- GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE
-
- Version 3, 29 June 2007
-
- Copyright © 2007 Free Software Foundation, Inc. <https://fsf.org/>
-
- Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies of this license
- document, but changing it is not allowed.
-
- Preamble
-
- The GNU General Public License is a free, copyleft license for software and
- other kinds of works.
-
- The licenses for most software and other practical works are designed to take
- away your freedom to share and change the works. By contrast, the GNU General
- Public License is intended to guarantee your freedom to share and change all
- versions of a program--to make sure it remains free software for all its users.
- We, the Free Software Foundation, use the GNU General Public License for most
- of our software; it applies also to any other work released this way by its
- authors. You can apply it to your programs, too.
-
- When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, 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 them if you wish), that
- you receive source code or can get it if you want it, that you can change
- the software 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 prevent others from denying you these rights
- or asking you to surrender the rights. Therefore, you have certain responsibilities
- if you distribute copies of the software, or if you modify it: responsibilities
- to respect the freedom of others.
-
- For example, if you distribute copies of such a program, whether gratis or
- for a fee, you must pass on to the recipients the same freedoms that you received.
- You must make sure that they, too, receive or can get the source code. And
- you must show them these terms so they know their rights.
-
- Developers that use the GNU GPL protect your rights with two steps: (1) assert
- copyright on the software, and (2) offer you this License giving you legal
- permission to copy, distribute and/or modify it.
-
- For the developers' and authors' protection, the GPL clearly explains that
- there is no warranty for this free software. For both users' and authors'
- sake, the GPL requires that modified versions be marked as changed, so that
- their problems will not be attributed erroneously to authors of previous versions.
-
- Some devices are designed to deny users access to install or run modified
- versions of the software inside them, although the manufacturer can do so.
- This is fundamentally incompatible with the aim of protecting users' freedom
- to change the software. The systematic pattern of such abuse occurs in the
- area of products for individuals to use, which is precisely where it is most
- unacceptable. Therefore, we have designed this version of the GPL to prohibit
- the practice for those products. If such problems arise substantially in other
- domains, we stand ready to extend this provision to those domains in future
- versions of the GPL, as needed to protect the freedom of users.
-
- Finally, every program is threatened constantly by software patents. States
- should not allow patents to restrict development and use of software on general-purpose
- computers, but in those that do, we wish to avoid the special danger that
- patents applied to a free program could make it effectively proprietary. To
- prevent this, the GPL assures that patents cannot be used to render the program
- non-free.
-
- The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and modification
- follow.
-
- TERMS AND CONDITIONS
-
- 0. Definitions.
-
- "This License" refers to version 3 of the GNU General Public License.
-
- "Copyright" also means copyright-like laws that apply to other kinds of works,
- such as semiconductor masks.
-
- "The Program" refers to any copyrightable work licensed under this License.
- Each licensee is addressed as "you". "Licensees" and "recipients" may be individuals
- or organizations.
-
- To "modify" a work means to copy from or adapt all or part of the work in
- a fashion requiring copyright permission, other than the making of an exact
- copy. The resulting work is called a "modified version" of the earlier work
- or a work "based on" the earlier work.
-
- A "covered work" means either the unmodified Program or a work based on the
- Program.
-
- To "propagate" a work means to do anything with it that, without permission,
- would make you directly or secondarily liable for infringement under applicable
- copyright law, except executing it on a computer or modifying a private copy.
- Propagation includes copying, distribution (with or without modification),
- making available to the public, and in some countries other activities as
- well.
-
- To "convey" a work means any kind of propagation that enables other parties
- to make or receive copies. Mere interaction with a user through a computer
- network, with no transfer of a copy, is not conveying.
-
- An interactive user interface displays "Appropriate Legal Notices" to the
- extent that it includes a convenient and prominently visible feature that
- (1) displays an appropriate copyright notice, and (2) tells the user that
- there is no warranty for the work (except to the extent that warranties are
- provided), that licensees may convey the work under this License, and how
- to view a copy of this License. If the interface presents a list of user commands
- or options, such as a menu, a prominent item in the list meets this criterion.
