16 GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE
17 Version 3, 29 June 2007
18
19 Copyright (C) 2007 Free Software Foundation, Inc. <https://fsf.org/>
20 Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies
21 of this license document, but changing it is not allowed.
22
23 Preamble
24
25 The GNU General Public License is a free, copyleft license for
26software and other kinds of works.
27
28 The licenses for most software and other practical works are designed
29to take away your freedom to share and change the works. By contrast,
30the GNU General Public License is intended to guarantee your freedom to
31share and change all versions of a program--to make sure it remains free
32software for all its users. We, the Free Software Foundation, use the
33GNU General Public License for most of our software; it applies also to
34any other work released this way by its authors. You can apply it to
35your programs, too.
36
37 When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not
38price. Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that you
39have the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge for
40them if you wish), that you receive source code or can get it if you
41want it, that you can change the software or use pieces of it in new
42free programs, and that you know you can do these things.
43
44 To protect your rights, we need to prevent others from denying you
45these rights or asking you to surrender the rights. Therefore, you have
46certain responsibilities if you distribute copies of the software, or if
47you modify it: responsibilities to respect the freedom of others.
48
49 For example, if you distribute copies of such a program, whether
50gratis or for a fee, you must pass on to the recipients the same
51freedoms that you received. You must make sure that they, too, receive
52or can get the source code. And you must show them these terms so they
53know their rights.
54
55 Developers that use the GNU GPL protect your rights with two steps:
56(1) assert copyright on the software, and (2) offer you this License
57giving you legal permission to copy, distribute and/or modify it.
58
59 For the developers' and authors' protection, the GPL clearly explains
60that there is no warranty for this free software. For both users' and
61authors' sake, the GPL requires that modified versions be marked as
62changed, so that their problems will not be attributed erroneously to
63authors of previous versions.
64
65 Some devices are designed to deny users access to install or run
66modified versions of the software inside them, although the manufacturer
67can do so. This is fundamentally incompatible with the aim of
68protecting users' freedom to change the software. The systematic
69pattern of such abuse occurs in the area of products for individuals to
70use, which is precisely where it is most unacceptable. Therefore, we
71have designed this version of the GPL to prohibit the practice for those
72products. If such problems arise substantially in other domains, we
73stand ready to extend this provision to those domains in future versions
74of the GPL, as needed to protect the freedom of users.
75
76 Finally, every program is threatened constantly by software patents.
77States should not allow patents to restrict development and use of
78software on general-purpose computers, but in those that do, we wish to
79avoid the special danger that patents applied to a free program could
80make it effectively proprietary. To prevent this, the GPL assures that
81patents cannot be used to render the program non-free.
82
83 The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and
84modification follow.
85
86 TERMS AND CONDITIONS
87
88 0. Definitions.
89
90 "This License" refers to version 3 of the GNU General Public License.
91
92 "Copyright" also means copyright-like laws that apply to other kinds of
93works, such as semiconductor masks.
94
95 "The Program" refers to any copyrightable work licensed under this
96License. Each licensee is addressed as "you". "Licensees" and
97"recipients" may be individuals or organizations.
98
99 To "modify" a work means to copy from or adapt all or part of the work
100in a fashion requiring copyright permission, other than the making of an
101exact copy. The resulting work is called a "modified version" of the
102earlier work or a work "based on" the earlier work.
103
104 A "covered work" means either the unmodified Program or a work based
105on the Program.
106
107 To "propagate" a work means to do anything with it that, without
108permission, would make you directly or secondarily liable for
109infringement under applicable copyright law, except executing it on a
110computer or modifying a private copy. Propagation includes copying,
111distribution (with or without modification), making available to the
112public, and in some countries other activities as well.
113
114 To "convey" a work means any kind of propagation that enables other
115parties to make or receive copies. Mere interaction with a user through
116a computer network, with no transfer of a copy, is not conveying.
117
118 An interactive user interface displays "Appropriate Legal Notices"
119to the extent that it includes a convenient and prominently visible
120feature that (1) displays an appropriate copyright notice, and (2)
121tells the user that there is no warranty for the work (except to the
122extent that warranties are provided), that licensees may convey the
123work under this License, and how to view a copy of this License. If
124the interface presents a list of user commands or options, such as a
125menu, a prominent item in the list meets this criterion.
126
127 1. Source Code.
128
129 The "source code" for a work means the preferred form of the work
130for making modifications to it. "Object code" means any non-source
131form of a work.
