Packit bbb0ff
 Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies
Packit bbb0ff
 of this license document, but changing it is not allowed.
Packit bbb0ff
Packit bbb0ff
			    Preamble
Packit bbb0ff
Packit bbb0ff
  The licenses for most software are designed to take away your
Packit bbb0ff
freedom to share and change it.  By contrast, the GNU General Public
Packit bbb0ff
License is intended to guarantee your freedom to share and change free
Packit bbb0ff
software--to make sure the software is free for all its users.  This
Packit bbb0ff
General Public License applies to most of the Free Software
Packit bbb0ff
Foundation's software and to any other program whose authors commit to
Packit bbb0ff
using it.  (Some other Free Software Foundation software is covered by
Packit bbb0ff
the GNU Library General Public License instead.)  You can apply it to
Packit bbb0ff
your programs, too.
Packit bbb0ff
Packit bbb0ff
  When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not
Packit bbb0ff
price.  Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that you
Packit bbb0ff
have the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge for
Packit bbb0ff
this service if you wish), that you receive source code or can get it
Packit bbb0ff
if you want it, that you can change the software or use pieces of it
Packit bbb0ff
in new free programs; and that you know you can do these things.
Packit bbb0ff
Packit bbb0ff
  To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that forbid
Packit bbb0ff
anyone to deny you these rights or to ask you to surrender the rights.
Packit bbb0ff
These restrictions translate to certain responsibilities for you if you
Packit bbb0ff
distribute copies of the software, or if you modify it.
Packit bbb0ff
Packit bbb0ff
  For example, if you distribute copies of such a program, whether
Packit bbb0ff
gratis or for a fee, you must give the recipients all the rights that
Packit bbb0ff
you have.  You must make sure that they, too, receive or can get the
Packit bbb0ff
source code.  And you must show them these terms so they know their
Packit bbb0ff
rights.
Packit bbb0ff
Packit bbb0ff
  We protect your rights with two steps: (1) copyright the software, and
Packit bbb0ff
(2) offer you this license which gives you legal permission to copy,
Packit bbb0ff
distribute and/or modify the software.
Packit bbb0ff
Packit bbb0ff
  Also, for each author's protection and ours, we want to make certain
Packit bbb0ff
that everyone understands that there is no warranty for this free
Packit bbb0ff
software.  If the software is modified by someone else and passed on, we
Packit bbb0ff
want its recipients to know that what they have is not the original, so
Packit bbb0ff
that any problems introduced by others will not reflect on the original
Packit bbb0ff
authors' reputations.
Packit bbb0ff
Packit bbb0ff
  Finally, any free program is threatened constantly by software
Packit bbb0ff
patents.  We wish to avoid the danger that redistributors of a free
Packit bbb0ff
program will individually obtain patent licenses, in effect making the
Packit bbb0ff
program proprietary.  To prevent this, we have made it clear that any
Packit bbb0ff
patent must be licensed for everyone's free use or not licensed at all.
Packit bbb0ff
Packit bbb0ff
  The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and
Packit bbb0ff
modification follow.
Packit bbb0ff
Packit bbb0ff
		    GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE
Packit bbb0ff
   TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION
Packit bbb0ff
Packit bbb0ff
  0. This License applies to any program or other work which contains
Packit bbb0ff
a notice placed by the copyright holder saying it may be distributed
Packit bbb0ff
under the terms of this General Public License.  The "Program", below,
Packit bbb0ff
refers to any such program or work, and a "work based on the Program"
Packit bbb0ff
means either the Program or any derivative work under copyright law:
Packit bbb0ff
that is to say, a work containing the Program or a portion of it,
Packit bbb0ff
either verbatim or with modifications and/or translated into another
Packit bbb0ff
language.  (Hereinafter, translation is included without limitation in
Packit bbb0ff
the term "modification".)  Each licensee is addressed as "you".
Packit bbb0ff
Packit bbb0ff
Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are not
Packit bbb0ff
covered by this License; they are outside its scope.  The act of
Packit bbb0ff
running the Program is not restricted, and the output from the Program
Packit bbb0ff
is covered only if its contents constitute a work based on the
Packit bbb0ff
Program (independent of having been made by running the Program).
