can specify |
|
217 |
-that version instead if you wish.) Do not make any other change in |
|
218 |
-these notices. |
|
219 |
- |
|
220 |
- Once this change is made in a given copy, it is irreversible for |
|
221 |
-that copy, so the ordinary GNU General Public License applies to all |
|
222 |
-subsequent copies and derivative works made from that copy. |
|
223 |
- |
|
224 |
- This option is useful when you wish to copy part of the code of |
|
225 |
-the Library into a program that is not a library. |
|
226 |
- |
|
227 |
- 4. You may copy and distribute the Library (or a portion or |
|
228 |
-derivative of it, under Section 2) in object code or executable form |
|
229 |
-under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above provided that you accompany |
|
230 |
-it with the complete corresponding machine-readable source code, which |
|
231 |
-must be distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a |
|
232 |
-medium customarily used for software interchange. |
|
233 |
- |
|
234 |
- If distribution of object code is made by offering access to copy |
|
235 |
-from a designated place, then offering equivalent access to copy the |
|
236 |
-source code from the same place satisfies the requirement to |
|
237 |
-distribute the source code, even though third parties are not |
|
238 |
-compelled to copy the source along with the object code. |
|
239 |
- |
|
240 |
- 5. A program that contains no derivative of any portion of the |
|
241 |
-Library, but is designed to work with the Library by being compiled or |
|
242 |
-linked with it, is called a "work that uses the Library". Such a |
|
243 |
-work, in isolation, is not a derivative work of the Library, and |
|
244 |
-therefore falls outside the scope of this License. |
|
245 |
- |
|
246 |
- However, linking a "work that uses the Library" with the Library |
|
247 |
-creates an executable that is a derivative of the Library (because it |
|
248 |
-contains portions of the Library), rather than a "work that uses the |
|
249 |
-library". The executable is therefore covered by this License. |
|
250 |
-Section 6 states terms for distribution of such executables. |
|
251 |
- |
|
252 |
- When a "work that uses the Library" uses material from a header file |
|
253 |
-that is part of the Library, the object code for the work may be a |
|
254 |
-derivative work of the Library even though the source code is not. |
|
255 |
-Whether this is true is especially significant if the work can be |
|
256 |
-linked without the Library, or if the work is itself a library. The |
|
257 |
-threshold for this to be true is not precisely defined by law. |
|
258 |
- |
|
259 |
- If such an object file uses only numerical parameters, data |
|
260 |
-structure layouts and accessors, and small macros and small inline |
|
261 |
-functions (ten lines or less in length), then the use of the object |
|
262 |
-file is unrestricted, regardless of whether it is legally a derivative |
|
263 |
-work. (Executables containing this object code plus portions of the |
|
264 |
-Library will still fall under Section 6.) |
|
265 |
- |
|
266 |
- Otherwise, if the work is a derivative of the Library, you may |
|
267 |
-distribute the object code for the work under the terms of Section 6. |
|
268 |
-Any executables containing that work also fall under Section 6, |
|
269 |
-whether or not they are linked directly with the Library itself. |
|
270 |
- |
|
271 |
- 6. As an exception to the Sections above, you may also combine or |
|
272 |
-link a "work that uses the Library" with the Library to produce a |
|
273 |
-work containing portions of the Library, and distribute that work |
|
274 |
-under terms of your choice, provided that the terms permit |
|
275 |
-modification of the work for the customer's own use and reverse |
|
276 |
-engineering for debugging such modifications. |
|
277 |
- |
|
278 |
- You must give prominent notice with each copy of the work that the |
|
279 |
-Library is used in it and that the Library and its use are covered by |
|
280 |
-this License. You must supply a copy of this License. If the work |
|
281 |
-during execution displays copyright notices, you must include the |
|
282 |
-copyright notice for the Library among them, as well as a reference |
|
283 |
-directing the user to the copy of this License. Also, you must do one |
|
284 |
-of these things: |
|
285 |
- |
|
286 |
- a) Accompany the work with the complete corresponding |
|
287 |
- machine-readable source code for the Library including whatever |
|
288 |
- changes were used in the work (which must be distributed under |
|
289 |
- Sections 1 and 2 above); and, if the work is an executable linked |
|
290 |
- with the Library, with the complete machine-readable "work that |
|
291 |
- uses the Library", as object code and/or source code, so that the |
|
292 |
- user can modify the Library and then relink to produce a modified |
|
293 |
- executable containing the modified Library. (It is understood |
|
294 |
- that the user who changes the contents of definitions files in the |
|
295 |
- Library will not necessarily be able to recompile the application |
|
296 |
- to use the modified definitions.) |
|
297 |
- |
|
298 |
- b) Use a suitable shared library mechanism for linking with the |
|
299 |
- Library. A suitable mechanism is one that (1) uses at run time a |
|
300 |
- copy of the library already present on the user's computer system, |
|
301 |
- rather than copying library functions into the executable, and (2) |
|
302 |
- will operate properly with a modified version of the library, if |
|
303 |
- the user installs one, as long as the modified version is |
|
304 |
- interface-compatible with the version that the work was made with. |
|
305 |
- |
|
306 |
- c) Accompany the work with a written offer, valid for at |
|
307 |
