 Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies
46
 of this license document, but changing it is not allowed.
47

    
48
                            Preamble
49

    
50
  The licenses for most software are designed to take away your
51
freedom to share and change it.  By contrast, the GNU General Public
52
License is intended to guarantee your freedom to share and change free
53
software--to make sure the software is free for all its users.  This
54
General Public License applies to most of the Free Software
55
Foundation's software and to any other program whose authors commit to
56
using it.  (Some other Free Software Foundation software is covered by
57
the GNU Library General Public License instead.)  You can apply it to
58
your programs, too.
59

    
60
  When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not
61
price.  Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that you
62
have the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge for
63
this service if you wish), that you receive source code or can get it
64
if you want it, that you can change the software or use pieces of it
65
in new free programs; and that you know you can do these things.
66

    
67
  To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that forbid
68
anyone to deny you these rights or to ask you to surrender the rights.
69
These restrictions translate to certain responsibilities for you if you
70
distribute copies of the software, or if you modify it.
71

    
72
  For example, if you distribute copies of such a program, whether
73
gratis or for a fee, you must give the recipients all the rights that
74
you have.  You must make sure that they, too, receive or can get the
75
source code.  And you must show them these terms so they know their
76
rights.
77

    
78
  We protect your rights with two steps: (1) copyright the software, and
79
(2) offer you this license which gives you legal permission to copy,
80
distribute and/or modify the software.
81

    
82
  Also, for each author's protection and ours, we want to make certain
83
that everyone understands that there is no warranty for this free
84
software.  If the software is modified by someone else and passed on, we
85
want its recipients to know that what they have is not the original, so
86
that any problems introduced by others will not reflect on the original
87
authors' reputations.
88

    
89
  Finally, any free program is threatened constantly by software
90
patents.  We wish to avoid the danger that redistributors of a free
91
program will individually obtain patent licenses, in effect making the
92
program proprietary.  To prevent this, we have made it clear that any
93
patent must be licensed for everyone's free use or not licensed at all.
94

    
95
  The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and
96
modification follow.
97

    
98
                    GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE
99
   TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION
100

    
101
  0. This License applies to any program or other work which contains
102
a notice placed by the copyright holder saying it may be distributed
103
under the terms of this General Public License.  The "Program", below,
104
refers to any such program or work, and a "work based on the Program"
105
means either the Program or any derivative work under copyright law:
106
that is to say, a work containing the Program or a portion of it,
107
either verbatim or with modifications and/or translated into another
108
language.  (Hereinafter, translation is included without limitation in
109
the term "modification".)  Each licensee is addressed as "you".
110

    
111
Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are not
112
covered by this License; they are outside its scope.  The act of
113
running the Program is not restricted, and the output from the Program
114
is covered only if its contents constitute a work based on the
115
Program (independent of having been made by running the Program).
116
Whether that is true depends on what the Program does.
117

    
118
  1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Program's
119
source code as you receive it, in any medium, provided that you
120
conspicuously and appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate
121
copyright notice and disclaimer of warranty; keep intact all the
122
notices that refer to this License and to the absence of any warranty;
123
and give any other recipients of the Program a copy of this License
124
along with the Program.
125

    
126
You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy, and
127
you may at your option offer warranty protection in exchange for a fee.
128

    
129
  2. You may modify your copy or copies of the Program or any portion
130
of it, thus forming a work based on the Program, and copy and
131
distribute such modifications or work under the terms of Section 1
132
above, provided that you also meet all of these conditions:
133

    
134
    a) You must cause the modified files to carry prominent notices
135
    stating that you changed the files and the date of any change.
136

    
137
    b) You must cause any work that you distribute or publish, that in
138
    whole or in part contains or is derived from the Program or any
139
    part thereof, to be licensed as a whole at no charge to all third
140
    parties under the terms of this License.
141

    
142
    c) If the modified program normally reads commands interactively
143
    when run, you must cause it, when started running for such
144
    interactive use in the most ordinary way, to print or display an
145
    announcement including an appropriate copyright notice and a
146
    notice that there is no warranty (or else, saying that you provide
147
    a warranty) and that users may redistribute the program under
148
    these conditions, and telling the user how to view a copy of this
149
    License.  (Exception: if the Program itself is interactive but
150
    does not normally print such an announcement, your work based on
151
    the Program is not required to print an announcement.)
152

