1.1 rubenllo 1: GNU AFFERO GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE
2: Version 3, 19 November 2007
3:
4: Copyright (C) 2007 Free Software Foundation, Inc. <http://fsf.org/>
5: Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies
6: of this license document, but changing it is not allowed.
7:
8: Preamble
9:
10: The GNU Affero General Public License is a free, copyleft license for
11: software and other kinds of works, specifically designed to ensure
12: cooperation with the community in the case of network server software.
13:
14: The licenses for most software and other practical works are designed
15: to take away your freedom to share and change the works. By contrast,
16: our General Public Licenses are intended to guarantee your freedom to
17: share and change all versions of a program--to make sure it remains free
18: software for all its users.
19:
20: When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not
21: price. Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that you
22: have the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge for
23: them if you wish), that you receive source code or can get it if you
24: want it, that you can change the software or use pieces of it in new
25: free programs, and that you know you can do these things.
26:
27: Developers that use our General Public Licenses protect your rights
28: with two steps: (1) assert copyright on the software, and (2) offer
29: you this License which gives you legal permission to copy, distribute
30: and/or modify the software.
31:
32: A secondary benefit of defending all users' freedom is that
33: improvements made in alternate versions of the program, if they
34: receive widespread use, become available for other developers to
35: incorporate. Many developers of free software are heartened and
36: encouraged by the resulting cooperation. However, in the case of
37: software used on network servers, this result may fail to come about.
38: The GNU General Public License permits making a modified version and
39: letting the public access it on a server without ever releasing its
40: source code to the public.
41:
42: The GNU Affero General Public License is designed specifically to
43: ensure that, in such cases, the modified source code becomes available
44: to the community. It requires the operator of a network server to
45: provide the source code of the modified version running there to the
46: users of that server. Therefore, public use of a modified version, on
47: a publicly accessible server, gives the public access to the source
48: code of the modified version.
49:
50: An older license, called the Affero General Public License and
51: published by Affero, was designed to accomplish similar goals. This is
52: a different license, not a version of the Affero GPL, but Affero has
53: released a new version of the Affero GPL which permits relicensing under
54: this license.
55:
56: The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and
57: modification follow.
58:
59: TERMS AND CONDITIONS
60:
61: 0. Definitions.
62:
63: "This License" refers to version 3 of the GNU Affero General Public License.
64:
65: "Copyright" also means copyright-like laws that apply to other kinds of
66: works, such as semiconductor masks.
67:
68: "The Program" refers to any copyrightable work licensed under this
69: License. Each licensee is addressed as "you". "Licensees" and
70: "recipients" may be individuals or organizations.
71:
72: To "modify" a work means to copy from or adapt all or part of the work
73: in a fashion requiring copyright permission, other than the making of an
74: exact copy. The resulting work is called a "modified version" of the
75: earlier work or a work "based on" the earlier work.
76:
77: A "covered work" means either the unmodified Program or a work based
78: on the Program.
79:
80: To "propagate" a work means to do anything with it that, without
81: permission, would make you directly or secondarily liable for
82: infringement under applicable copyright law, except executing it on a
83: computer or modifying a private copy. Propagation includes copying,
84: distribution (with or without modification), making available to the
85: public, and in some countries other activities as well.
86:
87: To "convey" a work means any kind of propagation that enables other
88: parties to make or receive copies. Mere interaction with a user through
89: a computer network, with no transfer of a copy, is not conveying.
90:
91: An interactive user interface displays "Appropriate Legal Notices"
92: to the extent that it includes a convenient and prominently visible
93: feature that (1) displays an appropriate copyright notice, and (2)
94: tells the user that there is no warranty for the work (except to the
95: extent that warranties are provided), that licensees may convey the
96: work under this License, and how to view a copy of this License. If
97: the interface presents a list of user commands or options, such as a
98: menu, a prominent item in the list meets this criterion.
99:
100: 1. Source Code.
