TERMS AND CONDITIONSFOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION ThisLicense
appliesto anyprogram or other workwhich containsa notice placed bythe
copyright holder saying it maybe distributed under the termsof
thisGeneralPublic License. The “Program”, below, refersto anysuch program or
work, and a “workbased on the Program” means either the Program or
anyderivative workunder copyright law: that isto say, a workcontaining the
Program or a portion of it, either verbatim or with modificationsand/or
translated into another language. (Hereinafter, translation isincluded without
limitation in the term “modification”.) Each licensee isaddressed as”you”.
Activitiesother than copying, distribution and modification are not covered
bythisLicense; theyare outside itsscope. The act of running the Program isnot
restricted, and the output from the Program iscovered onlyif
itscontentsconstitute a workbased on the Program (independent of having been
made byrunning the Program). Whether that istrue dependson what the Program
does. 1. You maycopyand distribute verbatim copiesof the Program’ssource code
asyou receive it, in anymedium, provided that you conspicuously and
appropriatelypublish on each copyan appropriate copyright notice and
disclaimer of warranty; keep intact allthe noticesthat refer to this
26
License and to the absence of anywarranty; and give anyother recipientsof the
Program a copyof thisLicense along with the Program. You maycharge a fee for
the physicalact of transferring a copy, and you mayat your option offer
warrantyprotection in exchange for a fee. 2. You maymodifyyour copyor copiesof
the Program or anyportion of it, thusforming a workbased on the Program, and
copyand distribute such modificationsor workunder the termsof Section 1 above,
provided that you also meet allof these conditions: a) You must cause the
modified filesto carryprominent noticesstating that you changed the filesand
the date of anychange. b) You must cause anyworkthat you distribute or
publish, that in whole or in part containsor isderived from the Program or
anypart thereof, to be licensed asa whole at no charge to allthird
partiesunder the termsof thisLicense. c) If the modified program
normallyreadscommandsinteractivelywhen run, you must cause it, when started
running for such interactive use in the most ordinaryway, to print or
displayan announcement including an appropriate copyright notice and a notice
that there isno warranty(or else, saying that you provide a warranty) and that
usersmayredistribute the program under these conditions, and telling the user
how to view a copyof thisLicense. (Exception: if the Program itself
isinteractive but doesnot normallyprint such an announcement, your workbased
on the Program isnot required to print an announcement.) These
requirementsapplyto the modified workasa whole. If identifiable sectionsof
that workare not derived from the Program, and can be reasonablyconsidered
independent and separate worksin themselves, then thisLicense, and itsterms,
do not applyto those sectionswhen you distribute them asseparate works. But
when you distribute the same sectionsaspart of a whole which isa workbased on
the Program, the distribution of the whole must be on the termsof thisLicense,
whose permissionsfor other licenseesextend to the entire whole, and thusto
each and everypart regardlessof who wrote it.. Thus, it isnot the intent of
thissection to claim rightsor contest your rightsto workwritten entirelybyyou;
rather, the intent isto exercise the right to controlthe distribution of
derivative or collective worksbased on the Program. In addition, mere
aggregation of another worknot based on the Program with the Program (or with
a workbased on the Program) on a volume of a storage or distribution medium
doesnot bring the other workunder the scope of thisLicense. 3. You maycopyand
distribute the Program (or a workbased on it, under Section 2) in object code
or executable form under the termsof Sections1 and 2 above provided that you
also do one of the following: a) Accompanyit with the complete corresponding
machine-readable source code, which must be distributed under the termsof
Sections1 and 2 above on a medium customarilyused for software interchange;
or, b) Accompanyit with a written offer, valid for at least three years, to
give anythird party, for a charge no more than your cost of physically
performing source distribution, a complete machine-readable copyof the
