23 <H2>Preamble</H2>
|
joachim99@69
|
24
|
joachim99@69
|
25 <P>The licenses for most software are designed to take away your
|
joachim99@69
|
26 freedom to share and change it. By contrast, the GNU General Public
|
joachim99@69
|
27 License is intended to guarantee your freedom to share and change free
|
joachim99@69
|
28 software--to make sure the software is free for all its users. This
|
joachim99@69
|
29 General Public License applies to most of the Free Software
|
joachim99@69
|
30 Foundation's software and to any other program whose authors commit to
|
joachim99@69
|
31 using it. (Some other Free Software Foundation software is covered by
|
joachim99@69
|
32 the GNU Library General Public License instead.) You can apply it to
|
joachim99@69
|
33 your programs, too.</P>
|
joachim99@69
|
34
|
joachim99@69
|
35 <P>When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not
|
joachim99@69
|
36 price. Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that you
|
joachim99@69
|
37 have the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge for
|
joachim99@69
|
38 this service if you wish), that you receive source code or can get it
|
joachim99@69
|
39 if you want it, that you can change the software or use pieces of it
|
joachim99@69
|
40 in new free programs; and that you know you can do these things.</P>
|
joachim99@69
|
41
|
joachim99@69
|
42 <P>To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that forbid
|
joachim99@69
|
43 anyone to deny you these rights or to ask you to surrender the rights.
|
joachim99@69
|
44 These restrictions translate to certain responsibilities for you if you
|
joachim99@69
|
45 distribute copies of the software, or if you modify it.</P>
|
joachim99@69
|
46
|
joachim99@69
|
47 <P>For example, if you distribute copies of such a program, whether
|
joachim99@69
|
48 gratis or for a fee, you must give the recipients all the rights that
|
joachim99@69
|
49 you have. You must make sure that they, too, receive or can get the
|
joachim99@69
|
50 source code. And you must show them these terms so they know their
|
joachim99@69
|
51 rights.</P>
|
joachim99@69
|
52
|
joachim99@69
|
53 <P>We protect your rights with two steps: (1) copyright the software, and
|
joachim99@69
|
54 (2) offer you this license which gives you legal permission to copy,
|
joachim99@69
|
55 distribute and/or modify the software.</P>
|
joachim99@69
|
56
|
joachim99@69
|
57 <P>Also, for each author's protection and ours, we want to make certain
|
joachim99@69
|
58 that everyone understands that there is no warranty for this free
|
joachim99@69
|
59 software. If the software is modified by someone else and passed on, we
|
joachim99@69
|
60 want its recipients to know that what they have is not the original, so
|
joachim99@69
|
61 that any problems introduced by others will not reflect on the original
|
joachim99@69
|
62 authors' reputations.</P>
|
joachim99@69
|
63
|
joachim99@69
|
64 <P>Finally, any free program is threatened constantly by software
|
joachim99@69
|
65 patents. We wish to avoid the danger that redistributors of a free
|
joachim99@69
|
66 program will individually obtain patent licenses, in effect making the
|
joachim99@69
|
67 program proprietary. To prevent this, we have made it clear that any
|
joachim99@69
|
68 patent must be licensed for everyone's free use or not licensed at all.</P>
|
joachim99@69
|
69
|
joachim99@69
|
70 <P>The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and
|
joachim99@69
|
71 modification follow.</P>

74 Terms And Conditions For Copying, Distribution And Modification</A></H2>
|
joachim99@69
|
75
|
joachim99@69
|
76 <P>0. This License applies to any program or other work which contains
|
joachim99@69
|
77 a notice placed by the copyright holder saying it may be distributed
|
joachim99@69
|
78 under the terms of this General Public License. The "Program", below,
|
joachim99@69
|
79 refers to any such program or work, and a "work based on the Program"
|
joachim99@69
|
80 means either the Program or any derivative work under copyright law:
|
joachim99@69
|
81 that is to say, a work containing the Program or a portion of it,
|
joachim99@69
|
82 either verbatim or with modifications and/or translated into another
|
joachim99@69
|
83 language. (Hereinafter, translation is included without limitation in
|
joachim99@69
|
84 the term "modification".) Each licensee is addressed as "you".</P>
|
joachim99@69
|
85
|
joachim99@69
|
86 <P>Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are not
|
joachim99@69
|
87 covered by this License; they are outside its scope. The act of
|
joachim99@69
|
88 running the Program is not restricted, and the output from the Program
|
joachim99@69
|
89 is covered only if its contents constitute a work based on the
|
joachim99@69
|
90 Program (independent of having been made by running the Program).
|
joachim99@69
|
91 Whether that is true depends on what the Program does.</P>
|
joachim99@69
|
92
|
joachim99@69
|
93 <P>1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Program's
|
joachim99@69
|
94 source code as you receive it, in any medium, provided that you
|
joachim99@69
|
95 conspicuously and appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate
|
joachim99@69
|
96 copyright notice and disclaimer of warranty; keep intact all the
|
joachim99@69
|
97 notices that refer to this License and to the absence of any warranty;
|
joachim99@69
|
98 and give any other recipients of the Program a copy of this License
|
joachim99@69
|
99 along with the Program.</P>
|
joachim99@69
|
100
|
joachim99@69
|
101 <P>You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy, and
|
joachim99@69
|
102 you may at your option offer warranty protection in exchange for a fee.</P>
|
joachim99@69
|
103
|
joachim99@69
|
104 <P>2. You may modify your copy or copies of the Program or any portion
|
joachim99@69
|
105 of it, thus forming a work based on the Program, and copy and
|
joachim99@69
|
106 distribute such modifications or work under the terms of Section 1
|
joachim99@69
|
107 above, provided that you also meet all of these conditions:</P>

