By -contrast, our General Public Licenses are intended to guarantee your -freedom to share and change all versions of a program--to make sure it -remains free software for all its users. - -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 -them 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. - -Developers that use our General Public Licenses protect your rights -with two steps: (1) assert copyright on the software, and (2) offer -you this License which gives you legal permission to copy, distribute -and/or modify the software. - -A secondary benefit of defending all users' freedom is that -improvements made in alternate versions of the program, if they -receive widespread use, become available for other developers to -incorporate. Many developers of free software are heartened and -encouraged by the resulting cooperation. However, in the case of -software used on network servers, this result may fail to come about. -The GNU General Public License permits making a modified version and -letting the public access it on a server without ever releasing its -source code to the public. - -The GNU Affero General Public License is designed specifically to -ensure that, in such cases, the modified source code becomes available -to the community. It requires the operator of a network server to -provide the source code of the modified version running there to the -users of that server. Therefore, public use of a modified version, on -a publicly accessible server, gives the public access to the source -code of the modified version. - -An older license, called the Affero General Public License and -published by Affero, was designed to accomplish similar goals. This is -a different license, not a version of the Affero GPL, but Affero has -released a new version of the Affero GPL which permits relicensing under -this license. - -The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and -modification follow. - -@heading TERMS AND CONDITIONS - -@enumerate 0 -@item Definitions. - -``This License'' refers to version 3 of the GNU Affero General Public License. - -``Copyright'' also means copyright-like laws that apply to other kinds -of works, such as semiconductor masks. - -``The Program'' refers to any copyrightable work licensed under this -License. Each licensee is addressed as ``you''. ``Licensees'' and -``recipients'' may be individuals or organizations. - -To ``modify'' a work means to copy from or adapt all or part of the work -in a fashion requiring copyright permission, other than the making of -an exact copy. The resulting work is called a ``modified version'' of -the earlier work or a work ``based on'' the earlier work. - -A ``covered work'' means either the unmodified Program or a work based -on the Program. - -To ``propagate'' a work means to do anything with it that, without -permission, would make you directly or secondarily liable for -infringement under applicable copyright law, except executing it on a -computer or modifying a private copy. Propagation includes copying, -distribution (with or without modification), making available to the -public, and in some countries other activities as well. - -To ``convey'' a work means any kind of propagation that enables other -parties to make or receive copies. Mere interaction with a user -through a computer network, with no transfer of a copy, is not -conveying. - -An interactive user interface displays ``Appropriate Legal Notices'' to -the extent that it includes a convenient and prominently visible -feature that (1) displays an appropriate copyright notice, and (2) -tells the user that there is no warranty for the work (except to the -extent that warranties are provided), that licensees may convey the -work under this License, and how to view a copy of this License. If -the interface presents a list of user commands or options, such as a -menu, a prominent item in the list meets this criterion. - -@item Source Code. - -The ``source code'' for a work means the preferred form of the work for -making modifications to it. ``Object code'' means any non-source form -of a work. - -A ``Standard Interface'' means an interface that either is an official -standard defined by a recognized standards body, or, in the case of -interfaces specified for a particular programming language, one that -is widely used among developers working in that language. - -The ``System Libraries'' of an executable work include anything, other -than the work as a whole, that (a) is included in the normal form of -packaging a Major Component, but which is not part of that Major -Component, and (b) serves only to enable use of the work with that -Major Component, or to implement a Standard Interface for which an -implementation is available to the public in source code form. A -``Major Component'', in this context, means a major essential component -(kernel, window system, and so on) of the specific operating system -(if any) on which the executable work runs, or a compiler used to -produce the work, or an object code interpreter used to run it. - -The ``Corresponding Source'' for a work in object code form means all -the source code needed to generate, install, and (for an executable -work) run the object code and to modify the work, including scripts to -control those activities. However, it does not include the work's -System Libraries, or general-purpose tools or generally available free -programs which are used unmodified in performing those activities but -which are not part of the work. For example, Corresponding Source -includes interface definition files associated with source files for -the work, and the source code for shared libraries and dynamically -linked subprograms that the work is specifically designed to require, -such as by intimate data communication or control flow between those -subprograms and other parts of the work. - -The Corresponding Source need not include anything that users can -regenerate automatically from other parts of the Corresponding Source. - -The Corresponding Source for a work in source code form is that same -work. - -@item Basic Permissions. - -All rights granted under this License are granted for the term of -copyright on the Program, and are