Packit bbb0ff
Whether that is true depends on what the Program does.
Packit bbb0ff
Packit bbb0ff
  1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Program's
Packit bbb0ff
source code as you receive it, in any medium, provided that you
Packit bbb0ff
conspicuously and appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate
Packit bbb0ff
copyright notice and disclaimer of warranty; keep intact all the
Packit bbb0ff
notices that refer to this License and to the absence of any warranty;
Packit bbb0ff
and give any other recipients of the Program a copy of this License
Packit bbb0ff
along with the Program.
Packit bbb0ff
Packit bbb0ff
You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy, and
Packit bbb0ff
you may at your option offer warranty protection in exchange for a fee.
Packit bbb0ff
Packit bbb0ff
  2. You may modify your copy or copies of the Program or any portion
Packit bbb0ff
of it, thus forming a work based on the Program, and copy and
Packit bbb0ff
distribute such modifications or work under the terms of Section 1
Packit bbb0ff
above, provided that you also meet all of these conditions:
Packit bbb0ff
Packit bbb0ff
    a) You must cause the modified files to carry prominent notices
Packit bbb0ff
    stating that you changed the files and the date of any change.
Packit bbb0ff
Packit bbb0ff
    b) You must cause any work that you distribute or publish, that in
Packit bbb0ff
    whole or in part contains or is derived from the Program or any
Packit bbb0ff
    part thereof, to be licensed as a whole at no charge to all third
Packit bbb0ff
    parties under the terms of this License.
Packit bbb0ff
Packit bbb0ff
    c) If the modified program normally reads commands interactively
Packit bbb0ff
    when run, you must cause it, when started running for such
Packit bbb0ff
    interactive use in the most ordinary way, to print or display an
Packit bbb0ff
    announcement including an appropriate copyright notice and a
Packit bbb0ff
    notice that there is no warranty (or else, saying that you provide
Packit bbb0ff
    a warranty) and that users may redistribute the program under
Packit bbb0ff
    these conditions, and telling the user how to view a copy of this
Packit bbb0ff
    License.  (Exception: if the Program itself is interactive but
Packit bbb0ff
    does not normally print such an announcement, your work based on
Packit bbb0ff
    the Program is not required to print an announcement.)
Packit bbb0ff
Packit bbb0ff
These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole.  If
Packit bbb0ff
identifiable sections of that work are not derived from the Program,
Packit bbb0ff
and can be reasonably considered independent and separate works in
Packit bbb0ff
themselves, then this License, and its terms, do not apply to those
Packit bbb0ff
sections when you distribute them as separate works.  But when you
Packit bbb0ff
distribute the same sections as part of a whole which is a work based
Packit bbb0ff
on the Program, the distribution of the whole must be on the terms of
Packit bbb0ff
this License, whose permissions for other licensees extend to the
Packit bbb0ff
entire whole, and thus to each and every part regardless of who wrote it.
Packit bbb0ff
Packit bbb0ff
Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest
Packit bbb0ff
your rights to work written entirely by you; rather, the intent is to
Packit bbb0ff
exercise the right to control the distribution of derivative or
Packit bbb0ff
collective works based on the Program.
Packit bbb0ff
Packit bbb0ff
In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the Program
Packit bbb0ff
with the Program (or with a work based on the Program) on a volume of
Packit bbb0ff
a storage or distribution medium does not bring the other work under
Packit bbb0ff
the scope of this License.