|
joachim99@69

110 <LI>
|
joachim99@69

111 <P>You must cause the modified files to carry prominent notices

joachim99@69

112 stating that you changed the files and the date of any change.</P>

joachim99@69

joachim99@69

116 <P>You must cause any work that you distribute or publish, that in
|
joachim99@69
|
117 whole or in part contains or is derived from the Program or any
|
joachim99@69
|
118 part thereof, to be licensed as a whole at no charge to all third

joachim99@69

119 parties under the terms of this License.</P>

121
|
joachim99@69

122 <LI>
|
joachim99@69
|
123 <P>If the modified program normally reads commands interactively
|
joachim99@69
|
124 when run, you must cause it, when started running for such
|
joachim99@69
|
125 interactive use in the most ordinary way, to print or display an
|
joachim99@69
|
126 announcement including an appropriate copyright notice and a
|
joachim99@69
|
127 notice that there is no warranty (or else, saying that you provide
|
joachim99@69
|
128 a warranty) and that users may redistribute the program under
|
joachim99@69
|
129 these conditions, and telling the user how to view a copy of this
|
joachim99@69
|
130 License. (Exception: if the Program itself is interactive but
|
joachim99@69
|
131 does not normally print such an announcement, your work based on
|
joachim99@69
|
132 the Program is not required to print an announcement.)</P>

|
134 </OL>
|
joachim99@69
|
135
|
joachim99@69
|
136 <P>These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole. If
|
joachim99@69
|
137 identifiable sections of that work are not derived from the Program,
|
joachim99@69
|
138 and can be reasonably considered independent and separate works in
|
joachim99@69
|
139 themselves, then this License, and its terms, do not apply to those
|
joachim99@69
|
140 sections when you distribute them as separate works. But when you
|
joachim99@69
|
141 distribute the same sections as part of a whole which is a work based
|
joachim99@69
|
142 on the Program, the distribution of the whole must be on the terms of
|
joachim99@69
|
143 this License, whose permissions for other licensees extend to the
|
joachim99@69
|
144 entire whole, and thus to each and every part regardless of who wrote it.</P>
|
joachim99@69
|
145
|
joachim99@69
|
146 <P>Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest
|
joachim99@69
|
147 your rights to work written entirely by you; rather, the intent is to
|
joachim99@69
|
148 exercise the right to control the distribution of derivative or
|
joachim99@69
|
149 collective works based on the Program.</P>
|
joachim99@69
|
150
|
joachim99@69
|
151 <P>In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the Program
|
joachim99@69
|
152 with the Program (or with a work based on the Program) on a volume of
|
joachim99@69
|
153 a storage or distribution medium does not bring the other work under
|
joachim99@69
|
154 the scope of this License.</P>
|
joachim99@69
|
155
|
joachim99@69
|
156 <P>3. You may copy and distribute the Program (or a work based on it,
|
joachim99@69
|
157 under Section 2) in object code or executable form under the terms of
|
joachim99@69
|
158 Sections 1 and 2 above provided that you also do one of the following:</P>

joachim99@69

171 machine-readable copy of the corresponding source code, to be

172 distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium

joachim99@69

|
joachim99@69
|
179 allowed only for noncommercial distribution and only if you
|
joachim99@69