irrevocable provided the stated -conditions are met. This License explicitly affirms your unlimited -permission to run the unmodified Program. The output from running a -covered work is covered by this License only if the output, given its -content, constitutes a covered work. This License acknowledges your -rights of fair use or other equivalent, as provided by copyright law. - -You may make, run and propagate covered works that you do not convey, -without conditions so long as your license otherwise remains in force. -You may convey covered works to others for the sole purpose of having -them make modifications exclusively for you, or provide you with -facilities for running those works, provided that you comply with the -terms of this License in conveying all material for which you do not -control copyright. Those thus making or running the covered works for -you must do so exclusively on your behalf, under your direction and -control, on terms that prohibit them from making any copies of your -copyrighted material outside their relationship with you. - -Conveying under any other circumstances is permitted solely under the -conditions stated below. Sublicensing is not allowed; section 10 -makes it unnecessary. - -@item Protecting Users' Legal Rights From Anti-Circumvention Law. - -No covered work shall be deemed part of an effective technological -measure under any applicable law fulfilling obligations under article -11 of the WIPO copyright treaty adopted on 20 December 1996, or -similar laws prohibiting or restricting circumvention of such -measures. - -When you convey a covered work, you waive any legal power to forbid -circumvention of technological measures to the extent such -circumvention is effected by exercising rights under this License with -respect to the covered work, and you disclaim any intention to limit -operation or modification of the work as a means of enforcing, against -the work's users, your or third parties' legal rights to forbid -circumvention of technological measures. - -@item Conveying Verbatim Copies. - -You may convey 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; -keep intact all notices stating that this License and any -non-permissive terms added in accord with section 7 apply to the code; -keep intact all notices of the absence of any warranty; and give all -recipients a copy of this License along with the Program. - -You may charge any price or no price for each copy that you convey, -and you may offer support or warranty protection for a fee. - -@item Conveying Modified Source Versions. - -You may convey a work based on the Program, or the modifications to -produce it from the Program, in the form of source code under the -terms of section 4, provided that you also meet all of these -conditions: - -@enumerate a -@item -The work must carry prominent notices stating that you modified it, -and giving a relevant date. - -@item -The work must carry prominent notices stating that it is released -under this License and any conditions added under section 7. This -requirement modifies the requirement in section 4 to ``keep intact all -notices''. - -@item -You must license the entire work, as a whole, under this License to -anyone who comes into possession of a copy. This License will -therefore apply, along with any applicable section 7 additional terms, -to the whole of the work, and all its parts, regardless of how they -are packaged. This License gives no permission to license the work in -any other way, but it does not invalidate such permission if you have -separately received it. - -@item -If the work has interactive user interfaces, each must display -Appropriate Legal Notices; however, if the Program has interactive -interfaces that do not display Appropriate Legal Notices, your work -need not make them do so. -@end enumerate - -A compilation of a covered work with other separate and independent -works, which are not by their nature extensions of the covered work, -and which are not combined with it such as to form a larger program, -in or on a volume of a storage or distribution medium, is called an -``aggregate'' if the compilation and its resulting copyright are not -used to limit the access or legal rights of the compilation's users -beyond what the individual works permit. Inclusion of a covered work -in an aggregate does not cause this License to apply to the other -parts of the aggregate. - -@item Conveying Non-Source Forms. - -You may convey a covered work in object code form under the terms of -sections 4 and 5, provided that you also convey the machine-readable -Corresponding Source under the terms of this License, in one of these -ways: - -@enumerate a -@item -Convey the object code in, or embodied in, a physical product -(including a physical distribution medium), accompanied by the -Corresponding Source fixed on a durable physical medium customarily -used for software interchange. - -@item -Convey the object code in, or embodied in, a physical product -(including a physical distribution medium), accompanied by a written -offer, valid for at least three years and valid for as long as you -offer spare parts or customer support for that product model, to give -anyone who possesses the object code either (1) a copy of the -Corresponding Source for all the software in the product that is -covered by this License, on a durable physical medium customarily used -for software interchange, for a price no more than your reasonable -cost of physically performing this conveying of source, or (2) access -to copy the Corresponding Source from a network server at no charge. - -@item -Convey individual copies of the object code with a copy of the written -offer to provide the Corresponding Source. This alternative is -allowed only occasionally and noncommercially, and only if you -received the object code with such an offer, in accord with subsection -6b. - -@item -Convey the object code by offering access from a designated place -(gratis or for a charge), and offer equivalent access to the -Corresponding Source in the same way through the same place at no -further charge. You need not require recipients to copy the -Corresponding Source along with the object code. If