By contrast, our General Public License is intended +to guarantee your freedom to share and change free software--to make sure +the software is free for all its users. The General Public License applies +to the Free Software Foundation's software and to any other program whose +authors commit to using it. You can use it for your programs, too. + +When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not price. Specifically, +the General Public License is designed to make sure that you have the freedom +to give away or sell copies of free software, that you receive source code +or can get it if you want it, that you can change the software or use pieces +of it in new free programs; and that you know you can do these things. + +To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that forbid anyone to +deny you these rights or to ask you to surrender the rights. These restrictions +translate to certain responsibilities for you if you distribute copies of +the software, or if you modify it. + +For example, if you distribute copies of a such a program, whether gratis +or for a fee, you must give the recipients all the rights that you have. You +must make sure that they, too, receive or can get the source code. And you +must tell them their rights. + +We protect your rights with two steps: (1) copyright the software, and (2) +offer you this license which gives you legal permission to copy, distribute +and/or modify the software. + +Also, for each author's protection and ours, we want to make certain that +everyone understands that there is no warranty for this free software. If +the software is modified by someone else and passed on, we want its recipients +to know that what they have is not the original, so that any problems introduced +by others will not reflect on the original authors' reputations. + +The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and modification +follow. + +GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION +AND MODIFICATION + +0. This License Agreement applies to any program or other work which contains +a notice placed by the copyright holder saying it may be distributed under +the terms of this General Public License. The "Program", below, refers to +any such program or work, and a "work based on the Program" means either the +Program or any work containing the Program or a portion of it, either verbatim +or with modifications. Each licensee is addressed as "you". + +1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Program's source code +as you receive it, in any medium, provided that you conspicuously and appropriately +publish on each copy an appropriate copyright notice and disclaimer of warranty; +keep intact all the notices that refer to this General Public License and +to the absence of any warranty; and give any other recipients of the Program +a copy of this General Public License along with the Program. You may charge +a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy. + +2. You may modify your copy or copies of the Program or any portion of it, +and copy and distribute such modifications under the terms of Paragraph 1 +above, provided that you also do the following: + +a) cause the modified files to carry prominent notices stating that you changed +the files and the date of any change; and + +b) cause the whole of any work that you distribute or publish, that in whole +or in part contains the Program or any part thereof, either with or without +modifications, to be licensed at no charge to all third parties under the +terms of this General Public License (except that you may choose to grant +warranty protection to some or all third parties, at your option). + +c) If the modified program normally reads commands interactively when run, +you must cause it, when started running for such interactive use in the simplest +and most usual way, to print or display an announcement including an appropriate +copyright notice and a notice that there is no warranty (or else, saying that +you provide a warranty) and that users may redistribute the program under +these conditions, and telling the user how to view a copy of this General +Public License. + +d) You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy, and you +may at your option offer warranty protection in exchange for a fee. + +Mere aggregation of another independent work with the Program (or its derivative) +on a volume of a storage or distribution medium does not bring the other work +under the scope of these terms. + +3. You may copy and distribute the Program (or a portion or derivative of +it, under Paragraph 2) in object code or executable form under the terms of +Paragraphs 1 and 2 above provided that you also do one of the following: + +a) accompany it with the complete corresponding machine-readable source code, +which must be distributed under the terms of Paragraphs 1 and 2 above; or, + +b) accompany it with a written offer, valid for at least three years, to give +any third party free (except for a nominal charge for the cost of distribution) +a complete machine-readable copy of the corresponding source code, to be distributed +under the terms of Paragraphs 1 and 2 above; or, + +c) accompany it with the information you received as to where the corresponding +source code may be obtained. (This alternative is allowed only for noncommercial +distribution and only if you received the program in object code or executable +form alone.) + +Source code for a work means the preferred form of the work for making modifications +to it. For an executable file, complete source code means all the source code +for all modules it contains; but, as a special exception, it need not include +source code for modules which are standard libraries that accompany the operating +system on which the executable file runs, or for standard header files or +definitions files that accompany that operating system. + +4. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, distribute or transfer the Program +except as expressly provided under this General Public License. Any attempt +otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense, distribute or transfer the Program +is void, and will automatically terminate your rights to use the Program under +this License. However, parties who have received copies, or rights to use +copies, from you under this General Public License will not have their licenses +terminated so long as such parties remain in full compliance. + +5. By copying, distributing or modifying the Program (or any work based on +the Program) you indicate your acceptance of this license to do so, and all +its terms and conditions. + +6. Each time you redistribute the Program (or any work based on the Program), +the recipient automatically receives a license from the original licensor +to copy, distribute or modify the Program subject to these terms and conditions. +You may not impose any further restrictions on the recipients' exercise of +the rights granted herein. + +7. The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions of +the General Public License from time to time. Such new versions will be similar +in spirit to the present version, but may differ in detail to address new +problems or concerns. + +Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the Program specifies +a version number of the license which applies to it and "any later version", +you have the option of following the terms and conditions either of that version +or of any later version published by the Free Software Foundation. If the +Program does not specify a version number of the license, you may choose any +version ever published by the Free Software Foundation. + +8. If you wish to incorporate parts of the Program into other free programs +whose distribution conditions are different, write to the author to ask for +permission. For software which is copyrighted by the Free Software Foundation, +write to the Free Software Foundation; we sometimes make exceptions for this. +Our decision will be guided by the two goals of preserving the free status +of all derivatives of our free software and of promoting the sharing and reuse +of software generally. + + + + NO WARRANTY 9. + +BECAUSE THE PROGRAM IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE, THERE IS NO WARRANTY FOR THE +PROGRAM, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW. EXCEPT WHEN OTHERWISE +STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER PARTIES PROVIDE THE PROGRAM +"AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, +BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS +FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE +OF THE PROGRAM IS WITH YOU. SHOULD THE PROGRAM PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME +THE COST OF ALL NECESSARY SERVICING, REPAIR OR CORRECTION. + +10. IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN WRITING +WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MAY MODIFY AND/OR REDISTRIBUTE +THE PROGRAM AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES, INCLUDING ANY +GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THE USE +OR INABILITY TO USE THE PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF DATA +OR DATA BEING RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY YOU OR THIRD PARTIES +OR A FAILURE OF THE PROGRAM TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER PROGRAMS), EVEN IF SUCH +HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. +END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS + +Appendix: How to Apply These Terms to Your New Programs + +If you develop a new program, and you want it to be of the greatest possible +use to humanity, the best way to achieve this is to make it free software +which everyone can redistribute and change under these terms. + +To do so, attach the following notices to the program. It is safest to attach +them to the start of each source file to most effectively convey the exclusion +of warranty; and each file should have at least the "copyright" line and a +pointer to where the full notice is found. + +<one line to give the program's name and a brief idea of what it does.> + +Copyright (C) 19yy <name of author> + +This program is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify it under +the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by the Free Software +Foundation; either version 1, or (at your option) any later version. + +This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful, but WITHOUT +ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS +FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. See the GNU General Public License for more details. + +You should have received a copy of the GNU General Public License along with +this program; if not, write to the Free Software Foundation, Inc., 675 Mass +Ave, Cambridge, MA 02139, USA. + +Also add information on how to contact you by electronic and paper mail. + +If the program is interactive, make it output a short notice like this when +it starts in an interactive mode: + +Gnomovision version 69, Copyright (C) 19xx name of author Gnomovision comes +with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY; for details type `show w'. This is free software, +and you are welcome to redistribute it under certain conditions; type `show +c' for details. + +The hypothetical commands `show w' and `show c' should show the appropriate +parts of the General Public License. Of course, the commands you use may be +called something other than `show w' and `show c'; they could even be mouse-clicks +or menu items--whatever suits your program. + +You should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer) or your school, +if any, to sign a "copyright disclaimer" for the program, if necessary. Here +a sample; alter the names: + +Yoyodyne, Inc., hereby disclaims all copyright interest in the program `Gnomovision' +(a program to direct compilers to make passes at assemblers) written by James +Hacker. + +<signature of Ty Coon>, 1 April 1989 Ty Coon, President of Vice + +That's all there is to it! |