Packit bbb0ff
Packit bbb0ff
  3. You may copy and distribute the Program (or a work based on it,
Packit bbb0ff
under Section 2) in object code or executable form under the terms of
Packit bbb0ff
Sections 1 and 2 above provided that you also do one of the following:
Packit bbb0ff
Packit bbb0ff
    a) Accompany it with the complete corresponding machine-readable
Packit bbb0ff
    source code, which must be distributed under the terms of Sections
Packit bbb0ff
    1 and 2 above on a medium customarily used for software
Packit bbb0ff
    interchange; or,
Packit bbb0ff
Packit bbb0ff
    b) Accompany it with a written offer, valid for at least three
Packit bbb0ff
    years, to give any third party, for a charge no more than your
Packit bbb0ff
    cost of physically performing source distribution, a complete
Packit bbb0ff
    machine-readable copy of the corresponding source code, to be
Packit bbb0ff
    distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium
Packit bbb0ff
    customarily used for software interchange; or,
Packit bbb0ff
Packit bbb0ff
    c) Accompany it with the information you received as to the offer
Packit bbb0ff
    to distribute corresponding source code.  (This alternative is
Packit bbb0ff
    allowed only for noncommercial distribution and only if you
Packit bbb0ff
    received the program in object code or executable form with such
Packit bbb0ff
    an offer, in accord with Subsection b above.)
Packit bbb0ff
Packit bbb0ff
The source code for a work means the preferred form of the work for
Packit bbb0ff
making modifications to it.  For an executable work, complete source
Packit bbb0ff
code means all the source code for all modules it contains, plus any
Packit bbb0ff
associated interface definition files, plus the scripts used to
Packit bbb0ff
control compilation and installation of the executable.  However, as a
Packit bbb0ff
special exception, the source code distributed need not include
Packit bbb0ff
anything that is normally distributed (in either source or binary
Packit bbb0ff
form) with the major components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of the
Packit bbb0ff
operating system on which the executable runs, unless that component
Packit bbb0ff
itself accompanies the executable.
Packit bbb0ff
Packit bbb0ff
If distribution of executable or object code is made by offering
Packit bbb0ff
access to copy from a designated place, then offering equivalent
Packit bbb0ff
access to copy the source code from the same place counts as
Packit bbb0ff
distribution of the source code, even though third parties are not
Packit bbb0ff
compelled to copy the source along with the object code.
Packit bbb0ff
Packit bbb0ff
  4. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the Program
Packit bbb0ff
except as expressly provided under this License.  Any attempt
Packit bbb0ff
otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense or distribute the Program is
Packit bbb0ff
void, and will automatically terminate your rights under this License.
Packit bbb0ff
However, parties who have received copies, or rights, from you under
Packit bbb0ff
this License will not have their licenses terminated so long as such
Packit bbb0ff
parties remain in full compliance.
Packit bbb0ff
Packit bbb0ff
  5. You are not required to accept this License, since you have not
Packit bbb0ff
signed it.  However, nothing else grants you permission to modify or
Packit bbb0ff
distribute the Program or its derivative works.  These actions are
Packit bbb0ff
prohibited by law if you do not accept this License.  Therefore, by
Packit bbb0ff
modifying or distributing the Program (or any work based on the
Packit bbb0ff
Program), you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so, and
Packit bbb0ff
all its terms and conditions for copying, distributing or modifying
Packit bbb0ff
the Program or works based on it.
Packit bbb0ff
Packit bbb0ff
  6. Each time you redistribute the Program (or any work based on the
Packit bbb0ff
Program), the recipient automatically receives a license from the
Packit bbb0ff
original licensor to copy, distribute or modify the Program subject to
Packit bbb0ff
these terms and conditions.  You may not impose any further
Packit bbb0ff
restrictions on the recipients' exercise of the rights granted herein.
Packit bbb0ff
You are not responsible for enforcing compliance by third parties to
Packit bbb0ff
this License.
Packit bbb0ff
Packit bbb0ff
  7. If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent
Packit bbb0ff
infringement or for any other reason (not limited to patent issues),
Packit bbb0ff
conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or
Packit bbb0ff
otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not
Packit bbb0ff
excuse you from the conditions of this License.  If you cannot
Packit bbb0ff
distribute so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this
Packit bbb0ff
License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you
Packit bbb0ff
may not distribute the Program at all.  For example, if a patent
Packit bbb0ff
license would not permit royalty-free redistribution of the Program by
Packit bbb0ff
all those who receive copies directly or indirectly through you, then
Packit bbb0ff
the only way you could satisfy both it and this License would be to
Packit bbb0ff
refrain entirely from distribution of the Program.
