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 - * vmodify 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 - * 0. 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. - * 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 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. - * 2. 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: - * a) You must cause the modified files to carry prominent notices stating that - * you changed the files and the date of any change. - * b) 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. - * c) 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. - * 3. 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: - * a) 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, - * b) 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, - * c) 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. - * 4. 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. - * 5. 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. - * 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. You are not responsible for enforcing compliance by third - * parties to this License. - * + * GNU General Public License - GNU Project - + * Free Software Foundation (FSF)GNU + * General Public License + * + * What to do if you see a possible GPL violation + * Translations of the GPL + * + * Table of Contents + * GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE + * Preamble + * TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION + * How to Apply These Terms to Your New Programs + * + * + * GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE + * Version 2, June 1991 + * Copyright (C) 1989, 1991 Free Software Foundation, Inc. + * 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.

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 an 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.

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) year 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.
