How to Apply These Terms to Your New Libraries
If you develop a new library, and you want it to be of the greatest possible use to the
public, we recommend making it free software that everyone can redistribute and change.
You can do so by permitting redistribution under these terms (or, alternatively, under the
terms of the ordinary General Public License).
To apply these terms, attach the following notices to the library. It is safest to attach them
to the start of each source file to most effectively convey 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 library’s name and a brief idea of what it does.>
Copyright © <year> <name of author>
This library is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify it under the terms of
the GNU Lesser General Public License as published by the Free Software Foundation;
either version 2.1 of the License, or (at your option) any later version.
This library 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 Lesser General Public License for more
details.
You should have received a copy of the GNU Lesser General Public License along with
this library; if not, write to the Free Software Foundation, Inc., 51 Franklin St, Fifth Floor,
Boston, MA 02110-1301 USA.
Also add information on how to contact you by electronic and paper mail.
You should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer) or your school, if any,
to sign a “copyright disclaimer” for the library, if necessary. Here is a sample; alter the
names:
Yoyodyne, Inc., hereby disclaims all copyright interest in the library `Frob’ (a library for
tweaking knobs) written by James Random Hacker.