corresponding source code, to be distributed under the termsof Sections1 and 2
above on a medium customarilyused for software interchange; or, c) Accompanyit
with the information you received asto the offer to distribute corresponding
source code. (Thisalternative isallowed onlyfor noncommercialdistribution and
onlyif you received the program in object code or executable form with such an
offer, in accord with Subsection b above.) Source code for a workmeansthe
preferred form of the workfor making modificationsto it. For an executable
work, complete source code meansallthe source code for allmodulesit contains,
plusanyassociated interface definition files, plusthe scriptsused to
controlcompilation and installation of the executable. However, asa
specialexception, the source code distributed need not include anything that
isnormallydistributed (in either source or binaryform) with the major
components(compiler, kernel, and so on) of the operating system on which the
executable runs, unlessthat component itself accompaniesthe executable. If
distribution of executable or object code ismade byoffering accessto copyfrom
a designated place, then offering equivalent accessto copythe source code from
the same place countsasdistribution of the source code, even though third
partiesare not compelled to copythe source along with the object code. 4. You
maynot copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the Program except
asexpresslyprovided under thisLicense. Anyattempt otherwise to copy, modify,
sublicense or distribute the Program isvoid, and willautomaticallyterminate
your rightsunder thisLicense. However, partieswho have received copies, or
rights, from you under thisLicense willnot have their licensesterminated so
long assuch partiesremain in full compliance. 5. You are not required to
accept thisLicense, since you have not signed it. However, nothing else
grantsyou permission to modifyor distribute the Program or itsderivative
works. These actionsare prohibited bylaw if you do not accept thisLicense.
Therefore, bymodifying or distributing the Program (or anyworkbased on the
Program), you indicate your acceptance of thisLicense to do so, and
allitstermsand conditionsfor copying, distributing or modifying the Program or
worksbased on it. 6. Each time you redistribute the Program (or anyworkbased
on the Program), the recipient automaticallyreceivesa license from the
original licensor to copy, distribute or modifythe Program subject to these
termsand conditions. You maynot impose anyfurther restrictionson the
recipients’ exercise of the rightsgranted herein. You are not responsible for
enforcing compliance bythird partiesto thisLicense.. 7. If, asa consequence of
a court judgment or allegation of patent infringement or for anyother reason
(not limited to patent issues), conditions are imposed on you (whether bycourt
order, agreement or otherwise) that contradict the conditionsof thisLicense,
theydo not excuse you from the conditionsof thisLicense. If you cannot
distribute so asto satisfysimultaneouslyyour obligationsunder thisLicense and
anyother pertinent
27
obligations, then asa consequence you maynot distribute the Program at all.
For example, if a patent license would not permit royalty-free redistribution
of the Program byallthose who receive copiesdirectlyor indirectlythrough you,
then the onlywayyou could satisfyboth it and this License would be to refrain
entirelyfrom distribution of the Program. If anyportion of thissection isheld
invalid or unenforceable under anyparticular circumstance, the balance of the
section isintended to apply and the section asa whole isintended to applyin
other circumstances. It isnot the purpose of thissection to induce you to
infringe anypatentsor other propertyright claimsor to contest validityof
anysuch claims; this section hasthe sole purpose of protecting the integrityof
the free software distribution system, which isimplemented bypublic license
practices. Manypeople have made generouscontributionsto the wide range of
software distributed through that system in reliance on consistent application
of that system; it isup to the author/donor to decide if he or she iswilling
to distribute software through anyother system and a licensee cannot impose
that choice. Thissection isintended to make thoroughlyclear what isbelieved to
be a consequence of the rest of thisLicense. 8. If the distribution and/or use
of the Program isrestricted in certain countrieseither bypatentsor
