48 GNU AFFERO GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE
49 Version 3, 19 November 2007
50
51 Copyright (C) 2007 Free Software Foundation, Inc. <http://fsf.org/>
52 Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies
53 of this license document, but changing it is not allowed.
54
55 Preamble
56
57 The GNU Affero General Public License is a free, copyleft license
58 for software and other kinds of works, specifically designed to ensure
59 cooperation with the community in the case of network server software.
60
61 The licenses for most software and other practical works are
62 designed to take away your freedom to share and change the works. By
63 contrast, our General Public Licenses are intended to guarantee your
64 freedom to share and change all versions of a program--to make sure it
65 remains free software for all its users.
66
67 When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not
68 price. Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that you
69 have the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge for
70 them if you wish), that you receive source code or can get it if you
71 want it, that you can change the software or use pieces of it in new
72 free programs, and that you know you can do these things.
73
74 Developers that use our General Public Licenses protect your rights
75 with two steps: (1) assert copyright on the software, and (2) offer
76 you this License which gives you legal permission to copy, distribute
77 and/or modify the software.
78
79 A secondary benefit of defending all users' freedom is that
80 improvements made in alternate versions of the program, if they
81 receive widespread use, become available for other developers to
82 incorporate. Many developers of free software are heartened and
83 encouraged by the resulting cooperation. However, in the case of
84 software used on network servers, this result may fail to come about.
85 The GNU General Public License permits making a modified version and
86 letting the public access it on a server without ever releasing its
87 source code to the public.
88
89 The GNU Affero General Public License is designed specifically to
90 ensure that, in such cases, the modified source code becomes available
91 to the community. It requires the operator of a network server to
92 provide the source code of the modified version running there to the
93 users of that server. Therefore, public use of a modified version, on
94 a publicly accessible server, gives the public access to the source
95 code of the modified version.
96
97 An older license, called the Affero General Public License and
98 published by Affero, was designed to accomplish similar goals. This is
99 a different license, not a version of the Affero GPL, but Affero has
100 released a new version of the Affero GPL which permits relicensing under
101 this license.
102
103 The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and
104 modification follow.
105
106 TERMS AND CONDITIONS
107
108 0. Definitions.
109
110 "This License" refers to version 3 of the GNU Affero General Public
111 License.
112
113 "Copyright" also means copyright-like laws that apply to other kinds
114 of works, such as semiconductor masks.
115
116 "The Program" refers to any copyrightable work licensed under this
117 License. Each licensee is addressed as "you". "Licensees" and
118 "recipients" may be individuals or organizations.
119
120 To "modify" a work means to copy from or adapt all or part of the work
121 in a fashion requiring copyright permission, other than the making of an
122 exact copy. The resulting work is called a "modified version" of the
123 earlier work or a work "based on" the earlier work.
124
125 A "covered work" means either the unmodified Program or a work based
126 on the Program.
127
128 To "propagate" a work means to do anything with it that, without
129 permission, would make you directly or secondarily liable for
130 infringement under applicable copyright law, except executing it on a
131 computer or modifying a private copy. Propagation includes copying,
132 distribution (with or without modification), making available to the
133 public, and in some countries other activities as well.
134
135 To "convey" a work means any kind of propagation that enables other
136 parties to make or receive copies. Mere interaction with a user through
137 a computer network, with no transfer of a copy, is not conveying.
138
139 An interactive user interface displays "Appropriate Legal Notices"
140 to the extent that it includes a convenient and prominently visible
141 feature that (1) displays an appropriate copyright notice, and (2)
142 tells the user that there is no warranty for the work (except to the
143 extent that warranties are provided), that licensees may convey the
144 work under this License, and how to view a copy of this License. If
145 the interface presents a list of user commands or options, such as a
146 menu, a prominent item in the list meets this criterion.
147
148 1. Source Code.
149
150 The "source code" for a work means the preferred form of the work
151 for making modifications to it. "Object code" means any non-source
152 form of a work.
