Revision: 1.1
Committed: Sun Jul 1 05:00:17 2007 UTC (16 years, 10 months ago) by root
Branch: MAIN
Log Message:
- upgrade crossfire trt to the GPL version 3 (hopefully correctly).
- add a single file covered by the GNU Affero General Public License
  (which is not yet released, so I used the current draft, which is
  legally a bit wavy, but its likely better than nothing as it expresses
  direct intent by the authors, and we can upgrade as soon as it has been
  released).
  * this should ensure availability of source code for the server at least
    and hopefully also archetypes and maps even when modified versions
    are not being distributed, in accordance of section 13 of the agplv3.

2 GNU AFFERO GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE
3 Discussion Draft 1 of Version 3, 31 May 2007
4
5 THIS IS A DRAFT, NOT A PUBLISHED VERSION OF THE GNU AFFERO GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE.
6
7 Copyright (C) 2007 Free Software Foundation, Inc. (http://fsf.org)
8 51 Franklin Street, Fifth Floor, Boston, MA 02110-1301 USA
9 Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies
10 of this license document, but changing it is not allowed.
11
12 Preamble
13
14 The GNU Affero General Public License is a free, copyleft license
15 for software and other kinds of works, specifically designed to ensure
16 cooperation with the community in the case of network server software.
17
18 The licenses for most software and other practical works are
19 designed to take away your freedom to share and change the works. By
20 contrast, our General Public Licenses are intended to guarantee your
21 freedom to share and change all versions of a program--to make sure it
22 remains free software for all its users.
23
24 When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not
25 price. Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that you
26 have the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge for
27 them if you wish), that you receive source code or can get it if you
28 want it, that you can change the software or use pieces of it in new
29 free programs, and that you know you can do these things.
30
31 Developers that use our General Public Licenses protect your rights
32 with two steps: (1) assert copyright on the software, and (2) offer
33 you this License which gives you legal permission to copy, distribute
34 and/or modify the software.
35
36 A secondary benefit of defending all users' freedom is that
37 improvements made in alternate versions of the program, if they
38 receive widespread use, become available for other developers to
39 incorporate. Many developers of free software are heartened and
40 encouraged by the resulting cooperation. However, in the case of
41 software used on network servers, this result may fail to come about.
42 The GNU General Public License permits making a modified version and
43 letting the public access it on a server without ever releasing its
44 source code to the public.
45
46 The GNU Affero General Public License is designed specifically to
47 ensure that, in such cases, the modified source code becomes available
48 to the community. It requires the operator of a network server to
49 provide the source code of the modified version running there to the
50 users of that server. Therefore, public use of a modified version, on
51 a publicly accessible server, gives the public access to the source
52 code of the modified version.
53
54 The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and
55 modification follow.
56
57 TERMS AND CONDITIONS
58
59 0. Definitions.
60
61 "This License" refers to version 3 of the GNU Affero General Public
62 License.
63
64 "Copyright" also means copyright-like laws that apply to other
65 kinds of works, such as semiconductor masks.
66
67 "The Program" refers to any copyrightable work licensed under this
68 License. Each licensee is addressed as "you." "Licensees" and
69 "recipients" may be individuals or organizations.
70
71 To "modify" a work means to copy from or adapt all or part of the
72 work in a fashion requiring copyright permission, other than the
73 making of an exact copy. The resulting work is called a "modified
74 version" of the earlier work or a work "based on" the earlier work. A
75 "covered work" means either the unmodified Program or a work based on
76 the Program.
77
78 To "propagate" a work means to do anything with it that, without
79 permission, would make you directly or secondarily liable for
80 infringement under applicable copyright law, except executing it on a
81 computer or making modifications that you do not share. Propagation
82 includes copying, distribution (with or without modification), making
83 available to the public, and in some countries other activities as
84 well. To "convey" a work means any kind of propagation that enables
85 other parties to make or receive copies, excluding sublicensing. Mere
86 interaction with a user through a computer network, with no transfer
87 of a copy, is not conveying.