bycopyrighted interfaces, the originalcopyright holder who placesthe Program
under thisLicense mayadd an explicit geographicaldistribution limitation
excluding those countries, so that distribution ispermitted onlyin or among
countriesnot thusexcluded. In such case, thisLicense incorporatesthe
limitation asif written in the body of thisLicense. 9. The Free Software
Foundation maypublish revised and/or new versionsof the GeneralPublic License
from time to time. Such new versionswill be similar in spirit to the present
version, but maydiffer in detailto addressnew problemsor concerns. Each
version isgiven a distinguishing version number. If the Program specifiesa
version number of thisLicense which appliesto it and “anylater version”, you
have the option of following the termsand conditionseither of that version or
of anylater version published bythe Free Software Foundation. If the Program
doesnot specifya version number of thisLicense, you maychoose anyversion ever
published bythe Free Software Foundation. 10. If you wish to incorporate
partsof the Program into other free programswhose distribution conditionsare
different, write to the author to ask for permission. For software which
iscopyrighted bythe Free Software Foundation, write to the Free Software
Foundation; we sometimesmake exceptionsfor this. Our decision willbe guided
bythe two goalsof preserving the free statusof allderivativesof 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
WARRANTYFOR THE PROGRAM, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW. EXCEPT
WHEN OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERSAND/OR OTHER
PARTIESPROVIDE THE PROGRAM “AS IS” WITHOUT WARRANTYOF ANY KIND, EITHER
EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIESOF
MERCHANTABILITYAND FITNESSFOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. THE ENTIRE RISKAS TO THE
QUALITYAND PERFORMANCE OF THE PROGRAM IS WITH YOU. SHOULD THE PROGRAM PROVE
DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE COST OF ALL NECESSARYSERVICING, REPAIR OR
CORRECTION.
12. IN NO EVENT UNLESSREQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN WRITING WILL
ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MAY MODIFYAND/OR REDISTRIBUTE THE
PROGRAM AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES, INCLUDING ANY
GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGESARISING OUT OF THE USE OR
INABILITYTO USE THE PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF DATA OR DATA
BEING RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSESSUSTAINED BY YOU OR THIRD PARTIESOR A
FAILURE OF THE PROGRAM TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER PROGRAMS), EVEN IF SUCH
HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITYOF SUCH DAMAGES.

TERMS AND CONDITIONSFOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION 0. ThisLicense
Agreement appliesto anysoftware libraryor other program which containsa notice
placed bythe copyright holder or other authorized partysaying it maybe
distributed under the termsof thisLesser GeneralPublic License (also called
“thisLicense”). Each licensee is addressed as”you”. A “library” meansa
collection of software functionsand/or data prepared so asto be
convenientlylinked with application programs(which use some of those
functionsand data) to form executables.
28
The “Library”, below, refersto anysuch software libraryor workwhich hasbeen distributed under these terms. A “workbased on the Library” meanseither the Libraryor anyderivative workunder copyright law: that isto say, a workcontaining the Libraryor a portion of it, either verbatim or with modificationsand/or translated straightforwardlyinto another language. (Hereinafter, translation isincluded without limitation in the term “modification”.) “Source code” for a workmeansthe preferred form of the workfor making modificationsto it. For a library, complete source code meansallthe source code for allmodulesit contains, plusanyassociated interface definition files, plusthe scriptsused to controlcompilation and installation of the library. Activitiesother than copying, distribution and modification are not covered bythisLicense; theyare outside itsscope. The act of running a program using the Libraryisnot restricted, and output from such a program iscovered onlyif itscontentsconstitute a workbased on the Library (independent of the use of the Libraryin a toolfor writing it). Whether that istrue dependson what the Librarydoesand what the program that usesthe Librarydoes.