-
- 1. Source Code.
-
- The "source code" for a work means the preferred form of the work for making
- modifications to it. "Object code" means any non-source form of a work.
-
- A "Standard Interface" means an interface that either is an official standard
- defined by a recognized standards body, or, in the case of interfaces specified
- for a particular programming language, one that is widely used among developers
- working in that language.
-
- The "System Libraries" of an executable work include anything, other than
- the work as a whole, that (a) is included in the normal form of packaging
- a Major Component, but which is not part of that Major Component, and (b)
- serves only to enable use of the work with that Major Component, or to implement
- a Standard Interface for which an implementation is available to the public
- in source code form. A "Major Component", in this context, means a major essential
- component (kernel, window system, and so on) of the specific operating system
- (if any) on which the executable work runs, or a compiler used to produce
- the work, or an object code interpreter used to run it.
-
- The "Corresponding Source" for a work in object code form means all the source
- code needed to generate, install, and (for an executable work) run the object
- code and to modify the work, including scripts to control those activities.
- However, it does not include the work's System Libraries, or general-purpose
- tools or generally available free programs which are used unmodified in performing
- those activities but which are not part of the work. For example, Corresponding
- Source includes interface definition files associated with source files for
- the work, and the source code for shared libraries and dynamically linked
- subprograms that the work is specifically designed to require, such as by
- intimate data communication or control flow between those subprograms and
- other parts of the work.
-
- The Corresponding Source need not include anything that users can regenerate
- automatically from other parts of the Corresponding Source.
-
- The Corresponding Source for a work in source code form is that same work.
-
- 2. Basic Permissions.
-
- All rights granted under this License are granted for the term of copyright
- on the Program, and are irrevocable provided the stated conditions are met.
- This License explicitly affirms your unlimited permission to run the unmodified
- Program. The output from running a covered work is covered by this License
- only if the output, given its content, constitutes a covered work. This License
- acknowledges your rights of fair use or other equivalent, as provided by copyright
- law.
-
- You may make, run and propagate covered works that you do not convey, without
- conditions so long as your license otherwise remains in force. You may convey
- covered works to others for the sole purpose of having them make modifications
- exclusively for you, or provide you with facilities for running those works,
- provided that you comply with the terms of this License in conveying all material
- for which you do not control copyright. Those thus making or running the covered
- works for you must do so exclusively on your behalf, under your direction
- and control, on terms that prohibit them from making any copies of your copyrighted
- material outside their relationship with you.
-
- Conveying under any other circumstances is permitted solely under the conditions
- stated below. Sublicensing is not allowed; section 10 makes it unnecessary.
-
- 3. Protecting Users' Legal Rights From Anti-Circumvention Law.
-
- No covered work shall be deemed part of an effective technological measure
- under any applicable law fulfilling obligations under article 11 of the WIPO
- copyright treaty adopted on 20 December 1996, or similar laws prohibiting
- or restricting circumvention of such measures.
-
- When you convey a covered work, you waive any legal power to forbid circumvention
- of technological measures to the extent such circumvention is effected by
- exercising rights under this License with respect to the covered work, and
- you disclaim any intention to limit operation or modification of the work
- as a means of enforcing, against the work's users, your or third parties'
- legal rights to forbid circumvention of technological measures.
-
- 4. Conveying Verbatim Copies.
-
- You may convey verbatim copies of the Program's source code as you receive
- it, in any medium, provided that you conspicuously and appropriately publish
- on each copy an appropriate copyright notice; keep intact all notices stating
- that this License and any non-permissive terms added in accord with section
- 7 apply to the code; keep intact all notices of the absence of any warranty;
- and give all recipients a copy of this License along with the Program.
-
- You may charge any price or no price for each copy that you convey, and you
- may offer support or warranty protection for a fee.
-
- 5. Conveying Modified Source Versions.