    
153
These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole.  If
154
identifiable sections of that work are not derived from the Program,
155
and can be reasonably considered independent and separate works in
156
themselves, then this License, and its terms, do not apply to those
157
sections when you distribute them as separate works.  But when you
158
distribute the same sections as part of a whole which is a work based
159
on the Program, the distribution of the whole must be on the terms of
160
this License, whose permissions for other licensees extend to the
161
entire whole, and thus to each and every part regardless of who wrote it.
162

    
163
Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest
164
your rights to work written entirely by you; rather, the intent is to
165
exercise the right to control the distribution of derivative or
166
collective works based on the Program.
167

    
168
In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the Program
169
with the Program (or with a work based on the Program) on a volume of
170
a storage or distribution medium does not bring the other work under
171
the scope of this License.
172

    
173
  3. You may copy and distribute the Program (or a work based on it,
174
under Section 2) in object code or executable form under the terms of
175
Sections 1 and 2 above provided that you also do one of the following:
176

    
177
    a) Accompany it with the complete corresponding machine-readable
178
    source code, which must be distributed under the terms of Sections
179
    1 and 2 above on a medium customarily used for software interchange; or,
180

    
181
    b) Accompany it with a written offer, valid for at least three
182
    years, to give any third party, for a charge no more than your
183
    cost of physically performing source distribution, a complete
184
    machine-readable copy of the corresponding source code, to be
185
    distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium
186
    customarily used for software interchange; or,
187

    
188
    c) Accompany it with the information you received as to the offer
189
    to distribute corresponding source code.  (This alternative is
190
    allowed only for noncommercial distribution and only if you
191
    received the program in object code or executable form with such
192
    an offer, in accord with Subsection b above.)
193

    
194
The source code for a work means the preferred form of the work for
195
making modifications to it.  For an executable work, complete source
196
code means all the source code for all modules it contains, plus any
197
associated interface definition files, plus the scripts used to
198
control compilation and installation of the executable.  However, as a
199
special exception, the source code distributed need not include
200
anything that is normally distributed (in either source or binary
201
form) with the major components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of the
202
operating system on which the executable runs, unless that component
203
itself accompanies the executable.
204

    
205
If distribution of executable or object code is made by offering
206
access to copy from a designated place, then offering equivalent
207
access to copy the source code from the same place counts as
208
distribution of the source code, even though third parties are not
209
compelled to copy the source along with the object code.
210

    
211
  4. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the Program
212
except as expressly provided under this License.  Any attempt
213
otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense or distribute the Program is
214
void, and will automatically terminate your rights under this License.
215
However, parties who have received copies, or rights, from you under
216
this License will not have their licenses terminated so long as such
217
parties remain in full compliance.
218

    
219
  5. You are not required to accept this License, since you have not
220
signed it.  However, nothing else grants you permission to modify or
221
distribute the Program or its derivative works.  These actions are
222
prohibited by law if you do not accept this License.  Therefore, by
223
modifying or distributing the Program (or any work based on the
224
Program), you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so, and
225
all its terms and conditions for copying, distributing or modifying
226
the Program or works based on it.
227

    
228
  6. Each time you redistribute the Program (or any work based on the
229
Program), the recipient automatically receives a license from the
230
original licensor to copy, distribute or modify the Program subject to
231
these terms and conditions.  You may not impose any further
232
restrictions on the recipients' exercise of the rights granted herein.
233
You are not responsible for enforcing compliance by third parties to
234
this License.
235

    
236
  7. If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent
237
infringement or for any other reason (not limited to patent issues),
238
conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or
239
otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not
240
excuse you from the conditions of this License.  If you cannot
241
distribute so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this
242
License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you
243
may not distribute the Program at all.  For example, if a patent
244
license would not permit royalty-free redistribution of the Program by
245
all those who receive copies directly or indirectly through you, then
246
the only way you could satisfy both it and this License would be to
247
refrain entirely from distribution of the Program.
248

    
249
If any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable under
250
any particular circumstance, the balance of the section is intended to
251
apply and the section as a whole is intended to apply in other
252
circumstances.
253

    
254
It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe any
255
patents or other property right claims or to contest validity of any
256
such claims; this section has the sole purpose of protecting the
257
integrity of the free software distribution system, which is
258
implemented by public license practices.  Many people have made
259
generous contributions to the wide range of software distributed
260
through that system in reliance on consistent application of that
261
system; it is up to the author/donor to decide if he or she is willing
262
to distribute software through any other system and a licensee cannot
263
impose that choice.
264

    
265
This section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is believed to
266
be a consequence of the rest of this License.
267