180 received the program in object code or executable form with such

joachim99@69

181 an offer, in accord with Subsection b above.)</P>

|
183 </OL>
|
joachim99@69
|
184
|
joachim99@69
|
185 <P>The source code for a work means the preferred form of the work for
|
joachim99@69
|
186 making modifications to it. For an executable work, complete source
|
joachim99@69
|
187 code means all the source code for all modules it contains, plus any
|
joachim99@69
|
188 associated interface definition files, plus the scripts used to
|
joachim99@69
|
189 control compilation and installation of the executable. However, as a
|
joachim99@69
|
190 special exception, the source code distributed need not include
|
joachim99@69
|
191 anything that is normally distributed (in either source or binary
|
joachim99@69
|
192 form) with the major components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of the
|
joachim99@69
|
193 operating system on which the executable runs, unless that component
|
joachim99@69
|
194 itself accompanies the executable.</P>
|
joachim99@69
|
195
|
joachim99@69
|
196 <P>If distribution of executable or object code is made by offering
|
joachim99@69
|
197 access to copy from a designated place, then offering equivalent
|
joachim99@69
|
198 access to copy the source code from the same place counts as
|
joachim99@69
|
199 distribution of the source code, even though third parties are not
|
joachim99@69
|
200 compelled to copy the source along with the object code.</P>
|
joachim99@69
|
201
|
joachim99@69
|
202 <P>4. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the Program
|
joachim99@69
|
203 except as expressly provided under this License. Any attempt
|
joachim99@69
|
204 otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense or distribute the Program is
|
joachim99@69
|
205 void, and will automatically terminate your rights under this License.
|
joachim99@69
|
206 However, parties who have received copies, or rights, from you under
|
joachim99@69
|
207 this License will not have their licenses terminated so long as such
|
joachim99@69
|
208 parties remain in full compliance.</P>
|
joachim99@69
|
209
|
joachim99@69
|
210 <P>5. You are not required to accept this License, since you have not
|
joachim99@69
|
211 signed it. However, nothing else grants you permission to modify or
|
joachim99@69
|
212 distribute the Program or its derivative works. These actions are
|
joachim99@69
|
213 prohibited by law if you do not accept this License. Therefore, by
|
joachim99@69
|
214 modifying or distributing the Program (or any work based on the
|
joachim99@69
|
215 Program), you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so, and
|
joachim99@69
|
216 all its terms and conditions for copying, distributing or modifying
|
joachim99@69
|
217 the Program or works based on it.</P>
|
joachim99@69
|
218
|
joachim99@69
|
219 <P>6. Each time you redistribute the Program (or any work based on the
|
joachim99@69
|
220 Program), the recipient automatically receives a license from the
|
joachim99@69
|
221 original licensor to copy, distribute or modify the Program subject to
|
joachim99@69
|
222 these terms and conditions. You may not impose any further
|
joachim99@69
|
223 restrictions on the recipients' exercise of the rights granted herein.
|
joachim99@69
|
224 You are not responsible for enforcing compliance by third parties to
|
joachim99@69
|
225 this License.</P>
|
joachim99@69
|
226
|
joachim99@69
|
227 <P>7. If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent
|
joachim99@69
|
228 infringement or for any other reason (not limited to patent issues),
|
joachim99@69
|
229 conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or
|
joachim99@69
|
230 otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not
|
joachim99@69
|
231 excuse you from the conditions of this License. If you cannot
|
joachim99@69
|
232 distribute so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this
|
joachim99@69
|
233 License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you
|
joachim99@69
|
234 may not distribute the Program at all. For example, if a patent
|
joachim99@69
|
235 license would not permit royalty-free redistribution of the Program by
|
joachim99@69
|
236 all those who receive copies directly or indirectly through you, then
|
joachim99@69
|
237 the only way you could satisfy both it and this License would be to
|
joachim99@69
|
238 refrain entirely from distribution of the Program.</P>
|
joachim99@69
|
239
|
joachim99@69
|
240 <P>If any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable under
|
joachim99@69
|
241 any particular circumstance, the balance of the section is intended to
|
joachim99@69
|
242 apply and the section as a whole is intended to apply in other
|
joachim99@69
|
243 circumstances.</P>
|
joachim99@69
|
244
|
joachim99@69
|
245 <P>It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe any
|
joachim99@69
|
246 patents or other property right claims or to contest validity of any
|
joachim99@69
|
247 such claims; this section has the sole purpose of protecting the
|
joachim99@69
|
248 integrity of the free software distribution system, which is
|
joachim99@69
|
249 implemented by public license practices. Many people have made
|
joachim99@69
|
250 generous contributions to the wide range of software distributed
|
joachim99@69
|
251 through that system in reliance on consistent application of that
|
joachim99@69
|
252 system; it is up to the author/donor to decide if he or she is willing
|
joachim99@69
|
253 to distribute software through any other system and a licensee cannot
|
joachim99@69
|
254 impose that choice.</P>
|
joachim99@69
|
255
|
joachim99@69
|
256 <P>This section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is believed to
|
joachim99@69
|
257 be a consequence of the rest of this License.</P>
|
joachim99@69
|
258
|
joachim99@69
|
259 <P>8. If the distribution and/or use of the Program is restricted in
|

272 <P>Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the Program

275 either of that version or of any later version published by the Free

276 Software Foundation. If the Program does not specify a version number of

|
joachim99@69
|
315
|
joachim99@69
|
316 <p>If you develop a new program, and you want it to be of the greatest
|
joachim99@69
|
317 possible use to the public, the best way to achieve this is to make it
|
joachim99@69
|
318 free software which everyone can redistribute and change under these
|
joachim99@69
|
319 terms.</p>
|
joachim99@69
|
320
|
joachim99@69
|
321
|
joachim99@69
|
322 <p>To do so, attach the following notices to the program. It is
|
joachim99@69
|
323 safest to attach them to the start of each source file to most
|
joachim99@69
|
324 effectively convey the exclusion of warranty; and each file should
|
joachim99@69
|
325 have at least the "copyright" line and a pointer to where the full
|
joachim99@69
|
326 notice is found.</p>