88
89 An interactive user interface displays "Appropriate Legal Notices"
90 to the extent that it includes a convenient and prominently visible
91 feature that (1) displays an appropriate copyright notice, and (2)
92 tells the user that there is no warranty for the work (except to the
93 extent that warranties are provided), that licensees may convey the
94 work under this License, and how to view a copy of this License. If
95 the interface presents a list of user commands or options, such as a
96 menu, a prominent item in the list meets this criterion.
97
98 1. Source Code.
99
100 The "source code" for a work means the preferred form of the work
101 for making modifications to it. "Object code" means any non-source
102 form of a work.
103
104 A "Standard Interface" means an interface that either is an official
105 standard defined by a recognized standards body, or, in the case of
106 interfaces specified for a particular programming language, one that
107 is widely used among developers working in that language.
108
109 The "System Libraries" of an executable work include anything, other
110 than the work as a whole, that (a) is included in the normal form of
111 packaging a Major Component, but which is not part of that Major
112 Component, and (b) serves only to enable use of the work with that
113 Major Component, or to implement a Standard Interface for which an
114 implementation is available to the public in source code form. A
115 "Major Component", in this context, means a major essential component
116 (kernel, window system, and so on) of the specific operating system
117 (if any) on which the executable work runs, or a compiler used to
118 produce the work, or an object code interpreter used to run it.
119
120 The "Corresponding Source" for a work in object code form means all
121 the source code needed to generate, install, and (for an executable
122 work) run the object code and to modify the work, including scripts to
123 control those activities. However, it does not include the work's
124 System Libraries, or general-purpose tools or generally available free
125 programs which are used unmodified in performing those activities but
126 which are not part of the work. For example, Corresponding Source
127 includes interface definition files associated with source files for
128 the work, and the source code for shared libraries and dynamically
129 linked subprograms that the work is specifically designed to require,
130 such as by intimate data communication or control flow between those
131 subprograms and other parts of the work.
132
133 The Corresponding Source need not include anything that users
134 can regenerate automatically from other parts of the Corresponding
135 Source.
136
137 The Corresponding Source for a work in source code form is that
138 same work.
139
140 2. Basic Permissions.
141
142 All rights granted under this License are granted for the term of
143 copyright on the Program, and are irrevocable provided the stated
144 conditions are met. This License explicitly affirms your unlimited
145 permission to run the unmodified Program. The output from running a
146 covered work is covered by this License only if the output, given its
147 content, constitutes a covered work. This License acknowledges your
148 rights of fair use or other equivalent, as provided by copyright law.
149
150 You may make, run and propagate covered works that you do not
151 convey, without conditions so long as your license otherwise remains
152 in force. You may convey covered works to others for the sole purpose
153 of having them make modifications exclusively for you, or provide you
154 with facilities for running those works, provided that you comply with
155 the terms of this License in conveying all material for which you do
156 not hold copyright. Those thus making or running the covered works
157 for you must do so exclusively on your behalf, under your direction
158 and control, on terms that prohibit them from making any copies of
159 your copyrighted material outside their relationship with you.
160
161 Conveying under any other circumstances is permitted solely under
162 the conditions stated below. Sublicensing is not allowed; section 10
163 makes it unnecessary.
164
165 3. Protecting Users' Legal Rights From Anti-Circumvention Law.
166
167 No covered work shall be deemed part of an effective technological
168 measure under any applicable law fulfilling obligations under article
169 11 of the WIPO copyright treaty adopted on 20 December 1996, or
170 similar laws prohibiting or restricting circumvention of such
171 measures.
172
173 When you convey a covered work, you waive any legal power to forbid
174 circumvention of technical measures to the extent such circumvention
175 is effected by exercising rights under this License with respect to
176 the covered work, and you disclaim any intention to limit operation or
177 modification of the work as a means of enforcing, against the work's
178 users, your or third parties' legal rights to forbid circumvention of
179 technical measures.
