Appendix: How to Apply These Terms to Your New Programs -

- -

-A. The GNU General Public License -

- -

Version 2, June 1991 -

-
-

59 Temple Place - Suite 330, Boston, MA 02111-1307, USA -

-
-

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

- -

-Preamble - -

- -

-The licenses for most software are designed to take away your freedom to -share and change it. By contrast, the GNU 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. This General Public -License applies to most of the Free Software Foundation's software and to -any other program whose authors commit to using it. (Some other Free -Software Foundation software is covered by the GNU Library General Public -License instead.) You can apply it to your programs, too. - -

-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 this service -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. - -

-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 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 show them these terms so they know 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. - -

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

-The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and -modification follow. - -

-TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND - MODIFICATION - -

- -

-This License 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 derivative work under copyright law: that is to say, a -work containing the Program or a portion of it, either verbatim or with -modifications and/or translated into another language. (Hereinafter, -translation is included without limitation in the term ``modification''.) -Each licensee is addressed as ``you''. - -
-Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are not -covered by this License; they are outside its scope. The act of -running the Program is not restricted, and the output from the Program -is covered only if its contents constitute a work based on the -Program (independent of having been made by running the Program). -Whether that is true depends on what the Program does. - -
-
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 License and to the absence of any warranty; and give any other - recipients of the Program a copy of this License along with the Program. - -
-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. - -
-
-You may modify your copy or copies of the Program or any portion -of it, thus forming a work based on the Program, and copy and -distribute such modifications or work under the terms of Section 1 -above, provided that you also meet all of these conditions: - -
- -
1. -You must cause the modified files to carry prominent notices stating that -you changed the files and the date of any change. - -
  -
2. -You must cause any work that you distribute or publish, that in -whole or in part contains or is derived from the Program or any -part thereof, to be licensed as a whole at no charge to all third -parties under the terms of this License. - -
  -
3. If the modified program normally reads commands interactively -when run, you must cause it, when started running for such -interactive use in the most ordinary 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 -License. (Exception: if the Program itself is interactive but -does not normally print such an announcement, your work based on -the Program is not required to print an announcement.) - -
  -
- -
-These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole. If -identifiable sections of that work are not derived from the Program, -and can be reasonably considered independent and separate works in -themselves, then this License, and its terms, do not apply to those -sections when you distribute them as separate works. But when you -distribute the same sections as part of a whole which is a work based -on the Program, the distribution of the whole must be on the terms of -this License, whose permissions for other licensees extend to the -entire whole, and thus to each and every part regardless of who wrote it. - -
-Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest -your rights to work written entirely by you; rather, the intent is to -exercise the right to control the distribution of derivative or -collective works based on the Program. - -
-In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the Program -with the Program (or with a work based on the Program) on a volume of -a storage or distribution medium does not bring the other work under -the scope of this License. - -
-
You may copy and distribute the Program (or a work based on it, -under Section 2) in object code or executable form under the terms of -Sections 1 and 2 above provided that you also do one of the following: - -
- -
1. -Accompany it with the complete corresponding machine-readable -source code, which must be distributed under the terms of Sections -1 and 2 above on a medium customarily used for software interchange; or, - -
  -
2. -Accompany it with a written offer, valid for at least three -years, to give any third party, for a charge no more than your -cost of physically performing source distribution, a complete -machine-readable copy of the corresponding source code, to be -distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium -customarily used for software interchange; or, - -
  -
3. -Accompany it with the information you received as to the offer -to distribute corresponding source code. (This alternative is -allowed only for noncommercial distribution and only if you -received the program in object code or executable form with such -an offer, in accord with Subsection b above.) - -
  -
- -
-The source code for a work means the preferred form of the work for -making modifications to it. For an executable work, complete source -code means all the source code for all modules it contains, plus any -associated interface definition files, plus the scripts used to -control compilation and installation of the executable. However, as a -special exception, the source code distributed need not include -anything that is normally distributed (in either source or binary -form) with the major components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of the -operating system on which the executable runs, unless that component -itself accompanies the executable. - -
-If distribution of executable or object code is made by offering -access to copy from a designated place, then offering equivalent -access to copy the source code from the same place counts as -distribution of the source code, even though third parties are not -compelled to copy the source along with the object code. - -
-
You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the Program -except as expressly provided under this License. Any attempt -otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense or distribute the Program is -void, and will automatically terminate your rights under this License. -However, parties who have received copies, or rights, from you under -this License will not have their licenses terminated so long as such -parties remain in full compliance. - -
-
You are not required to accept this License, since you have not -signed it. However, nothing else grants you permission to modify or -distribute the Program or its derivative works. These actions are -prohibited by law if you do not accept this License. Therefore, by -modifying or distributing 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 for copying, distributing or modifying -the Program or works based on it. - -
-
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. -You are not responsible for enforcing compliance by third parties to -this License. - -
-
If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent -infringement or for any other reason (not limited to patent issues), -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 -distribute so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this -License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you -may not distribute the Program at all. For example, if a patent -license would not permit royalty-free redistribution of the Program by -all those who receive copies directly or indirectly through you, then -the only way you could satisfy both it and this License would be to -refrain entirely from distribution of the Program. - -
-If any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable under -any particular circumstance, the balance of the section is intended to -apply and the section as a whole is intended to apply in other -circumstances. - -
-It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe any -patents or other property right claims or to contest validity of any -such claims; this section has the sole purpose of protecting the -integrity of the free software distribution system, which is -implemented by public license practices. Many people have made -generous contributions to the wide range of software distributed -through that system in reliance on consistent application of that -system; it is up to the author/donor to decide if he or she is willing -to distribute software through any other system and a licensee cannot -impose that choice. - -
-This section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is believed to -be a consequence of the rest of this License. - -
-
If the distribution and/or use of the Program is restricted in -certain countries either by patents or by copyrighted interfaces, the -original copyright holder who places the Program under this License -may add an explicit geographical distribution limitation excluding -those countries, so that distribution is permitted only in or among -countries not thus excluded. In such case, this License incorporates -the limitation as if written in the body of this License. - -
-
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 this 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 -this License, you may choose any version ever published by the Free Software -Foundation. - -
-
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 - - -
- -
-
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. - -
-
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. - -

-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 the public, 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) yyyy 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 2 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. 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., 59 Temple Place - Suite 330, Boston, MA 02111-1307, 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) yyyy 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 is a sample; alter the names: - -

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

- -

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