101:
102: The "source code" for a work means the preferred form of the work
103: for making modifications to it. "Object code" means any non-source
104: form of a work.
105:
106: A "Standard Interface" means an interface that either is an official
107: standard defined by a recognized standards body, or, in the case of
108: interfaces specified for a particular programming language, one that
109: is widely used among developers working in that language.
110:
111: The "System Libraries" of an executable work include anything, other
112: than the work as a whole, that (a) is included in the normal form of
113: packaging a Major Component, but which is not part of that Major
114: Component, and (b) serves only to enable use of the work with that
115: Major Component, or to implement a Standard Interface for which an
116: implementation is available to the public in source code form. A
117: "Major Component", in this context, means a major essential component
118: (kernel, window system, and so on) of the specific operating system
119: (if any) on which the executable work runs, or a compiler used to
120: produce the work, or an object code interpreter used to run it.
121:
122: The "Corresponding Source" for a work in object code form means all
123: the source code needed to generate, install, and (for an executable
124: work) run the object code and to modify the work, including scripts to
125: control those activities. However, it does not include the work's
126: System Libraries, or general-purpose tools or generally available free
127: programs which are used unmodified in performing those activities but
128: which are not part of the work. For example, Corresponding Source
129: includes interface definition files associated with source files for
130: the work, and the source code for shared libraries and dynamically
131: linked subprograms that the work is specifically designed to require,
132: such as by intimate data communication or control flow between those
133: subprograms and other parts of the work.
134:
135: The Corresponding Source need not include anything that users
136: can regenerate automatically from other parts of the Corresponding
137: Source.
138:
139: The Corresponding Source for a work in source code form is that
140: same work.
141:
142: 2. Basic Permissions.
143:
144: All rights granted under this License are granted for the term of
145: copyright on the Program, and are irrevocable provided the stated
146: conditions are met. This License explicitly affirms your unlimited
147: permission to run the unmodified Program. The output from running a
148: covered work is covered by this License only if the output, given its
149: content, constitutes a covered work. This License acknowledges your
150: rights of fair use or other equivalent, as provided by copyright law.
151:
152: You may make, run and propagate covered works that you do not
153: convey, without conditions so long as your license otherwise remains
154: in force. You may convey covered works to others for the sole purpose
155: of having them make modifications exclusively for you, or provide you
156: with facilities for running those works, provided that you comply with
157: the terms of this License in conveying all material for which you do
158: not control copyright. Those thus making or running the covered works
159: for you must do so exclusively on your behalf, under your direction
160: and control, on terms that prohibit them from making any copies of
161: your copyrighted material outside their relationship with you.
162:
163: Conveying under any other circumstances is permitted solely under
164: the conditions stated below. Sublicensing is not allowed; section 10
165: makes it unnecessary.
166:
167: 3. Protecting Users' Legal Rights From Anti-Circumvention Law.
168:
169: No covered work shall be deemed part of an effective technological
170: measure under any applicable law fulfilling obligations under article
171: 11 of the WIPO copyright treaty adopted on 20 December 1996, or
172: similar laws prohibiting or restricting circumvention of such
173: measures.
174:
175: When you convey a covered work, you waive any legal power to forbid
176: circumvention of technological measures to the extent such circumvention
177: is effected by exercising rights under this License with respect to
178: the covered work, and you disclaim any intention to limit operation or
179: modification of the work as a means of enforcing, against the work's
180: users, your or third parties' legal rights to forbid circumvention of
181: technological measures.
182:
183: 4. Conveying Verbatim Copies.
184:
185: You may convey verbatim copies of the Program's source code as you
186: receive it, in any medium, provided that you conspicuously and
187: appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate copyright notice;
188: keep intact all notices stating that this License and any
189: non-permissive terms added in accord with section 7 apply to the code;
190: keep intact all notices of the absence of any warranty; and give all
191: recipients a copy of this License along with the Program.
192:
193: You may charge any price or no price for each copy that you convey,
194: and you may offer support or warranty protection for a fee.