- least three years, to give the same user the materials |
|
308 |
- specified in Subsection 6a, above, for a charge no more |
|
309 |
- than the cost of performing this distribution. |
|
310 |
- |
|
311 |
- d) If distribution of the work is made by offering access to copy |
|
312 |
- from a designated place, offer equivalent access to copy the above |
|
313 |
- specified materials from the same place. |
|
314 |
- |
|
315 |
- e) Verify that the user has already received a copy of these |
|
316 |
- materials or that you have already sent this user a copy. |
|
317 |
- |
|
318 |
- For an executable, the required form of the "work that uses the |
|
319 |
-Library" must include any data and utility programs needed for |
|
320 |
-reproducing the executable from it. However, as a special exception, |
|
321 |
-the materials to be distributed need not include anything that is |
|
322 |
-normally distributed (in either source or binary form) with the major |
|
323 |
-components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of the operating system on |
|
324 |
-which the executable runs, unless that component itself accompanies |
|
325 |
-the executable. |
|
326 |
- |
|
327 |
- It may happen that this requirement contradicts the license |
|
328 |
-restrictions of other proprietary libraries that do not normally |
|
329 |
-accompany the operating system. Such a contradiction means you cannot |
|
330 |
-use both them and the Library together in an executable that you |
|
331 |
-distribute. |
|
332 |
- |
|
333 |
- 7. You may place library facilities that are a work based on the |
|
334 |
-Library side-by-side in a single library together with other library |
|
335 |
-facilities not covered by this License, and distribute such a combined |
|
336 |
-library, provided that the separate distribution of the work based on |
|
337 |
-the Library and of the other library facilities is otherwise |
|
338 |
-permitted, and provided that you do these two things: |
|
339 |
- |
|
340 |
- a) Accompany the combined library with a copy of the same work |
|
341 |
- based on the Library, uncombined with any other library |
|
342 |
- facilities. This must be distributed under the terms of the |
|
343 |
- Sections above. |
|
344 |
- |
|
345 |
- b) Give prominent notice with the combined library of the fact |
|
346 |
- that part of it is a work based on the Library, and explaining |
|
347 |
- where to find the accompanying uncombined form of the same work. |
|
348 |
- |
|
349 |
- 8. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, link with, or distribute |
|
350 |
-the Library except as expressly provided under this License. Any |
|
351 |
-attempt otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense, link with, or |
|
352 |
-distribute the Library is void, and will automatically terminate your |
|
353 |
-rights under this License. However, parties who have received copies, |
|
354 |
-or rights, from you under this License will not have their licenses |
|
355 |
-terminated so long as such parties remain in full compliance. |
|
356 |
- |
|
357 |
- 9. You are not required to accept this License, since you have not |
|
358 |
-signed it. However, nothing else grants you permission to modify or |
|
359 |
-distribute the Library or its derivative works. These actions are |
|
360 |
-prohibited by law if you do not accept this License. Therefore, by |
|
361 |
-modifying or distributing the Library (or any work based on the |
|
362 |
-Library), you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so, and |
|
363 |
-all its terms and conditions for copying, distributing or modifying |
|
364 |
-the Library or works based on it. |
|
365 |
- |
|
366 |
- 10. Each time you redistribute the Library (or any work based on the |
|
367 |
-Library), the recipient automatically receives a license from the |
|
368 |
-original licensor to copy, distribute, link with or modify the Library |
|
369 |
-subject to these terms and conditions. You may not impose any further |
|
370 |
-restrictions on the recipients' exercise of the rights granted herein. |
|
371 |
-You are not responsible for enforcing compliance by third parties with |
|
372 |
-this License. |
|
373 |
- |
|
374 |
- 11. If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent |
|
375 |
-infringement or for any other reason (not limited to patent issues), |
|
376 |
-conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or |
|
377 |
-otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not |
|
378 |
-excuse you from the conditions of this License. If you cannot |
|
379 |
-distribute so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this |
|
380 |
-License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you |
|
381 |
-may not distribute the Library at all. For example, if a patent |
|
382 |
-license would not permit royalty-free redistribution of the Library by |
|
383 |
-all those who receive copies directly or indirectly through you, then |
|
384 |
-the only way you could satisfy both it and this License would be to |
|
385 |
-refrain entirely from distribution of the Library. |
|
386 |
- |
|
387 |
-If any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable under any |
|
388 |
-particular circumstance, the balance of the section is intended to apply, |
|
389 |
-and the section as a whole is intended to apply in other circumstances. |
|
390 |
- |
|
391 |
-It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe any |
|
392 |
-patents or other property right claims or to contest validity of any |
|
393 |
-such claims; this section has the sole purpose of protecting the |
|
394 |
-integrity of the free software distribution system which is |
|
395 |
-implemented by public license practices. Many people have made |
|
396 |
-generous contributions to the wide range of software distributed |