180
181 4.[1] Conveying Verbatim Copies.
182
183 You may convey verbatim copies of the Program's source code as you
184 receive it, in any medium, provided that you conspicuously and
185 appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate copyright notice;
186 keep intact all notices stating that this License and any
187 non-permissive terms added in accord with section 7 apply to the code;
188 keep intact all notices of the absence of any warranty; and give all
189 recipients a copy of this License along with the Program.
190
191 You may charge any price or no price for each copy that you convey,
192 and you may offer support or warranty protection for a fee.
193
194 5.[2] Conveying Modified Source Versions.
195
196 You may convey a work based on the Program, or the modifications to
197 produce it from the Program, in the form of source code under the
198 terms of section 4 above, provided that you also meet all of these
199 conditions:
200
201 a) The work must carry prominent notices stating that you modified
202 it, and giving a relevant date.
203
204 b) The work must carry prominent notices stating that it is
205 released under this License and any conditions added under section
206 7. This requirement modifies the requirement in section 4 to
207 "keep intact all notices".
208
209 c) You must license the entire work, as a whole, under this
210 License to anyone who comes into possession of a copy. This
211 License will therefore apply, along with any applicable section 7
212 additional terms, to the whole of the work, and all its parts,
213 regardless of how they are packaged. This License gives no
214 permission to license the work in any other way, but it does not
215 invalidate such permission if you have separately received it.
216
217 d) If the work has interactive user interfaces, each must display
218 Appropriate Legal Notices; however, if the Program has interactive
219 interfaces that do not display Appropriate Legal Notices, your
220 work need not make them do so.
221
222 A compilation of a covered work with other separate and independent
223 works, which are not by their nature extensions of the covered work,
224 in or on a volume of a storage or distribution medium, is called an
225 "aggregate" if the compilation and its resulting copyright are not
226 used to limit the access or legal rights of the compilation's users
227 beyond what the individual works permit. Inclusion of a covered work
228 in an aggregate does not cause this License to apply to the other
229 parts of the aggregate.
230
231 6.[3] Conveying Non-Source Forms.
232
233 You may convey a covered work in object code form under the terms
234 of sections 4 and 5, provided that you also convey the
235 machine-readable Corresponding Source under the terms of this License,
236 in one of these ways:
237
238 a) Convey the object code in, or embodied in, a physical product
239 (including a physical distribution medium), accompanied by the
240 Corresponding Source fixed on a durable physical medium
241 customarily used for software interchange.
242
243 b) Convey the object code in, or embodied in, a physical product
244 (including a physical distribution medium), accompanied by a
245 written offer, valid for at least three years and valid for as
246 long as you offer spare parts or customer support for that product
247 model, either (1) to give anyone who possesses the object code a
248 copy of the Corresponding Source for all the software in the
249 product that is covered by this License, on a durable physical
250 medium customarily used for software interchange, for a price no
251 more than your reasonable cost of physically performing this
252 conveying of source, or (2) to provide access to copy the
253 Corresponding Source from a network server at no charge.
254
255 c) Convey individual copies of the object code with a copy of the
256 written offer to provide the Corresponding Source. This
257 alternative is allowed only occasionally and noncommercially, and
258 only if you received the object code with such an offer, in accord
259 with subsection 6b.
260
261 d) Convey the object code by offering access from a designated
262 place (gratis or for a charge), and offer equivalent access to the
263 Corresponding Source in the same way through the same place at no
264 further charge. You need not require recipients to copy the
265 Corresponding Source along with the object code. If the place to
266 copy the object code is a network server, the Corresponding Source
267 may be on a different server (operated by you or a third party)
268 that supports equivalent copying facilities, provided you maintain
269 clear directions next to the object code saying where to find the
270 Corresponding Source. Regardless of what server hosts the
271 Corresponding Source, you remain obligated to ensure that it is
272 available for as long as needed to satisfy these requirements.