the place to copy -the object code is a network server, the Corresponding Source may be -on a different server (operated by you or a third party) that supports -equivalent copying facilities, provided you maintain clear directions -next to the object code saying where to find the Corresponding Source. -Regardless of what server hosts the Corresponding Source, you remain -obligated to ensure that it is available for as long as needed to -satisfy these requirements. - -@item -Convey the object code using peer-to-peer transmission, provided you -inform other peers where the object code and Corresponding Source of -the work are being offered to the general public at no charge under -subsection 6d. - -@end enumerate - -A separable portion of the object code, whose source code is excluded -from the Corresponding Source as a System Library, need not be -included in conveying the object code work. - -A ``User Product'' is either (1) a ``consumer product'', which means any -tangible personal property which is normally used for personal, -family, or household purposes, or (2) anything designed or sold for -incorporation into a dwelling. In determining whether a product is a -consumer product, doubtful cases shall be resolved in favor of -coverage. For a particular product received by a particular user, -``normally used'' refers to a typical or common use of that class of -product, regardless of the status of the particular user or of the way -in which the particular user actually uses, or expects or is expected -to use, the product. A product is a consumer product regardless of -whether the product has substantial commercial, industrial or -non-consumer uses, unless such uses represent the only significant -mode of use of the product. - -``Installation Information'' for a User Product means any methods, -procedures, authorization keys, or other information required to -install and execute modified versions of a covered work in that User -Product from a modified version of its Corresponding Source. The -information must suffice to ensure that the continued functioning of -the modified object code is in no case prevented or interfered with -solely because modification has been made. - -If you convey an object code work under this section in, or with, or -specifically for use in, a User Product, and the conveying occurs as -part of a transaction in which the right of possession and use of the -User Product is transferred to the recipient in perpetuity or for a -fixed term (regardless of how the transaction is characterized), the -Corresponding Source conveyed under this section must be accompanied -by the Installation Information. But this requirement does not apply -if neither you nor any third party retains the ability to install -modified object code on the User Product (for example, the work has -been installed in ROM). - -The requirement to provide Installation Information does not include a -requirement to continue to provide support service, warranty, or -updates for a work that has been modified or installed by the -recipient, or for the User Product in which it has been modified or -installed. Access to a network may be denied when the modification -itself materially and adversely affects the operation of the network -or violates the rules and protocols for communication across the -network. - -Corresponding Source conveyed, and Installation Information provided, -in accord with this section must be in a format that is publicly -documented (and with an implementation available to the public in -source code form), and must require no special password or key for -unpacking, reading or copying. - -@item Additional Terms. - -``Additional permissions'' are terms that supplement the terms of this -License by making exceptions from one or more of its conditions. -Additional permissions that are applicable to the entire Program shall -be treated as though they were included in this License, to the extent -that they are valid under applicable law. If additional permissions -apply only to part of the Program, that part may be used separately -under those permissions, but the entire Program remains governed by -this License without regard to the additional permissions. - -When you convey a copy of a covered work, you may at your option -remove any additional permissions from that copy, or from any part of -it. (Additional permissions may be written to require their own -removal in certain cases when you modify the work.) You may place -additional permissions on material, added by you to a covered work, -for which you have or can give appropriate copyright permission. - -Notwithstanding any other provision of this License, for material you -add to a covered work, you may (if authorized by the copyright holders -of that material) supplement the terms of this License with terms: - -@enumerate a -@item -Disclaiming warranty or limiting liability differently from the terms -of sections 15 and 16 of this License; or - -@item -Requiring preservation of specified reasonable legal notices or author -attributions in that material or in the Appropriate Legal Notices -displayed by works containing it; or - -@item -Prohibiting misrepresentation of the origin of that material, or -requiring that modified versions of such material be marked in -reasonable ways as different from the original version; or - -@item -Limiting the use for publicity purposes of names of licensors or -authors of the material; or - -@item -Declining to grant rights under trademark law for use of some trade -names, trademarks, or service marks; or - -@item -Requiring indemnification of licensors and authors of that material by -anyone who conveys the material (or modified versions of it) with -contractual assumptions of liability to the recipient, for any -liability that these contractual assumptions directly impose on those -licensors and authors. -@end enumerate - -All other non-permissive additional terms are considered ``further -restrictions'' within the meaning of section 10. If the Program as you -received it, or any part of it, contains a notice stating that it is -governed by this License along with a term that is a further -restriction, you may remove