-
- You may convey a work based on the Program, or the modifications to produce
- it from the Program, in the form of source code under the terms of section
- 4, provided that you also meet all of these conditions:
-
- a) The work must carry prominent notices stating that you modified it, and
- giving a relevant date.
-
- b) The work must carry prominent notices stating that it is released under
- this License and any conditions added under section 7. This requirement modifies
- the requirement in section 4 to "keep intact all notices".
-
- c) You must license the entire work, as a whole, under this License to anyone
- who comes into possession of a copy. This License will therefore apply, along
- with any applicable section 7 additional terms, to the whole of the work,
- and all its parts, regardless of how they are packaged. This License gives
- no permission to license the work in any other way, but it does not invalidate
- such permission if you have separately received it.
-
- d) If the work has interactive user interfaces, each must display Appropriate
- Legal Notices; however, if the Program has interactive interfaces that do
- not display Appropriate Legal Notices, your work need not make them do so.
-
- A compilation of a covered work with other separate and independent works,
- which are not by their nature extensions of the covered work, and which are
- not combined with it such as to form a larger program, in or on a volume of
- a storage or distribution medium, is called an "aggregate" if the compilation
- and its resulting copyright are not used to limit the access or legal rights
- of the compilation's users beyond what the individual works permit. Inclusion
- of a covered work in an aggregate does not cause this License to apply to
- the other parts of the aggregate.
-
- 6. Conveying Non-Source Forms.
-
- You may convey a covered work in object code form under the terms of sections
- 4 and 5, provided that you also convey the machine-readable Corresponding
- Source under the terms of this License, in one of these ways:
-
- a) Convey the object code in, or embodied in, a physical product (including
- a physical distribution medium), accompanied by the Corresponding Source fixed
- on a durable physical medium customarily used for software interchange.
-
- b) Convey the object code in, or embodied in, a physical product (including
- a physical distribution medium), accompanied by a written offer, valid for
- at least three years and valid for as long as you offer spare parts or customer
- support for that product model, to give anyone who possesses the object code
- either (1) a copy of the Corresponding Source for all the software in the
- product that is covered by this License, on a durable physical medium customarily
- used for software interchange, for a price no more than your reasonable cost
- of physically performing this conveying of source, or (2) access to copy the
- Corresponding Source from a network server at no charge.
-
- c) Convey individual copies of the object code with a copy of the written
- offer to provide the Corresponding Source. This alternative is allowed only
- occasionally and noncommercially, and only if you received the object code
- with such an offer, in accord with subsection 6b.
-
- d) Convey the object code by offering access from a designated place (gratis
- or for a charge), and offer equivalent access to the Corresponding Source
- in the same way through the same place at no further charge. You need not
- require recipients to copy the Corresponding Source along with the object
- code. If the place to copy the object code is a network server, the Corresponding
- Source may be on a different server (operated by you or a third party) that
- supports equivalent copying facilities, provided you maintain clear directions
- next to the object code saying where to find the Corresponding Source. Regardless
- of what server hosts the Corresponding Source, you remain obligated to ensure
- that it is available for as long as needed to satisfy these requirements.
-
- e) Convey the object code using peer-to-peer transmission, provided you inform
- other peers where the object code and Corresponding Source of the work are
- being offered to the general public at no charge under subsection 6d.
-
- A separable portion of the object code, whose source code is excluded from
- the Corresponding Source as a System Library, need not be included in conveying
- the object code work.
-
- A "User Product" is either (1) a "consumer product", which means any tangible
- personal property which is normally used for personal, family, or household
- purposes, or (2) anything designed or sold for incorporation into a dwelling.
- In determining whether a product is a consumer product, doubtful cases shall
- be resolved in favor of coverage. For a particular product received by a particular
- user, "normally used" refers to a typical or common use of that class of product,
- regardless of the status of the particular user or of the way in which the
- particular user actually uses, or expects or is expected to use, the product.
- A product is a consumer product regardless of whether the product has substantial
- commercial, industrial or non-consumer uses, unless such uses represent the
- only significant mode of use of the product.