132
133 A "Standard Interface" means an interface that either is an official
134standard defined by a recognized standards body, or, in the case of
135interfaces specified for a particular programming language, one that
136is widely used among developers working in that language.
137
138 The "System Libraries" of an executable work include anything, other
139than the work as a whole, that (a) is included in the normal form of
140packaging a Major Component, but which is not part of that Major
141Component, and (b) serves only to enable use of the work with that
142Major Component, or to implement a Standard Interface for which an
143implementation is available to the public in source code form. A
144"Major Component", in this context, means a major essential component
145(kernel, window system, and so on) of the specific operating system
146(if any) on which the executable work runs, or a compiler used to
147produce the work, or an object code interpreter used to run it.
148
149 The "Corresponding Source" for a work in object code form means all
150the source code needed to generate, install, and (for an executable
151work) run the object code and to modify the work, including scripts to
152control those activities. However, it does not include the work's
153System Libraries, or general-purpose tools or generally available free
154programs which are used unmodified in performing those activities but
155which are not part of the work. For example, Corresponding Source
156includes interface definition files associated with source files for
157the work, and the source code for shared libraries and dynamically
158linked subprograms that the work is specifically designed to require,
159such as by intimate data communication or control flow between those
160subprograms and other parts of the work.
161
162 The Corresponding Source need not include anything that users
163can regenerate automatically from other parts of the Corresponding
164Source.
165
166 The Corresponding Source for a work in source code form is that
167same work.
168
169 2. Basic Permissions.
170
171 All rights granted under this License are granted for the term of
172copyright on the Program, and are irrevocable provided the stated
173conditions are met. This License explicitly affirms your unlimited
174permission to run the unmodified Program. The output from running a
175covered work is covered by this License only if the output, given its
176content, constitutes a covered work. This License acknowledges your
177rights of fair use or other equivalent, as provided by copyright law.
178
179 You may make, run and propagate covered works that you do not
180convey, without conditions so long as your license otherwise remains
181in force. You may convey covered works to others for the sole purpose
182of having them make modifications exclusively for you, or provide you
183with facilities for running those works, provided that you comply with
184the terms of this License in conveying all material for which you do
185not control copyright. Those thus making or running the covered works
186for you must do so exclusively on your behalf, under your direction
187and control, on terms that prohibit them from making any copies of
188your copyrighted material outside their relationship with you.
189
190 Conveying under any other circumstances is permitted solely under
191the conditions stated below. Sublicensing is not allowed; section 10
192makes it unnecessary.
193
194 3. Protecting Users' Legal Rights From Anti-Circumvention Law.
195
196 No covered work shall be deemed part of an effective technological
197measure under any applicable law fulfilling obligations under article
19811 of the WIPO copyright treaty adopted on 20 December 1996, or
199similar laws prohibiting or restricting circumvention of such
200measures.
201
202 When you convey a covered work, you waive any legal power to forbid
203circumvention of technological measures to the extent such circumvention
204is effected by exercising rights under this License with respect to
205the covered work, and you disclaim any intention to limit operation or
206modification of the work as a means of enforcing, against the work's
207users, your or third parties' legal rights to forbid circumvention of
208technological measures.
209
210 4. Conveying Verbatim Copies.
211
212 You may convey verbatim copies of the Program's source code as you
213receive it, in any medium, provided that you conspicuously and
214appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate copyright notice;
215keep intact all notices stating that this License and any
216non-permissive terms added in accord with section 7 apply to the code;
217keep intact all notices of the absence of any warranty; and give all
218recipients a copy of this License along with the Program.
219
220 You may charge any price or no price for each copy that you convey,
221and you may offer support or warranty protection for a fee.
222
223 5. Conveying Modified Source Versions.
224
225 You may convey a work based on the Program, or the modifications to
226produce it from the Program, in the form of source code under the
227terms of section 4, provided that you also meet all of these conditions:
228
229 a) The work must carry prominent notices stating that you modified
230 it, and giving a relevant date.
231
232 b) The work must carry prominent notices stating that it is
233 released under this License and any conditions added under section
234 7. This requirement modifies the requirement in section 4 to
235 "keep intact all notices".
236
237 c) You must license the entire work, as a whole, under this
238 License to anyone who comes into possession of a copy. This
239 License will therefore apply, along with any applicable section 7
240 additional terms, to the whole of the work, and all its parts,
241 regardless of how they are packaged. This License gives no
242 permission to license the work in any other way, but it does not
243 invalidate such permission if you have separately received it.