    
268
  8. If the distribution and/or use of the Program is restricted in
269
certain countries either by patents or by copyrighted interfaces, the
270
original copyright holder who places the Program under this License
271
may add an explicit geographical distribution limitation excluding
272
those countries, so that distribution is permitted only in or among
273
countries not thus excluded.  In such case, this License incorporates
274
the limitation as if written in the body of this License.
275

    
276
  9. The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions
277
of the General Public License from time to time.  Such new versions will
278
be similar in spirit to the present version, but may differ in detail to
279
address new problems or concerns.
280

    
281
Each version is given a distinguishing version number.  If the Program
282
specifies a version number of this License which applies to it and "any
283
later version", you have the option of following the terms and conditions
284
either of that version or of any later version published by the Free
285
Software Foundation.  If the Program does not specify a version number of
286
this License, you may choose any version ever published by the Free Software
287
Foundation.
288

    
289
  10. If you wish to incorporate parts of the Program into other free
290
programs whose distribution conditions are different, write to the author
291
to ask for permission.  For software which is copyrighted by the Free
292
Software Foundation, write to the Free Software Foundation; we sometimes
293
make exceptions for this.  Our decision will be guided by the two goals
294
of preserving the free status of all derivatives of our free software and
295
of promoting the sharing and reuse of software generally.
296

    
297
                            NO WARRANTY
298

    
299
  11. BECAUSE THE PROGRAM IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE, THERE IS NO WARRANTY
300
FOR THE PROGRAM, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW.  EXCEPT WHEN
301
OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER PARTIES
302
PROVIDE THE PROGRAM "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED
303
OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF
304
MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.  THE ENTIRE RISK AS
305
TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE PROGRAM IS WITH YOU.  SHOULD THE
306
PROGRAM PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE COST OF ALL NECESSARY SERVICING,
307
REPAIR OR CORRECTION.
308

    
309
  12. IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN WRITING
310
WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MAY MODIFY AND/OR
311
REDISTRIBUTE THE PROGRAM AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES,
312
INCLUDING ANY GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING
313
OUT OF THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED
314
TO LOSS OF DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY
315
YOU OR THIRD PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF THE PROGRAM TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER
316
PROGRAMS), EVEN IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE
317
POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
318

    
319
                     END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS
320

    
321
            How to Apply These Terms to Your New Programs
322

    
323
  If you develop a new program, and you want it to be of the greatest
324
possible use to the public, the best way to achieve this is to make it
325
free software which everyone can redistribute and change under these terms.
326

    
327
  To do so, attach the following notices to the program.  It is safest
328
to attach them to the start of each source file to most effectively
329
convey the exclusion of warranty; and each file should have at least
330
the "copyright" line and a pointer to where the full notice is found.
331

    
332
    <one line to give the program's name and a brief idea of what it does.>
333
    Copyright (C) <year>  <name of author>
334

    
335
    This program is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify
336
    it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by
337
    the Free Software Foundation; either version 2 of the License, or
338
    (at your option) any later version.
339

    
340
    This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful,
341
    but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of
342
    MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.  See the
343
    GNU General Public License for more details.
344

    
345
    You should have received a copy of the GNU General Public License
346
    along with this program; if not, write to the Free Software
347
    Foundation, Inc., 59 Temple Place, Suite 330, Boston, MA  02111-1307  USA
348

    
349

    
350
Also add information on how to contact you by electronic and paper mail.
351

    
352
If the program is interactive, make it output a short notice like this
353
when it starts in an interactive mode:
354

    
355
    Gnomovision version 69, Copyright (C) year name of author
356
    Gnomovision comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY; for details type `show w'.
357
    This is free software, and you are welcome to redistribute it
358
    under certain conditions; type `show c' for details.
359

    
360
The hypothetical commands `show w' and `show c' should show the appropriate
361
parts of the General Public License.  Of course, the commands you use may
362
be called something other than `show w' and `show c'; they could even be
363
mouse-clicks or menu items--whatever suits your program.
364

    
365
You should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer) or your
366
school, if any, to sign a "copyright disclaimer" for the program, if
367
necessary.  Here is a sample; alter the names:
368

    
369
  Yoyodyne, Inc., hereby disclaims all copyright interest in the program
370
  `Gnomovision' (which makes passes at compilers) written by James Hacker.

375
This General Public License does not permit incorporating your program into
376
proprietary programs.  If your program is a subroutine library, you may
377
consider it more useful to permit linking proprietary applications with the
378
library.  If this is what you want to do, use the GNU Library General
379
Public License instead of this License.
