1 root 1.1 GNU AFFERO GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE
2     Version 3, 19 November 2007
3    
4     Copyright (C) 2007 Free Software Foundation, Inc. <https://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 <https://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.