244
245 d) If the work has interactive user interfaces, each must display
246 Appropriate Legal Notices; however, if the Program has interactive
247 interfaces that do not display Appropriate Legal Notices, your
248 work need not make them do so.
249
250 A compilation of a covered work with other separate and independent
251works, which are not by their nature extensions of the covered work,
252and which are not combined with it such as to form a larger program,
253in or on a volume of a storage or distribution medium, is called an
254"aggregate" if the compilation and its resulting copyright are not
255used to limit the access or legal rights of the compilation's users
256beyond what the individual works permit. Inclusion of a covered work
257in an aggregate does not cause this License to apply to the other
258parts of the aggregate.
259
260 6. Conveying Non-Source Forms.
261
262 You may convey a covered work in object code form under the terms
263of sections 4 and 5, provided that you also convey the
264machine-readable Corresponding Source under the terms of this License,
265in one of these ways:
266
267 a) Convey the object code in, or embodied in, a physical product
268 (including a physical distribution medium), accompanied by the
269 Corresponding Source fixed on a durable physical medium
270 customarily used for software interchange.
271
272 b) Convey the object code in, or embodied in, a physical product
273 (including a physical distribution medium), accompanied by a
274 written offer, valid for at least three years and valid for as
275 long as you offer spare parts or customer support for that product
276 model, to give anyone who possesses the object code either (1) a
277 copy of the Corresponding Source for all the software in the
278 product that is covered by this License, on a durable physical
279 medium customarily used for software interchange, for a price no
280 more than your reasonable cost of physically performing this
281 conveying of source, or (2) access to copy the
282 Corresponding Source from a network server at no charge.
283
284 c) Convey individual copies of the object code with a copy of the
285 written offer to provide the Corresponding Source. This
286 alternative is allowed only occasionally and noncommercially, and
287 only if you received the object code with such an offer, in accord
288 with subsection 6b.
289
290 d) Convey the object code by offering access from a designated
291 place (gratis or for a charge), and offer equivalent access to the
292 Corresponding Source in the same way through the same place at no
293 further charge. You need not require recipients to copy the
294 Corresponding Source along with the object code. If the place to
295 copy the object code is a network server, the Corresponding Source
296 may be on a different server (operated by you or a third party)
297 that supports equivalent copying facilities, provided you maintain
298 clear directions next to the object code saying where to find the
299 Corresponding Source. Regardless of what server hosts the
300 Corresponding Source, you remain obligated to ensure that it is
301 available for as long as needed to satisfy these requirements.
302
303 e) Convey the object code using peer-to-peer transmission, provided
304 you inform other peers where the object code and Corresponding
305 Source of the work are being offered to the general public at no
306 charge under subsection 6d.
307
308 A separable portion of the object code, whose source code is excluded
309from the Corresponding Source as a System Library, need not be
310included in conveying the object code work.
311
312 A "User Product" is either (1) a "consumer product", which means any
313tangible personal property which is normally used for personal, family,
314or household purposes, or (2) anything designed or sold for incorporation
315into a dwelling. In determining whether a product is a consumer product,
316doubtful cases shall be resolved in favor of coverage. For a particular
317product received by a particular user, "normally used" refers to a
318typical or common use of that class of product, regardless of the status
319of the particular user or of the way in which the particular user
320actually uses, or expects or is expected to use, the product. A product
321is a consumer product regardless of whether the product has substantial
322commercial, industrial or non-consumer uses, unless such uses represent
323the only significant mode of use of the product.
324
325 "Installation Information" for a User Product means any methods,
326procedures, authorization keys, or other information required to install
327and execute modified versions of a covered work in that User Product from
328a modified version of its Corresponding Source. The information must
329suffice to ensure that the continued functioning of the modified object
330code is in no case prevented or interfered with solely because
331modification has been made.
332
333 If you convey an object code work under this section in, or with, or
334specifically for use in, a User Product, and the conveying occurs as
335part of a transaction in which the right of possession and use of the
336User Product is transferred to the recipient in perpetuity or for a
337fixed term (regardless of how the transaction is characterized), the
338Corresponding Source conveyed under this section must be accompanied
339by the Installation Information. But this requirement does not apply
340if neither you nor any third party retains the ability to install
341modified object code on the User Product (for example, the work has
342been installed in ROM).
343
344 The requirement to provide Installation Information does not include a
345requirement to continue to provide support service, warranty, or updates
346for a work that has been modified or installed by the recipient, or for
347the User Product in which it has been modified or installed. Access to a
348network may be denied when the modification itself materially and
349adversely affects the operation of the network or violates the rules and
350protocols for communication across the network.
