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 Library 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  
						

							68NOTICES AND LICENCES FOR SOFTWARE USED IN THIS PRODUCT
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.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 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. 
						

							69NOTICES AND LICENCES FOR SOFTWARE USED IN THIS PRODUCT
Others
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 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.
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.
6. Each time you redistribute the Program 
(or any work 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 License.
7. If, as a consequence of a court judgment 
or allegation of patent infringement or for 
any other reason (not limited to patent 
issues), conditions are imposed on you 
(whether by court order, agreement or 
otherwise) that contradict the conditions of 
this License, they do not excuse you from the 
conditions of this License. If you cannot 
distribute so as to satisfy simultaneously 
your obligations under this License and any 
other pertinent obligations, then as a 
consequence you may not distribute the 
Program at all. For example, if a patent 
license would not permit royalty-free  
						

							70NOTICES AND LICENCES FOR SOFTWARE USED IN THIS PRODUCT
redistribution of the Program by all those 
who receive copies directly or indirectly 
through you, then the only way you could 
satisfy both it and this License would be to 
refrain entirely from distribution of the 
Program.
If any portion of this section is held invalid 
or unenforceable under any particular 
circumstance, the balance of the section is 
intended to apply and the section as a whole 
is intended to apply in other circumstances. 
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 
limitation excluding those countries, so that 
distribution is permitted only in or among 
countries not thus excluded. In such case, 
this License incorporates 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 concerns.
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 version number 
of this License, you may choose any version 
ever published by the Free Software 
Foundation.
10. If you wish to incorporate parts of the 
Program into other free programs whose 
distribution conditions 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 
exceptions for this. Our decision will be 
guided by the two goals of preserving the 
free status of all derivatives of our free 
software and of promoting the sharing and 
reuse of software generally.
