33 Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies
34 of this license document, but changing it is not allowed.
38 The licenses for most software are designed to take away your
39 freedom to share and change it. By contrast, the GNU General Public
40 License is intended to guarantee your freedom to share and change free
41 software--to make sure the software is free for all its users. This
42 General Public License applies to most of the Free Software
43 Foundation's software and to any other program whose authors commit to
44 using it. (Some other Free Software Foundation software is covered by
45 the GNU Library General Public License instead.) You can apply it to
48 When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not
49 price. Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that you
50 have the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge for
51 this service if you wish), that you receive source code or can get it
52 if you want it, that you can change the software or use pieces of it
53 in new free programs; and that you know you can do these things.
55 To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that forbid
56 anyone to deny you these rights or to ask you to surrender the rights.
57 These restrictions translate to certain responsibilities for you if you
58 distribute copies of the software, or if you modify it.
60 For example, if you distribute copies of such a program, whether
61 gratis or for a fee, you must give the recipients all the rights that
62 you have. You must make sure that they, too, receive or can get the
63 source code. And you must show them these terms so they know their
66 We protect your rights with two steps: (1) copyright the software, and
67 (2) offer you this license which gives you legal permission to copy,
68 distribute and/or modify the software.
70 Also, for each author's protection and ours, we want to make certain
71 that everyone understands that there is no warranty for this free
72 software. If the software is modified by someone else and passed on, we
73 want its recipients to know that what they have is not the original, so
74 that any problems introduced by others will not reflect on the original
77 Finally, any free program is threatened constantly by software
78 patents. We wish to avoid the danger that redistributors of a free
79 program will individually obtain patent licenses, in effect making the
80 program proprietary. To prevent this, we have made it clear that any
81 patent must be licensed for everyone's free use or not licensed at all.
83 The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and
87 GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE
88 TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION
90 0. This License applies to any program or other work which contains
91 a notice placed by the copyright holder saying it may be distributed
92 under the terms of this General Public License. The "Program", below,
93 refers to any such program or work, and a "work based on the Program"
94 means either the Program or any derivative work under copyright law:
95 that is to say, a work containing the Program or a portion of it,
96 either verbatim or with modifications and/or translated into another
97 language. (Hereinafter, translation is included without limitation in
98 the term "modification".) Each licensee is addressed as "you".
100 Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are not
101 covered by this License; they are outside its scope. The act of
102 running the Program is not restricted, and the output from the Program
103 is covered only if its contents constitute a work based on the
104 Program (independent of having been made by running the Program).
105 Whether that is true depends on what the Program does.
107 1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Program's
108 source code as you receive it, in any medium, provided that you
109 conspicuously and appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate
110 copyright notice and disclaimer of warranty; keep intact all the
111 notices that refer to this License and to the absence of any warranty;
112 and give any other recipients of the Program a copy of this License
113 along with the Program.
115 You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy, and
116 you may at your option offer warranty protection in exchange for a fee.
118 2. You may modify your copy or copies of the Program or any portion
119 of it, thus forming a work based on the Program, and copy and
120 distribute such modifications or work under the terms of Section 1
121 above, provided that you also meet all of these conditions:
123 a) You must cause the modified files to carry prominent notices
124 stating that you changed the files and the date of any change.
126 b) You must cause any work that you distribute or publish, that in
127 whole or in part contains or is derived from the Program or any
128 part thereof, to be licensed as a whole at no charge to all third
129 parties under the terms of this License.
131 c) If the modified program normally reads commands interactively
132 when run, you must cause it, when started running for such
133 interactive use in the most ordinary way, to print or display an
134 announcement including an appropriate copyright notice and a
135 notice that there is no warranty (or else, saying that you provide
136 a warranty) and that users may redistribute the program under
137 these conditions, and telling the user how to view a copy of this
138 License. (Exception: if the Program itself is interactive but
139 does not normally print such an announcement, your work based on
140 the Program is not required to print an announcement.)
