    66 Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies 
    77 of this license document, but changing it is not allowed. 
     
    99                            Preamble 
    1010 
    11   The licenses for most software are designed to take away your 
    12 freedom to share and change it.  By contrast, the GNU General Public 
    13 License is intended to guarantee your freedom to share and change free 
    14 software--to make sure the software is free for all its users.  This 
    15 General Public License applies to most of the Free Software 
    16 Foundation's software and to any other program whose authors commit to 
    17 using it.  (Some other Free Software Foundation software is covered by 
    18 the GNU Library General Public License instead.)  You can apply it to 
     11  The GNU General Public License is a free, copyleft license for 
     12software and other kinds of works. 
     13 
     14  The licenses for most software and other practical works are designed 
     15to take away your freedom to share and change the works.  By contrast, 
     16the GNU General Public License is intended to guarantee your freedom to 
     17share and change all versions of a program--to make sure it remains free 
     18software for all its users.  We, the Free Software Foundation, use the 
     19GNU General Public License for most of our software; it applies also to 
     20any other work released this way by its authors.  You can apply it to 
    1921your programs, too. 
    2022 
     
    2224price.  Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that you 
    2325have the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge for 
    24 this service if you wish), that you receive source code or can get it 
    25 if you want it, that you can change the software or use pieces of it 
    26 in new free programs; and that you know you can do these things. 
    27  
    28   To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that forbid 
    29 anyone to deny you these rights or to ask you to surrender the rights. 
    30 These restrictions translate to certain responsibilities for you if you 
    31 distribute copies of the software, or if you modify it. 
     26them if you wish), that you receive source code or can get it if you 
     27want it, that you can change the software or use pieces of it in new 
     28free programs, and that you know you can do these things. 
     29 
     30  To protect your rights, we need to prevent others from denying you 
     31these rights or asking you to surrender the rights.  Therefore, you have 
     32certain responsibilities if you distribute copies of the software, or if 
     33you modify it: responsibilities to respect the freedom of others. 
    3234 
    3335  For example, if you distribute copies of such a program, whether 
    34 gratis or for a fee, you must give the recipients all the rights that 
    35 you have.  You must make sure that they, too, receive or can get the 
    36 source code.  And you must show them these terms so they know their 
    37 rights. 
    38  
    39   We protect your rights with two steps: (1) copyright the software, and 
    40 (2) offer you this license which gives you legal permission to copy, 
    41 distribute and/or modify the software. 
    42  
    43   Also, for each author's protection and ours, we want to make certain 
    44 that everyone understands that there is no warranty for this free 
    45 software.  If the software is modified by someone else and passed on, we 
    46 want its recipients to know that what they have is not the original, so 
    47 that any problems introduced by others will not reflect on the original 
    48 authors' reputations. 
    49  
    50   Finally, any free program is threatened constantly by software 
    51 patents.  We wish to avoid the danger that redistributors of a free 
    52 program will individually obtain patent licenses, in effect making the 
    53 program proprietary.  To prevent this, we have made it clear that any 
    54 patent must be licensed for everyone's free use or not licensed at all. 
     36gratis or for a fee, you must pass on to the recipients the same 
     37freedoms that you received.  You must make sure that they, too, receive 
     38or can get the source code.  And you must show them these terms so they 
     39know their rights. 
     40 
     41  Developers that use the GNU GPL protect your rights with two steps: 
     42(1) assert copyright on the software, and (2) offer you this License 
     43giving you legal permission to copy, distribute and/or modify it. 
     44 
     45  For the developers' and authors' protection, the GPL clearly explains 
     46that there is no warranty for this free software.  For both users' and 
     47authors' sake, the GPL requires that modified versions be marked as 
     48changed, so that their problems will not be attributed erroneously to 
     49authors of previous versions. 
     50 
     51  Some devices are designed to deny users access to install or run 
     52modified versions of the software inside them, although the manufacturer 
     53can do so.  This is fundamentally incompatible with the aim of 
     54protecting users' freedom to change the software.  The systematic 
     55pattern of such abuse occurs in the area of products for individuals to 
     56use, which is precisely where it is most unacceptable.  Therefore, we 
     57have designed this version of the GPL to prohibit the practice for those 
     58products.  If such problems arise substantially in other domains, we 
     59stand ready to extend this provision to those domains in future versions 
     60of the GPL, as needed to protect the freedom of users. 
     61 
     62  Finally, every program is threatened constantly by software patents. 
     63States should not allow patents to restrict development and use of 
     64software on general-purpose computers, but in those that do, we wish to 
     65avoid the special danger that patents applied to a free program could 
     66make it effectively proprietary.  To prevent this, the GPL assures that 
     67patents cannot be used to render the program non-free. 
    5568 
    5669  The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and 
    5770modification follow. 
    58   
    59                     GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE 
    60    TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION 
    61  
    62   0. This License applies to any program or other work which contains 
    63 a notice placed by the copyright holder saying it may be distributed 
    64 under the terms of this General Public License.  The "Program", below, 
    65 refers to any such program or work, and a "work based on the Program" 
    66 means either the Program or any derivative work under copyright law: 
    67 that is to say, a work containing the Program or a portion of it, 
    68 either verbatim or with modifications and/or translated into another 
    69 language.  (Hereinafter, translation is included without limitation in 
    70 the term "modification".)  Each licensee is addressed as "you". 
