By contrast, the + <acronym>GNU</acronym> General Public License is intended to guarantee your + freedom to share and change all versions of a program—to make sure it + remains free software for all its users. We, the Free Software Foundation, + use the <acronym>GNU</acronym> General Public License for most of our + software; it applies also to any other work released this way by its + authors. You can apply it to your programs, too. + </para> + <para> + When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not price. Our + General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that you have the freedom + to distribute copies of free software (and charge for them if you wish), + 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. + </para> + <para> + To protect your rights, we need to prevent others from denying you these + rights or asking you to surrender the rights. Therefore, you have certain + responsibilities if you distribute copies of the software, or if you modify + it: responsibilities to respect the freedom of others. + </para> + <para> + For example, if you distribute copies of such a program, whether gratis or + for a fee, you must pass on to the recipients the same freedoms that you + received. You must make sure that they, too, receive or can get the source + code. And you must show them these terms so they know their rights. + </para> + <para> + Developers that use the <acronym>GNU</acronym> <acronym>GPL</acronym> + protect your rights with two steps: (1) assert copyright on the software, + and (2) offer you this License giving you legal permission to copy, + distribute and/or modify it. + </para> + <para> + For the developers’ and authors’ protection, the + <acronym>GPL</acronym> clearly explains that there is no warranty for this + free software. For both users’ and authors’ sake, the + <acronym>GPL</acronym> requires that modified versions be marked as changed, + so that their problems will not be attributed erroneously to authors of + previous versions. + </para> + <para> + Some devices are designed to deny users access to install or run modified + versions of the software inside them, although the manufacturer can do so. + This is fundamentally incompatible with the aim of protecting users’ + freedom to change the software. The systematic pattern of such abuse occurs + in the area of products for individuals to use, which is precisely where it + is most unacceptable. Therefore, we have designed this version of the + <acronym>GPL</acronym> to prohibit the practice for those products. If such + problems arise substantially in other domains, we stand ready to extend this + provision to those domains in future versions of the <acronym>GPL</acronym>, + as needed to protect the freedom of users. + </para> + <para> + Finally, every program is threatened constantly by software patents. States + should not allow patents to restrict development and use of software on + general-purpose computers, but in those that do, we wish to avoid the + special danger that patents applied to a free program could make it + effectively proprietary. To prevent this, the <acronym>GPL</acronym> + assures that patents cannot be used to render the program non-free. + </para> + <para> + The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and modification + follow. + </para> + <bridgehead> + TERMS AND CONDITIONS + </bridgehead> + <bridgehead renderas="sect1"> + 0. Definitions. + </bridgehead> + <para> + “This License” refers to version 3 of the <acronym>GNU</acronym> + General Public License. + </para> + <para> + “Copyright” also means copyright-like laws that apply to other + kinds of works, such as semiconductor masks. + </para> + <para> + “The Program” refers to any copyrightable work licensed under + this License. Each licensee is addressed as “you”. + “Licensees” and “recipients” may be individuals or + organizations. + </para> + <para> + To “modify” a work means to copy from or adapt all or part of + the work in a fashion requiring copyright permission, other than the making + of an exact copy. The resulting work is called a “modified + version” of the earlier work or a work “based on” the + earlier work. + </para> + <para> + A “covered work” means either the unmodified Program or a work + based on the Program. + </para> + <para> + To “propagate” a work means to do anything with it that, without + permission, would make you directly or secondarily liable for infringement + under applicable copyright law, except executing it on a computer or + modifying a private copy. Propagation includes copying, distribution (with + or without modification), making available to the public, and in some + countries other activities as well. + </para> + <para> + To “convey” a work means any kind of propagation that enables + other parties to make or receive copies. Mere interaction with a user + through a computer network, with no transfer of a copy, is not conveying. + </para> + <para> + An interactive user interface displays “Appropriate Legal + Notices” to the extent that it includes a convenient and prominently + visible feature that (1) displays an appropriate copyright notice, and (2) + tells the user that there is no warranty for the work (except to the extent + that warranties are provided), that licensees may convey the work under this + License, and how to view a copy of this License. If the interface presents + a list of user commands or options, such as a