142 These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole. If
143 identifiable sections of that work are not derived from the Program,
144 and can be reasonably considered independent and separate works in
145 themselves, then this License, and its terms, do not apply to those
146 sections when you distribute them as separate works. But when you
147 distribute the same sections as part of a whole which is a work based
148 on the Program, the distribution of the whole must be on the terms of
149 this License, whose permissions for other licensees extend to the
150 entire whole, and thus to each and every part regardless of who wrote it.
152 Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest
153 your rights to work written entirely by you; rather, the intent is to
154 exercise the right to control the distribution of derivative or
155 collective works based on the Program.
157 In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the Program
158 with the Program (or with a work based on the Program) on a volume of
159 a storage or distribution medium does not bring the other work under
160 the scope of this License.
162 3. You may copy and distribute the Program (or a work based on it,
163 under Section 2) in object code or executable form under the terms of
164 Sections 1 and 2 above provided that you also do one of the following:
166 a) Accompany it with the complete corresponding machine-readable
167 source code, which must be distributed under the terms of Sections
168 1 and 2 above on a medium customarily used for software interchange; or,
170 b) Accompany it with a written offer, valid for at least three
171 years, to give any third party, for a charge no more than your
172 cost of physically performing source distribution, a complete
173 machine-readable copy of the corresponding source code, to be
174 distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium
175 customarily used for software interchange; or,
177 c) Accompany it with the information you received as to the offer
178 to distribute corresponding source code. (This alternative is
179 allowed only for noncommercial distribution and only if you
180 received the program in object code or executable form with such
181 an offer, in accord with Subsection b above.)
183 The source code for a work means the preferred form of the work for
184 making modifications to it. For an executable work, complete source
185 code means all the source code for all modules it contains, plus any
186 associated interface definition files, plus the scripts used to
187 control compilation and installation of the executable. However, as a
188 special exception, the source code distributed need not include
189 anything that is normally distributed (in either source or binary
190 form) with the major components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of the
191 operating system on which the executable runs, unless that component
192 itself accompanies the executable.
194 If distribution of executable or object code is made by offering
195 access to copy from a designated place, then offering equivalent
196 access to copy the source code from the same place counts as
197 distribution of the source code, even though third parties are not
198 compelled to copy the source along with the object code.
200 4. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the Program
201 except as expressly provided under this License. Any attempt
202 otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense or distribute the Program is
203 void, and will automatically terminate your rights under this License.
204 However, parties who have received copies, or rights, from you under
205 this License will not have their licenses terminated so long as such
206 parties remain in full compliance.
208 5. You are not required to accept this License, since you have not
209 signed it. However, nothing else grants you permission to modify or
210 distribute the Program or its derivative works. These actions are
211 prohibited by law if you do not accept this License. Therefore, by
212 modifying or distributing the Program (or any work based on the
213 Program), you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so, and
214 all its terms and conditions for copying, distributing or modifying
215 the Program or works based on it.
217 6. Each time you redistribute the Program (or any work based on the
218 Program), the recipient automatically receives a license from the
219 original licensor to copy, distribute or modify the Program subject to
220 these terms and conditions. You may not impose any further
221 restrictions on the recipients' exercise of the rights granted herein.
222 You are not responsible for enforcing compliance by third parties to
225 7. If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent
226 infringement or for any other reason (not limited to patent issues),
227 conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or
228 otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not
229 excuse you from the conditions of this License. If you cannot
230 distribute so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this
231 License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you
232 may not distribute the Program at all. For example, if a patent
233 license would not permit royalty-free redistribution of the Program by
234 all those who receive copies directly or indirectly through you, then
235 the only way you could satisfy both it and this License would be to
236 refrain entirely from distribution of the Program.
238 If any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable under
239 any particular circumstance, the balance of the section is intended to
240 apply and the section as a whole is intended to apply in other
243 It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe any
244 patents or other property right claims or to contest validity of any
245 such claims; this section has the sole purpose of protecting the
246 integrity of the free software distribution system, which is
247 implemented by public license practices. Many people have made
248 generous contributions to the wide range of software distributed
249 through that system in reliance on consistent application of that
250 system; it is up to the author/donor to decide if he or she is willing
251 to distribute software through any other system and a licensee cannot
254 This section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is believed to
255 be a consequence of the rest of this License.
