 Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies
Packit 89ede9
 of this license document, but changing it is not allowed.
Packit 89ede9
Packit 89ede9
			    Preamble
Packit 89ede9
Packit 89ede9
  The licenses for most software are designed to take away your
Packit 89ede9
freedom to share and change it.  By contrast, the GNU General Public
Packit 89ede9
License is intended to guarantee your freedom to share and change free
Packit 89ede9
software--to make sure the software is free for all its users.  This
Packit 89ede9
General Public License applies to most of the Free Software
Packit 89ede9
Foundation's software and to any other program whose authors commit to
Packit 89ede9
using it.  (Some other Free Software Foundation software is covered by
Packit 89ede9
the GNU Library General Public License instead.)  You can apply it to
Packit 89ede9
your programs, too.
Packit 89ede9
Packit 89ede9
  When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not
Packit 89ede9
price.  Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that you
Packit 89ede9
have the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge for
Packit 89ede9
this service if you wish), that you receive source code or can get it
Packit 89ede9
if you want it, that you can change the software or use pieces of it
Packit 89ede9
in new free programs; and that you know you can do these things.
Packit 89ede9
Packit 89ede9
  To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that forbid
Packit 89ede9
anyone to deny you these rights or to ask you to surrender the rights.
Packit 89ede9
These restrictions translate to certain responsibilities for you if you
Packit 89ede9
distribute copies of the software, or if you modify it.
Packit 89ede9
Packit 89ede9
  For example, if you distribute copies of such a program, whether
Packit 89ede9
gratis or for a fee, you must give the recipients all the rights that
Packit 89ede9
you have.  You must make sure that they, too, receive or can get the
Packit 89ede9
source code.  And you must show them these terms so they know their
Packit 89ede9
rights.
Packit 89ede9
Packit 89ede9
  We protect your rights with two steps: (1) copyright the software, and
Packit 89ede9
(2) offer you this license which gives you legal permission to copy,
Packit 89ede9
distribute and/or modify the software.
Packit 89ede9
Packit 89ede9
  Also, for each author's protection and ours, we want to make certain
Packit 89ede9
that everyone understands that there is no warranty for this free
Packit 89ede9
software.  If the software is modified by someone else and passed on, we
Packit 89ede9
want its recipients to know that what they have is not the original, so
Packit 89ede9
that any problems introduced by others will not reflect on the original
Packit 89ede9
authors' reputations.
Packit 89ede9
Packit 89ede9
  Finally, any free program is threatened constantly by software
Packit 89ede9
patents.  We wish to avoid the danger that redistributors of a free
Packit 89ede9
program will individually obtain patent licenses, in effect making the
Packit 89ede9
program proprietary.  To prevent this, we have made it clear that any
Packit 89ede9
patent must be licensed for everyone's free use or not licensed at all.
Packit 89ede9
Packit 89ede9
  The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and
Packit 89ede9
modification follow.
Packit 89ede9

Packit 89ede9
		    GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE
Packit 89ede9
   TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION
Packit 89ede9
Packit 89ede9
  0. This License applies to any program or other work which contains
Packit 89ede9
a notice placed by the copyright holder saying it may be distributed
Packit 89ede9
under the terms of this General Public License.  The "Program", below,
Packit 89ede9
refers to any such program or work, and a "work based on the Program"
Packit 89ede9
means either the Program or any derivative work under copyright law:
Packit 89ede9
that is to say, a work containing the Program or a portion of it,
Packit 89ede9
either verbatim or with modifications and/or translated into another
Packit 89ede9
language.  (Hereinafter, translation is included without limitation in
Packit 89ede9
the term "modification".)  Each licensee is addressed as "you".
Packit 89ede9
Packit 89ede9
Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are not
Packit 89ede9
covered by this License; they are outside its scope.  The act of
Packit 89ede9
running the Program is not restricted, and the output from the Program
Packit 89ede9
is covered only if its contents constitute a work based on the
Packit 89ede9
Program (independent of having been made by running the Program).
Packit 89ede9
Whether that is true depends on what the Program does.
Packit 89ede9
Packit 89ede9
  1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Program's
Packit 89ede9
source code as you receive it, in any medium, provided that you
Packit 89ede9
conspicuously and appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate
Packit 89ede9
copyright notice and disclaimer of warranty; keep intact all the
Packit 89ede9
notices that refer to this License and to the absence of any warranty;
Packit 89ede9
and give any other recipients of the Program a copy of this License
Packit 89ede9
along with the Program.
Packit 89ede9
Packit 89ede9
You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy, and
Packit 89ede9
you may at your option offer warranty protection in exchange for a fee.