menu, a prominent item in the + list meets this criterion. + </para> + <bridgehead renderas="sect1"> + 1. Source Code. + </bridgehead> + <para> + The “source code” for a work means the preferred form of the + work for making modifications to it. “Object code” means any + non-source form of a work. + </para> + <para> + A “Standard Interface” means an interface that either is an + official standard defined by a recognized standards body, or, in the case of + interfaces specified for a particular programming language, one that is + widely used among developers working in that language. + </para> + <para> + The “System Libraries” of an executable work include anything, + other than the work as a whole, that (a) is included in the normal form of + packaging a Major Component, but which is not part of that Major Component, + and (b) serves only to enable use of the work with that Major Component, or + to implement a Standard Interface for which an implementation is available + to the public in source code form. A “Major Component”, in this + context, means a major essential component (kernel, window system, and so + on) of the specific operating system (if any) on which the executable work + runs, or a compiler used to produce the work, or an object code interpreter + used to run it. + </para> + <para> + The “Corresponding Source” for a work in object code form means + all the source code needed to generate, install, and (for an executable + work) run the object code and to modify the work, including scripts to + control those activities. However, it does not include the work’s + System Libraries, or general-purpose tools or generally available free + programs which are used unmodified in performing those activities but which + are not part of the work. For example, Corresponding Source includes + interface definition files associated with source files for the work, and + the source code for shared libraries and dynamically linked subprograms that + the work is specifically designed to require, such as by intimate data + communication or control flow between those subprograms and other parts of + the work. + </para> + <para> + The Corresponding Source need not include anything that users can regenerate + automatically from other parts of the Corresponding Source. + </para> + <para> + The Corresponding Source for a work in source code form is that same work. + </para> + <bridgehead renderas="sect1"> + 2. Basic Permissions. + </bridgehead> + <para> + All rights granted under this License are granted for the term of copyright + on the Program, and are irrevocable provided the stated conditions are met. + This License explicitly affirms your unlimited permission to run the + unmodified Program. The output from running a covered work is covered by + this License only if the output, given its content, constitutes a covered + work. This License acknowledges your rights of fair use or other + equivalent, as provided by copyright law. + </para> + <para> + You may make, run and propagate covered works that you do not convey, + without conditions so long as your license otherwise remains in force. You + may convey covered works to others for the sole purpose of having them make + modifications exclusively for you, or provide you with facilities for + running those works, provided that you comply with the terms of this License + in conveying all material for which you do not control copyright. Those + thus making or running the covered works for you must do so exclusively on + your behalf, under your direction and control, on terms that prohibit them + from making any copies of your copyrighted material outside their + relationship with you. + </para> + <para> + Conveying under any other circumstances is permitted solely under the + conditions stated below. Sublicensing is not allowed; section 10 makes it + unnecessary. + </para> + <bridgehead renderas="sect1"> + 3. Protecting Users’ Legal Rights From Anti-Circumvention Law. + </bridgehead> + <para> + No covered work shall be deemed part of an effective technological measure + under any applicable law fulfilling obligations under article 11 of the WIPO + copyright treaty adopted on 20 December 1996, or similar laws prohibiting or + restricting circumvention of such measures. + </para> + <para> + When you convey a covered work, you waive any legal power to forbid + circumvention of technological measures to the extent such circumvention is + effected by exercising rights under this License with respect to the covered + work, and you disclaim any intention to limit operation or modification of + the work as a means of enforcing, against the work’s users, your or + third parties’ legal rights to forbid circumvention of technological + measures. + </para> + <bridgehead renderas="sect1"> + 4. Conveying Verbatim Copies. + </bridgehead> + <para> + You may convey 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; keep intact all + notices stating that this License and any non-permissive terms added in + accord with section 7 apply to the code; keep intact all notices of the + absence of any warranty; and give all recipients a copy of this License + along with the Program. + </para> + <para> + You may charge any price or no price for each copy that you convey, and you + may offer support or warranty protection for a fee. + </para> + <bridgehead renderas="sect1"> + 5. Conveying Modified Source Versions. + </bridgehead> + <para> + You