- You maycopyand distribute verbatim copiesof the Library’scomplete source
code asyou receive it, in anymedium, provided that you conspicuouslyand
appropriatelypublish on each copyan appropriate copyright notice and
disclaimer of warranty; keep intact allthe notices that refer to thisLicense
and to the absence of anywarranty; and distribute a copyof thisLicense along
with the Library. You maycharge a fee for the physicalact of transferring a
copy, and you mayat your option offer warrantyprotection in exchange for a
fee. 2. You maymodifyyour copyor copiesof the Libraryor anyportion of it,
thusforming a workbased on the Library, and copyand distribute such
modificationsor workunder the termsof Section 1 above, provided that you also
meet allof these conditions: a) The modified workmust itself be a software
library. b) You must cause the filesmodified to carryprominent noticesstating
that you changed the filesand the date of anychange. c) You must cause the
whole of the workto be licensed at no charge to allthird partiesunder the
termsof thisLicense. d) If a facilityin the modified Libraryrefersto a
function or a table of data to be supplied byan application program that
usesthe facility, other than asan argument passed when the facilityisinvoked,
then you must make a good faith effort to ensure that, in the event an
application doesnot supplysuch function or table, the facilitystilloperates,
and performswhatever part of itspurpose remainsmeaningful. These
requirementsapplyto the modified workasa whole. If identifiable sectionsof
that workare not derived from the Library, and can be reasonablyconsidered
independent and separate worksin themselves, then thisLicense, and itsterms,
do not applyto those sectionswhen you distribute them asseparate works. But
when you distribute the same sectionsaspart of a whole which isa workbased on
the Library, the distribution of the whole must be on the termsof thisLicense,
whose permissionsfor other licenseesextend to the entire whole, and thusto
each and everypart regardlessof who wrote it. Thus, it isnot the intent of
thissection to claim rightsor contest your rightsto workwritten entirelybyyou;
rather, the intent isto exercise the right to controlthe distribution of
derivative or collective worksbased on the Library. In addition, mere
aggregation of another worknot based on the Librarywith the Library(or with a
workbased on the Library) on a volume of a storage or distribution medium
doesnot bring the other workunder the scope of thisLicense. 3. You mayopt to
applythe termsof the ordinaryGNU GeneralPublic License instead of thisLicense
to a given copyof the Library. To do this, you must alter allthe noticesthat
refer to thisLicense, so that theyrefer to the ordinaryGNU GeneralPublic
License, version 2 instead of to this License. (If a newer version than
version 2 of the ordinaryGNU GeneralPublic License hasappeared, then you can
specifythat version instead if you wish.) Do not make anyother change in these
notices. Once thischange ismade in a given copy, it isirreversible for that
copy, so the ordinaryGNU GeneralPublic License appliesto allsubsequent
copiesand derivative worksmade from that copy. Thisoption isusefulwhen you
wish to copypart of the code of the Libraryinto a program that is not a
library. 4. You maycopyand distribute the Library(or a portion or derivative
of it, under Section 2) in object code or executable form under the termsof
Sections1 and 2 above provided that you accompanyit with the complete
corresponding machine-readable source code, which must be distributed under
the termsof Sections1 and 2 above on a medium customarilyused for software
interchange. If distribution of object code ismade byoffering accessto
copyfrom a designated place, then offering equivalent accessto copythe source
code from the same place satisfiesthe requirement to distribute the source
code, even though third partiesare not compelled to copythe source along with
the object code. 5. A program that containsno derivative of anyportion of the
Library, but isdesigned to workwith the Librarybybeing compiled or linked with
it, is called a “workthat usesthe Library”. Such a work, in isolation, isnot a
derivative workof the Library, and therefore fallsoutside the scope of this
License. However, linking a “workthat usesthe Library” with the
Librarycreatesan executable that isa derivative of the Library(because it
contains portionsof the Library), rather than a “workthat usesthe library”.
The executable istherefore covered bythisLicense. Section 6 statestermsfor
distribution of such executables. When a “workthat usesthe Library”
usesmaterialfrom a header file that ispart of the Library, the object code for
the workmaybe a derivative workof the Libraryeven though the source code
isnot.