that term. If a license document contains -a further restriction but permits relicensing or conveying under this -License, you may add to a covered work material governed by the terms -of that license document, provided that the further restriction does -not survive such relicensing or conveying. - -If you add terms to a covered work in accord with this section, you -must place, in the relevant source files, a statement of the -additional terms that apply to those files, or a notice indicating -where to find the applicable terms. - -Additional terms, permissive or non-permissive, may be stated in the -form of a separately written license, or stated as exceptions; the -above requirements apply either way. - -@item Termination. - -You may not propagate or modify a covered work except as expressly -provided under this License. Any attempt otherwise to propagate or -modify it is void, and will automatically terminate your rights under -this License (including any patent licenses granted under the third -paragraph of section 11). - -However, if you cease all violation of this License, then your license -from a particular copyright holder is reinstated (a) provisionally, -unless and until the copyright holder explicitly and finally -terminates your license, and (b) permanently, if the copyright holder -fails to notify you of the violation by some reasonable means prior to -60 days after the cessation. - -Moreover, your license from a particular copyright holder is -reinstated permanently if the copyright holder notifies you of the -violation by some reasonable means, this is the first time you have -received notice of violation of this License (for any work) from that -copyright holder, and you cure the violation prior to 30 days after -your receipt of the notice. - -Termination of your rights under this section does not terminate the -licenses of parties who have received copies or rights from you under -this License. If your rights have been terminated and not permanently -reinstated, you do not qualify to receive new licenses for the same -material under section 10. - -@item Acceptance Not Required for Having Copies. - -You are not required to accept this License in order to receive or run -a copy of the Program. Ancillary propagation of a covered work -occurring solely as a consequence of using peer-to-peer transmission -to receive a copy likewise does not require acceptance. However, -nothing other than this License grants you permission to propagate or -modify any covered work. These actions infringe copyright if you do -not accept this License. Therefore, by modifying or propagating a -covered work, you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so. - -@item Automatic Licensing of Downstream Recipients. - -Each time you convey a covered work, the recipient automatically -receives a license from the original licensors, to run, modify and -propagate that work, subject to this License. You are not responsible -for enforcing compliance by third parties with this License. - -An ``entity transaction'' is a transaction transferring control of an -organization, or substantially all assets of one, or subdividing an -organization, or merging organizations. If propagation of a covered -work results from an entity transaction, each party to that -transaction who receives a copy of the work also receives whatever -licenses to the work the party's predecessor in interest had or could -give under the previous paragraph, plus a right to possession of the -Corresponding Source of the work from the predecessor in interest, if -the predecessor has it or can get it with reasonable efforts. - -You may not impose any further restrictions on the exercise of the -rights granted or affirmed under this License. For example, you may -not impose a license fee, royalty, or other charge for exercise of -rights granted under this License, and you may not initiate litigation -(including a cross-claim or counterclaim in a lawsuit) alleging that -any patent claim is infringed by making, using, selling, offering for -sale, or importing the Program or any portion of it. - -@item Patents. - -A ``contributor'' is a copyright holder who authorizes use under this -License of the Program or a work on which the Program is based. The -work thus licensed is called the contributor's ``contributor version''. - -A contributor's ``essential patent claims'' are all patent claims owned -or controlled by the contributor, whether already acquired or -hereafter acquired, that would be infringed by some manner, permitted -by this License, of making, using, or selling its contributor version, -but do not include claims that would be infringed only as a -consequence of further modification of the contributor version. For -purposes of this definition, ``control'' includes the right to grant -patent sublicenses in a manner consistent with the requirements of -this License. - -Each contributor grants you a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free -patent license under the contributor's essential patent claims, to -make, use, sell, offer for sale, import and otherwise run, modify and -propagate the contents of its contributor version. - -In the following three paragraphs, a ``patent license'' is any express -agreement or commitment, however denominated, not to enforce a patent -(such as an express permission to practice a patent or covenant not to -sue for patent infringement). To ``grant'' such a patent license to a -party means to make such an agreement or commitment not to enforce a -patent against the party. - -If you convey a covered work, knowingly relying on a patent license, -and the Corresponding Source of the work is not available for anyone -to copy, free of charge and under the terms of this License, through a -publicly available network server or other readily accessible means, -then you must either (1) cause the Corresponding Source to be so -available, or (2) arrange to deprive yourself of the benefit of the -patent license for this particular work, or (3) arrange, in a manner -consistent with the requirements of this License, to extend the patent -license to downstream recipients. ``Knowingly relying'' means you have -actual