-
- "Installation Information" for a User Product means any methods, procedures,
- authorization keys, or other information required to install and execute modified
- versions of a covered work in that User Product from a modified version of
- its Corresponding Source. The information must suffice to ensure that the
- continued functioning of the modified object code is in no case prevented
- or interfered with solely because modification has been made.
-
- If you convey an object code work under this section in, or with, or specifically
- for use in, a User Product, and the conveying occurs as part of a transaction
- in which the right of possession and use of the User Product is transferred
- to the recipient in perpetuity or for a fixed term (regardless of how the
- transaction is characterized), the Corresponding Source conveyed under this
- section must be accompanied by the Installation Information. But this requirement
- does not apply if neither you nor any third party retains the ability to install
- modified object code on the User Product (for example, the work has been installed
- in ROM).
-
- The requirement to provide Installation Information does not include a requirement
- to continue to provide support service, warranty, or updates for a work that
- has been modified or installed by the recipient, or for the User Product in
- which it has been modified or installed. Access to a network may be denied
- when the modification itself materially and adversely affects the operation
- of the network or violates the rules and protocols for communication across
- the network.
-
- Corresponding Source conveyed, and Installation Information provided, in accord
- with this section must be in a format that is publicly documented (and with
- an implementation available to the public in source code form), and must require
- no special password or key for unpacking, reading or copying.
-
- 7. Additional Terms.
-
- "Additional permissions" are terms that supplement the terms of this License
- by making exceptions from one or more of its conditions. Additional permissions
- that are applicable to the entire Program shall be treated as though they
- were included in this License, to the extent that they are valid under applicable
- law. If additional permissions apply only to part of the Program, that part
- may be used separately under those permissions, but the entire Program remains
- governed by this License without regard to the additional permissions.
-
- When you convey a copy of a covered work, you may at your option remove any
- additional permissions from that copy, or from any part of it. (Additional
- permissions may be written to require their own removal in certain cases when
- you modify the work.) You may place additional permissions on material, added
- by you to a covered work, for which you have or can give appropriate copyright
- permission.
-
- Notwithstanding any other provision of this License, for material you add
- to a covered work, you may (if authorized by the copyright holders of that
- material) supplement the terms of this License with terms:
-
- a) Disclaiming warranty or limiting liability differently from the terms of
- sections 15 and 16 of this License; or
-
- b) Requiring preservation of specified reasonable legal notices or author
- attributions in that material or in the Appropriate Legal Notices displayed
- by works containing it; or
-
- c) Prohibiting misrepresentation of the origin of that material, or requiring
- that modified versions of such material be marked in reasonable ways as different
- from the original version; or
-
- d) Limiting the use for publicity purposes of names of licensors or authors
- of the material; or
-
- e) Declining to grant rights under trademark law for use of some trade names,
- trademarks, or service marks; or
-
- f) Requiring indemnification of licensors and authors of that material by
- anyone who conveys the material (or modified versions of it) with contractual
- assumptions of liability to the recipient, for any liability that these contractual
- assumptions directly impose on those licensors and authors.
-
- All other non-permissive additional terms are considered "further restrictions"
- within the meaning of section 10. If the Program as you received it, or any
- part of it, contains a notice stating that it is governed by this License
- along with a term that is a further restriction, you may remove that term.
- If a license document contains a further restriction but permits relicensing
- or conveying under this License, you may add to a covered work material governed
- by the terms of that license document, provided that the further restriction
- does not survive such relicensing or conveying.
-
- If you add terms to a covered work in accord with this section, you must place,
- in the relevant source files, a statement of the additional terms that apply
- to those files, or a notice indicating where to find the applicable terms.
-
- Additional terms, permissive or non-permissive, may be stated in the form
- of a separately written license, or stated as exceptions; the above requirements
- apply either way.
-
- 8. Termination.
-
- You may not propagate or modify a covered work except as expressly provided
- under this License. Any attempt otherwise to propagate or modify it is void,
- and will automatically terminate your rights under this License (including
- any patent licenses granted under the third paragraph of section 11).