351
352 Corresponding Source conveyed, and Installation Information provided,
353in accord with this section must be in a format that is publicly
354documented (and with an implementation available to the public in
355source code form), and must require no special password or key for
356unpacking, reading or copying.
357
358 7. Additional Terms.
359
360 "Additional permissions" are terms that supplement the terms of this
361License by making exceptions from one or more of its conditions.
362Additional permissions that are applicable to the entire Program shall
363be treated as though they were included in this License, to the extent
364that they are valid under applicable law. If additional permissions
365apply only to part of the Program, that part may be used separately
366under those permissions, but the entire Program remains governed by
367this License without regard to the additional permissions.
368
369 When you convey a copy of a covered work, you may at your option
370remove any additional permissions from that copy, or from any part of
371it. (Additional permissions may be written to require their own
372removal in certain cases when you modify the work.) You may place
373additional permissions on material, added by you to a covered work,
374for which you have or can give appropriate copyright permission.
375
376 Notwithstanding any other provision of this License, for material you
377add to a covered work, you may (if authorized by the copyright holders of
378that material) supplement the terms of this License with terms:
379
380 a) Disclaiming warranty or limiting liability differently from the
381 terms of sections 15 and 16 of this License; or
382
383 b) Requiring preservation of specified reasonable legal notices or
384 author attributions in that material or in the Appropriate Legal
385 Notices displayed by works containing it; or
386
387 c) Prohibiting misrepresentation of the origin of that material, or
388 requiring that modified versions of such material be marked in
389 reasonable ways as different from the original version; or
390
391 d) Limiting the use for publicity purposes of names of licensors or
392 authors of the material; or
393
394 e) Declining to grant rights under trademark law for use of some
395 trade names, trademarks, or service marks; or
396
397 f) Requiring indemnification of licensors and authors of that
398 material by anyone who conveys the material (or modified versions of
399 it) with contractual assumptions of liability to the recipient, for
400 any liability that these contractual assumptions directly impose on
401 those licensors and authors.
402
403 All other non-permissive additional terms are considered "further
404restrictions" within the meaning of section 10. If the Program as you
405received it, or any part of it, contains a notice stating that it is
406governed by this License along with a term that is a further
407restriction, you may remove that term. If a license document contains
408a further restriction but permits relicensing or conveying under this
409License, you may add to a covered work material governed by the terms
410of that license document, provided that the further restriction does
411not survive such relicensing or conveying.
412
413 If you add terms to a covered work in accord with this section, you
414must place, in the relevant source files, a statement of the
415additional terms that apply to those files, or a notice indicating
416where to find the applicable terms.
417
418 Additional terms, permissive or non-permissive, may be stated in the
419form of a separately written license, or stated as exceptions;
420the above requirements apply either way.
421
422 8. Termination.
423
424 You may not propagate or modify a covered work except as expressly
425provided under this License. Any attempt otherwise to propagate or
426modify it is void, and will automatically terminate your rights under
427this License (including any patent licenses granted under the third
428paragraph of section 11).
429
430 However, if you cease all violation of this License, then your
431license from a particular copyright holder is reinstated (a)
432provisionally, unless and until the copyright holder explicitly and
433finally terminates your license, and (b) permanently, if the copyright
434holder fails to notify you of the violation by some reasonable means
435prior to 60 days after the cessation.
436
437 Moreover, your license from a particular copyright holder is
438reinstated permanently if the copyright holder notifies you of the
439violation by some reasonable means, this is the first time you have
440received notice of violation of this License (for any work) from that
441copyright holder, and you cure the violation prior to 30 days after
442your receipt of the notice.
443
444 Termination of your rights under this section does not terminate the
445licenses of parties who have received copies or rights from you under
446this License. If your rights have been terminated and not permanently
447reinstated, you do not qualify to receive new licenses for the same
448material under section 10.
449
450 9. Acceptance Not Required for Having Copies.
451
452 You are not required to accept this License in order to receive or
453run a copy of the Program. Ancillary propagation of a covered work
454occurring solely as a consequence of using peer-to-peer transmission
455to receive a copy likewise does not require acceptance. However,
456nothing other than this License grants you permission to propagate or
457modify any covered work. These actions infringe copyright if you do
458not accept this License. Therefore, by modifying or propagating a
459covered work, you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so.
460
461 10. Automatic Licensing of Downstream Recipients.