195:
196: 5. Conveying Modified Source Versions.
197:
198: You may convey a work based on the Program, or the modifications to
199: produce it from the Program, in the form of source code under the
200: terms of section 4, provided that you also meet all of these conditions:
201:
202: a) The work must carry prominent notices stating that you modified
203: it, and giving a relevant date.
204:
205: b) The work must carry prominent notices stating that it is
206: released under this License and any conditions added under section
207: 7. This requirement modifies the requirement in section 4 to
208: "keep intact all notices".
209:
210: c) You must license the entire work, as a whole, under this
211: License to anyone who comes into possession of a copy. This
212: License will therefore apply, along with any applicable section 7
213: additional terms, to the whole of the work, and all its parts,
214: regardless of how they are packaged. This License gives no
215: permission to license the work in any other way, but it does not
216: invalidate such permission if you have separately received it.
217:
218: d) If the work has interactive user interfaces, each must display
219: Appropriate Legal Notices; however, if the Program has interactive
220: interfaces that do not display Appropriate Legal Notices, your
221: work need not make them do so.
222:
223: A compilation of a covered work with other separate and independent
224: works, which are not by their nature extensions of the covered work,
225: and which are not combined with it such as to form a larger program,
226: in or on a volume of a storage or distribution medium, is called an
227: "aggregate" if the compilation and its resulting copyright are not
228: used to limit the access or legal rights of the compilation's users
229: beyond what the individual works permit. Inclusion of a covered work
230: in an aggregate does not cause this License to apply to the other
231: parts of the aggregate.
232:
233: 6. Conveying Non-Source Forms.
234:
235: You may convey a covered work in object code form under the terms
236: of sections 4 and 5, provided that you also convey the
237: machine-readable Corresponding Source under the terms of this License,
238: in one of these ways:
239:
240: a) Convey the object code in, or embodied in, a physical product
241: (including a physical distribution medium), accompanied by the
242: Corresponding Source fixed on a durable physical medium
243: customarily used for software interchange.
244:
245: b) Convey the object code in, or embodied in, a physical product
246: (including a physical distribution medium), accompanied by a
247: written offer, valid for at least three years and valid for as
248: long as you offer spare parts or customer support for that product
249: model, to give anyone who possesses the object code either (1) a
250: copy of the Corresponding Source for all the software in the
251: product that is covered by this License, on a durable physical
252: medium customarily used for software interchange, for a price no
253: more than your reasonable cost of physically performing this
254: conveying of source, or (2) access to copy the
255: Corresponding Source from a network server at no charge.
256:
257: c) Convey individual copies of the object code with a copy of the
258: written offer to provide the Corresponding Source. This
259: alternative is allowed only occasionally and noncommercially, and
260: only if you received the object code with such an offer, in accord
261: with subsection 6b.
262:
263: d) Convey the object code by offering access from a designated
264: place (gratis or for a charge), and offer equivalent access to the
265: Corresponding Source in the same way through the same place at no
266: further charge. You need not require recipients to copy the
267: Corresponding Source along with the object code. If the place to
268: copy the object code is a network server, the Corresponding Source
269: may be on a different server (operated by you or a third party)
270: that supports equivalent copying facilities, provided you maintain
271: clear directions next to the object code saying where to find the
272: Corresponding Source. Regardless of what server hosts the
273: Corresponding Source, you remain obligated to ensure that it is
274: available for as long as needed to satisfy these requirements.
275:
276: e) Convey the object code using peer-to-peer transmission, provided
277: you inform other peers where the object code and Corresponding
278: Source of the work are being offered to the general public at no
279: charge under subsection 6d.
280:
281: A separable portion of the object code, whose source code is excluded
282: from the Corresponding Source as a System Library, need not be
283: included in conveying the object code work.