knowledge that, but for the patent license, your conveying the -covered work in a country, or your recipient's use of the covered work -in a country, would infringe one or more identifiable patents in that -country that you have reason to believe are valid. - -If, pursuant to or in connection with a single transaction or -arrangement, you convey, or propagate by procuring conveyance of, a -covered work, and grant a patent license to some of the parties -receiving the covered work authorizing them to use, propagate, modify -or convey a specific copy of the covered work, then the patent license -you grant is automatically extended to all recipients of the covered -work and works based on it. - -A patent license is ``discriminatory'' if it does not include within the -scope of its coverage, prohibits the exercise of, or is conditioned on -the non-exercise of one or more of the rights that are specifically -granted under this License. You may not convey a covered work if you -are a party to an arrangement with a third party that is in the -business of distributing software, under which you make payment to the -third party based on the extent of your activity of conveying the -work, and under which the third party grants, to any of the parties -who would receive the covered work from you, a discriminatory patent -license (a) in connection with copies of the covered work conveyed by -you (or copies made from those copies), or (b) primarily for and in -connection with specific products or compilations that contain the -covered work, unless you entered into that arrangement, or that patent -license was granted, prior to 28 March 2007. - -Nothing in this License shall be construed as excluding or limiting -any implied license or other defenses to infringement that may -otherwise be available to you under applicable patent law. - -@item No Surrender of Others' Freedom. - -If 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 convey -a covered work so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under -this License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a -consequence you may not convey it at all. For example, if you agree -to terms that obligate you to collect a royalty for further conveying -from those to whom you convey the Program, the only way you could -satisfy both those terms and this License would be to refrain entirely -from conveying the Program. - -@item Remote Network Interaction; Use with the GNU General Public License. - -Notwithstanding any other provision of this License, if you modify the -Program, your modified version must prominently offer all users interacting -with it remotely through a computer network (if your version supports such -interaction) an opportunity to receive the Corresponding Source of your -version by providing access to the Corresponding Source from a network -server at no charge, through some standard or customary means of -facilitating copying of software. This Corresponding Source shall include -the Corresponding Source for any work covered by version 3 of the GNU -General Public License that is incorporated pursuant to the following -paragraph. - -Notwithstanding any other provision of this License, you have permission to -link or combine any covered work with a work licensed under version 3 of -the GNU General Public License into a single combined work, and to convey -the resulting work. The terms of this License will continue to apply to -the part which is the covered work, but the work with which it is combined -will remain governed by version 3 of the GNU General Public License. - -@item Revised Versions of this License. - -The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions -of the GNU Affero 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 that a certain numbered version of the GNU Affero General Public -License ``or any later version'' applies to it, you have the option of -following the terms and conditions either of that numbered version or -of any later version published by the Free Software Foundation. If -the Program does not specify a version number of the GNU Affero General -Public License, you may choose any version ever published by the Free -Software Foundation. - -If the Program specifies that a proxy can decide which future versions -of the GNU Affero General Public License can be used, that proxy's public -statement of acceptance of a version permanently authorizes you to -choose that version for the Program. - -Later license versions may give you additional or different -permissions. However, no additional obligations are imposed on any -author or copyright holder as a result of your choosing to follow a -later version. - -@item Disclaimer of Warranty. - -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. - -@item Limitation of Liability. - -IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN WRITING -WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MODIFIES AND/OR -CONVEYS 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. - -@item Interpretation of Sections 15 and 16. - -If the disclaimer of warranty and limitation of liability provided -above cannot be given local legal effect according to their terms, -reviewing courts shall apply local law that most closely approximates -an absolute waiver of all civil liability in connection with the -Program, unless a warranty or assumption of liability accompanies a -copy of the Program in return for a fee. - -@end enumerate - -@heading END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS - -@heading How to Apply These Terms to Your New Programs - -If you develop a new program, and you want it to be of the greatest -possible use to the public, the best way to achieve this is to make it -free software which everyone can redistribute and change under these -terms. - -To do so, attach the following notices to the program. It is safest -to attach them to the start of each source file to most effectively -state the exclusion of warranty; and each file should have at least -the ``copyright'' line and a pointer to where the full notice is found. - -@smallexample -@var{one line to give the program's name and a brief idea of what it does.} -Copyright (C) @var{year} @var{name of author} - -This program is free software: you can redistribute it and/or modify -it under the terms of the GNU Affero General Public License as published by -the Free Software Foundation, either version 3 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. See the GNU -Affero General Public License for more details. - -You should have received a copy of the GNU Affero General Public License -along with this program.