462
463 Each time you convey a covered work, the recipient automatically
464receives a license from the original licensors, to run, modify and
465propagate that work, subject to this License. You are not responsible
466for enforcing compliance by third parties with this License.
467
468 An "entity transaction" is a transaction transferring control of an
469organization, or substantially all assets of one, or subdividing an
470organization, or merging organizations. If propagation of a covered
471work results from an entity transaction, each party to that
472transaction who receives a copy of the work also receives whatever
473licenses to the work the party's predecessor in interest had or could
474give under the previous paragraph, plus a right to possession of the
475Corresponding Source of the work from the predecessor in interest, if
476the predecessor has it or can get it with reasonable efforts.
477
478 You may not impose any further restrictions on the exercise of the
479rights granted or affirmed under this License. For example, you may
480not impose a license fee, royalty, or other charge for exercise of
481rights granted under this License, and you may not initiate litigation
482(including a cross-claim or counterclaim in a lawsuit) alleging that
483any patent claim is infringed by making, using, selling, offering for
484sale, or importing the Program or any portion of it.
485
486 11. Patents.
487
488 A "contributor" is a copyright holder who authorizes use under this
489License of the Program or a work on which the Program is based. The
490work thus licensed is called the contributor's "contributor version".
491
492 A contributor's "essential patent claims" are all patent claims
493owned or controlled by the contributor, whether already acquired or
494hereafter acquired, that would be infringed by some manner, permitted
495by this License, of making, using, or selling its contributor version,
496but do not include claims that would be infringed only as a
497consequence of further modification of the contributor version. For
498purposes of this definition, "control" includes the right to grant
499patent sublicenses in a manner consistent with the requirements of
500this License.
501
502 Each contributor grants you a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free
503patent license under the contributor's essential patent claims, to
504make, use, sell, offer for sale, import and otherwise run, modify and
505propagate the contents of its contributor version.
506
507 In the following three paragraphs, a "patent license" is any express
508agreement or commitment, however denominated, not to enforce a patent
509(such as an express permission to practice a patent or covenant not to
510sue for patent infringement). To "grant" such a patent license to a
511party means to make such an agreement or commitment not to enforce a
512patent against the party.
513
514 If you convey a covered work, knowingly relying on a patent license,
515and the Corresponding Source of the work is not available for anyone
516to copy, free of charge and under the terms of this License, through a
517publicly available network server or other readily accessible means,
518then you must either (1) cause the Corresponding Source to be so
519available, or (2) arrange to deprive yourself of the benefit of the
520patent license for this particular work, or (3) arrange, in a manner
521consistent with the requirements of this License, to extend the patent
522license to downstream recipients. "Knowingly relying" means you have
523actual knowledge that, but for the patent license, your conveying the
524covered work in a country, or your recipient's use of the covered work
525in a country, would infringe one or more identifiable patents in that
526country that you have reason to believe are valid.
527
528 If, pursuant to or in connection with a single transaction or
529arrangement, you convey, or propagate by procuring conveyance of, a
530covered work, and grant a patent license to some of the parties
531receiving the covered work authorizing them to use, propagate, modify
532or convey a specific copy of the covered work, then the patent license
533you grant is automatically extended to all recipients of the covered
534work and works based on it.
535
536 A patent license is "discriminatory" if it does not include within
537the scope of its coverage, prohibits the exercise of, or is
538conditioned on the non-exercise of one or more of the rights that are
539specifically granted under this License. You may not convey a covered
540work if you are a party to an arrangement with a third party that is
541in the business of distributing software, under which you make payment
542to the third party based on the extent of your activity of conveying
543the work, and under which the third party grants, to any of the
544parties who would receive the covered work from you, a discriminatory
545patent license (a) in connection with copies of the covered work
546conveyed by you (or copies made from those copies), or (b) primarily
547for and in connection with specific products or compilations that
548contain the covered work, unless you entered into that arrangement,
549or that patent license was granted, prior to 28 March 2007.
550
551 Nothing in this License shall be construed as excluding or limiting
552any implied license or other defenses to infringement that may
553otherwise be available to you under applicable patent law.
554
555 12. No Surrender of Others' Freedom.
556
557 If conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or
558otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not
559excuse you from the conditions of this License. If you cannot convey a
560covered work so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this
561License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you may
562not convey it at all. For example, if you agree to terms that obligate you
563to collect a royalty for further conveying from those to whom you convey
564the Program, the only way you could satisfy both those terms and this
565License would be to refrain entirely from conveying the Program.
