GNU General Public License   

Version 2, June 1991 

 

Copyright (C) 1989, 1991 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. 

 

PREAMBLE 

The licenses for most software are designed to take away your freedom to share and change it. By contrast, the GNU General Public 
License is intended to guarantee your freedom to share and change free software--to make sure the software is free for all its users. 
This General Public License applies to most of the Free Software Foundation's software and to any other program whose authors 
commit to using it. (Some other Free Software Foundation software is covered by the GNU Lesser General Public License instead.) 
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 this service 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 make restrictions that forbid anyone to deny you these rights or to ask you to surrender the rights. 
These restrictions translate to certain responsibilities for you if you distribute copies of the software or if you modify it. 

 

For example, if you distribute copies of such a program, whether gratis or for a fee, you must give the recipients all the rights that you 
have. 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. 

 

We protect your rights with two steps: (1) copyright the software, and (2) offer you this license which gives you legal permission to 
copy, distribute and/or modify the software. 

 

Also, for each author's protection and ours, we want to make certain that everyone understands that there is no warranty for this free 
software. If the software is modified by someone else and passed on, we want its recipients to know that what they have is not the 
original, so that any problems introduced by others will not reflect on the original authors' reputations. 

 

Finally, any free program is threatened constantly by software patents. We wish to avoid the danger that redistributors of a free 
program will individually obtain patent licenses, in effect making the program proprietary. To prevent this, we have made it clear that 
any patent must be licensed for everyone's free use or not licensed at all. 

 

The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and modification follow. 

 

GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE 

TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION 

0. This License applies to any program or other work which contains a notice placed by the copyright holder saying it may be 
distributed under the terms of this General Public License. The "Program" below refers to any such program or work, and a "work 
based on the Program" means either the Program or any derivative work under copyright law: that is to say, a work containing the 
Program or a portion of it, either verbatim or with modifications and/or translated into another 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.
