It is not the purpose of this section to induce you
to infringe any patents or other property right
claims or to contest validity of any such claims;
this section has the sole purpose of protecting the
integrity of the free software distribution system,
which is implemented by public license practices.
Many people have made generous contributions
to the wide range of software distributed through
that system in reliance on consistent application
of that system; it is up to the author/donor to
decide if he or she is willing to distribute software
through any other system and a licensee cannot
impose that choice.
This section is intended to make thoroughly clear
what is believed to be a consequence of the rest of
this License.
8.
If the distribution and/or use of the Program is
restricted in certain countries either by patents or
by copyrighted interfaces, the original copyright
holder who places the Program under this License
may add an explicit geographical distribution lim-
itation excluding those countries, so that distribu-
tion is permitted only in or among countries not
thus excluded. In such a case, this License incorpo-
rates the limitation as if written in the body of this
License.
9.
The Free Software Foundation may publish
revised and/or new versions of the General Public
License from time to time. Such new versions will
be similar in spirit to the present version, but may
differ in detail to address new problems or con-
cerns.
Each version is given a distinguishing version
number. If the Program specifies a version number
of this License which applies to it and "any later
version", you have the option of following the
terms and conditions either of that version or of
any later version published by the Free Software
Foundation. If the Program does not specify a ver-
sion number of this License, you may choose any
version ever published by the Free Software Foun-
dation.
10.
If you wish to incorporate parts of the Program
into other free programs whose distribution con-
ditions are different, write to the author to ask for
permission. For software which is copyrighted by
the Free Software Foundation, write to the Free
Software Foundation; we sometimes make excep-
tions for this. Our decision will be guided by the
two goals of preserving the free status of all deriv-
atives of our free software and of promoting the
sharing and reuse of software generally.
NO WARRANTY
11.
BECAUSE THE PROGRAM IS LICENSED FREE OF
CHARGE, THERE IS NO WARRANTY FOR THE PRO-
GRAM, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICA-
BLE LAW. EXCEPT WHEN OTHERWISE STATED IN
WRITING THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS AND/OR
OTHER PARTIES PROVIDE THE PROGRAM "AS IS"
WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EITHER
EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT
LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MER-
CHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR
PURPOSE. THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY
AND PERFORMANCE OF THE PROGRAM IS WITH
YOU. SHOULD THE PROGRAM PROVE DEFECTIVE,
YOU ASSUME THE COST OF ALL NECESSARY SERV-
ICING, REPAIR OR CORRECTION.
12.
IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICA-
BLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN WRITING WILL ANY
COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO
MAY MODIFY AND/OR REDISTRIBUTE THE PRO-
GRAM AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU
FOR DAMAGES, INCLUDING ANY GENERAL, SPE-
CIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES
ARISING OUT OF THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE
THE PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO
LOSS OF DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED INAC-
CURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY YOU OR THIRD
PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF THE PROGRAM TO
OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER PROGRAMS), EVEN IF
SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN
ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS
How to Apply These Terms to Your
New Programs
If you develop a new program, and you want it to
be of the greatest possible use to the public, the
best way to achieve this is to make it free software
which everyone can redistribute and change
under these terms.
To do so, attach the following notices to the pro-
gram. It is safest to attach them to the start of each
source file to most effectively convey the exclu-
sion of warranty; and each file should have at least
the "copyright" line and a pointer to where the full
notice is found.