may convey a work based on the Program, or the modifications to produce + it from the Program, in the form of source code under the terms of section + 4, provided that you also meet all of these conditions: + </para> + <orderedlist numeration="loweralpha"> + <listitem> + <para> + The work must carry prominent notices stating that you modified it, and + giving a relevant date. + </para> + </listitem> + <listitem> + <para> + The work must carry prominent notices stating that it is released under + this License and any conditions added under section 7. This requirement + modifies the requirement in section 4 to “keep intact all + notices”. + </para> + </listitem> + <listitem> + <para> + You must license the entire work, as a whole, under this License to + anyone who comes into possession of a copy. This License will therefore + apply, along with any applicable section 7 additional terms, to the + whole of the work, and all its parts, regardless of how they are + packaged. This License gives no permission to license the work in any + other way, but it does not invalidate such permission if you have + separately received it. + </para> + </listitem> + <listitem> + <para> + If the work has interactive user interfaces, each must display + Appropriate Legal Notices; however, if the Program has interactive + interfaces that do not display Appropriate Legal Notices, your work need + not make them do so. + </para> + </listitem> + </orderedlist> + <para> + A compilation of a covered work with other separate and independent works, + which are not by their nature extensions of the covered work, and which are + not combined with it such as to form a larger program, in or on a volume of + a storage or distribution medium, is called an “aggregate” if + the compilation and its resulting copyright are not used to limit the access + or legal rights of the compilation’s users beyond what the individual works + permit. Inclusion of a covered work in an aggregate does not cause + this License to apply to the other parts of the aggregate. + </para> + <bridgehead renderas="sect1"> + 6. Conveying Non-Source Forms. + </bridgehead> + <para> + You may convey a covered work in object code form under the terms of + sections 4 and 5, provided that you also convey the machine-readable + Corresponding Source under the terms of this License, in one of these ways: + </para> + <orderedlist numeration="loweralpha"> + <listitem> + <para> + Convey the object code in, or embodied in, a physical product (including + a physical distribution medium), accompanied by the Corresponding Source + fixed on a durable physical medium customarily used for software + interchange. + </para> + </listitem> + <listitem> + <para> + Convey the object code in, or embodied in, a physical product (including + a physical distribution medium), accompanied by a written offer, valid + for at least three years and valid for as long as you offer spare parts + or customer support for that product model, to give anyone who possesses + the object code either (1) a copy of the Corresponding Source for all + the software in the product that is covered by this License, on a + durable physical medium customarily used for software interchange, for a + price no more than your reasonable cost of physically performing this + conveying of source, or (2) access to copy the Corresponding Source from + a network server at no charge. + </para> + </listitem> + <listitem> + <para> + Convey individual copies of the object code with a copy of the written + offer to provide the Corresponding Source. This alternative is allowed + only occasionally and noncommercially, and only if you received the + object code with such an offer, in accord with subsection 6b. + </para> + </listitem> + <listitem> + <para> + Convey the object code by offering access from a designated place + (gratis or for a charge), and offer equivalent access to the + Corresponding Source in the same way through the same place at no + further charge. You need not require recipients to copy the + Corresponding Source along with the object code. If the place to copy + the object code is a network server, the Corresponding Source may be on + a different server (operated by you or a third party) that supports + equivalent copying facilities, provided you maintain clear directions + next to the object code saying where to find the Corresponding Source. + Regardless of what server hosts the Corresponding Source, you remain + obligated to ensure that it is available for as long as needed to + satisfy these requirements. + </para> + </listitem> + <listitem> + <para> + Convey the object code using peer-to-peer transmission, provided you + inform other peers where the object code and Corresponding Source of the + work are being offered to the general public at no charge under + subsection 6d. + </para> + </listitem> + </orderedlist> + <para> + A separable portion of the object code, whose source code is excluded from + the Corresponding Source as a System Library, need not be included in + conveying the object code work. + </para> + <para> + A “User Product” is either (1) a “consumer product”, + which means any tangible personal property which is normally used for + personal, family, or household purposes, or (2) anything designed or sold + for incorporation into a dwelling. In determining whether a product is a + consumer product, doubtful cases shall be resolved in favor of coverage. + For