257 8. If the distribution and/or use of the Program is restricted in
258 certain countries either by patents or by copyrighted interfaces, the
259 original copyright holder who places the Program under this License
260 may add an explicit geographical distribution limitation excluding
261 those countries, so that distribution is permitted only in or among
262 countries not thus excluded. In such case, this License incorporates
263 the limitation as if written in the body of this License.
265 9. The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions
266 of the General Public License from time to time. Such new versions will
267 be similar in spirit to the present version, but may differ in detail to
268 address new problems or concerns.
270 Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the Program
271 specifies a version number of this License which applies to it and "any
272 later version", you have the option of following the terms and conditions
273 either of that version or of any later version published by the Free
274 Software Foundation. If the Program does not specify a version number of
275 this License, you may choose any version ever published by the Free Software
278 10. If you wish to incorporate parts of the Program into other free
279 programs whose distribution conditions are different, write to the author
280 to ask for permission. For software which is copyrighted by the Free
281 Software Foundation, write to the Free Software Foundation; we sometimes
282 make exceptions for this. Our decision will be guided by the two goals
283 of preserving the free status of all derivatives of our free software and
284 of promoting the sharing and reuse of software generally.
288 11. BECAUSE THE PROGRAM IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE, THERE IS NO WARRANTY
289 FOR THE PROGRAM, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW. EXCEPT WHEN
290 OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER PARTIES
291 PROVIDE THE PROGRAM "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED
292 OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF
293 MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. THE ENTIRE RISK AS
294 TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE PROGRAM IS WITH YOU. SHOULD THE
295 PROGRAM PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE COST OF ALL NECESSARY SERVICING,
296 REPAIR OR CORRECTION.
298 12. IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN WRITING
299 WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MAY MODIFY AND/OR
300 REDISTRIBUTE THE PROGRAM AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES,
301 INCLUDING ANY GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING
302 OUT OF THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED
303 TO LOSS OF DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY
304 YOU OR THIRD PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF THE PROGRAM TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER
305 PROGRAMS), EVEN IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE
306 POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
308 END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS
311 Appendix: How to Apply These Terms to Your New Programs
313 If you develop a new program, and you want it to be of the greatest
314 possible use to the public, the best way to achieve this is to make it
315 free software which everyone can redistribute and change under these terms.
317 To do so, attach the following notices to the program. It is safest
318 to attach them to the start of each source file to most effectively
319 convey the exclusion of warranty; and each file should have at least
320 the "copyright" line and a pointer to where the full notice is found.
322 <one line to give the program's name and a brief idea of what it does.>
323 Copyright (C) 19yy <name of author>
325 This program is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify
326 it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by
327 the Free Software Foundation; either version 2 of the License, or
328 (at your option) any later version.
330 This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful,
331 but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of
332 MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. See the
333 GNU General Public License for more details.
335 You should have received a copy of the GNU General Public License
336 along with this program; if not, write to the Free Software
337 Foundation, Inc., 675 Mass Ave, Cambridge, MA 02139, USA.
339 Also add information on how to contact you by electronic and paper mail.
341 If the program is interactive, make it output a short notice like this
342 when it starts in an interactive mode:
344 Gnomovision version 69, Copyright (C) 19yy name of author
345 Gnomovision comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY; for details type `show w'.
346 This is free software, and you are welcome to redistribute it
347 under certain conditions; type `show c' for details.
349 The hypothetical commands `show w' and `show c' should show the appropriate
350 parts of the General Public License. Of course, the commands you use may
351 be called something other than `show w' and `show c'; they could even be
352 mouse-clicks or menu items--whatever suits your program.
354 You should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer) or your
355 school, if any, to sign a "copyright disclaimer" for the program, if
356 necessary. Here is a sample; alter the names:
358 Yoyodyne, Inc., hereby disclaims all copyright interest in the program

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