Chapter 12: Appendix

10.

If you wish to incorporate parts of the Program into

other free programs whose distribution conditions are

different, 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. Our decision will

be guided by the two goals of preserving the free status

of all derivatives of our free software and of promoting

the sharing and reuse of software generally.

NO WARRANTY
11.

BECAUSE THE PROGRAM IS LICENSED FREE

OF CHARGE, THERE IS NO 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 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 convey the exclusion of warranty; and

each file should have at least the “copyright” line and a

pointer to where the full notice is found.
One line to give the program’s name and a brief idea of

what it does.
Copyright (C) <year> <name of author>
This program is free software; you can redistribute it

and/or modify it under the terms of the GNU General

Public License as published by the Free Software

Foundation; either version 2 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 General Public License for more details.
You should have received a copy of the GNU General

Public License along with this program; if not, write to

the Free Software Foundation, Inc., 59 Temple Place,

Suite 330, Boston, MA 02111-1307 USA
Also add information on how to contact you by

electronic and paper mail.
If the program is interactive, make it output a short

notice like this when it starts in an interactive mode:
Gnomovision version 69, Copyright (C) year name of

author Gnomovision comes with ABSOLUTELY NO

WARRANTY; for details type ‘show w’. This is free

software, and you are welcome to redistribute it under

certain conditions; type ‘show c’ for details.
The hypothetical commands ‘show w’ and ‘show c’

should show the appropriate parts of the General Public

License. Of course, the commands you use may be

called something other than ‘show w’ and ‘show c’; they

could even be mouse-clicks or menu items--whatever

suits your program.
You should also get your employer (if you work as a

programmer) or your school, if any, to sign a “copyright

disclaimer” for the program, if necessary. Here is a

sample; alter the names:
Yoyodyne, Inc., hereby disclaims all copyright interest in

the program ‘Gnomovision’ (which makes passes at

compilers) written by James Hacker.
signature of Ty Coon, 1 April 1989

Ty Coon, President of Vice
This General Public License does not permit

incorporating your program into proprietary programs. If

your program is a subroutine library, you may consider it

more useful to permit linking proprietary applications

with the library. If this is what you want to do, use the

GNU Library General Public License instead of this

License.