29
Whether thisistrue isespeciallysignificant if the workcan be linked without
the Library, or if the workisitself a library. The threshold for thisto be
true isnot preciselydefined bylaw. If such an object file
usesonlynumericalparameters, data structure layoutsand accessors, and
smallmacrosand smallinline functions(ten lines or lessin length), then the use
of the object file isunrestricted, regardlessof whether it islegallya
derivative work. (Executablescontaining this object code plusportionsof the
Librarywillstillfallunder Section 6.) Otherwise, if the workisa derivative of
the Library, you maydistribute the object code for the workunder the termsof
Section 6. Anyexecutablescontaining that workalso fallunder Section 6, whether
or not theyare linked directlywith the Libraryitself. 6. Asan exception to the
Sectionsabove, you mayalso combine or linka “workthat usesthe Library” with
the Libraryto produce a work containing portionsof the Library, and distribute
that workunder termsof your choice, provided that the termspermit modification
of the workfor your own use and reverse engineering for debugging such
modifications. You must give prominent notice with each copyof the workthat
the Libraryisused in it and that the Libraryand itsuse are covered
bythisLicense. You must supplya copyof thisLicense. If the workduring
execution displayscopyright notices, you must include the copyright notice for
the Libraryamong them, aswellasa reference directing the user to the copy of
thisLicense. Also, you must do one of these things: a) Accompanythe workwith
the complete corresponding machine-readable source code for the
Libraryincluding whatever changeswere used in the work(which must be
distributed under Sections1 and 2 above); and, if the workisan executable
linked with the Library, with the complete machine-readable “workthat usesthe
Library”, asobject code and/or source code, so that the user can modifythe
Libraryand then relinkto produce a modified executable containing the modified
Library. (It isunderstood that the user who changesthe contentsof definitions
filesin the Librarywillnot necessarilybe able to recompile the application to
use the modified definitions.) b) Use a suitable shared librarymechanism for
linking with the Library. A suitable mechanism isone that (1) usesat run time
a copyof the library alreadypresent on the user’scomputer system, rather than
copying libraryfunctionsinto the executable, and (2) willoperate properlywith
a modified version of the library, if the user installsone, aslong asthe
modified version isinterface-compatible with the version that the workwas made
with. c) Accompanythe workwith a written offer, valid for at least three
years, to give the same user the materialsspecified in Subsection 6a, above,
for a charge no more than the cost of performing thisdistribution. d) If
distribution of the workismade byoffering accessto copyfrom a designated
place, offer equivalent accessto copythe above specified materialsfrom the
same place. e) Verifythat the user hasalreadyreceived a copyof these
materialsor that you have alreadysent thisuser a copy. For an executable, the
required form of the “workthat usesthe Library” must include anydata and
utilityprogramsneeded for reproducing the executable from it. However, asa
specialexception, the materialsto be distributed need not include anything
that isnormallydistributed (in either source or binaryform) with the major
components(compiler, kernel, and so on) of the operating system on which the
executable runs, unless that component itself accompaniesthe executable. It
mayhappen that thisrequirement contradictsthe license restrictionsof other
proprietary librariesthat do not normallyaccompanythe operating system. Such a
contradiction meansyou cannot use both them and the Librarytogether in an
executable that you distribute. 7. You mayplace libraryfacilitiesthat are a
workbased on the Libraryside-by-side in a single librarytogether with other
libraryfacilitiesnot covered bythisLicense, and distribute such a combined
library, provided that the separate distribution of the workbased on the
Libraryand of the other libraryfacilitiesisotherwise permitted, and provided
that you do these two things: a) Accompanythe combined librarywith a copyof
the same workbased on the Library, uncombined with anyother libraryfacilities.