284:
285: A "User Product" is either (1) a "consumer product", which means any
286: tangible personal property which is normally used for personal, family,
287: or household purposes, or (2) anything designed or sold for incorporation
288: into a dwelling. In determining whether a product is a consumer product,
289: doubtful cases shall be resolved in favor of coverage. For a particular
290: product received by a particular user, "normally used" refers to a
291: typical or common use of that class of product, regardless of the status
292: of the particular user or of the way in which the particular user
293: actually uses, or expects or is expected to use, the product. A product
294: is a consumer product regardless of whether the product has substantial
295: commercial, industrial or non-consumer uses, unless such uses represent
296: the only significant mode of use of the product.
297:
298: "Installation Information" for a User Product means any methods,
299: procedures, authorization keys, or other information required to install
300: and execute modified versions of a covered work in that User Product from
301: a modified version of its Corresponding Source. The information must
302: suffice to ensure that the continued functioning of the modified object
303: code is in no case prevented or interfered with solely because
304: modification has been made.
305:
306: If you convey an object code work under this section in, or with, or
307: specifically for use in, a User Product, and the conveying occurs as
308: part of a transaction in which the right of possession and use of the
309: User Product is transferred to the recipient in perpetuity or for a
310: fixed term (regardless of how the transaction is characterized), the
311: Corresponding Source conveyed under this section must be accompanied
312: by the Installation Information. But this requirement does not apply
313: if neither you nor any third party retains the ability to install
314: modified object code on the User Product (for example, the work has
315: been installed in ROM).
316:
317: The requirement to provide Installation Information does not include a
318: requirement to continue to provide support service, warranty, or updates
319: for a work that has been modified or installed by the recipient, or for
320: the User Product in which it has been modified or installed. Access to a
321: network may be denied when the modification itself materially and
322: adversely affects the operation of the network or violates the rules and
323: protocols for communication across the network.
324:
325: Corresponding Source conveyed, and Installation Information provided,
326: in accord with this section must be in a format that is publicly
327: documented (and with an implementation available to the public in
328: source code form), and must require no special password or key for
329: unpacking, reading or copying.
330:
331: 7. Additional Terms.
332:
333: "Additional permissions" are terms that supplement the terms of this
334: License by making exceptions from one or more of its conditions.
335: Additional permissions that are applicable to the entire Program shall
336: be treated as though they were included in this License, to the extent
337: that they are valid under applicable law. If additional permissions
338: apply only to part of the Program, that part may be used separately
339: under those permissions, but the entire Program remains governed by
340: this License without regard to the additional permissions.
341:
342: When you convey a copy of a covered work, you may at your option
343: remove any additional permissions from that copy, or from any part of
344: it. (Additional permissions may be written to require their own
345: removal in certain cases when you modify the work.) You may place
346: additional permissions on material, added by you to a covered work,
347: for which you have or can give appropriate copyright permission.
348:
349: Notwithstanding any other provision of this License, for material you
350: add to a covered work, you may (if authorized by the copyright holders of
351: that material) supplement the terms of this License with terms:
352:
353: a) Disclaiming warranty or limiting liability differently from the
354: terms of sections 15 and 16 of this License; or
355:
356: b) Requiring preservation of specified reasonable legal notices or
357: author attributions in that material or in the Appropriate Legal
358: Notices displayed by works containing it; or
359:
360: c) Prohibiting misrepresentation of the origin of that material, or
361: requiring that modified versions of such material be marked in
362: reasonable ways as different from the original version; or
363:
364: d) Limiting the use for publicity purposes of names of licensors or
365: authors of the material; or
366:
367: e) Declining to grant rights under trademark law for use of some
368: trade names, trademarks, or service marks; or
369:
370: f) Requiring indemnification of licensors and authors of that
371: material by anyone who conveys the material (or modified versions of
372: it) with contractual assumptions of liability to the recipient, for
373: any liability that these contractual assumptions directly impose on
374: those licensors and authors.