By contrast, the GNU General Public -Licenses are intended to guarantee your freedom to share and change -free software---to make sure the software is free for all its users. - - This license, the Lesser General Public License, applies to some -specially designated software---typically libraries---of the Free -Software Foundation and other authors who decide to use it. You can use -it too, but we suggest you first think carefully about whether this -license or the ordinary General Public License is the better strategy to -use in any particular case, based on the explanations below. - - When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom of use, -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 and use pieces of it -in new free programs; and that you are informed that you can do these -things. - - To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that forbid -distributors to deny you these rights or to ask you to surrender these -rights. These restrictions translate to certain responsibilities for -you if you distribute copies of the library or if you modify it. - - For example, if you distribute copies of the library, whether gratis -or for a fee, you must give the recipients all the rights that we gave -you. You must make sure that they, too, receive or can get the source -code. If you link other code with the library, you must provide -complete object files to the recipients, so that they can relink them -with the library after making changes to the library and recompiling -it. And you must show them these terms so they know their rights. - - We protect your rights with a two-step method: (1) we copyright the -library, and (2) we offer you this license, which gives you legal -permission to copy, distribute and/or modify the library. - - To protect each distributor, we want to make it very clear that -there is no warranty for the free library. Also, if the library is -modified by someone else and passed on, the recipients should know -that what they have is not the original version, so that the original -author's reputation will not be affected by problems that might be -introduced by others. - - Finally, software patents pose a constant threat to the existence of -any free program. We wish to make sure that a company cannot -effectively restrict the users of a free program by obtaining a -restrictive license from a patent holder. Therefore, we insist that -any patent license obtained for a version of the library must be -consistent with the full freedom of use specified in this license. - - Most GNU software, including some libraries, is covered by the -ordinary GNU General Public License. This license, the GNU Lesser -General Public License, applies to certain designated libraries, and -is quite different from the ordinary General Public License. We use -this license for certain libraries in order to permit linking those -libraries into non-free programs. - - When a program is linked with a library, whether statically or using -a shared library, the combination of the two is legally speaking a -combined work, a derivative of the original library. The ordinary -General Public License therefore permits such linking only if the -entire combination fits its criteria of freedom. The Lesser General -Public License permits more lax criteria for linking other code with -the library. - - We call this license the @dfn{Lesser} General Public License because it -does @emph{Less} to protect the user's freedom than the ordinary General -Public License. It also provides other free software developers Less -of an advantage over competing non-free programs. These disadvantages -are the reason we use the ordinary General Public License for many -libraries. However, the Lesser license provides advantages in certain -special circumstances. - - For example, on rare occasions, there may be a special need to -encourage the widest possible use of a certain library, so that it becomes -a de-facto standard. To achieve this, non-free programs must be -allowed to use the library. A more frequent case is that a free -library does the same job as widely used non-free libraries. In this -case, there is little to gain by limiting the free library to free -software only, so we use the Lesser General Public License. - - In other cases, permission to use a particular library in non-free -programs enables a greater number of people to use a large body of -free software. For example, permission to use the GNU C Library in -non-free programs enables many more people to use the whole GNU -operating system, as well as its variant, the GNU/Linux operating -system. - - Although the Lesser General Public License is Less protective of the -users' freedom, it does ensure that the user of a program that is -linked with the Library has the freedom and the wherewithal to run -that program using a modified version of the Library. - - The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and -modification follow. Pay close attention to the difference between a -``work based on the library'' and a ``work that uses the library''. The -former contains code derived from the library, whereas the latter must -be combined with the library in order to run. - -@subheading TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION - -@enumerate 0 -@item -This License Agreement applies to any software library or other program -which contains a notice placed by the copyright holder or other -authorized party saying it may be distributed under the terms of this -Lesser General Public License (also called ``this License''). Each -licensee is addressed as ``you''. - - A ``library'' means a collection of software functions and/or data -prepared so as to be conveniently linked with application programs -(which use some of those