a particular product received by a particular user, “normally + used” refers to a typical or common use of that class of product, + regardless of the status of the particular user or of the way in which the + particular user actually uses, or expects or is expected to use, the + product. A product is a consumer product regardless of whether the product + has substantial commercial, industrial or non-consumer uses, unless such + uses represent the only significant mode of use of the product. + </para> + <para> + “Installation Information” for a User Product means any methods, + procedures, authorization keys, or other information required to install and + execute modified versions of a covered work in that User Product from a + modified version of its Corresponding Source. The information must suffice + to ensure that the continued functioning of the modified object code is in + no case prevented or interfered with solely because modification has been + made. + </para> + <para> + If you convey an object code work under this section in, or with, or + specifically for use in, a User Product, and the conveying occurs as part of + a transaction in which the right of possession and use of the User Product + is transferred to the recipient in perpetuity or for a fixed term + (regardless of how the transaction is characterized), the Corresponding + Source conveyed under this section must be accompanied by the Installation + Information. But this requirement does not apply if neither you nor any + third party retains the ability to install modified object code on the User + Product (for example, the work has been installed in + <acronym>ROM</acronym>). + </para> + <para> + The requirement to provide Installation Information does not include a + requirement to continue to provide support service, warranty, or updates for + a work that has been modified or installed by the recipient, or for the User + Product in which it has been modified or installed. Access to a network may + be denied when the modification itself materially and adversely affects the + operation of the network or violates the rules and protocols for + communication across the network. + </para> + <para> + Corresponding Source conveyed, and Installation Information provided, in + accord with this section must be in a format that is publicly documented + (and with an implementation available to the public in source code form), + and must require no special password or key for unpacking, reading or + copying. + </para> + <bridgehead renderas="sect1"> + 7. Additional Terms. + </bridgehead> + <para> + “Additional permissions” are terms that supplement the terms of + this License by making exceptions from one or more of its conditions. + Additional permissions that are applicable to the entire Program shall be + treated as though they were included in this License, to the extent that + they are valid under applicable law. If additional permissions apply only + to part of the Program, that part may be used separately under those + permissions, but the entire Program remains governed by this License + without regard to the additional permissions. + </para> + <para> + When you convey a copy of a covered work, you may at your option remove any + additional permissions from that copy, or from any part of it. (Additional + permissions may be written to require their own removal in certain cases + when you modify the work.) You may place additional permissions on + material, added by you to a covered work, for which you have or can give + appropriate copyright permission. + </para> + <para> + Notwithstanding any other provision of this License, for material you add + to a covered work, you may (if authorized by the copyright holders of that + material) supplement the terms of this License with terms: + </para> + <orderedlist numeration="loweralpha"> + <listitem> + <para> + Disclaiming warranty or limiting liability differently from the terms + of sections 15 and 16 of this License; or + </para> + </listitem> + <listitem> + <para> + Requiring preservation of specified reasonable legal notices or author + attributions in that material or in the Appropriate Legal Notices + displayed by works containing it; or + </para> + </listitem> + <listitem> + <para> + Prohibiting misrepresentation of the origin of that material, or + requiring that modified versions of such material be marked in + reasonable ways as different from the original version; or + </para> + </listitem> + <listitem> + <para> + Limiting the use for publicity purposes of names of licensors or + authors of the material; or + </para> + </listitem> + <listitem> + <para> + Declining to grant rights under trademark law for use of some trade + names, trademarks, or service marks; or + </para> + </listitem> + <listitem> + <para> + Requiring indemnification of licensors and authors of that material by + anyone who conveys the material (or modified versions of it) with + contractual assumptions of liability to the recipient, for any + liability that these contractual assumptions directly impose on those + licensors and authors. + </para> + </listitem> + </orderedlist> + <para> + All other non-permissive additional terms are considered “further + restrictions” within the meaning of section 10. If the Program as + you received it, or any part of it, contains a notice stating that it is + governed by this License along with a term that is a further restriction, + you