273
274 e) Convey the object code using peer-to-peer transmission, provided
275 you inform other peers where the object code and Corresponding
276 Source of the work are being offered to the general public at no
277 charge under subsection 6d.
278
279 A separable portion of the object code, whose source code is excluded
280 from the Corresponding Source as a System Library, need not be
281 included in conveying the object code work.
282
283 A "User Product" is either (1) a "consumer product," which means any
284 tangible personal property which is normally used for personal,
285 family, or household purposes, or (2) anything designed or sold for
286 incorporation into a dwelling. In determining whether a product is a
287 consumer product, doubtful cases shall be resolved in favor of
288 coverage. For a particular product received by a particular user,
289 "normally used" refers to a typical or common use of that class of
290 product, regardless of the status of the particular user or of the way
291 in which the particular user actually uses, or expects or is expected
292 to use, the product. A product is a consumer product regardless of
293 whether the product has substantial commercial, industrial or
294 non-consumer uses, unless such uses represent the only significant
295 mode of use of the product.
296
297 "Installation Information" for a User Product means any methods,
298 procedures, authorization keys, or other information required
299 to install and execute modified versions of a covered work in that User
300 Product from a modified version of its Corresponding Source. The
301 information must suffice to ensure that the continued functioning of
302 the modified object code is in no case prevented or interfered with
303 solely because modification has been made.
304
305 If you convey an object code work under this section in, or with, or
306 specifically for use in, a User Product, and the conveying occurs as
307 part of a transaction in which the right of possession and use of the
308 User Product is transferred to the recipient in perpetuity or for a
309 fixed term (regardless of how the transaction is characterized), the
310 Corresponding Source conveyed under this section must be accompanied
311 by the Installation Information. But this requirement does not apply
312 if neither you nor any third party retains the ability to install
313 modified object code on the User Product (for example, the work has
314 been installed in ROM).
315
316 The requirement to provide Installation Information does not include a
317 requirement to continue to provide support service, warranty, or
318 updates for a work that has been modified or installed by the
319 recipient, or for the User Product in which it has been modified or
320 installed. Network access may be denied when the modification itself
321 materially and adversely affects the operation of the network or
322 violates the rules and protocols for communication across the network.
323
324 Corresponding Source conveyed, and Installation Information provided,
325 in accord with this section must be in a format that is publicly
326 documented (and with an implementation available to the public in
327 source code form), and must require no special password or key for
328 unpacking, reading or copying.
329
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
350 you add to a covered work, you may (if authorized by the copyright
351 holders of that material) supplement the terms of this License with
352 terms:
353
354 a. disclaiming warranty or limiting liability differently from the
355 terms of sections 15 and 16 of this License; or
356
357 b. requiring preservation of specified reasonable legal notices or
358 author attributions in that material or in the Appropriate Legal
359 Notices displayed by works containing it; or
360
361 c. prohibiting misrepresentation of the origin of that material, or
362 requiring that modified versions of such material be marked in
363 reasonable ways as different from the original version; or
364
365 d. limiting the use for publicity purposes of names of licensors or
366 authors of the material; or
367
368 e. declining to grant rights under trademark law for use of some
369 trade names, trademarks, or service marks; or
370
371 f. requiring indemnification of licensors and authors of that
372 material by anyone who conveys the material (or modified versions of
373 it) with contractual assumptions of liability to the recipient, for
374 any liability that these contractual assumptions directly impose on
375 those licensors and authors.
376
377 All other non-permissive additional terms are considered "further
378 restrictions" within the meaning of section 10. If the Program as you
379 received it, or any part of it, purports to be governed by this
380 License, supplemented by a term that is a further restriction, you may
381 remove that term. If a license document contains a further
382 restriction but permits relicensing or conveying under this License,
383 you may add to a covered work material governed by the terms of that
384 license document, provided that the further restriction does not
385 survive such relicensing or conveying.