|
397 |
-through that system in reliance on consistent application of that |
|
398 |
-system; it is up to the author/donor to decide if he or she is willing |
|
399 |
-to distribute software through any other system and a licensee cannot |
|
400 |
-impose that choice. |
|
401 |
- |
|
402 |
-This section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is believed to |
|
403 |
-be a consequence of the rest of this License. |
|
404 |
- |
|
405 |
- 12. If the distribution and/or use of the Library is restricted in |
|
406 |
-certain countries either by patents or by copyrighted interfaces, the |
|
407 |
-original copyright holder who places the Library under this License may add |
|
408 |
-an explicit geographical distribution limitation excluding those countries, |
|
409 |
-so that distribution is permitted only in or among countries not thus |
|
410 |
-excluded. In such case, this License incorporates the limitation as if |
|
411 |
-written in the body of this License. |
|
412 |
- |
|
413 |
- 13. The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new |
|
414 |
-versions of the Lesser General Public License from time to time. |
|
415 |
-Such new versions will be similar in spirit to the present version, |
|
416 |
-but may differ in detail to address new problems or concerns. |
|
417 |
- |
|
418 |
-Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the Library |
|
419 |
-specifies a version number of this License which applies to it and |
|
420 |
-"any later version", you have the option of following the terms and |
|
421 |
-conditions either of that version or of any later version published by |
|
422 |
-the Free Software Foundation. If the Library does not specify a |
|
423 |
-license version number, you may choose any version ever published by |
|
424 |
-the Free Software Foundation. |
|
425 |
- |
|
426 |
- 14. If you wish to incorporate parts of the Library into other free |
|
427 |
-programs whose distribution conditions are incompatible with these, |
|
428 |
-write to the author to ask for permission. For software which is |
|
429 |
-copyrighted by the Free Software Foundation, write to the Free |
|
430 |
-Software Foundation; we sometimes make exceptions for this. Our |
|
431 |
-decision will be guided by the two goals of preserving the free status |
|
432 |
-of all derivatives of our free software and of promoting the sharing |
|
433 |
-and reuse of software generally. |
|
434 |
- |
|
435 |
- NO WARRANTY |
|
436 |
- |
|
437 |
- 15. BECAUSE THE LIBRARY IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE, THERE IS NO |
|
438 |
-WARRANTY FOR THE LIBRARY, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW. |
|
439 |
-EXCEPT WHEN OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS AND/OR |
|
440 |
-OTHER PARTIES PROVIDE THE LIBRARY "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY |
|
441 |
-KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE |
|
442 |
-IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR |
|
443 |
-PURPOSE. THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE |
|
444 |
-LIBRARY IS WITH YOU. SHOULD THE LIBRARY PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME |
|
445 |
-THE COST OF ALL NECESSARY SERVICING, REPAIR OR CORRECTION. |
|
446 |
- |
|
447 |
- 16. IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN |
|
448 |
-WRITING WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MAY MODIFY |
|
449 |
-AND/OR REDISTRIBUTE THE LIBRARY AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU |
|
450 |
-FOR DAMAGES, INCLUDING ANY GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR |
|
451 |
-CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE |
|
452 |
-LIBRARY (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF DATA OR DATA BEING |
|
453 |
-RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY YOU OR THIRD PARTIES OR A |
|
454 |
-FAILURE OF THE LIBRARY TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER SOFTWARE), EVEN IF |
|

|
460 |
- How to Apply These Terms to Your New Libraries |
|
461 |
- |
|
462 |
- If you develop a new library, and you want it to be of the greatest |
|
463 |
-possible use to the public, we recommend making it free software that |
|
464 |
-everyone can redistribute and change. You can do so by permitting |
|
465 |
-redistribution under these terms (or, alternatively, under the terms of the |
|
466 |
-ordinary General Public License). |
|
467 |
- |
|
468 |
- To apply these terms, attach the following notices to the library. It is |
|
469 |
-safest to attach them to the start of each source file to most effectively |
|
470 |
-convey the exclusion of warranty; and each file should have at least the |
|
471 |
-"copyright" line and a pointer to where the full notice is found. |
|
472 |
- |
|
473 |
- <one line to give the library's name and a brief idea of what it does.> |

+ Version 2.1, February 1999 |
|
2 |
+ |
|
3 |
+ Copyright (C) 1991, 1999 Free Software Foundation, Inc. |
|
4 |
+ 51 Franklin Street, Fifth Floor, Boston, MA 02110-1301 USA |
|
5 |
+ Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies |
|
6 |
+ of this license document, but changing it is not allowed. |
|
7 |
+ |
|
8 |
+[This is the first released version of the Lesser GPL. It also counts |
|
9 |
+ as the successor of the GNU Library Public License, version 2, hence |
|
10 |
+ the version number 2.1.] |
|
11 |
+ |
|
12 |
+ Preamble |
|
13 |
+ |
|
14 |
+ The licenses for most software are designed to take away your |
|
15 |
+freedom to share and change it. By contrast, the GNU General Public |
|
16 |
+Licenses are intended to guarantee your freedom to share and change |
|
17 |
+free software--to make sure the software is free for all its users. |
|
18 |
+ |
|
19 |
+ This license, the Lesser General Public License, applies to some |