Packit 89ede9
Packit 89ede9
  2. You may modify your copy or copies of the Program or any portion
Packit 89ede9
of it, thus forming a work based on the Program, and copy and
Packit 89ede9
distribute such modifications or work under the terms of Section 1
Packit 89ede9
above, provided that you also meet all of these conditions:
Packit 89ede9
Packit 89ede9
    a) You must cause the modified files to carry prominent notices
Packit 89ede9
    stating that you changed the files and the date of any change.
Packit 89ede9
Packit 89ede9
    b) You must cause any work that you distribute or publish, that in
Packit 89ede9
    whole or in part contains or is derived from the Program or any
Packit 89ede9
    part thereof, to be licensed as a whole at no charge to all third
Packit 89ede9
    parties under the terms of this License.
Packit 89ede9
Packit 89ede9
    c) If the modified program normally reads commands interactively
Packit 89ede9
    when run, you must cause it, when started running for such
Packit 89ede9
    interactive use in the most ordinary way, to print or display an
Packit 89ede9
    announcement including an appropriate copyright notice and a
Packit 89ede9
    notice that there is no warranty (or else, saying that you provide
Packit 89ede9
    a warranty) and that users may redistribute the program under
Packit 89ede9
    these conditions, and telling the user how to view a copy of this
Packit 89ede9
    License.  (Exception: if the Program itself is interactive but
Packit 89ede9
    does not normally print such an announcement, your work based on
Packit 89ede9
    the Program is not required to print an announcement.)
Packit 89ede9

Packit 89ede9
These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole.  If
Packit 89ede9
identifiable sections of that work are not derived from the Program,
Packit 89ede9
and can be reasonably considered independent and separate works in
Packit 89ede9
themselves, then this License, and its terms, do not apply to those
Packit 89ede9
sections when you distribute them as separate works.  But when you
Packit 89ede9
distribute the same sections as part of a whole which is a work based
Packit 89ede9
on the Program, the distribution of the whole must be on the terms of
Packit 89ede9
this License, whose permissions for other licensees extend to the
Packit 89ede9
entire whole, and thus to each and every part regardless of who wrote it.
Packit 89ede9
Packit 89ede9
Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest
Packit 89ede9
your rights to work written entirely by you; rather, the intent is to
Packit 89ede9
exercise the right to control the distribution of derivative or
Packit 89ede9
collective works based on the Program.
Packit 89ede9
Packit 89ede9
In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the Program
Packit 89ede9
with the Program (or with a work based on the Program) on a volume of
Packit 89ede9
a storage or distribution medium does not bring the other work under
Packit 89ede9
the scope of this License.
Packit 89ede9
Packit 89ede9
  3. You may copy and distribute the Program (or a work based on it,
Packit 89ede9
under Section 2) in object code or executable form under the terms of
Packit 89ede9
Sections 1 and 2 above provided that you also do one of the following:
Packit 89ede9
Packit 89ede9
    a) Accompany it with the complete corresponding machine-readable
Packit 89ede9
    source code, which must be distributed under the terms of Sections
Packit 89ede9
    1 and 2 above on a medium customarily used for software interchange; or,
Packit 89ede9
Packit 89ede9
    b) Accompany it with a written offer, valid for at least three
Packit 89ede9
    years, to give any third party, for a charge no more than your
Packit 89ede9
    cost of physically performing source distribution, a complete
Packit 89ede9
    machine-readable copy of the corresponding source code, to be
Packit 89ede9
    distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium
Packit 89ede9
    customarily used for software interchange; or,
Packit 89ede9
Packit 89ede9
    c) Accompany it with the information you received as to the offer
Packit 89ede9
    to distribute corresponding source code.  (This alternative is
Packit 89ede9
    allowed only for noncommercial distribution and only if you
Packit 89ede9
    received the program in object code or executable form with such
Packit 89ede9
    an offer, in accord with Subsection b above.)
Packit 89ede9
Packit 89ede9
The source code for a work means the preferred form of the work for
Packit 89ede9
making modifications to it.  For an executable work, complete source
Packit 89ede9
code means all the source code for all modules it contains, plus any
Packit 89ede9
associated interface definition files, plus the scripts used to
Packit 89ede9
control compilation and installation of the executable.  However, as a
Packit 89ede9
special exception, the source code distributed need not include
Packit 89ede9
anything that is normally distributed (in either source or binary
Packit 89ede9
form) with the major components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of the
Packit 89ede9
operating system on which the executable runs, unless that component
Packit 89ede9
itself accompanies the executable.
Packit 89ede9
Packit 89ede9
If distribution of executable or object code is made by offering
Packit 89ede9
access to copy from a designated place, then offering equivalent
Packit 89ede9
access to copy the source code from the same place counts as
Packit 89ede9
distribution of the source code, even though third parties are not
Packit 89ede9
compelled to copy the source along with the object code.
