distribution medium does not bring the other
work under the scope of this License.

3. You may copy and distribute the Program

(or a work based on it, under Section 2) in
object code or executable form under the
terms of Sections 1 and 2 above provided
that you also do one of the following:
a) 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; or,

b) Accompany it with a written offer, valid

for at least three years, to give any third
party, for a charge no more than your
cost of physically performing source
distribution, a complete machine-
readable copy of the corresponding
source code, to be distributed under the
terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a
medium customarily used for software
interchange; or,

c) Accompany it with the information

you received as to the offer to
distribute corresponding source code.
(This alternative is allowed only for
noncommercial distribution and only if
you received the program in object code
or executable form with such an offer, in
accord with Subsection b above.)

The source code for a work means the
preferred form of the work for making
modifi cations to it. For an executable work,
complete source code means all the source
code for all modules it contains, plus any
associated interface defi nition fi les, plus
the scripts used to control compilation and
installation of the executable. However,
as a special exception, the source code
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.

If distribution of executable or 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 counts as distribution of the
source code, even though third parties are
not compelled to copy the source along with
the object code.

4. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or

distribute the Program except as expressly
provided under this License. Any attempt
otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense or
distribute the Program 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.

5. 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 Program or its derivative
works. These actions are prohibited by law
if you do not accept this License. Therefore,
by modifying or distributing the Program
(or any work based on the Program), you
indicate your acceptance of this License
to do so, and all its terms and conditions
for copying, distributing or modifying the
Program or works based on it.

6. Each time you redistribute the Program

(or any work based on the Program), the

recipient automatically receives a license
from the original licensor to copy, distribute
or modify the Program 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 to this License.

7. 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 Program at all. For
example, if a patent license would not permit
royalty-free redistribution of the Program
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
Program.

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.

8. If the distribution and/or use of the Program

is restricted in certain countries either
by patents or by copyrighted interfaces,
the original copyright holder who places
the Program 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.

9. The Free Software Foundation may publish

revised and/ or new versions of the 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 specifi es 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 Program does not specify a version
number of this License, you may choose any
version ever published by the Free Software
Foundation.

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 fi le to most effectively convey
the exclusion of warranty; and each fi le 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 © <year> <name of author>
This program is free software; you can

redistribute it and/ or modify it under the

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

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., 51 Franklin Street, Fifth Floor,
Boston, MA 02110-1301 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 © 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.

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 Lesser
General Public License instead of this License.

GNU LESSER GENERAL PUBLIC
LICENSE

Version 2.1, February 1999
Copyright © 1991, 1999 Free Software
Foundation, Inc.
51 Franklin Street, Fifth Floor, Boston, MA
02110-1301 USA
Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute
verbatim copies of this license document, but
changing it is not allowed.
[This is the fi rst released version of the Lesser
GPL. It also counts as the successor of the GNU
Library Public License, version 2, hence the
version number 2.1.]
Preamble
The licenses for most software are designed to
take away your freedom to share and change it.
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 packages
- typically libraries - of the Free Software
Foundation and other authors who decide to
use it. You can use it too, but we suggest you
fi rst 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
fi les 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 modifi ed 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 specifi ed
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 nonfree 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 fi ts 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 “Lesser” General Public
License because it does 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 nonfree 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
modifi ed version of the Library.
The precise terms and conditions for copying,
distribution and modifi cation 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.
TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING,
DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION
0. 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 modifi cations and/
or translated straightforwardly into another
language. (Hereinafter, translation is included
without limitation in the term “modifi cation”.)

“Source code” for a work means the
preferred form of the work for making
modifi cations to it. For a library, complete
source code means all the source code for
all modules it contains, plus any associated
interface defi nition fi les, plus the scripts used
to control compilation and installation of the
library.

Activities other than copying, distribution
and modifi cation 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.

1. 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.

2. 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 modifi cations or work under
the terms of Section 1 above, provided that
you also meet all of these conditions:
a) The modifi ed work must itself be a

software library.