375:
376: All other non-permissive additional terms are considered "further
377: restrictions" within the meaning of section 10. If the Program as you
378: received it, or any part of it, contains a notice stating that it is
379: governed by this License along with a term that is a further
380: restriction, you may remove that term. If a license document contains
381: a further restriction but permits relicensing or conveying under this
382: License, you may add to a covered work material governed by the terms
383: of that license document, provided that the further restriction does
384: not survive such relicensing or conveying.
385:
386: If you add terms to a covered work in accord with this section, you
387: must place, in the relevant source files, a statement of the
388: additional terms that apply to those files, or a notice indicating
389: where to find the applicable terms.
390:
391: Additional terms, permissive or non-permissive, may be stated in the
392: form of a separately written license, or stated as exceptions;
393: the above requirements apply either way.
394:
395: 8. Termination.
396:
397: You may not propagate or modify a covered work except as expressly
398: provided under this License. Any attempt otherwise to propagate or
399: modify it is void, and will automatically terminate your rights under
400: this License (including any patent licenses granted under the third
401: paragraph of section 11).
402:
403: However, if you cease all violation of this License, then your
404: license from a particular copyright holder is reinstated (a)
405: provisionally, unless and until the copyright holder explicitly and
406: finally terminates your license, and (b) permanently, if the copyright
407: holder fails to notify you of the violation by some reasonable means
408: prior to 60 days after the cessation.
409:
410: Moreover, your license from a particular copyright holder is
411: reinstated permanently if the copyright holder notifies you of the
412: violation by some reasonable means, this is the first time you have
413: received notice of violation of this License (for any work) from that
414: copyright holder, and you cure the violation prior to 30 days after
415: your receipt of the notice.
416:
417: Termination of your rights under this section does not terminate the
418: licenses of parties who have received copies or rights from you under
419: this License. If your rights have been terminated and not permanently
420: reinstated, you do not qualify to receive new licenses for the same
421: material under section 10.
422:
423: 9. Acceptance Not Required for Having Copies.
424:
425: You are not required to accept this License in order to receive or
426: run a copy of the Program. Ancillary propagation of a covered work
427: occurring solely as a consequence of using peer-to-peer transmission
428: to receive a copy likewise does not require acceptance. However,
429: nothing other than this License grants you permission to propagate or
430: modify any covered work. These actions infringe copyright if you do
431: not accept this License. Therefore, by modifying or propagating a
432: covered work, you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so.
433:
434: 10. Automatic Licensing of Downstream Recipients.
435:
436: Each time you convey a covered work, the recipient automatically
437: receives a license from the original licensors, to run, modify and
438: propagate that work, subject to this License. You are not responsible
439: for enforcing compliance by third parties with this License.
440:
441: An "entity transaction" is a transaction transferring control of an
442: organization, or substantially all assets of one, or subdividing an
443: organization, or merging organizations. If propagation of a covered
444: work results from an entity transaction, each party to that
445: transaction who receives a copy of the work also receives whatever
446: licenses to the work the party's predecessor in interest had or could
447: give under the previous paragraph, plus a right to possession of the
448: Corresponding Source of the work from the predecessor in interest, if
449: the predecessor has it or can get it with reasonable efforts.
450:
451: You may not impose any further restrictions on the exercise of the
452: rights granted or affirmed under this License. For example, you may
453: not impose a license fee, royalty, or other charge for exercise of
454: rights granted under this License, and you may not initiate litigation
455: (including a cross-claim or counterclaim in a lawsuit) alleging that
456: any patent claim is infringed by making, using, selling, offering for
457: sale, or importing the Program or any portion of it.
458:
459: 11. Patents.
460:
461: A "contributor" is a copyright holder who authorizes use under this
462: License of the Program or a work on which the Program is based. The
463: work thus licensed is called the contributor's "contributor version".
464:
465: A contributor's "essential patent claims" are all patent claims
466: owned or controlled by the contributor, whether already acquired or
467: hereafter acquired, that would be infringed by some manner, permitted
468: by this License, of making, using, or selling its contributor version,
469: but do not include claims that would be infringed only as a
470: consequence of further modification of the contributor version. For
471: purposes of this definition, "control" includes the right to grant
472: patent sublicenses in a manner consistent with the requirements of
473: this License.