386
387 If you add terms to a covered work in accord with this section, you
388 must place, in the relevant source files, a statement of the
389 additional terms that apply to those files, or a notice indicating
390 where to find the applicable terms.
391
392 Additional terms, permissive or non-permissive, may be stated in the
393 form of a separately written license, or stated as exceptions;
394 the above requirements apply either way.
395
396 8.[4] Termination.
397
398 You may not propagate or modify a covered work except as expressly
399 provided under this License. Any attempt otherwise to propagate or
400 modify it is void. If you violate this License, any copyright holder
401 of the work may put you on notice by notifying you of the violation,
402 by any reasonable means, provided 60 days have not elapsed since the
403 most recent violation. Having put you on notice, the copyright holder
404 may, at any time, terminate the rights (including any patent rights)
405 that the copyright holder has granted to you under this License.
406
407 However, if this is the first time you have received notice of
408 violation of this License (for any software) with respect to a given
409 copyright holder, and you cure the violation within 30 days following
410 your receipt of the notice, then your license is automatically
411 reinstated.
412
413 In the event that your rights are terminated under this section,
414 parties who have received copies, or rights, from you under this
415 License will not have their licenses terminated so long as they remain
416 in full compliance. Unless and until your rights are restored by the
417 copyright holders, you do not qualify to receive licenses for the
418 same material under section 10.
419
420 9.[5] Acceptance Not Required for Having Copies.
421
422 You are not required to accept this License in order to receive or
423 run a copy of the Program. Ancillary propagation of a covered work
424 occurring solely as a consequence of using peer-to-peer transmission
425 to receive a copy likewise does not require acceptance. However,
426 nothing other than this License grants you permission to propagate or
427 modify any covered work. These actions infringe copyright if you do
428 not accept this License. Therefore, by modifying or propagating a
429 covered work, you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so.
430
431 10.[6] Automatic Licensing of Downstream Recipients.
432
433 Each time you convey a covered work, the recipient automatically
434 receives a license from the original licensors, to run, modify and
435 propagate that work, subject to this License. You are not responsible
436 for enforcing compliance by third parties with this License.
437
438 An "entity transaction" is a transaction transferring control of an
439 organization, or substantially all assets of one, or subdividing an
440 organization, or merging organizations. If propagation of a covered
441 work results from an entity transaction, each party to that
442 transaction who receives a copy of the work also receives whatever
443 licenses to the work the party's predecessor in interest had or could
444 give under the previous paragraph, plus a right to possession of the
445 Corresponding Source of the work from the predecessor in interest, if
446 the predecessor has it or can get it with reasonable efforts.
447
448 You may not impose any further restrictions on the exercise of the
449 rights granted or affirmed under this License. For example, you may
450 not impose a license fee, royalty, or other charge for exercise of
451 rights granted under this License, and you may not initiate litigation
452 (including a cross-claim or counterclaim in a lawsuit) alleging that
453 any patent claim is infringed by making, using, selling, offering for
454 sale, or importing the Program or any portion of it.
455
456 11. Patents.
457
458 A "contributor" is a copyright holder who authorizes use under this
459 License of the Program or a work on which the Program is based. The
460 work thus licensed is called the contributor's "contributor version."
461
462 A contributor's "essential patent claims" are all patent claims
463 owned or controlled by the contributor, whether already acquired or
464 hereafter acquired, that would be infringed by some manner, permitted
465 by this License, of making, using, or selling its contributor version,
466 but do not include claims that would be infringed only as a
467 consequence of further modification of the contributor version. For
468 purposes of this definition, "control" includes the right to grant
469 patent sublicenses in a manner consistent with the requirements of
470 this License.
471
472 Each contributor grants you a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free
473 patent license under the contributor's essential patent claims, to
474 make, use, sell, offer for sale, import and otherwise run, modify and
475 propagate the contents of its contributor version.
