If the modified program normally reads commands
c.
interactively when run, you must cause it, when
it has 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 Licence. (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 Licence 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 Licence, 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 section 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 Licence.
You may copy and distribute the Program (or a
3.
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:
Accompany it with the complete corresponding
a.
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,
Accompany it with a written offer, valid for at least
b.
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,
Accompany it with the information you received
c.
as to the offer to distribute corresponding source
code. (This alternative is allowed only for non-
commercial 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
the 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 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.
You may not copy, modify, sublicense or distribute
4.
the Program except as expressly provided under
this Licence. Any attempt otherwise to copy, modify,
sublicense or distribute the Program is void and will
automatically terminate your rights under this Licence.
However, parties who have received copies or rights,
from you under this Licence will not have their licenses
terminated so long as such parties remain in full
compliance.
You are not required to accept this Licence, since you
5.
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 Licence. Therefore, by modifying
or distributing the Program (or any work based on the
Program), you indicate your acceptance of this Licence
to do so and all its terms and conditions for copying,
distributing or modifying the Program or works based
on it.
Each time you redistribute the Program (or any work
6.
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 Licence.