153
154 A "Standard Interface" means an interface that either is an official
155 standard defined by a recognized standards body, or, in the case of
156 interfaces specified for a particular programming language, one that
157 is widely used among developers working in that language.
158
159 The "System Libraries" of an executable work include anything, other
160 than the work as a whole, that (a) is included in the normal form of
161 packaging a Major Component, but which is not part of that Major
162 Component, and (b) serves only to enable use of the work with that
163 Major Component, or to implement a Standard Interface for which an
164 implementation is available to the public in source code form. A
165 "Major Component", in this context, means a major essential component
166 (kernel, window system, and so on) of the specific operating system
167 (if any) on which the executable work runs, or a compiler used to
168 produce the work, or an object code interpreter used to run it.
169
170 The "Corresponding Source" for a work in object code form means all
171 the source code needed to generate, install, and (for an executable
172 work) run the object code and to modify the work, including scripts to
173 control those activities. However, it does not include the work's
174 System Libraries, or general-purpose tools or generally available free
175 programs which are used unmodified in performing those activities but
176 which are not part of the work. For example, Corresponding Source
177 includes interface definition files associated with source files for
178 the work, and the source code for shared libraries and dynamically
179 linked subprograms that the work is specifically designed to require,
180 such as by intimate data communication or control flow between those
181 subprograms and other parts of the work.
182
183 The Corresponding Source need not include anything that users
184 can regenerate automatically from other parts of the Corresponding
185 Source.
186
187 The Corresponding Source for a work in source code form is that
188 same work.
189
190 2. Basic Permissions.
191
192 All rights granted under this License are granted for the term of
193 copyright on the Program, and are irrevocable provided the stated
194 conditions are met. This License explicitly affirms your unlimited
195 permission to run the unmodified Program. The output from running a
196 covered work is covered by this License only if the output, given its
197 content, constitutes a covered work. This License acknowledges your
198 rights of fair use or other equivalent, as provided by copyright law.
199
200 You may make, run and propagate covered works that you do not
201 convey, without conditions so long as your license otherwise remains
202 in force. You may convey covered works to others for the sole purpose
203 of having them make modifications exclusively for you, or provide you
204 with facilities for running those works, provided that you comply with
205 the terms of this License in conveying all material for which you do
206 not control copyright. Those thus making or running the covered works
207 for you must do so exclusively on your behalf, under your direction
208 and control, on terms that prohibit them from making any copies of
209 your copyrighted material outside their relationship with you.
210
211 Conveying under any other circumstances is permitted solely under
212 the conditions stated below. Sublicensing is not allowed; section 10
213 makes it unnecessary.
214
215 3. Protecting Users' Legal Rights From Anti-Circumvention Law.
216
217 No covered work shall be deemed part of an effective technological
218 measure under any applicable law fulfilling obligations under article
219 11 of the WIPO copyright treaty adopted on 20 December 1996, or
220 similar laws prohibiting or restricting circumvention of such
221 measures.
222
223 When you convey a covered work, you waive any legal power to forbid
224 circumvention of technological measures to the extent such circumvention
225 is effected by exercising rights under this License with respect to
226 the covered work, and you disclaim any intention to limit operation or
227 modification of the work as a means of enforcing, against the work's
228 users, your or third parties' legal rights to forbid circumvention of
229 technological measures.
230
231 4. Conveying Verbatim Copies.
232
233 You may convey verbatim copies of the Program's source code as you
234 receive it, in any medium, provided that you conspicuously and
235 appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate copyright notice;
236 keep intact all notices stating that this License and any
237 non-permissive terms added in accord with section 7 apply to the code;
238 keep intact all notices of the absence of any warranty; and give all
239 recipients a copy of this License along with the Program.
240
241 You may charge any price or no price for each copy that you convey,
242 and you may offer support or warranty protection for a fee.
243
244 5. Conveying Modified Source Versions.