Thismust be distributed under the termsof the Sectionsabove. b) Give prominent
notice with the combined libraryof the fact that part of it isa workbased on
the Library, and explaining where to find the accompanying uncombined form of
the same work. 8. You maynot copy, modify, sublicense, linkwith, or distribute
the Libraryexcept asexpresslyprovided under thisLicense. Anyattempt otherwise
to copy, modify, sublicense, linkwith, or distribute the Libraryisvoid, and
willautomaticallyterminate your rightsunder thisLicense. However, partieswho
have received copies, or rights, from you under thisLicense willnot have their
licensesterminated so long assuch partiesremain in full compliance. 9. You are
not required to accept thisLicense, since you have not signed it. However,
nothing else grantsyou permission to modifyor distribute the Libraryor
itsderivative works. These actionsare prohibited bylaw if you do not accept
thisLicense. Therefore, bymodifying or distributing the Library(or
anyworkbased on the Library), you indicate your acceptance of thisLicense to
do so, and allitstermsand conditionsfor copying, distributing or modifying the
Libraryor worksbased on it. 10. Each time you redistribute the Library(or
anyworkbased on the Library), the recipient automaticallyreceivesa license
from the original licensor to copy, distribute, linkwith or modifythe
Librarysubject to these termsand conditions. You maynot impose anyfurther
restrictionson the recipients’ exercise of the rightsgranted herein. You are
not responsible for enforcing compliance bythird partieswith thisLicense.

11. If, asa consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent
infringement or for anyother reason (not limited to patent issues), conditions
are imposed on you (whether bycourt order, agreement or otherwise) that
contradict the conditionsof thisLicense, theydo not excuse you from the
conditionsof thisLicense. If you cannot distribute so asto
satisfysimultaneouslyyour obligationsunder thisLicense and anyother pertinent
obligations, then asa consequence you maynot distribute the Libraryat all. For
example, if a patent license would not permit royalty-free redistribution of
the Librarybyallthose who receive copiesdirectlyor indirectlythrough you, then
the onlywayyou could satisfyboth it and this License would be to refrain
entirelyfrom distribution of the Library. If anyportion of thissection isheld
invalid or unenforceable under anyparticular circumstance, the balance of the
section isintended to apply, and the section asa whole isintended to applyin
other circumstances. It isnot the purpose of thissection to induce you to
infringe anypatentsor other propertyright claimsor to contest validityof
anysuch claims; this section hasthe sole purpose of protecting the integrityof
the free software distribution system which isimplemented bypublic license
practices. Manypeople have made generouscontributionsto the wide range of
software distributed through that system in reliance on consistent application
of that system; it isup to the author/donor to decide if he or she iswilling
to distribute software through anyother system and a licensee cannot impose
that choice. Thissection isintended to make thoroughlyclear what isbelieved to
be a consequence of the rest of thisLicense. 12. If the distribution and/or
use of the Libraryisrestricted in certain countrieseither bypatentsor
bycopyrighted interfaces, the originalcopyright holder who placesthe
Libraryunder thisLicense mayadd an explicit geographicaldistribution
limitation excluding those countries, so that distribution ispermitted onlyin
or among countriesnot thusexcluded. In such case, thisLicense incorporatesthe
limitation asif written in the body of thisLicense. 13. The Free Software
Foundation maypublish revised and/or new versionsof the Lesser GeneralPublic
License from time to time. Such new versionswillbe similar in spirit to the
present version, but maydiffer in detailto addressnew problemsor concerns.
Each version isgiven a distinguishing version number. If the Libraryspecifiesa
version number of thisLicense which appliesto it and “anylater version”, you
have the option of following the termsand conditionseither of that version or
of anylater version published bythe Free Software Foundation. If the Library
doesnot specifya license version number, you maychoose anyversion ever
published bythe Free Software Foundation. 14. If you wish to incorporate
partsof the Libraryinto other free programswhose distribution conditionsare
incompatible with these, write to the author to askfor permission. For
software which iscopyrighted bythe Free Software Foundation, write to the Free
Software Foundation; we sometimesmake exceptionsfor this. Our decision willbe
guided bythe two goalsof preserving the free statusof allderivativesof our
free software and of promoting the sharing and reuse of software generally.