476
477 For purposes of the following three paragraphs, a "patent license"
478 is any express agreement or commitment, however denominated, not to
479 enforce a patent, and to "grant" a patent license to a party means to
480 make such an agreement or commitment not to enforce a patent against
481 the party.
482
483 If you convey a covered work, knowingly relying on a patent license,
484 and the Corresponding Source of the work is not available for anyone
485 to copy, free of charge and under the terms of this License, through a
486 publicly available network server or other readily accessible means,
487 then you must either (1) cause the Corresponding Source to be so
488 available, or (2) disclaim the patent license for this particular
489 work, or (3) arrange, in a manner consistent with the requirements of
490 this License, to extend the patent license to downstream
491 recipients. "Knowingly relying" means you have actual knowledge that,
492 but for the patent license, your conveying the covered work in a
493 country, or your recipient's use of the covered work in a country,
494 would infringe one or more identifiable patents in that country that
495 you have reason to believe are valid.
496
497 If, pursuant to or in connection with a single transaction or
498 arrangement, you convey, or propagate by procuring conveyance of, a
499 covered work, and grant a patent license to some of the parties
500 receiving the covered work authorizing them to use, propagate, modify
501 or convey a specific copy of the covered work, then the patent license
502 you grant is automatically extended to all recipients of the covered
503 work and works based on it.
504
505 A patent license is "discriminatory" if it does not include within
506 the scope of its coverage, prohibits the exercise of, or is
507 conditioned on the non-exercise of one or more of the rights that are
508 specifically granted under this License. You may not convey a covered
509 work if you are a party to an arrangement with a third party that is
510 in the business of distributing software, under which you make payment
511 to the third party based on the extent of your activity of conveying
512 the work, and under which the third party grants, to any of the
513 parties who would receive the covered work from you, a discriminatory
514 patent license (a) in connection with copies of the covered work
515 conveyed by you (or copies made from those copies), or (b) primarily
516 for and in connection with specific products or compilations that
517 contain the covered work, unless you entered into that arrangement,
518 or that patent license was granted, prior to 28 March 2007.
519
520 Nothing in this License shall be construed as excluding or limiting
521 any implied license or other defenses to infringement that may
522 otherwise be available to you under applicable patent law.
523
524 12.[7] No Surrender of Others' Freedom.
525
526 If conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or
527 otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not
528 excuse you from the conditions of this License. If you cannot convey the
529 Program, or other covered work, so as to satisfy simultaneously your
530 obligations under this License and any other pertinent obligations, then as
531 a consequence you may not convey it at all. For example, if you agree to terms
532 that obligate you to collect a royalty for further conveying from those to whom
533 you convey the Program, the only way you could satisfy both those terms and
534 this License would be to refrain entirely from conveying the Program.
535
536 13. Remote Network Interaction; Use with the GNU General Public License.
537
538 Notwithstanding any other provision of this License, if you modify
539 the Program, your modified version must give all users interacting
540 with it remotely through a computer network (if your version supports
541 such interaction) an opportunity to receive the Corresponding Source
542 of your version by providing access to copy the Corresponding Source
543 from a network server at no charge.
544
545 Notwithstanding any other provision of this License, you have
546 permission to link any covered work with a work licensed under version
547 3 (or any later version published by the Free Software Foundation) of
548 the GNU General Public License, and to convey the resulting
549 combination. The terms of this License will continue to apply to your
550 covered work but will not apply to the work with which it is linked,
551 which will remain governed by the GNU General Public License.
552
553 14.[9] Revised Versions of this License.
554
555 The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions
556 of the GNU Affero General Public License from time to time. Such new
557 versions will be similar in spirit to the present version, but may
558 differ in detail to address new problems or concerns.
559
560 Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the
561 Program specifies that a certain numbered version of the GNU Affero
562 General Public License "or any later version" applies to it, you have
563 the option of following the terms and conditions either of that
564 numbered version or of any later version published by the Free
565 Software Foundation. If the Program does not specify a version number
566 of the GNU Affero General Public License, you may choose any version
567 ever published by the Free Software Foundation.