Packit bbb0ff
Packit bbb0ff
If any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable under
Packit bbb0ff
any particular circumstance, the balance of the section is intended to
Packit bbb0ff
apply and the section as a whole is intended to apply in other
Packit bbb0ff
circumstances.
Packit bbb0ff
Packit bbb0ff
It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe any
Packit bbb0ff
patents or other property right claims or to contest validity of any
Packit bbb0ff
such claims; this section has the sole purpose of protecting the
Packit bbb0ff
integrity of the free software distribution system, which is
Packit bbb0ff
implemented by public license practices.  Many people have made
Packit bbb0ff
generous contributions to the wide range of software distributed
Packit bbb0ff
through that system in reliance on consistent application of that
Packit bbb0ff
system; it is up to the author/donor to decide if he or she is willing
Packit bbb0ff
to distribute software through any other system and a licensee cannot
Packit bbb0ff
impose that choice.
Packit bbb0ff
Packit bbb0ff
This section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is believed to
Packit bbb0ff
be a consequence of the rest of this License.
Packit bbb0ff
Packit bbb0ff
  8. If the distribution and/or use of the Program is restricted in
Packit bbb0ff
certain countries either by patents or by copyrighted interfaces, the
Packit bbb0ff
original copyright holder who places the Program under this License
Packit bbb0ff
may add an explicit geographical distribution limitation excluding
Packit bbb0ff
those countries, so that distribution is permitted only in or among
Packit bbb0ff
countries not thus excluded.  In such case, this License incorporates
Packit bbb0ff
the limitation as if written in the body of this License.
Packit bbb0ff
Packit bbb0ff
  9. The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions
Packit bbb0ff
of the General Public License from time to time.  Such new versions will
Packit bbb0ff
be similar in spirit to the present version, but may differ in detail to
Packit bbb0ff
address new problems or concerns.
Packit bbb0ff
Packit bbb0ff
Each version is given a distinguishing version number.  If the Program
Packit bbb0ff
specifies a version number of this License which applies to it and
Packit bbb0ff
"any later version", you have the option of following the terms and
Packit bbb0ff
conditions either of that version or of any later version published by
Packit bbb0ff
the Free Software Foundation.  If the Program does not specify a
Packit bbb0ff
version number of this License, you may choose any version ever
Packit bbb0ff
published by the Free Software Foundation.
Packit bbb0ff
Packit bbb0ff
  10. If you wish to incorporate parts of the Program into other free
Packit bbb0ff
programs whose distribution conditions are different, write to the author
Packit bbb0ff
to ask for permission.  For software which is copyrighted by the Free
Packit bbb0ff
Software Foundation, write to the Free Software Foundation; we sometimes
Packit bbb0ff
make exceptions for this.  Our decision will be guided by the two goals
Packit bbb0ff
of preserving the free status of all derivatives of our free software and
Packit bbb0ff
of promoting the sharing and reuse of software generally.
Packit bbb0ff
Packit bbb0ff
			    NO WARRANTY
Packit bbb0ff
Packit bbb0ff
  11. BECAUSE THE PROGRAM IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE, THERE IS NO
Packit bbb0ff
WARRANTY FOR THE PROGRAM, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW.
Packit bbb0ff
EXCEPT WHEN OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS AND/OR
Packit bbb0ff
OTHER PARTIES PROVIDE THE PROGRAM "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY
Packit bbb0ff
KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE
Packit bbb0ff
IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR
Packit bbb0ff
PURPOSE.  THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE
Packit bbb0ff
PROGRAM IS WITH YOU.  SHOULD THE PROGRAM PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME
Packit bbb0ff
THE COST OF ALL NECESSARY SERVICING, REPAIR OR CORRECTION.