474:
475: Each contributor grants you a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free
476: patent license under the contributor's essential patent claims, to
477: make, use, sell, offer for sale, import and otherwise run, modify and
478: propagate the contents of its contributor version.
479:
480: In the following three paragraphs, a "patent license" is any express
481: agreement or commitment, however denominated, not to enforce a patent
482: (such as an express permission to practice a patent or covenant not to
483: sue for patent infringement). To "grant" such a patent license to a
484: party means to make such an agreement or commitment not to enforce a
485: patent against the party.
486:
487: If you convey a covered work, knowingly relying on a patent license,
488: and the Corresponding Source of the work is not available for anyone
489: to copy, free of charge and under the terms of this License, through a
490: publicly available network server or other readily accessible means,
491: then you must either (1) cause the Corresponding Source to be so
492: available, or (2) arrange to deprive yourself of the benefit of the
493: patent license for this particular work, or (3) arrange, in a manner
494: consistent with the requirements of this License, to extend the patent
495: license to downstream recipients. "Knowingly relying" means you have
496: actual knowledge that, but for the patent license, your conveying the
497: covered work in a country, or your recipient's use of the covered work
498: in a country, would infringe one or more identifiable patents in that
499: country that you have reason to believe are valid.
500:
501: If, pursuant to or in connection with a single transaction or
502: arrangement, you convey, or propagate by procuring conveyance of, a
503: covered work, and grant a patent license to some of the parties
504: receiving the covered work authorizing them to use, propagate, modify
505: or convey a specific copy of the covered work, then the patent license
506: you grant is automatically extended to all recipients of the covered
507: work and works based on it.
508:
509: A patent license is "discriminatory" if it does not include within
510: the scope of its coverage, prohibits the exercise of, or is
511: conditioned on the non-exercise of one or more of the rights that are
512: specifically granted under this License. You may not convey a covered
513: work if you are a party to an arrangement with a third party that is
514: in the business of distributing software, under which you make payment
515: to the third party based on the extent of your activity of conveying
516: the work, and under which the third party grants, to any of the
517: parties who would receive the covered work from you, a discriminatory
518: patent license (a) in connection with copies of the covered work
519: conveyed by you (or copies made from those copies), or (b) primarily
520: for and in connection with specific products or compilations that
521: contain the covered work, unless you entered into that arrangement,
522: or that patent license was granted, prior to 28 March 2007.
523:
524: Nothing in this License shall be construed as excluding or limiting
525: any implied license or other defenses to infringement that may
526: otherwise be available to you under applicable patent law.
527:
528: 12. No Surrender of Others' Freedom.
529:
530: If conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or
531: otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not
532: excuse you from the conditions of this License. If you cannot convey a
533: covered work so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this
534: License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you may
535: not convey it at all. For example, if you agree to terms that obligate you
536: to collect a royalty for further conveying from those to whom you convey
537: the Program, the only way you could satisfy both those terms and this
538: License would be to refrain entirely from conveying the Program.
539:
540: 13. Remote Network Interaction; Use with the GNU General Public License.
541:
542: Notwithstanding any other provision of this License, if you modify the
543: Program, your modified version must prominently offer all users
544: interacting with it remotely through a computer network (if your version
545: supports such interaction) an opportunity to receive the Corresponding
546: Source of your version by providing access to the Corresponding Source
547: from a network server at no charge, through some standard or customary
548: means of facilitating copying of software. This Corresponding Source
549: shall include the Corresponding Source for any work covered by version 3
550: of the GNU General Public License that is incorporated pursuant to the
551: following paragraph.
552:
553: Notwithstanding any other provision of this License, you have
554: permission to link or combine any covered work with a work licensed
555: under version 3 of the GNU General Public License into a single
556: combined work, and to convey the resulting work. The terms of this
557: License will continue to apply to the part which is the covered work,
558: but the work with which it is combined will remain governed by version
559: 3 of the GNU General Public License.