|
20 |
+specially designated software packages--typically libraries--of the |
|
21 |
+Free Software Foundation and other authors who decide to use it. You |
|
22 |
+can use it too, but we suggest you first think carefully about whether |
|
23 |
+this license or the ordinary General Public License is the better |
|
24 |
+strategy to use in any particular case, based on the explanations below. |
|
25 |
+ |
|
26 |
+ When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom of use, |
|
27 |
+not price. Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that |
|
28 |
+you have the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge |
|
29 |
+for this service if you wish); that you receive source code or can get |
|
30 |
+it if you want it; that you can change the software and use pieces of |
|
31 |
+it in new free programs; and that you are informed that you can do |
|
32 |
+these things. |
|
33 |
+ |
|
34 |
+ To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that forbid |
|
35 |
+distributors to deny you these rights or to ask you to surrender these |
|
36 |
+rights. These restrictions translate to certain responsibilities for |
|
37 |
+you if you distribute copies of the library or if you modify it. |
|
38 |
+ |
|
39 |
+ For example, if you distribute copies of the library, whether gratis |
|
40 |
+or for a fee, you must give the recipients all the rights that we gave |
|
41 |
+you. You must make sure that they, too, receive or can get the source |
|
42 |
+code. If you link other code with the library, you must provide |
|
43 |
+complete object files to the recipients, so that they can relink them |
|
44 |
+with the library after making changes to the library and recompiling |
|
45 |
+it. And you must show them these terms so they know their rights. |
|
46 |
+ |
|
47 |
+ We protect your rights with a two-step method: (1) we copyright the |
|
48 |
+library, and (2) we offer you this license, which gives you legal |
|
49 |
+permission to copy, distribute and/or modify the library. |
|
50 |
+ |
|
51 |
+ To protect each distributor, we want to make it very clear that |
|
52 |
+there is no warranty for the free library. Also, if the library is |
|
53 |
+modified by someone else and passed on, the recipients should know |
|
54 |
+that what they have is not the original version, so that the original |
|
55 |
+author's reputation will not be affected by problems that might be |
|
56 |
+introduced by others. |
|
57 |
+ |
|
58 |
+ Finally, software patents pose a constant threat to the existence of |
|
59 |
+any free program. We wish to make sure that a company cannot |
|
60 |
+effectively restrict the users of a free program by obtaining a |
|
61 |
+restrictive license from a patent holder. Therefore, we insist that |
|
62 |
+any patent license obtained for a version of the library must be |
|
63 |
+consistent with the full freedom of use specified in this license. |
|
64 |
+ |
|
65 |
+ Most GNU software, including some libraries, is covered by the |
|
66 |
+ordinary GNU General Public License. This license, the GNU Lesser |
|
67 |
+General Public License, applies to certain designated libraries, and |
|
68 |
+is quite different from the ordinary General Public License. We use |
|
69 |
+this license for certain libraries in order to permit linking those |
|
70 |
+libraries into non-free programs. |
|
71 |
+ |
|
72 |
+ When a program is linked with a library, whether statically or using |
|
73 |
+a shared library, the combination of the two is legally speaking a |
|
74 |
+combined work, a derivative of the original library. The ordinary |
|
75 |
+General Public License therefore permits such linking only if the |
|
76 |
+entire combination fits its criteria of freedom. The Lesser General |
|
77 |
+Public License permits more lax criteria for linking other code with |
|
78 |
+the library. |
|
79 |
+ |
|
80 |
+ We call this license the "Lesser" General Public License because it |
|
81 |
+does Less to protect the user's freedom than the ordinary General |
|
82 |
+Public License. It also provides other free software developers Less |
|
83 |
+of an advantage over competing non-free programs. These disadvantages |
|
84 |
+are the reason we use the ordinary General Public License for many |
|
85 |
+libraries. However, the Lesser license provides advantages in certain |
|
86 |
+special circumstances. |
|
87 |
+ |
|
88 |
+ For example, on rare occasions, there may be a special need to |
|
89 |
+encourage the widest possible use of a certain library, so that it becomes |
|
90 |
+a de-facto standard. To achieve this, non-free programs must be |
|
91 |
+allowed to use the library. A more frequent case is that a free |
|
92 |
+library does the same job as widely used non-free libraries. In this |
|
93 |
+case, there is little to gain by limiting the free library to free |
|
94 |
+software only, so we use the Lesser General Public License. |
|
95 |
+ |
|
96 |
+ In other cases, permission to use a particular library in non-free |
|
97 |
+programs enables a greater number of people to use a large body of |
|
98 |
+free software. For example, permission to use the GNU C Library in |
|
99 |
+non-free programs enables many more people to use the whole GNU |
|
100 |
+operating system, as well as its variant, the GNU/Linux operating |
|
101 |
+system. |
|
102 |
+ |
|
103 |
+ Although the Lesser General Public License is Less protective of the |
|
104 |
+users' freedom, it does ensure that the user of a program that is |
|
105 |
+linked with the Library has the freedom and the wherewithal to run |
|
106 |
+that program using a modified version of the Library. |
|
107 |
+ |
|
108 |
+ The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and |
|
109 |
+modification follow. Pay close attention to the difference between a |
|
110 |
