However, parti es who have received copies, or rights, from you
under this Lice nse will not have their licen ses termina ted so long as
such p arties r emain in full complian ce.
5. You are not requir e d to acce p t this Li cense, since you have not
sig ned it . Ho wever, nothi ng el se gr ants you permissi on to mod ify or
distribu te the Prog r am or its d e rivati ve works. Th ese action s are
prohibite d by law i f you do not accept this L icense. Therefore, by
modifying o r distribu ting the Program (or any wo rk based on the
Program ), y o u indicate yo ur ac ceptanc e of this Lice nse to d o so, and
all its terms and con ditions for copying, distributin g or modifyin g the
Program or wor ks based on it.
6. Each time you redistr ibute the Program (or a n y work based o n the
Program), th e recipie n t automatica lly receives a licen se from the
original licensor to copy, distribute or modify th e Pro g ram subject to
these terms a n d conditi o ns. You may n o t impose a ny further
restricti o ns on the r ecipients' exercise o f the ri ghts granted
herein.You a r e not r e sponsible fo r enforcing compliance by th ird
parties to this License.
7. If, as a conseque n ce of a co u rt judgment o r allegation of paten t
infringement or for any other reason ( not li mited to patent issues),
conditions a re imposed on you (whethe r by court order, a g reement
or otherwise ) that contradict the co n ditio n s of this License, they d o
not excuse yo u from t h e condition s of this License. If yo u cannot
distribu te so as to satisfy simultaneo u sly your o bligations under thi s
License and an y other pertinent obligat ions, then as a c onseq uence
you may not d i stribute the Program at all. For e xample, if a patent
license would n ot p ermit royalty-free redis tributio n of the Program by
all those wh o receive copies directly or i n directly through you, the n
the only wa y you could satisfy both i t and this License woul d be to
refrain entirely from distribut ion of the Prog ram.
If any po r tion of th is section is held i nvalid or unenforceable under
any parti cu lar circumsta nce, the balance of t h e section i s intended
to apply a n d the sect ion as a whole is intended t o apply in other
circumstance s.
It is not the purpose of this s e ction to induce you to infringe a n y
patents or o ther pro p erty righ t claims or to contest va lidity of a ny
such claims; this section has the so le purpose of protectin g the
integrit y of the free software d istributi on system, which is
implemented by p u blic l icense practices. Many peopl e have made
generous contr ibutions to the wide ra nge of software distrib u ted
through tha t system in reliance on c o nsistent a pplicati o n of that
system; it is up to the auth o r/donor to deci d e i f he or she is willing to
distribu te sof twa re through any oth er system and a licensee cannot
impose that ch oice.
Thi s section is i ntended to make thor oughly clear w ha t is believed to
be a consequenc e of the r e st of th is License.
8. If the distrib u tion and/or use of the Program is r estricted in certain
countries either by patents or by copyrig h ted interfaces, the origina l
copyright h older who p l aces the P rogram under th is Lice n se may
add an explic it geo graphic al distri bution lim itation exclud ing th ose
countries, so that distributio n is permitted only in or a mo ng countri es
not thus e xcluded. In such case, this License i n corporates t he
limitation as if written in t he body of this License.
9. The Fr ee Sof tware Founda tion m ay publis h rev ised an d/or n ew
versions of the G eneral P ublic License from time to ti me . S uch ne w
versions will be similar in spirit to th e pr ese nt versi on, but may diff er
in detail to address new problems or con ce rns.
Each version is g iven a distinguishing ve r sion number . If the
Program specifies a versi on number of this License wh ich app lies to
it and "any late r version", you have the option of follow ing the te rms
and condition s either of that v ersion or of a ny later vers ion published
by the Free Software Foundatio n. If the Program does not speci fy a
version number of t his License, you may cho o se any versio n ever
publis hed b y the Free Sof twar e Found ation.
10. If you wish to incorporate p arts of the Program into other free
progr ams who se dist ributi on con ditions are di fferen t, wr ite to th
e
author to ask fo r permission. For softwa r e which is copyrighted by
the Free Software Foundation, write to th e Free Software

How to Apply Th ese Terms t o Your New Progr a ms
If you de ve lop a ne w p rogram, and yo u want i t to be of the greate st
possible use to the public, the best way to achieve this i s to make i t free
software wh ich everyo n e can redistr ibute and change under th ese
term s
To do so, a ttach the following notices to th e program. I t is safest to
attach them to the start of each source file to most effectively convey t he
exclusion of warranty; an d e ach file should have at least the "copyright"
line an d a pointer to where the full noti ce is fo u nd.

your option) a ny later version.
This progr am is di strib uted i n the h ope tha t it will be usef ul, but

Also add inf o rmation on h o w to conta ct you by electronic and p aper
mail.
If the progra m is int eracti ve, make it output a s hort noti ce l ike this when
it starts i n an inte ractive mode:
Gnomo vision versio n 69, C opyrig ht (C) year name of author
Gnomovision comes w ith ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY; fo r
details typ e `show w'.
This is fre e software, and you are wel co me to redi stribute it under
certain cond i tions; t ype `show c' for details.
The hypothetic a l commands `sho w w' and `show c' should s h ow the
appropriate p arts of th e General P u blic Lice n se. Of cour se, the
commands you use may b e called so me thing other than `show w' and
`show c'; they co uld even b e mouse-clicks or menu items--whatever
suits your p r ogram.
You should als o get your e mp loyer (i f you work as a programmer) o r
your school, i f any, to sign a "cop yr ight disc laimer" for the program, i f
necessary. Here is a sample; alter the n ames:
