designed to make su

re that you have the freedom to

dist

ribute copies of free software (and charge for this

se

rvice if you wish), that you receive source code or can get

it if you want it, that you can change the softwa

re or use

pieces of it in new free programs; and that you know you
can do these things.
To

protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that

fo

rbid anyone to deny you these rights or to ask you to

su

rrender the rights. These restrictions translate to certain

responsibilities for you if you distribute copies of the
softwa

re, or if you modify it.

Fo

r example, if you distribute copies of such a program,

whethe

r gratis or for a fee, you must give the recipients all

the

rights that you have. You must make sure that they, too,

receive or can get the source code. And you must show
them these te

rms so they know their rights.

We

protect your rights with two steps: (1) copyright the

softwa

re, and (2) offer you this license which gives you legal

permission to copy, distribute and/or modify the software.
Also, fo

r each author’s protection and ours, we want to

make ce

rtain that everyone understands that there is no

wa

rranty for this free software. If the software is modified by

someone else and

passed on, we want its recipients to

know that what they have is not the o

riginal, so that any

problems introduced by others will not reflect on the
o

riginal authors’ reputations.

Finally, any f

ree program is threatened constantly by

softwa

re patents. We wish to avoid the danger that

redistributors of a free program will individually obtain
patent licenses, in effect making the program proprietary.
To

prevent this, we have made it clear that any patent must

be licensed fo

r everyone’s free use or not licensed at all.

The

precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution

and modification follow.
TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING,
DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION
0. This License a

pplies to any program or other work which

contains a notice

placed by the copyright holder saying it

may be dist

ributed under the terms of this General Public

License. The “P

rogram”, below, refers to any such

program or work, and a “work based on the Program”
means eithe

r the Program or any derivative work under

co

pyright law: that is to say, a work containing the

P

rogram or a portion of it, either verbatim or with

modifications and/o

r translated into another language.

(He

reinafter, translation is included without limitation in

the te

rm “modification”.) Each licensee is addressed as

“you”.
Activities othe

r than copying, distribution and

modification a

re not covered by this License; they are

outside its sco

pe. The act of running the Program is not

restricted, and the output from the Program is covered
only if its contents constitute a wo

rk based on the

P

rogram (independent of having been made by running

the P

rogram). Whether that is true depends on what the

P

rogram does.

1. You may co

py and distribute verbatim copies of the

P

rogram’s source code as you receive it, in any medium,

provided that you conspicuously and appropriately
publish on each copy an appropriate copyright notice
and disclaime

r of warranty; keep intact all the notices

that

refer to this License and to the absence of any

wa

rranty; and give any other recipients of the Program a

co

py of this License along with the Program.

You may cha

rge a fee for the physical act of transferring

a co

py, and you may at your option offer warranty

protection in exchange for a fee.

2. You may modify you

r copy or copies of the Program or

any

portion of it, thus forming a work based on the

P

rogram, and copy and distribute such modifications or

wo

rk under the terms of Section 1 above, provided that

you also meet all of these conditions:
a) You must cause the modified files to ca

rry prominent

notices stating that you changed the files and the date
of any change.

b) You must cause any wo

rk that you distribute or

publish, that in whole or in part contains or is derived
f

rom the Program or any part thereof, to be licensed as

a whole at no cha

rge to all third parties under the

te

rms of this License.

c) If the modified

program normally reads commands

inte

ractively when run, you must cause it, when

sta

rted running for such interactive use in the most

o

rdinary way, to print or display an announcement

including an a

ppropriate copyright notice and a notice

that the

re is no warranty (or else, saying that you

provide a warranty) and that users may redistribute the
program under these conditions, and telling the user
how to view a co

py of this License. (Exception: if the

P

rogram itself is interactive but does not normally

print such an announcement, your work based on the
P

rogram is not required to print an announcement.)

These

requirements apply to the modified work as a

whole. If identifiable sections of that wo

rk are not derived

f

rom the Program, and can be reasonably considered

inde

pendent and separate works in themselves, then this

License, and its te

rms, do not apply to those sections

when you dist

ribute them as separate works. But when

you dist

ribute the same sections as part of a whole which

is a wo

rk based on the Program, the distribution of the

whole must be on the te

rms of this License, whose

permissions for other licensees extend to the entire
whole, and thus to each and eve

ry part regardless of who

w

rote it.

Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim

rights or

contest you

r rights to work written entirely by you; rather,

the intent is to exe

rcise the right to control the

dist

ribution of derivative or collective works based on the

P

rogram.

In addition, me

re aggregation of another work not based

on the P

rogram with the Program (or with a work based

on the P

rogram) on a volume of a storage or distribution

medium does not b

ring the other work under the scope

of this License.

3. You may co

py and distribute the Program (or a work

based on it, unde

r Section 2) in object code or executable

fo

rm under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above provided

that you also do one of the following:
a) Accom

pany it with the complete corresponding

machine-

readable source code, which must be

dist

ributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above

on a medium customa

rily used for software

inte

rchange; or,

b) Accom

pany it with a written offer, valid for at least

th

ree years, to give any third party, for a charge no

mo

re than your cost of physically performing source

dist

ribution, a complete machine-readable copy of the

co

rresponding source code, to be distributed under

the te

rms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium

customa

rily used for software interchange; or,

c) Accom

pany it with the information you received as to

the offe

r to distribute corresponding source code.

(This alte

rnative is allowed only for noncommercial

dist

ribution and only if you received the program in

object code o

r executable form with such an offer, in

acco

rd with Subsection b above.)

The sou

rce code for a work means the preferred form of

the wo

rk for making modifications to it. For an executable

wo

rk, complete source code means all the source code

fo

r all modules it contains, plus any associated interface

definition files,

plus the scripts used to control

com

pilation and installation of the executable. However,

as a s

pecial exception, the source code distributed need

not include anything that is no

rmally distributed (in

eithe

r source or binary form) with the major components

(com

piler, kernel, and so on) of the operating system on

which the executable

runs, unless that component itself

accompanies the executable.
If dist

ribution of executable or object code is made by

offe

ring access to copy from a designated place, then

offe

ring equivalent access to copy the source code from

the same

place counts as distribution of the source code,

even though thi

rd parties are not compelled to copy the

sou

rce along with the object code.

4. You may not co

py, modify, sublicense, or distribute the

P

rogram except as expressly provided under this

License. Any attem

pt otherwise to copy, modify,

sublicense o

r distribute the Program is void, and will

automatically te

rminate your rights under this License.

Howeve

r, parties who have received copies, or rights,

f

rom you under this License will not have their licenses

te

rminated so long as such parties remain in full

com

pliance.

5. You a

re not required to accept this License, since you

have not signed it. Howeve

r, nothing else grants you

permission to modify or distribute the Program or its
de

rivative works. These actions are prohibited by law if

you do not acce

pt this License. Therefore, by modifying

o

r distributing the Program (or any work based on the

P

rogram), you indicate your acceptance of this License

to do so, and all its te

rms and conditions for copying,

dist

ributing or modifying the Program or works based on

it.

6. Each time you

redistribute the Program (or any work

based on the P

rogram), the recipient automatically

receives a license from the original licensor to copy,
dist

ribute or modify the Program subject to these terms

and conditions. You may not im

pose any further

restrictions on the recipients’ exercise of the rights
g

ranted herein.

You a

re not responsible for enforcing compliance by

thi

rd parties to this License.

7. If, as a consequence of a cou

rt judgment or allegation of

patent infringement or for any other reason (not limited
to

patent issues), conditions are imposed on you

(whethe

r by court order, agreement or otherwise) that

cont

radict the conditions of this License, they do not

excuse you f

rom the conditions of this License. If you

cannot dist

ribute so as to satisfy simultaneously your

obligations unde

r this License and any other pertinent

obligations, then as a consequence you may not
dist

ribute the Program at all. For example, if a patent

license would not

permit royalty-free redistribution of the

P

rogram by all those who receive copies directly or

indi

rectly through you, then the only way you could

satisfy both it and this License would be to

refrain entirely

f

rom distribution of the Program.

If any

portion of this section is held invalid or

unenfo

rceable under any particular circumstance, the

balance of the section is intended to a

pply and the

section as a whole is intended to a

pply in other

ci

rcumstances.

It is not the

purpose of this section to induce you to

inf

ringe 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

softwa

re distribution system, which is implemented by

public license practices. Many people have made
gene

rous contributions to the wide range of software

dist

ributed through that system in reliance on consistent

a

pplication of that system; it is up to the author/donor to

decide if he o

r she is willing to distribute software

th

rough any other system and a licensee cannot impose

that choice.
This section is intended to make tho

roughly clear what is

believed to be a consequence of the

rest of this License.

8. If the dist

ribution and/or use of the Program is restricted

in ce

rtain countries either by patents or by copyrighted

inte

rfaces, the original copyright holder who places the

P

rogram under this License may add an explicit

geog

raphical distribution limitation excluding those

count

ries, so that distribution is permitted only in or

among count

ries not thus excluded. In such case, this

License inco

rporates the limitation as if written in the

body of this License.

9. The F

ree Software Foundation may publish revised and/

o

r new versions of the General Public License from time

to time. Such new ve

rsions will be similar in spirit to the

present version, but may differ in detail to address new
problems or concerns.
Each ve

rsion is given a distinguishing version number. If

the P

rogram specifies a version number of this License

which a

pplies to it and “any later version”, you have the

o

ption of following the terms and conditions either of

that ve

rsion or of any later version published by the Free

Softwa

re Foundation. If the Program does not specify a

ve

rsion number of this License, you may choose any

ve

rsion ever published by the Free Software Foundation.

10.If you wish to inco

rporate parts of the Program into other

f

ree programs whose distribution conditions are

diffe

rent, write to the author to ask for permission. For

softwa

re which is copyrighted by the Free Software

Foundation, w

rite to the Free Software Foundation; we

sometimes make exce

ptions for this. Our decision will be

guided by the two goals of

preserving the free status of all

de

rivatives of our free software and of promoting the

sha

ring and reuse of software generally.

NO WARRANTY
11.BECAUSE THE PROGRAM IS LICENSED FREE OF

CHARGE, 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.

12.IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE

LAW OR AGREED TO IN WRITING WILL ANY COPYRIGHT
HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MAY MODIFY
AND/OR REDISTRIBUTE 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.

END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS
How to Apply These Terms to Your New Programs
If you develo

p a new program, and you want it to be of the

g

reatest possible use to the public, the best way to achieve

this is to make it f

ree 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 sta

rt of each source file to most

effectively convey the exclusion of wa

rranty; and each file
