+
+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
+
+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. 
+
+7. 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. 
+
+8. 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. 
+
+9. 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. 
+
+10. 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
+
+11. 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. 
+
+12. 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.