566
567 13. Use with the GNU Affero General Public License.
568
569 Notwithstanding any other provision of this License, you have
570permission to link or combine any covered work with a work licensed
571under version 3 of the GNU Affero General Public License into a single
572combined work, and to convey the resulting work. The terms of this
573License will continue to apply to the part which is the covered work,
574but the special requirements of the GNU Affero General Public License,
575section 13, concerning interaction through a network will apply to the
576combination as such.
577
578 14. Revised Versions of this License.
579
580 The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions of
581the GNU General Public License from time to time. Such new versions will
582be similar in spirit to the present version, but may differ in detail to
583address new problems or concerns.
584
585 Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the
586Program specifies that a certain numbered version of the GNU General
587Public License "or any later version" applies to it, you have the
588option of following the terms and conditions either of that numbered
589version or of any later version published by the Free Software
590Foundation. If the Program does not specify a version number of the
591GNU General Public License, you may choose any version ever published
592by the Free Software Foundation.
593
594 If the Program specifies that a proxy can decide which future
595versions of the GNU General Public License can be used, that proxy's
596public statement of acceptance of a version permanently authorizes you
597to choose that version for the Program.
598
599 Later license versions may give you additional or different
600permissions. However, no additional obligations are imposed on any
601author or copyright holder as a result of your choosing to follow a
602later version.
603
604 15. Disclaimer of Warranty.
605
606 THERE IS NO WARRANTY FOR THE PROGRAM, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY
607APPLICABLE LAW. EXCEPT WHEN OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT
608HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER PARTIES PROVIDE THE PROGRAM "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY
609OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO,
610THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR
611PURPOSE. THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE PROGRAM
612IS WITH YOU. SHOULD THE PROGRAM PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE COST OF
613ALL NECESSARY SERVICING, REPAIR OR CORRECTION.
614
615 16. Limitation of Liability.
616
617 IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN WRITING
618WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MODIFIES AND/OR CONVEYS
619THE PROGRAM AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES, INCLUDING ANY
620GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THE
621USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF
622DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY YOU OR THIRD
623PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF THE PROGRAM TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER PROGRAMS),
624EVEN IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF
625SUCH DAMAGES.
626
627 17. Interpretation of Sections 15 and 16.
628
629 If the disclaimer of warranty and limitation of liability provided
630above cannot be given local legal effect according to their terms,
631reviewing courts shall apply local law that most closely approximates
632an absolute waiver of all civil liability in connection with the
633Program, unless a warranty or assumption of liability accompanies a
634copy of the Program in return for a fee.
635
636 END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS

638 How to Apply These Terms to Your New Programs
639
640 If you develop a new program, and you want it to be of the greatest
641possible use to the public, the best way to achieve this is to make it
642free software which everyone can redistribute and change under these terms.
643
644 To do so, attach the following notices to the program. It is safest
645to attach them to the start of each source file to most effectively
646state the exclusion of warranty; and each file should have at least
647the "copyright" line and a pointer to where the full notice is found.
648
649 <one line to give the program's name and a brief idea of what it does.>
650 Copyright (C) <year> <name of author>
651
652 This program is free software: you can redistribute it and/or modify
653 it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by
654 the Free Software Foundation, either version 3 of the License, or
655 (at your option) any later version.
656
657 This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful,
658 but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of
659 MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. See the
660 GNU General Public License for more details.
661
662 You should have received a copy of the GNU General Public License
663 along with this program. If not, see <https://www.gnu.org/licenses/>.
664
665Also add information on how to contact you by electronic and paper mail.
666
667 If the program does terminal interaction, make it output a short
668notice like this when it starts in an interactive mode:
669
670 <program> Copyright (C) <year> <name of author>
671 This program comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY; for details type `show w'.
672 This is free software, and you are welcome to redistribute it
673 under certain conditions; type `show c' for details.
674
675The hypothetical commands `show w' and `show c' should show the appropriate
676parts of the General Public License. Of course, your program's commands
677might be different; for a GUI interface, you would use an "about box".
678
679 You should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer) or school,
680if any, to sign a "copyright disclaimer" for the program, if necessary.
681For more information on this, and how to apply and follow the GNU GPL, see
682<https://www.gnu.org/licenses/>.
683
684 The GNU General Public License does not permit incorporating your program
685into proprietary programs. If your program is a subroutine library, you
686may consider it more useful to permit linking proprietary applications with
687the library. If this is what you want to do, use the GNU Lesser General
688Public License instead of this License. But first, please read