560:
561: 14. Revised Versions of this License.
562:
563: The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions of
564: the GNU Affero General Public License from time to time. Such new versions
565: will be similar in spirit to the present version, but may differ in detail to
566: address new problems or concerns.
567:
568: Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the
569: Program specifies that a certain numbered version of the GNU Affero General
570: Public License "or any later version" applies to it, you have the
571: option of following the terms and conditions either of that numbered
572: version or of any later version published by the Free Software
573: Foundation. If the Program does not specify a version number of the
574: GNU Affero General Public License, you may choose any version ever published
575: by the Free Software Foundation.
576:
577: If the Program specifies that a proxy can decide which future
578: versions of the GNU Affero General Public License can be used, that proxy's
579: public statement of acceptance of a version permanently authorizes you
580: to choose that version for the Program.
581:
582: Later license versions may give you additional or different
583: permissions. However, no additional obligations are imposed on any
584: author or copyright holder as a result of your choosing to follow a
585: later version.
586:
587: 15. Disclaimer of Warranty.
588:
589: THERE IS NO WARRANTY FOR THE PROGRAM, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY
590: APPLICABLE LAW. EXCEPT WHEN OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT
591: HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER PARTIES PROVIDE THE PROGRAM "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY
592: OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO,
593: THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR
594: PURPOSE. THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE PROGRAM
595: IS WITH YOU. SHOULD THE PROGRAM PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE COST OF
596: ALL NECESSARY SERVICING, REPAIR OR CORRECTION.
597:
598: 16. Limitation of Liability.
599:
600: IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN WRITING
601: WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MODIFIES AND/OR CONVEYS
602: THE PROGRAM AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES, INCLUDING ANY
603: GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THE
604: USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF
605: DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY YOU OR THIRD
606: PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF THE PROGRAM TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER PROGRAMS),
607: EVEN IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF
608: SUCH DAMAGES.
609:
610: 17. Interpretation of Sections 15 and 16.
611:
612: If the disclaimer of warranty and limitation of liability provided
613: above cannot be given local legal effect according to their terms,
614: reviewing courts shall apply local law that most closely approximates
615: an absolute waiver of all civil liability in connection with the
616: Program, unless a warranty or assumption of liability accompanies a
617: copy of the Program in return for a fee.
618:
619: END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS
620:
621: How to Apply These Terms to Your New Programs
622:
623: If you develop a new program, and you want it to be of the greatest
624: possible use to the public, the best way to achieve this is to make it
625: free software which everyone can redistribute and change under these terms.
626:
627: To do so, attach the following notices to the program. It is safest
628: to attach them to the start of each source file to most effectively
629: state the exclusion of warranty; and each file should have at least
630: the "copyright" line and a pointer to where the full notice is found.
631:
632: <one line to give the program's name and a brief idea of what it does.>
633: Copyright (C) <year> <name of author>
634:
635: This program is free software: you can redistribute it and/or modify
636: it under the terms of the GNU Affero General Public License as published by
637: the Free Software Foundation, either version 3 of the License, or
638: (at your option) any later version.
639:
640: This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful,
641: but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of
642: MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. See the
643: GNU Affero General Public License for more details.
644:
645: You should have received a copy of the GNU Affero General Public License
646: along with this program. If not, see <http://www.gnu.org/licenses/>.
647:
648: Also add information on how to contact you by electronic and paper mail.
649:
650: If your software can interact with users remotely through a computer
651: network, you should also make sure that it provides a way for users to
652: get its source. For example, if your program is a web application, its
653: interface could display a "Source" link that leads users to an archive
654: of the code. There are many ways you could offer source, and different
655: solutions will be better for different programs; see section 13 for the
656: specific requirements.
657:
658: You should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer) or school,
659: if any, to sign a "copyright disclaimer" for the program, if necessary.
660: For more information on this, and how to apply and follow the GNU AGPL, see