+"work based on the library" and a "work that uses the library". The |
|
111 |
+former contains code derived from the library, whereas the latter must |
|
112 |
+be combined with the library in order to run. |
|
113 |
+ |
|
114 |
+ GNU LESSER GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE |
|
115 |
+ TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION |
|
116 |
+ |
|
117 |
+ 0. This License Agreement applies to any software library or other |
|
118 |
+program which contains a notice placed by the copyright holder or |
|
119 |
+other authorized party saying it may be distributed under the terms of |
|
120 |
+this Lesser General Public License (also called "this License"). |
|
121 |
+Each licensee is addressed as "you". |
|
122 |
+ |
|
123 |
+ A "library" means a collection of software functions and/or data |
|
124 |
+prepared so as to be conveniently linked with application programs |
|
125 |
+(which use some of those functions and data) to form executables. |
|
126 |
+ |
|
127 |
+ The "Library", below, refers to any such software library or work |
|
128 |
+which has been distributed under these terms. A "work based on the |
|
129 |
+Library" means either the Library or any derivative work under |
|
130 |
+copyright law: that is to say, a work containing the Library or a |
|
131 |
+portion of it, either verbatim or with modifications and/or translated |
|
132 |
+straightforwardly into another language. (Hereinafter, translation is |
|
133 |
+included without limitation in the term "modification".) |
|
134 |
+ |
|
135 |
+ "Source code" for a work means the preferred form of the work for |
|
136 |
+making modifications to it. For a library, complete source code means |
|
137 |
+all the source code for all modules it contains, plus any associated |
|
138 |
+interface definition files, plus the scripts used to control compilation |
|
139 |
+and installation of the library. |
|
140 |
+ |
|
141 |
+ Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are not |
|
142 |
+covered by this License; they are outside its scope. The act of |
|
143 |
+running a program using the Library is not restricted, and output from |
|
144 |
+such a program is covered only if its contents constitute a work based |
|
145 |
+on the Library (independent of the use of the Library in a tool for |
|
146 |
+writing it). Whether that is true depends on what the Library does |
|
147 |
+and what the program that uses the Library does. |
|
148 |
+ |
|
149 |
+ 1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Library's |
|
150 |
+complete source code as you receive it, in any medium, provided that |
|
151 |
+you conspicuously and appropriately publish on each copy an |
|
152 |
+appropriate copyright notice and disclaimer of warranty; keep intact |
|
153 |
+all the notices that refer to this License and to the absence of any |
|
154 |
+warranty; and distribute a copy of this License along with the |
|
155 |
+Library. |
|
156 |
+ |
|
157 |
+ You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy, |
|
158 |
+and you may at your option offer warranty protection in exchange for a |
|
159 |
+fee. |
|
160 |
+ |
|
161 |
+ 2. You may modify your copy or copies of the Library or any portion |
|
162 |
+of it, thus forming a work based on the Library, and copy and |
|
163 |
+distribute such modifications or work under the terms of Section 1 |
|
164 |
+above, provided that you also meet all of these conditions: |
|
165 |
+ |
|
166 |
+ a) The modified work must itself be a software library. |
|
167 |
+ |
|
168 |
+ b) You must cause the files modified to carry prominent notices |
|
169 |
+ stating that you changed the files and the date of any change. |
|
170 |
+ |
|
171 |
+ c) You must cause the whole of the work to be licensed at no |
|
172 |
+ charge to all third parties under the terms of this License. |
|
173 |
+ |
|
174 |
+ d) If a facility in the modified Library refers to a function or a |
|
175 |
+ table of data to be supplied by an application program that uses |
|
176 |
+ the facility, other than as an argument passed when the facility |
|
177 |
+ is invoked, then you must make a good faith effort to ensure that, |
|
178 |
+ in the event an application does not supply such function or |
|
179 |
+ table, the facility still operates, and performs whatever part of |
|
180 |
+ its purpose remains meaningful. |
|
181 |
+ |
|
182 |
+ (For example, a function in a library to compute square roots has |
|
183 |
+ a purpose that is entirely well-defined independent of the |
|
184 |
+ application. Therefore, Subsection 2d requires that any |
|
185 |
+ application-supplied function or table used by this function must |
|
186 |
+ be optional: if the application does not supply it, the square |
|
187 |
+ root function must still compute square roots.) |
|
188 |
+ |
|
189 |
+These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole. If |
|
190 |
+identifiable sections of that work are not derived from the Library, |
|
191 |
+and can be reasonably considered independent and separate works in |
|
192 |
+themselves, then this License, and its terms, do not apply to those |
|
193 |
+sections when you distribute them as separate works. But when you |
|
194 |
+distribute the same sections as part of a whole which is a work based |
|
195 |
+on the Library, the distribution of the whole must be on the terms of |
|
196 |
+this License, whose permissions for other licensees extend to the |
|
197 |
+entire whole, and thus to each and every part regardless of who wrote |
|
198 |
+it. |
|
199 |
+ |
|
200 |
+Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest |
|
201 |
+your rights to work written entirely by you; rather, the intent is to |
|
202 |
+exercise the right to control the distribution of derivative or |
|
203 |
+collective works based on the Library. |
|
204 |
+ |
|
205 |
+In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the Library |
|
206 |
+with the Library (or with a work based on the Library) on a volume of |
|
207 |
+a storage or distribution medium does not bring the other work under |
|
208 |
+the scope of this License. |
|
209 |
+ |
|
210 |
+ 3. You may opt to apply the terms of the ordinary GNU General Public |
|
211 |
+License instead of this License to a given copy of the Library. To do |
|
212 |
+this, you must alter all the notices that refer to this License, so |
|
213 |
+that they refer to the ordinary GNU General Public License, version 2, |
|
214 |
+instead of to this License. (If a newer version than version 2 of the |
|
215 |
+ordinary GNU General Public License has appeared, then you can specify |
|
216 |
+that version instead if you wish.) Do not make any other change in |
|
217 |
+these notices. |
|
218 |
+ |
|
219 |
+ Once this change is made in a given copy, it is irreversible for |
|
220 |
+that copy, so the ordinary GNU General Public License applies to all |
|
221 |
+subsequent copies and derivative works made from that copy. |
|
222 |
+ |
|
223 |
+ This option is useful when you wish to copy part of the code of |
|
224 |
+the Library into a program that is not a library. |
|
225 |
+ |
|
226 |
+ 4. You may copy and distribute the Library (or a portion or |
|
227 |
+derivative of it, under Section 2) in object code or executable form |
|
228 |
+under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above provided that you accompany |
|
229 |
+it with the complete corresponding machine-readable source code, which |
|
230 |
+must be distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a |
|
231 |
+medium customarily used for software interchange. |
|
232 |
+ |
|
233 |
+ If distribution of object code is made by offering access to copy |
|
234 |
+from a designated place, then offering equivalent access to copy the |
|
235 |
+source code from the same place satisfies the requirement to |
|
236 |
+distribute the source code, even though third parties are not |
|
237 |
+compelled to copy the source along with the object code. |
|
238 |
+ |
|
239 |
+ 5. A program that contains no derivative of any portion of the |
|
240 |
+Library, but is designed to work with the Library by being compiled or |
|
241 |
+linked with it, is called a "work that uses the Library". Such a |
|
242 |
+work, in isolation, is not a derivative work of the Library, and |
|
243 |
+therefore falls outside the scope of this License. |
|
244 |
+ |
|
245 |
+ However, linking a "work that uses the Library" with the Library |
|
246 |
+creates an executable that is a derivative of the Library (because it |
|
247 |
+contains portions of the Library), rather than a "work that uses the |
|
248 |
+library". The executable is therefore covered by this License. |
|
249 |
+Section 6 states terms for distribution of such executables. |
|
250 |
+ |
|
251 |
+ When a "work that uses the Library" uses material from a header file |
|
252 |
+that is part of the Library, the object code for the work may be a |
|
253 |
+derivative work of the Library even though the source code is not. |
|
254 |
+Whether this is true is especially significant if the work can be |
|
255 |
+linked without the Library, or if the work is itself a library. The |
|
256 |
+threshold for this to be true is not precisely defined by law. |
|
257 |
+ |
|
258 |
+ If such an object file uses only numerical parameters, data |
|
259 |
+structure layouts and accessors, and small macros and small inline |
|
260 |
+functions (ten lines or less in length), then the use of the object |
|
261 |
+file is unrestricted, regardless of whether it is legally a derivative |
|
262 |
+work. (Executables containing this object code plus portions of the |
|
263 |
+Library will still fall under Section 6.) |
|
264 |
+ |
|
265 |
+ Otherwise, if the work is a derivative of the Library, you may |
|
266 |
+distribute the object code for the work under the terms of Section 6. |
|
267 |
+Any executables containing that work also fall under Section 6, |
|
268 |
+whether or not they are linked directly with the Library itself. |
|
269 |
+ |
|
270 |
+ 6. As an exception to the Sections above, you may also combine or |
|
271 |
+link a "work that uses the Library" with the Library to produce a |
|
272 |
+work containing portions of the Library, and distribute that work |
|
273 |
+under terms of your choice, provided that the terms permit |
|
274 |
+modification of the work for the customer's own use and reverse |
|
275 |
+engineering for debugging such modifications. |
|
276 |
+ |
|
277 |
+ You must give prominent notice with each copy of the work that the |
|
278 |
+Library is used in it and that the Library and its use are covered by |
|
279 |
+this License. You must supply a copy of this License. If the work |
|
280 |
+during execution displays copyright notices, you must include the |
|
281 |
+copyright notice for the Library among them, as well as a reference |
|
282 |
+directing the user to the copy of this License. Also, you must do one |
|
283 |
+of these things: |
|
284 |
+ |
|
285 |
+ a) Accompany the work with the complete corresponding |
|
286 |
+ machine-readable source code for the Library including whatever |
|
287 |
+ changes were used in the work (which must be distributed under |
|
288 |
+ Sections 1 and 2 above); and, if the work is an executable linked |
|
289 |
+ with the Library, with the complete machine-readable "work that |
|
290 |
+ uses the Library", as object code and/or source code, so that the |
|
291 |
+ user can modify the Library and then relink to produce a modified |
|
292 |
+ executable containing the modified Library. (It is understood |
|
293 |
+ that the user who changes the contents of definitions files in the |