Packit bbb0ff
Packit bbb0ff
  12. IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN
Packit bbb0ff
WRITING WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MAY MODIFY
Packit bbb0ff
AND/OR REDISTRIBUTE THE PROGRAM AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU
Packit bbb0ff
FOR DAMAGES, INCLUDING ANY GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR
Packit bbb0ff
CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE
Packit bbb0ff
PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF DATA OR DATA BEING
Packit bbb0ff
RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY YOU OR THIRD PARTIES OR A
Packit bbb0ff
FAILURE OF THE PROGRAM TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER PROGRAMS), EVEN IF
Packit bbb0ff
SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH
Packit bbb0ff
DAMAGES.
Packit bbb0ff
Packit bbb0ff
		     END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS
Packit bbb0ff
Packit bbb0ff
	    How to Apply These Terms to Your New Programs
Packit bbb0ff
Packit bbb0ff
  If you develop a new program, and you want it to be of the greatest
Packit bbb0ff
possible use to the public, the best way to achieve this is to make it
Packit bbb0ff
free software which everyone can redistribute and change under these
Packit bbb0ff
terms.
Packit bbb0ff
Packit bbb0ff
  To do so, attach the following notices to the program.  It is safest
Packit bbb0ff
to attach them to the start of each source file to most effectively
Packit bbb0ff
convey the exclusion of warranty; and each file should have at least
Packit bbb0ff
the "copyright" line and a pointer to where the full notice is found.
Packit bbb0ff
Packit bbb0ff
    <one line to give the program's name and a brief idea of what it does.>
Packit bbb0ff
    Copyright (C) <year>  <name of author>
Packit bbb0ff
Packit bbb0ff
    This program is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify
Packit bbb0ff
    it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by
Packit bbb0ff
    the Free Software Foundation; either version 2 of the License, or
Packit bbb0ff
    (at your option) any later version.
Packit bbb0ff
Packit bbb0ff
    This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful,
Packit bbb0ff
    but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of
Packit bbb0ff
    MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.  See the
Packit bbb0ff
    GNU General Public License for more details.
Packit bbb0ff
Packit bbb0ff
    You should have received a copy of the GNU General Public License
Packit bbb0ff
    along with this program; if not, write to the Free Software
Packit bbb0ff
    Foundation, Inc., 51 Franklin Street, Fifth Floor, Boston, MA  02110-1301, USA
Packit bbb0ff
Packit bbb0ff
Packit bbb0ff
Also add information on how to contact you by electronic and paper mail.
Packit bbb0ff
Packit bbb0ff
If the program is interactive, make it output a short notice like this
Packit bbb0ff
when it starts in an interactive mode:
Packit bbb0ff
Packit bbb0ff
    Gnomovision version 69, Copyright (C) year name of author
Packit bbb0ff
    Gnomovision comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY; for details type `show w'.
Packit bbb0ff
    This is free software, and you are welcome to redistribute it
Packit bbb0ff
    under certain conditions; type `show c' for details.
Packit bbb0ff
Packit bbb0ff
The hypothetical commands `show w' and `show c' should show the appropriate
Packit bbb0ff
parts of the General Public License.  Of course, the commands you use may
Packit bbb0ff
be called something other than `show w' and `show c'; they could even be
Packit bbb0ff
mouse-clicks or menu items--whatever suits your program.
Packit bbb0ff
Packit bbb0ff
You should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer) or your
Packit bbb0ff
school, if any, to sign a "copyright disclaimer" for the program, if
Packit bbb0ff
necessary.  Here is a sample; alter the names:
Packit bbb0ff
Packit bbb0ff
  Yoyodyne, Inc., hereby disclaims all copyright interest in the program
Packit bbb0ff
  `Gnomovision' (which makes passes at compilers) written by James Hacker.

Packit bbb0ff
Packit bbb0ff
This General Public License does not permit incorporating your program into
Packit bbb0ff
proprietary programs.  If your program is a subroutine library, you may
Packit bbb0ff
consider it more useful to permit linking proprietary applications with the
Packit bbb0ff
library.  If this is what you want to do, use the GNU Library General
Packit bbb0ff
Public License instead of this License.
Packit bbb0ff