568
569 If the Program specifies that a proxy can decide whether future
570 versions of the GNU Affero General Public License shall apply, that
571 proxy's public statement of acceptance of any version is permanent
572 authorization for you to choose that version for the Program.
573
574 Later license versions may grant you additional or different
575 permissions. However, no additional obligations are imposed on any
576 author or copyright holder as a result of your choosing to follow a
577 later version.
578
579 15.[11] Disclaimer of Warranty.
580
581 THERE IS NO WARRANTY FOR THE PROGRAM, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY
582 APPLICABLE LAW. EXCEPT WHEN OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT
583 HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER PARTIES PROVIDE THE PROGRAM "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY
584 OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO,
585 THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR
586 PURPOSE. THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE PROGRAM
587 IS WITH YOU. SHOULD THE PROGRAM PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE COST OF
588 ALL NECESSARY SERVICING, REPAIR OR CORRECTION.
589
590 16.[12] Limitation of Liability.
591
592 IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN WRITING
593 WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MODIFIES AND/OR CONVEYS
594 THE PROGRAM AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES, INCLUDING ANY
595 GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THE
596 USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF
597 DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY YOU OR THIRD
598 PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF THE PROGRAM TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER PROGRAMS),
599 EVEN IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF
600 SUCH DAMAGES.
601
602 17. Interpretation of Sections 15 and 16.
603
604 If the disclaimer of warranty and limitation of liability provided
605 above cannot be given local legal effect according to their terms,
606 reviewing courts shall apply local law that most closely approximates
607 an absolute waiver of all civil liability in connection with the
608 Program, unless a warranty or assumption of liability accompanies a
609 copy of the Program in return for a fee.
610
611 END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS
612
613 How to Apply These Terms to Your New Programs
614
615 If you develop a new program, and you want it to be of the greatest
616 possible use to the public, the best way to achieve this is to make it
617 free software which everyone can redistribute and change under these terms.
618
619 To do so, attach the following notices to the program. It is safest
620 to attach them to the start of each source file to most effectively
621 state the exclusion of warranty; and each file should have at least
622 the "copyright" line and a pointer to where the full notice is found.
623
624 <one line to give the program's name and a brief idea of what it does.>
625 Copyright (C) <year> <name of author>
626
627 This program is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify
628 it under the terms of the GNU Affero General Public License as published by
629 the Free Software Foundation; either version 3 of the License, or
630 (at your option) any later version.
631
632 This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful,
633 but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of
634 MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. See the
635 GNU Affero General Public License for more details.
636
637 You should have received a copy of the GNU Affero General Public License
638 along with this program; if not, see http://www.gnu.org/licenses
639 or write to the Free Software Foundation,Inc., 51 Franklin Street,
640 Fifth Floor, Boston, MA 02110-1301 USA
641
642
643 Also add information on how to contact you by electronic and paper mail.
644
645 If the program does terminal interaction, make it output a short
646 notice like this when it starts in an interactive mode:
647
648 Gnomovision version 69, Copyright (C) year name of author
649 Gnomovision comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY; for details type `show w'.
650 This is free software, and you are welcome to redistribute it
651 under certain conditions; type `show c' for details.
652
653 The hypothetical commands `show w' and `show c' should show the
654 appropriate parts of the GNU Affero General Public License. Of course,
655 the commands you use may be called something other than `show w' and `show
656 c'; for a GUI interface, you would use an "About box" instead.
657
658 You should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer) or your
659 school, if any, to sign a "copyright disclaimer" for the program, if
660 necessary. Here is a sample; alter the names:
661
662 Yoyodyne, Inc., hereby disclaims all copyright interest in the program
663 `Gnomovision' (which makes passes at compilers) written by James Hacker.