|
294 |
+ Library will not necessarily be able to recompile the application |
|
295 |
+ to use the modified definitions.) |
|
296 |
+ |
|
297 |
+ b) Use a suitable shared library mechanism for linking with the |
|
298 |
+ Library. A suitable mechanism is one that (1) uses at run time a |
|
299 |
+ copy of the library already present on the user's computer system, |
|
300 |
+ rather than copying library functions into the executable, and (2) |
|
301 |
+ will operate properly with a modified version of the library, if |
|
302 |
+ the user installs one, as long as the modified version is |
|
303 |
+ interface-compatible with the version that the work was made with. |
|
304 |
+ |
|
305 |
+ c) Accompany the work with a written offer, valid for at |
|
306 |
+ least three years, to give the same user the materials |
|
307 |
+ specified in Subsection 6a, above, for a charge no more |
|
308 |
+ than the cost of performing this distribution. |
|
309 |
+ |
|
310 |
+ d) If distribution of the work is made by offering access to copy |
|
311 |
+ from a designated place, offer equivalent access to copy the above |
|
312 |
+ specified materials from the same place. |
|
313 |
+ |
|
314 |
+ e) Verify that the user has already received a copy of these |
|
315 |
+ materials or that you have already sent this user a copy. |
|
316 |
+ |
|
317 |
+ For an executable, the required form of the "work that uses the |
|
318 |
+Library" must include any data and utility programs needed for |
|
319 |
+reproducing the executable from it. However, as a special exception, |
|
320 |
+the materials to be distributed need not include anything that is |
|
321 |
+normally distributed (in either source or binary form) with the major |
|
322 |
+components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of the operating system on |
|
323 |
+which the executable runs, unless that component itself accompanies |
|
324 |
+the executable. |
|
325 |
+ |
|
326 |
+ It may happen that this requirement contradicts the license |
|
327 |
+restrictions of other proprietary libraries that do not normally |
|
328 |
+accompany the operating system. Such a contradiction means you cannot |
|
329 |
+use both them and the Library together in an executable that you |
|
330 |
+distribute. |
|
331 |
+ |
|
332 |
+ 7. You may place library facilities that are a work based on the |
|
333 |
+Library side-by-side in a single library together with other library |
|
334 |
+facilities not covered by this License, and distribute such a combined |
|
335 |
+library, provided that the separate distribution of the work based on |
|
336 |
+the Library and of the other library facilities is otherwise |
|
337 |
+permitted, and provided that you do these two things: |
|
338 |
+ |
|
339 |
+ a) Accompany the combined library with a copy of the same work |
|
340 |
+ based on the Library, uncombined with any other library |
|
341 |
+ facilities. This must be distributed under the terms of the |
|
342 |
+ Sections above. |
|
343 |
+ |
|
344 |
+ b) Give prominent notice with the combined library of the fact |
|
345 |
+ that part of it is a work based on the Library, and explaining |
|
346 |
+ where to find the accompanying uncombined form of the same work. |
|
347 |
+ |
|
348 |
+ 8. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, link with, or distribute |
|
349 |
+the Library except as expressly provided under this License. Any |
|
350 |
+attempt otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense, link with, or |
|
351 |
+distribute the Library is void, and will automatically terminate your |
|
352 |
+rights under this License. However, parties who have received copies, |
|
353 |
+or rights, from you under this License will not have their licenses |
|
354 |
+terminated so long as such parties remain in full compliance. |
|
355 |
+ |
|
356 |
+ 9. You are not required to accept this License, since you have not |
|
357 |
+signed it. However, nothing else grants you permission to modify or |
|
358 |
+distribute the Library or its derivative works. These actions are |
|
359 |
+prohibited by law if you do not accept this License. Therefore, by |
|
360 |
+modifying or distributing the Library (or any work based on the |
|
361 |
+Library), you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so, and |
|
362 |
+all its terms and conditions for copying, distributing or modifying |
|
363 |
+the Library or works based on it. |
|
364 |
+ |
|
365 |
+ 10. Each time you redistribute the Library (or any work based on the |
|
366 |
+Library), the recipient automatically receives a license from the |
|
367 |
+original licensor to copy, distribute, link with or modify the Library |
|
368 |
+subject to these terms and conditions. You may not impose any further |
|
369 |
+restrictions on the recipients' exercise of the rights granted herein. |
|
370 |
+You are not responsible for enforcing compliance by third parties with |
|
371 |
+this License. |
|
372 |
+ |
|
373 |
+ 11. If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent |
|
374 |
+infringement or for any other reason (not limited to patent issues), |
|
375 |
+conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or |
|
376 |
+otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not |
|
377 |
+excuse you from the conditions of this License. If you cannot |
|
378 |
+distribute so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this |
|
379 |
+License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you |
|
380 |
+may not distribute the Library at all. For example, if a patent |
|
381 |
+license would not permit royalty-free redistribution of the Library by |
|
382 |
+all those who receive copies directly or indirectly through you, then |
|
383 |
+the only way you could satisfy both it and this License would be to |