may remove that term. If a license document contains a further + restriction but permits relicensing or conveying under this License, you + may add to a covered work material governed by the terms of that license + document, provided that the further restriction does not survive such + relicensing or conveying. + </para> + <para> + If you add terms to a covered work in accord with this section, you must + place, in the relevant source files, a statement of the additional terms + that apply to those files, or a notice indicating where to find the + applicable terms. + </para> + <para> + Additional terms, permissive or non-permissive, may be stated in the form + of a separately written license, or stated as exceptions; the above + requirements apply either way. + </para> + <bridgehead renderas="sect1"> + 8. Termination. + </bridgehead> + <para> + You may not propagate or modify a covered work except as expressly provided + under this License. Any attempt otherwise to propagate or modify it is + void, and will automatically terminate your rights under this License + (including any patent licenses granted under the third paragraph of section + 11). + </para> + <para> + However, if you cease all violation of this License, then your license from + a particular copyright holder is reinstated (a) provisionally, unless and + until the copyright holder explicitly and finally terminates your license, + and (b) permanently, if the copyright holder fails to notify you of the + violation by some reasonable means prior to 60 days after the cessation. + </para> + <para> + Moreover, your license from a particular copyright holder is reinstated + permanently if the copyright holder notifies you of the violation by some + reasonable means, this is the first time you have received notice of + violation of this License (for any work) from that copyright holder, and + you cure the violation prior to 30 days after your receipt of the notice. + </para> + <para> + Termination of your rights under this section does not terminate the + licenses of parties who have received copies or rights from you under this + License. If your rights have been terminated and not permanently + reinstated, you do not qualify to receive new licenses for the same + material under section 10. + </para> + <bridgehead renderas="sect1"> + 9. Acceptance Not Required for Having Copies. + </bridgehead> + <para> + You are not required to accept this License in order to receive or run a + copy of the Program. Ancillary propagation of a covered work occurring + solely as a consequence of using peer-to-peer transmission to receive a + copy likewise does not require acceptance. However, nothing other than + this License grants you permission to propagate or modify any covered work. + These actions infringe copyright if you do not accept this License. + Therefore, by modifying or propagating a covered work, you indicate your + acceptance of this License to do so. + </para> + <bridgehead renderas="sect1"> + 10. Automatic Licensing of Downstream Recipients. + </bridgehead> + <para> + Each time you convey a covered work, the recipient automatically receives a + license from the original licensors, to run, modify and propagate that + work, subject to this License. You are not responsible for enforcing + compliance by third parties with this License. + </para> + <para> + An “entity transaction” is a transaction transferring control + of an organization, or substantially all assets of one, or subdividing an + organization, or merging organizations. If propagation of a covered work + results from an entity transaction, each party to that transaction who + receives a copy of the work also receives whatever licenses to the work the + party’s predecessor in interest had or could give under the previous + paragraph, plus a right to possession of the Corresponding Source of the + work from the predecessor in interest, if the predecessor has it or can get + it with reasonable efforts. + </para> + <para> + You may not impose any further restrictions on the exercise of the rights + granted or affirmed under this License. For example, you may not impose a + license fee, royalty, or other charge for exercise of rights granted under + this License, and you may not initiate litigation (including a cross-claim + or counterclaim in a lawsuit) alleging that any patent claim is infringed + by making, using, selling, offering for sale, or importing the Program or + any portion of it. + </para> + <bridgehead renderas="sect1"> + 11. Patents. + </bridgehead> + <para> + A “contributor” is a copyright holder who authorizes use under + this License of the Program or a work on which the Program is based. The + work thus licensed is called the contributor’s “contributor + version”. + </para> + <para> + A contributor’s “essential patent claims” are all patent + claims owned or controlled by the contributor, whether already acquired or + hereafter acquired, that would be infringed by some manner, permitted by + this License, of making, using, or selling its contributor version, but do + not include claims that would be infringed only as a consequence of further + modification of the contributor version. For purposes of this definition, + “control” includes the right to grant patent sublicenses in a + manner consistent with the requirements of this License. + </para> + <para> + Each contributor grants you a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free