functions and data) to form executables. - - The ``Library'', below, refers to any such software library or work -which has been distributed under these terms. A ``work based on the -Library'' means either the Library or any derivative work under -copyright law: that is to say, a work containing the Library or a -portion of it, either verbatim or with modifications and/or translated -straightforwardly into another language. (Hereinafter, translation is -included without limitation in the term ``modification''.) - - ``Source code'' for a work means the preferred form of the work for -making modifications to it. For a library, 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 library. - - Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are not -covered by this License; they are outside its scope. The act of -running a program using the Library is not restricted, and output from -such a program is covered only if its contents constitute a work based -on the Library (independent of the use of the Library in a tool for -writing it). Whether that is true depends on what the Library does -and what the program that uses the Library does. - -@item -You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Library's -complete 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 distribute a copy of this License along with the -Library. - - 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. - -@item -You may modify your copy or copies of the Library or any portion -of it, thus forming a work based on the Library, and copy and -distribute such modifications or work under the terms of Section 1 -above, provided that you also meet all of these conditions: - -@enumerate a -@item -The modified work must itself be a software library. - -@item -You must cause the files modified to carry prominent notices -stating that you changed the files and the date of any change. - -@item -You must cause the whole of the work to be licensed at no -charge to all third parties under the terms of this License. - -@item -If a facility in the modified Library refers to a function or a -table of data to be supplied by an application program that uses -the facility, other than as an argument passed when the facility -is invoked, then you must make a good faith effort to ensure that, -in the event an application does not supply such function or -table, the facility still operates, and performs whatever part of -its purpose remains meaningful. - -(For example, a function in a library to compute square roots has -a purpose that is entirely well-defined independent of the -application. Therefore, Subsection 2d requires that any -application-supplied function or table used by this function must -be optional: if the application does not supply it, the square -root function must still compute square roots.) -@end enumerate - -These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole. If -identifiable sections of that work are not derived from the Library, -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 Library, 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 Library. - -In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the Library -with the Library (or with a work based on the Library) on a volume of -a storage or distribution medium does not bring the other work under -the scope of this License. - -@item -You may opt to apply the terms of the ordinary GNU General Public -License instead of this License to a given copy of the Library. To do -this, you must alter all the notices that refer to this License, so -that they refer to the ordinary GNU General Public License, version 2, -instead of to this License. (If a newer version than version 2 of the -ordinary GNU General Public License has appeared, then you can specify -that version instead if you wish.) Do not make any other change in -these notices. - - Once this change is made in a given copy, it is irreversible for -that copy, so the ordinary GNU General Public License applies to all -subsequent copies and derivative works made from that copy. - - This option is useful when you wish to copy part of the code of -the Library into a program that is not a library. - -@item -You may copy and distribute the Library (or a portion or -derivative of it, under Section 2) in object code or executable form -under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above provided that you 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. - - If distribution of 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 satisfies the requirement to -distribute the source code, even though third parties are not -compelled to copy the source along with the object code. - -@item -A program that contains no derivative of any portion of the -Library, but is designed to work with the Library by being compiled or -linked with it, is called a ``work that uses the Library''. Such a -work, in isolation, is not a derivative work of the Library, and -therefore falls outside the scope of this License. - - However, linking a ``work that uses the Library'' with the Library -creates an executable that is a derivative of the Library (because it -contains portions of the Library), rather than a ``work that uses the -library''. The executable is therefore covered by this License. -Section 6 states terms for distribution of such executables. - - When a ``work that uses the Library'' uses material from a header file -that is part of the Library, the object code for the work may be a -derivative work of the Library even though the source code is not. -Whether this is true is especially significant if the work can be -linked without the Library, or if the work is itself a library. The -threshold for this to be true is not precisely defined by law. - - If such an object file uses only numerical parameters, data -structure layouts and accessors, and small macros and small inline -functions (ten lines or less in length), then the use of the object -file is unrestricted, regardless of whether it is legally a derivative -work. (Executables containing this object code plus portions of the -Library will still fall under Section 6.) - - Otherwise, if the work is a derivative of the Library, you may -distribute