|
384 |
+refrain entirely from distribution of the Library. |
|
385 |
+ |
|
386 |
+If any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable under any |
|
387 |
+particular circumstance, the balance of the section is intended to apply, |
|
388 |
+and the section as a whole is intended to apply in other circumstances. |
|
389 |
+ |
|
390 |
+It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe any |
|
391 |
+patents or other property right claims or to contest validity of any |
|
392 |
+such claims; this section has the sole purpose of protecting the |
|
393 |
+integrity of the free software distribution system which is |
|
394 |
+implemented by public license practices. Many people have made |
|
395 |
+generous contributions to the wide range of software distributed |
|
396 |
+through that system in reliance on consistent application of that |
|
397 |
+system; it is up to the author/donor to decide if he or she is willing |
|
398 |
+to distribute software through any other system and a licensee cannot |
|
399 |
+impose that choice. |
|
400 |
+ |
|
401 |
+This section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is believed to |
|
402 |
+be a consequence of the rest of this License. |
|
403 |
+ |
|
404 |
+ 12. If the distribution and/or use of the Library is restricted in |
|
405 |
+certain countries either by patents or by copyrighted interfaces, the |
|
406 |
+original copyright holder who places the Library under this License may add |
|
407 |
+an explicit geographical distribution limitation excluding those countries, |
|
408 |
+so that distribution is permitted only in or among countries not thus |
|
409 |
+excluded. In such case, this License incorporates the limitation as if |
|
410 |
+written in the body of this License. |
|
411 |
+ |
|
412 |
+ 13. The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new |
|
413 |
+versions of the Lesser General Public License from time to time. |
|
414 |
+Such new versions will be similar in spirit to the present version, |
|
415 |
+but may differ in detail to address new problems or concerns. |
|
416 |
+ |
|
417 |
+Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the Library |
|
418 |
+specifies a version number of this License which applies to it and |
|
419 |
+"any later version", you have the option of following the terms and |
|
420 |
+conditions either of that version or of any later version published by |
|
421 |
+the Free Software Foundation. If the Library does not specify a |
|
422 |
+license version number, you may choose any version ever published by |
|
423 |
+the Free Software Foundation. |
|
424 |
+ |
|
425 |
+ 14. If you wish to incorporate parts of the Library into other free |
|
426 |
+programs whose distribution conditions are incompatible with these, |
|
427 |
+write to the author to ask for permission. For software which is |
|
428 |
+copyrighted by the Free Software Foundation, write to the Free |
|
429 |
+Software Foundation; we sometimes make exceptions for this. Our |
|
430 |
+decision will be guided by the two goals of preserving the free status |
|
431 |
+of all derivatives of our free software and of promoting the sharing |
|
432 |
+and reuse of software generally. |
|
433 |
+ |
|
434 |
+ NO WARRANTY |
|
435 |
+ |
|
436 |
+ 15. BECAUSE THE LIBRARY IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE, THERE IS NO |
|
437 |
+WARRANTY FOR THE LIBRARY, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW. |
|
438 |
+EXCEPT WHEN OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS AND/OR |
|
439 |
+OTHER PARTIES PROVIDE THE LIBRARY "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY |
|
440 |
+KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE |
|
441 |
+IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR |
|
442 |
+PURPOSE. THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE |
|
443 |
+LIBRARY IS WITH YOU. SHOULD THE LIBRARY PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME |
|
444 |
+THE COST OF ALL NECESSARY SERVICING, REPAIR OR CORRECTION. |
|
445 |
+ |
|
446 |
+ 16. IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN |
|
447 |
+WRITING WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MAY MODIFY |
|
448 |
+AND/OR REDISTRIBUTE THE LIBRARY AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU |
|
449 |
+FOR DAMAGES, INCLUDING ANY GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR |
|
450 |
+CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE |
|
451 |
+LIBRARY (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF DATA OR DATA BEING |
|
452 |
+RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY YOU OR THIRD PARTIES OR A |
|
453 |
+FAILURE OF THE LIBRARY TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER SOFTWARE), EVEN IF |
|
454 |
+SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH |
|
455 |
+DAMAGES. |
|

457 |
+ END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS |
|
458 |
+ |
|
459 |
+ How to Apply These Terms to Your New Libraries |
|
460 |
+ |
|
461 |
+ If you develop a new library, and you want it to be of the greatest |
|
462 |
+possible use to the public, we recommend making it free software that |
|
463 |
+everyone can redistribute and change. You can do so by permitting |
|
464 |
+redistribution under these terms (or, alternatively, under the terms of the |
|
465 |
+ordinary General Public License). |
|
466 |
+ |
|
467 |
+ To apply these terms, attach the following notices to the library. It is |
|
468 |
+safest to attach them to the start of each source file to most effectively |
|
469 |
+convey the exclusion of warranty; and each file should have at least the |
|
470 |
+"copyright" line and a pointer to where the full notice is found. |
|
471 |
+ |
|
472 |
+ <one line to give the library's name and a brief idea of what it does.> |