patent + license under the contributor’s essential patent claims, to make, use, + sell, offer for sale, import and otherwise run, modify and propagate the + contents of its contributor version. + </para> + <para> + In the following three paragraphs, a “patent license” is any + express agreement or commitment, however denominated, not to enforce a + patent (such as an express permission to practice a patent or covenant not + to sue for patent infringement). To “grant” such a patent + license to a party means to make such an agreement or commitment not to + enforce a patent against the party. + </para> + <para> + If you convey a covered work, knowingly relying on a patent license, and the + Corresponding Source of the work is not available for anyone to copy, free + of charge and under the terms of this License, through a publicly available + network server or other readily accessible means, then you must either (1) + cause the Corresponding Source to be so available, or (2) arrange to deprive + yourself of the benefit of the patent license for this particular work, or + (3) arrange, in a manner consistent with the requirements of this License, + to extend the patent license to downstream recipients. “Knowingly + relying” means you have actual knowledge that, but for the patent + license, your conveying the covered work in a country, or your + recipient’s use of the covered work in a country, would infringe one + or more identifiable patents in that country that you have reason to believe + are valid. + </para> + <para> + If, pursuant to or in connection with a single transaction or arrangement, + you convey, or propagate by procuring conveyance of, a covered work, and + grant a patent license to some of the parties receiving the covered work + authorizing them to use, propagate, modify or convey a specific copy of the + covered work, then the patent license you grant is automatically extended to + all recipients of the covered work and works based on it. + </para> + <para> + A patent license is “discriminatory” if it does not include + within the scope of its coverage, prohibits the exercise of, or is + conditioned on the non-exercise of one or more of the rights that are + specifically granted under this License. You may not convey a covered work + if you are a party to an arrangement with a third party that is in the + business of distributing software, under which you make payment to the third + party based on the extent of your activity of conveying the work, and under + which the third party grants, to any of the parties who would receive the + covered work from you, a discriminatory patent license (a) in connection + with copies of the covered work conveyed by you (or copies made from those + copies), or (b) primarily for and in connection with specific products or + compilations that contain the covered work, unless you entered into that + arrangement, or that patent license was granted, prior to 28 March 2007. + </para> + <para> + Nothing in this License shall be construed as excluding or limiting any + implied license or other defenses to infringement that may otherwise be + available to you under applicable patent law. + </para> + <bridgehead renderas="sect1"> + 12. No Surrender of Others’ Freedom. + </bridgehead> + <para> + If conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or + otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not + excuse you from the conditions of this License. If you cannot convey a + covered work so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this + License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you may + not convey it at all. For example, if you agree to terms that obligate you + to collect a royalty for further conveying from those to whom you convey the + Program, the only way you could satisfy both those terms and this License + would be to refrain entirely from conveying the Program. + </para> + <bridgehead renderas="sect1"> + 13.

If the Program does not specify a version number of the + <acronym>GNU</acronym> General Public License, you may choose any version + ever published by the Free Software Foundation. + </para> + <para> + If the Program specifies that a proxy can decide which future versions of + the <acronym>GNU</acronym> General Public License can be used, that + proxy’s public statement of acceptance of a version permanently + authorizes you to choose that version for the Program. + </para> + <para> + Later license versions may give you additional or different permissions. + However, no additional obligations are imposed on any author or copyright + holder as a result of your choosing to follow a later version. + </para> + <bridgehead renderas="sect1"> + 15.

It is safest to + attach them to the start of each source file to most effectively state the + exclusion of warranty; and each file should have at least the + “copyright” line and a pointer to where the full notice is + found. + </para> + <screen> +<replaceable>one line to give the program’s name and a brief idea of what it does.</replaceable> +Copyright (C) <replaceable>year</replaceable> <replaceable>name of author</replaceable> + +This program is free software: you can redistribute it and/or modify +it under the terms of the <acronym>GNU</acronym> General Public License as published by +the Free Software Foundation, either version 3 of the License, 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.