Packit 89ede9

Packit 89ede9
  4. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the Program
Packit 89ede9
except as expressly provided under this License.  Any attempt
Packit 89ede9
otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense or distribute the Program is
Packit 89ede9
void, and will automatically terminate your rights under this License.
Packit 89ede9
However, parties who have received copies, or rights, from you under
Packit 89ede9
this License will not have their licenses terminated so long as such
Packit 89ede9
parties remain in full compliance.
Packit 89ede9
Packit 89ede9
  5. You are not required to accept this License, since you have not
Packit 89ede9
signed it.  However, nothing else grants you permission to modify or
Packit 89ede9
distribute the Program or its derivative works.  These actions are
Packit 89ede9
prohibited by law if you do not accept this License.  Therefore, by
Packit 89ede9
modifying or distributing the Program (or any work based on the
Packit 89ede9
Program), you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so, and
Packit 89ede9
all its terms and conditions for copying, distributing or modifying
Packit 89ede9
the Program or works based on it.
Packit 89ede9
Packit 89ede9
  6. Each time you redistribute the Program (or any work based on the
Packit 89ede9
Program), the recipient automatically receives a license from the
Packit 89ede9
original licensor to copy, distribute or modify the Program subject to
Packit 89ede9
these terms and conditions.  You may not impose any further
Packit 89ede9
restrictions on the recipients' exercise of the rights granted herein.
Packit 89ede9
You are not responsible for enforcing compliance by third parties to
Packit 89ede9
this License.
Packit 89ede9
Packit 89ede9
  7. If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent
Packit 89ede9
infringement or for any other reason (not limited to patent issues),
Packit 89ede9
conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or
Packit 89ede9
otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not
Packit 89ede9
excuse you from the conditions of this License.  If you cannot
Packit 89ede9
distribute so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this
Packit 89ede9
License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you
Packit 89ede9
may not distribute the Program at all.  For example, if a patent
Packit 89ede9
license would not permit royalty-free redistribution of the Program by
Packit 89ede9
all those who receive copies directly or indirectly through you, then
Packit 89ede9
the only way you could satisfy both it and this License would be to
Packit 89ede9
refrain entirely from distribution of the Program.
Packit 89ede9
Packit 89ede9
If any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable under
Packit 89ede9
any particular circumstance, the balance of the section is intended to
Packit 89ede9
apply and the section as a whole is intended to apply in other
Packit 89ede9
circumstances.
Packit 89ede9
Packit 89ede9
It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe any
Packit 89ede9
patents or other property right claims or to contest validity of any
Packit 89ede9
such claims; this section has the sole purpose of protecting the
Packit 89ede9
integrity of the free software distribution system, which is
Packit 89ede9
implemented by public license practices.  Many people have made
Packit 89ede9
generous contributions to the wide range of software distributed
Packit 89ede9
through that system in reliance on consistent application of that
Packit 89ede9
system; it is up to the author/donor to decide if he or she is willing
Packit 89ede9
to distribute software through any other system and a licensee cannot
Packit 89ede9
impose that choice.
Packit 89ede9
Packit 89ede9
This section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is believed to
Packit 89ede9
be a consequence of the rest of this License.
Packit 89ede9

Packit 89ede9
  8. If the distribution and/or use of the Program is restricted in
Packit 89ede9
certain countries either by patents or by copyrighted interfaces, the
Packit 89ede9
original copyright holder who places the Program under this License
Packit 89ede9
may add an explicit geographical distribution limitation excluding
Packit 89ede9
those countries, so that distribution is permitted only in or among
Packit 89ede9
countries not thus excluded.  In such case, this License incorporates
Packit 89ede9
the limitation as if written in the body of this License.
Packit 89ede9
Packit 89ede9
  9. The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions
Packit 89ede9
of the General Public License from time to time.  Such new versions will
Packit 89ede9
be similar in spirit to the present version, but may differ in detail to
Packit 89ede9
address new problems or concerns.
Packit 89ede9
Packit 89ede9
Each version is given a distinguishing version number.  If the Program
Packit 89ede9
specifies a version number of this License which applies to it and "any
Packit 89ede9
later version", you have the option of following the terms and conditions
Packit 89ede9
either of that version or of any later version published by the Free
Packit 89ede9
Software Foundation.  If the Program does not specify a version number of
Packit 89ede9
this License, you may choose any version ever published by the Free Software
Packit 89ede9
Foundation.
Packit 89ede9
Packit 89ede9
  10. If you wish to incorporate parts of the Program into other free
Packit 89ede9
programs whose distribution conditions are different, write to the author
Packit 89ede9
to ask for permission.  For software which is copyrighted by the Free
Packit 89ede9
Software Foundation, write to the Free Software Foundation; we sometimes
Packit 89ede9
make exceptions for this.  Our decision will be guided by the two goals
Packit 89ede9
of preserving the free status of all derivatives of our free software and
Packit 89ede9
of promoting the sharing and reuse of software generally.