-
- However, if you cease all violation of this License, then your license from
- a particular copyright holder is reinstated (a) provisionally, unless and
- until the copyright holder explicitly and finally terminates your license,
- and (b) permanently, if the copyright holder fails to notify you of the violation
- by some reasonable means prior to 60 days after the cessation.
-
- Moreover, your license from a particular copyright holder is reinstated permanently
- if the copyright holder notifies you of the violation by some reasonable means,
- this is the first time you have received notice of violation of this License
- (for any work) from that copyright holder, and you cure the violation prior
- to 30 days after your receipt of the notice.
-
- Termination of your rights under this section does not terminate the licenses
- of parties who have received copies or rights from you under this License.
- If your rights have been terminated and not permanently reinstated, you do
- not qualify to receive new licenses for the same material under section 10.
-
- 9. Acceptance Not Required for Having Copies.
-
- You are not required to accept this License in order to receive or run a copy
- of the Program. Ancillary propagation of a covered work occurring solely as
- a consequence of using peer-to-peer transmission to receive a copy likewise
- does not require acceptance. However, nothing other than this License grants
- you permission to propagate or modify any covered work. These actions infringe
- copyright if you do not accept this License. Therefore, by modifying or propagating
- a covered work, you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so.
-
- 10. Automatic Licensing of Downstream Recipients.
-
- Each time you convey a covered work, the recipient automatically receives
- a license from the original licensors, to run, modify and propagate that work,
- subject to this License. You are not responsible for enforcing compliance
- by third parties with this License.
-
- An "entity transaction" is a transaction transferring control of an organization,
- or substantially all assets of one, or subdividing an organization, or merging
- organizations. If propagation of a covered work results from an entity transaction,
- each party to that transaction who receives a copy of the work also receives
- whatever licenses to the work the party's predecessor in interest had or could
- give under the previous paragraph, plus a right to possession of the Corresponding
- Source of the work from the predecessor in interest, if the predecessor has
- it or can get it with reasonable efforts.
-
- You may not impose any further restrictions on the exercise of the rights
- granted or affirmed under this License. For example, you may not impose a
- license fee, royalty, or other charge for exercise of rights granted under
- this License, and you may not initiate litigation (including a cross-claim
- or counterclaim in a lawsuit) alleging that any patent claim is infringed
- by making, using, selling, offering for sale, or importing the Program or
- any portion of it.
-
- 11. Patents.
-
- A "contributor" is a copyright holder who authorizes use under this License
- of the Program or a work on which the Program is based. The work thus licensed
- is called the contributor's "contributor version".
-
- A contributor's "essential patent claims" are all patent claims owned or controlled
- by the contributor, whether already acquired or hereafter acquired, that would
- be infringed by some manner, permitted by this License, of making, using,
- or selling its contributor version, but do not include claims that would be
- infringed only as a consequence of further modification of the contributor
- version. For purposes of this definition, "control" includes the right to
- grant patent sublicenses in a manner consistent with the requirements of this
- License.
-
- Each contributor grants you a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free patent
- license under the contributor's essential patent claims, to make, use, sell,
- offer for sale, import and otherwise run, modify and propagate the contents
- of its contributor version.
-
- In the following three paragraphs, a "patent license" is any express agreement
- or commitment, however denominated, not to enforce a patent (such as an express
- permission to practice a patent or covenant not to sue for patent infringement).
- To "grant" such a patent license to a party means to make such an agreement
- or commitment not to enforce a patent against the party.
-
- If you convey a covered work, knowingly relying on a patent license, and the
- Corresponding Source of the work is not available for anyone to copy, free
- of charge and under the terms of this License, through a publicly available
- network server or other readily accessible means, then you must either (1)
- cause the Corresponding Source to be so available, or (2) arrange to deprive
- yourself of the benefit of the patent license for this particular work, or
- (3) arrange, in a manner consistent with the requirements of this License,
- to extend the patent license to downstream recipients. "Knowingly relying"
- means you have actual knowledge that, but for the patent license, your conveying
- the covered work in a country, or your recipient's use of the covered work
- in a country, would infringe one or more identifiable patents in that country
- that you have reason to believe are valid.