the object code for the work under the terms of Section 6. -Any executables containing that work also fall under Section 6, -whether or not they are linked directly with the Library itself. - -@item -As an exception to the Sections above, you may also combine or -link a ``work that uses the Library'' with the Library to produce a -work containing portions of the Library, and distribute that work -under terms of your choice, provided that the terms permit -modification of the work for the customer's own use and reverse -engineering for debugging such modifications. - - You must give prominent notice with each copy of the work that the -Library is used in it and that the Library and its use are covered by -this License. You must supply a copy of this License. If the work -during execution displays copyright notices, you must include the -copyright notice for the Library among them, as well as a reference -directing the user to the copy of this License. Also, you must do one -of these things: - -@enumerate a -@item -Accompany the work with the complete corresponding -machine-readable source code for the Library including whatever -changes were used in the work (which must be distributed under -Sections 1 and 2 above); and, if the work is an executable linked -with the Library, with the complete machine-readable ``work that -uses the Library'', as object code and/or source code, so that the -user can modify the Library and then relink to produce a modified -executable containing the modified Library. (It is understood -that the user who changes the contents of definitions files in the -Library will not necessarily be able to recompile the application -to use the modified definitions.) - -@item -Use a suitable shared library mechanism for linking with the Library. A -suitable mechanism is one that (1) uses at run time a copy of the -library already present on the user's computer system, rather than -copying library functions into the executable, and (2) will operate -properly with a modified version of the library, if the user installs -one, as long as the modified version is interface-compatible with the -version that the work was made with. - -@item -Accompany the work with a written offer, valid for at -least three years, to give the same user the materials -specified in Subsection 6a, above, for a charge no more -than the cost of performing this distribution. - -@item -If distribution of the work is made by offering access to copy -from a designated place, offer equivalent access to copy the above -specified materials from the same place. - -@item -Verify that the user has already received a copy of these -materials or that you have already sent this user a copy. -@end enumerate - - For an executable, the required form of the ``work that uses the -Library'' must include any data and utility programs needed for -reproducing the executable from it. However, as a special exception, -the materials to be 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. - - It may happen that this requirement contradicts the license -restrictions of other proprietary libraries that do not normally -accompany the operating system. Such a contradiction means you cannot -use both them and the Library together in an executable that you -distribute. - -@item -You may place library facilities that are a work based on the -Library side-by-side in a single library together with other library -facilities not covered by this License, and distribute such a combined -library, provided that the separate distribution of the work based on -the Library and of the other library facilities is otherwise -permitted, and provided that you do these two things: - -@enumerate a -@item -Accompany the combined library with a copy of the same work -based on the Library, uncombined with any other library -facilities. This must be distributed under the terms of the -Sections above. - -@item -Give prominent notice with the combined library of the fact -that part of it is a work based on the Library, and explaining -where to find the accompanying uncombined form of the same work. -@end enumerate - -@item -You may not copy, modify, sublicense, link with, or distribute -the Library except as expressly provided under this License. Any -attempt otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense, link with, or -distribute the Library 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. - -@item -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 Library or its derivative works. These actions are -prohibited by law if you do not accept this License. Therefore, by -modifying or distributing the Library (or any work based on the -Library), you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so, and -all its terms and conditions for copying, distributing or modifying -the Library or works based on it. - -@item -Each time you redistribute the Library (or any work based on the -Library), the recipient automatically receives a license from the -original licensor to copy, distribute, link with or modify the Library -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 with -this License. - -@item -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 Library at all. For example, if a patent -license would not permit royalty-free redistribution of the Library 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 Library. - -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. - -@item -If the distribution and/or use of the Library is restricted in -certain countries either by patents or by copyrighted interfaces, the -original copyright holder who places the Library 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. - -@item -The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new -versions of the Lesser 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 Library -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 Library does not specify a -license version number, you may choose any version ever published by -the Free Software Foundation. - -@item -If you wish to incorporate parts of the Library into other free -programs whose distribution conditions are incompatible with these, -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.