Packit 89ede9
Packit 89ede9
			    NO WARRANTY
Packit 89ede9
Packit 89ede9
  11. BECAUSE THE PROGRAM IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE, THERE IS NO WARRANTY
Packit 89ede9
FOR THE PROGRAM, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW.  EXCEPT WHEN
Packit 89ede9
OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER PARTIES
Packit 89ede9
PROVIDE THE PROGRAM "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED
Packit 89ede9
OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF
Packit 89ede9
MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.  THE ENTIRE RISK AS
Packit 89ede9
TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE PROGRAM IS WITH YOU.  SHOULD THE
Packit 89ede9
PROGRAM PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE COST OF ALL NECESSARY SERVICING,
Packit 89ede9
REPAIR OR CORRECTION.
Packit 89ede9
Packit 89ede9
  12. IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN WRITING
Packit 89ede9
WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MAY MODIFY AND/OR
Packit 89ede9
REDISTRIBUTE THE PROGRAM AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES,
Packit 89ede9
INCLUDING ANY GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING
Packit 89ede9
OUT OF THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED
Packit 89ede9
TO LOSS OF DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY
Packit 89ede9
YOU OR THIRD PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF THE PROGRAM TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER
Packit 89ede9
PROGRAMS), EVEN IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE
Packit 89ede9
POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
Packit 89ede9
Packit 89ede9
		     END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS
Packit 89ede9

Packit 89ede9
	    How to Apply These Terms to Your New Programs
Packit 89ede9
Packit 89ede9
  If you develop a new program, and you want it to be of the greatest
Packit 89ede9
possible use to the public, the best way to achieve this is to make it
Packit 89ede9
free software which everyone can redistribute and change under these terms.
Packit 89ede9
Packit 89ede9
  To do so, attach the following notices to the program.  It is safest
Packit 89ede9
to attach them to the start of each source file to most effectively
Packit 89ede9
convey the exclusion of warranty; and each file should have at least
Packit 89ede9
the "copyright" line and a pointer to where the full notice is found.
Packit 89ede9
Packit 89ede9
    <one line to give the program's name and a brief idea of what it does.>
Packit 89ede9
    Copyright (C) <year>  <name of author>
Packit 89ede9
Packit 89ede9
    This program is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify
Packit 89ede9
    it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by
Packit 89ede9
    the Free Software Foundation; either version 2 of the License, or
Packit 89ede9
    (at your option) any later version.
Packit 89ede9
Packit 89ede9
    This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful,
Packit 89ede9
    but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of
Packit 89ede9
    MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.  See the
Packit 89ede9
    GNU General Public License for more details.
Packit 89ede9
Packit 89ede9
    You should have received a copy of the GNU General Public License
Packit 89ede9
    along with this program; if not, write to the Free Software
Packit 89ede9
    Foundation, Inc., 59 Temple Place, Suite 330, Boston, MA  02111-1307  USA
Packit 89ede9
Packit 89ede9
Packit 89ede9
Also add information on how to contact you by electronic and paper mail.
Packit 89ede9
Packit 89ede9
If the program is interactive, make it output a short notice like this
Packit 89ede9
when it starts in an interactive mode:
Packit 89ede9
Packit 89ede9
    Gnomovision version 69, Copyright (C) year  name of author
Packit 89ede9
    Gnomovision comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY; for details type `show w'.
Packit 89ede9
    This is free software, and you are welcome to redistribute it
Packit 89ede9
    under certain conditions; type `show c' for details.
Packit 89ede9
Packit 89ede9
The hypothetical commands `show w' and `show c' should show the appropriate
Packit 89ede9
parts of the General Public License.  Of course, the commands you use may
Packit 89ede9
be called something other than `show w' and `show c'; they could even be
Packit 89ede9
mouse-clicks or menu items--whatever suits your program.
Packit 89ede9
Packit 89ede9
You should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer) or your
Packit 89ede9
school, if any, to sign a "copyright disclaimer" for the program, if
Packit 89ede9
necessary.  Here is a sample; alter the names:
Packit 89ede9
Packit 89ede9
  Yoyodyne, Inc., hereby disclaims all copyright interest in the program
Packit 89ede9
  `Gnomovision' (which makes passes at compilers) written by James Hacker.

Packit 89ede9
Packit 89ede9
This General Public License does not permit incorporating your program into
Packit 89ede9
proprietary programs.  If your program is a subroutine library, you may
Packit 89ede9
consider it more useful to permit linking proprietary applications with the
Packit 89ede9
library.  If this is what you want to do, use the GNU Library General
Packit 89ede9
Public License instead of this License.