-
- If, pursuant to or in connection with a single transaction or arrangement,
- you convey, or propagate by procuring conveyance of, a covered work, and grant
- a patent license to some of the parties receiving the covered work authorizing
- them to use, propagate, modify or convey a specific copy of the covered work,
- then the patent license you grant is automatically extended to all recipients
- of the covered work and works based on it.
-
- A patent license is "discriminatory" if it does not include within the scope
- of its coverage, prohibits the exercise of, or is conditioned on the non-exercise
- of one or more of the rights that are specifically granted under this License.
- You may not convey a covered work if you are a party to an arrangement with
- a third party that is in the business of distributing software, under which
- you make payment to the third party based on the extent of your activity of
- conveying the work, and under which the third party grants, to any of the
- parties who would receive the covered work from you, a discriminatory patent
- license (a) in connection with copies of the covered work conveyed by you
- (or copies made from those copies), or (b) primarily for and in connection
- with specific products or compilations that contain the covered work, unless
- you entered into that arrangement, or that patent license was granted, prior
- to 28 March 2007.
-
- Nothing in this License shall be construed as excluding or limiting any implied
- license or other defenses to infringement that may otherwise be available
- to you under applicable patent law.
-
- 12. No Surrender of Others' Freedom.
-
- If 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 convey a covered work so as
- to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this License and any other
- pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you may not convey it at all.
- For example, if you agree to terms that obligate you to collect a royalty
- for further conveying from those to whom you convey the Program, the only
- way you could satisfy both those terms and this License would be to refrain
- entirely from conveying the Program.
-
- 13. Use with the GNU Affero General Public License.
-
- Notwithstanding any other provision of this License, you have permission to
- link or combine any covered work with a work licensed under version 3 of the
- GNU Affero General Public License into a single combined work, and to convey
- the resulting work. The terms of this License will continue to apply to the
- part which is the covered work, but the special requirements of the GNU Affero
- General Public License, section 13, concerning interaction through a network
- will apply to the combination as such.
-
- 14. Revised Versions of this License.
-
- The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions of the
- GNU 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 specifies
- that a certain numbered version of the GNU General Public License "or any
- later version" applies to it, you have the option of following the terms and
- conditions either of that numbered version or of any later version published
- by the Free Software Foundation. If the Program does not specify a version
- number of the GNU General Public License, you may choose any version ever
- published by the Free Software Foundation.
-
- If the Program specifies that a proxy can decide which future versions of
- the GNU General Public License can be used, that proxy's public statement
- of acceptance of a version permanently authorizes you to choose that version
- for the Program.
-
- Later license versions may give you additional or different permissions. However,
- no additional obligations are imposed on any author or copyright holder as
- a result of your choosing to follow a later version.
-
- 15. Disclaimer of Warranty.
-
- 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.
-
- 16. Limitation of Liability.
-
- IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN WRITING WILL
- ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MODIFIES AND/OR CONVEYS 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.
-
- 17. Interpretation of Sections 15 and 16.
-
- If the disclaimer of warranty and limitation of liability provided above cannot
- be given local legal effect according to their terms, reviewing courts shall
- apply local law that most closely approximates an absolute waiver of all civil
- liability in connection with the Program, unless a warranty or assumption
- of liability accompanies a copy of the Program in return for a fee. 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 state 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 3 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.

- If the program does terminal interaction, make it output a short notice like
- this when it starts in an interactive mode:
-
- <program> Copyright (C) <year> <name of author>
-
- This program 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, your program's commands might
- be different; for a GUI interface, you would use an "about box".
-
- You should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer) or school,
- if any, to sign a "copyright disclaimer" for the program, if necessary. For
- more information on this, and how to apply and follow the GNU GPL, see <https://www.gnu.org/licenses/>.

- The GNU 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. But first, please read <https://www.gnu.org/
- licenses /why-not-lgpl.html>.