    71  
    72 Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are not 
    73 covered by this License; they are outside its scope.  The act of 
    74 running the Program is not restricted, and the output from the Program 
    75 is covered only if its contents constitute a work based on the 
    76 Program (independent of having been made by running the Program). 
    77 Whether that is true depends on what the Program does. 
    78  
    79   1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Program's 
    80 source code as you receive it, in any medium, provided that you 
    81 conspicuously and appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate 
    82 copyright notice and disclaimer of warranty; keep intact all the 
    83 notices that refer to this License and to the absence of any warranty; 
    84 and give any other recipients of the Program a copy of this License 
    85 along with the Program. 
    86  
    87 You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy, and 
    88 you may at your option offer warranty protection in exchange for a fee. 
    89  
    90   2. You may modify your copy or copies of the Program or any portion 
    91 of it, thus forming a work based on the Program, and copy and 
    92 distribute such modifications or work under the terms of Section 1 
    93 above, provided that you also meet all of these conditions: 
    94  
    95     a) You must cause the modified files to carry prominent notices 
    96     stating that you changed the files and the date of any change. 
    97  
    98     b) You must cause any work that you distribute or publish, that in 
    99     whole or in part contains or is derived from the Program or any 
    100     part thereof, to be licensed as a whole at no charge to all third 
    101     parties under the terms of this License. 
    102  
    103     c) If the modified program normally reads commands interactively 
    104     when run, you must cause it, when started running for such 
    105     interactive use in the most ordinary way, to print or display an 
    106     announcement including an appropriate copyright notice and a 
    107     notice that there is no warranty (or else, saying that you provide 
    108     a warranty) and that users may redistribute the program under 
    109     these conditions, and telling the user how to view a copy of this 
    110     License.  (Exception: if the Program itself is interactive but 
    111     does not normally print such an announcement, your work based on 
    112     the Program is not required to print an announcement.) 
    113   
    114 These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole.  If 
    115 identifiable sections of that work are not derived from the Program, 
    116 and can be reasonably considered independent and separate works in 
    117 themselves, then this License, and its terms, do not apply to those 
    118 sections when you distribute them as separate works.  But when you 
    119 distribute the same sections as part of a whole which is a work based 
    120 on the Program, the distribution of the whole must be on the terms of 
    121 this License, whose permissions for other licensees extend to the 
    122 entire whole, and thus to each and every part regardless of who wrote it. 
    123  
    124 Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest 
    125 your rights to work written entirely by you; rather, the intent is to 
    126 exercise the right to control the distribution of derivative or 
    127 collective works based on the Program. 
    128  
    129 In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the Program 
    130 with the Program (or with a work based on the Program) on a volume of 
    131 a storage or distribution medium does not bring the other work under 
    132 the scope of this License. 
    133  
    134   3. You may copy and distribute the Program (or a work based on it, 
    135 under Section 2) in object code or executable form under the terms of 
    136 Sections 1 and 2 above provided that you also do one of the following: 
    137  
    138     a) Accompany it with the complete corresponding machine-readable 
    139     source code, which must be distributed under the terms of Sections 
    140     1 and 2 above on a medium customarily used for software interchange; or, 
    141  
    142     b) Accompany it with a written offer, valid for at least three 
    143     years, to give any third party, for a charge no more than your 
    144     cost of physically performing source distribution, a complete 
    145     machine-readable copy of the corresponding source code, to be 
    146     distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium 
    147     customarily used for software interchange; or, 
    148  
    149     c) Accompany it with the information you received as to the offer 
    150     to distribute corresponding source code.  (This alternative is 
    151     allowed only for noncommercial distribution and only if you 
    152     received the program in object code or executable form with such 
    153     an offer, in accord with Subsection b above.) 
    154  
    155 The source code for a work means the preferred form of the work for 
    156 making modifications to it.  For an executable work, complete source 
    157 code means all the source code for all modules it contains, plus any 
    158 associated interface definition files, plus the scripts used to 
    159 control compilation and installation of the executable.  However, as a 
    160 special exception, the source code distributed need not include 
    161 anything that is normally distributed (in either source or binary 
    162 form) with the major components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of the 
    163 operating system on which the executable runs, unless that component 
    164 itself accompanies the executable. 
    165  
    166 If distribution of executable or object code is made by offering 
    167 access to copy from a designated place, then offering equivalent 
    168 access to copy the source code from the same place counts as 
    169 distribution of the source code, even though third parties are not 
    170 compelled to copy the source along with the object code. 
    171   
    172   4. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the Program 
    173 except as expressly provided under this License.  Any attempt 
    174 otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense or distribute the Program is 
    175 void, and will automatically terminate your rights under this License. 
    176 However, parties who have received copies, or rights, from you under 
    177 this License will not have their licenses terminated so long as such 
    178 parties remain in full compliance. 
    179  
    180   5. You are not required to accept this License, since you have not 
    181 signed it.  However, nothing else grants you permission to modify or 
    182 distribute the Program or its derivative works.  These actions are 
    183 prohibited by law if you do not accept this License.  Therefore, by 
    184 modifying or distributing the Program (or any work based on the 
    185 Program), you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so, and 
    186 all its terms and conditions for copying, distributing or modifying 
    187 the Program or works based on it. 
    188  
    189   6. Each time you redistribute the Program (or any work based on the 
    190 Program), the recipient automatically receives a license from the 
    191 original licensor to copy, distribute or modify the Program subject to 
    192 these terms and conditions.  You may not impose any further 
    193 restrictions on the recipients' exercise of the rights granted herein.
