language. (Hereinafter, translation
is
included
without limitation in the term
"modification".)
Each licensee is addressed
as
"you".
Activities other than copying, distribution and
modification are not covered by this License; they are
outside its scope. The act
of
running the Program
is not
restricted, and the output from the Program
is covered
only
if
its contents constitute a work based on the
Program (independent
of
having been made by running
the Program).
Whether that
is
true depends on what the
Program does.
1.
You may copy and distribute 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 and disclaimer
of
warranty; keep
intact all the notices that refer to this License and
to the absence
of
any warranty; and give any other
recipients
of
the
Program
a copy
of
this License
along with the
Program.
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
Program
or any portion
of
it,
thus forming a work
based on the Program,
and copy and distribute
such modifications or work under the terms
of
Section 1 above, provided that you also meet all
of
these conditions:
a) You must cause the modified files to carry
prominent notices stating that you changed
the files and the date
of
any change.
b) You must cause any work that you distribute
or publish, that in whole or in part contains
or
is derived from the
Program
or
any part
thereof, to be licensed
as
a whole at no
charge to all third parties under the terms
of
this License.
c)
If
the modified program normally reads
commands interactively when run, you must
cause it, when started running for such
interactive use in the most ordinary way, to
print or display an announcement including
an appropriate copyright notice and a notice
that there
is
no warranty (or else, saying that
you provide a warranty) and that users may
redistribute the program under these
conditions, and telling the user how to view a
copy
of
this License. (Exception:
if
the
Program
itself
is
interactive but does not
normally print such an announcement, your
work based on the Program
is not required to
print an announcement.)
These requirements apply to the
modified work as a
whole.
If
identifiable sections
of
that work are not
derived from
the Program,
and can be reasonably
considered independent and separate
works·in
themselves, then this License, and its terms, do not
apply to those sections when you distribute them as
separate works. But when you distribute the same
sections
as
part
of
a whole which is a work based on the
Program,
the distribution
of
the whole must be on the
terms
of
this License, whose permissions for other
licensees extend to the entire whole, and thus to each
and every part regardless
of
who wrote it.
Thus, it
is
not the intent
of
this
se~tion
to claim rights
or contest your rights to work written entirely by
you;
rather, the intent is to exercise the right to control the
distribution
of
derivative or collective works based on
the
Program.
In addition, mere aggregation
of
another work not
based on the
Program
with the
Program.(or
with a work
based on the
Program) on a volume
of
a storage or
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 modifications to it. For an
executable work, complete source code means all
t~e
source code for all modules it contains, plus any
associated interface definition files, plus the scripts
used to control compilation and installation
of
the
executable. However,
as
a
sp~cial
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
tha\ 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.