245
246 You may convey a work based on the Program, or the modifications to
247 produce it from the Program, in the form of source code under the
248 terms of section 4, provided that you also meet all of these conditions:
249
250 a) The work must carry prominent notices stating that you modified
251 it, and giving a relevant date.
252
253 b) The work must carry prominent notices stating that it is
254 released under this License and any conditions added under section
255 7. This requirement modifies the requirement in section 4 to
256 "keep intact all notices".
257
258 c) You must license the entire work, as a whole, under this
259 License to anyone who comes into possession of a copy. This
260 License will therefore apply, along with any applicable section 7
261 additional terms, to the whole of the work, and all its parts,
262 regardless of how they are packaged. This License gives no
263 permission to license the work in any other way, but it does not
264 invalidate such permission if you have separately received it.
265
266 d) If the work has interactive user interfaces, each must display
267 Appropriate Legal Notices; however, if the Program has interactive
268 interfaces that do not display Appropriate Legal Notices, your
269 work need not make them do so.
270
271 A compilation of a covered work with other separate and independent
272 works, which are not by their nature extensions of the covered work,
273 and which are not combined with it such as to form a larger program,
274 in or on a volume of a storage or distribution medium, is called an
275 "aggregate" if the compilation and its resulting copyright are not
276 used to limit the access or legal rights of the compilation's users
277 beyond what the individual works permit. Inclusion of a covered work
278 in an aggregate does not cause this License to apply to the other
279 parts of the aggregate.
280
281 6. Conveying Non-Source Forms.
282
283 You may convey a covered work in object code form under the terms
284 of sections 4 and 5, provided that you also convey the
285 machine-readable Corresponding Source under the terms of this License,
286 in one of these ways:
287
288 a) Convey the object code in, or embodied in, a physical product
289 (including a physical distribution medium), accompanied by the
290 Corresponding Source fixed on a durable physical medium
291 customarily used for software interchange.
292
293 b) Convey the object code in, or embodied in, a physical product
294 (including a physical distribution medium), accompanied by a
295 written offer, valid for at least three years and valid for as
296 long as you offer spare parts or customer support for that product
297 model, to give anyone who possesses the object code either (1) a
298 copy of the Corresponding Source for all the software in the
299 product that is covered by this License, on a durable physical
300 medium customarily used for software interchange, for a price no
301 more than your reasonable cost of physically performing this
302 conveying of source, or (2) access to copy the
303 Corresponding Source from a network server at no charge.
304
305 c) Convey individual copies of the object code with a copy of the
306 written offer to provide the Corresponding Source. This
307 alternative is allowed only occasionally and noncommercially, and
308 only if you received the object code with such an offer, in accord
309 with subsection 6b.
310
311 d) Convey the object code by offering access from a designated
312 place (gratis or for a charge), and offer equivalent access to the
313 Corresponding Source in the same way through the same place at no
314 further charge. You need not require recipients to copy the
315 Corresponding Source along with the object code. If the place to
316 copy the object code is a network server, the Corresponding Source
317 may be on a different server (operated by you or a third party)
318 that supports equivalent copying facilities, provided you maintain
319 clear directions next to the object code saying where to find the
320 Corresponding Source. Regardless of what server hosts the
321 Corresponding Source, you remain obligated to ensure that it is
322 available for as long as needed to satisfy these requirements.
323
324 e) Convey the object code using peer-to-peer transmission, provided
325 you inform other peers where the object code and Corresponding
326 Source of the work are being offered to the general public at no
327 charge under subsection 6d.
328
329 A separable portion of the object code, whose source code is excluded
330 from the Corresponding Source as a System Library, need not be
331 included in conveying the object code work.
332
333 A "User Product" is either (1) a "consumer product", which means any
334 tangible personal property which is normally used for personal, family,
335 or household purposes, or (2) anything designed or sold for incorporation
336 into a dwelling. In determining whether a product is a consumer product,
337 doubtful cases shall be resolved in favor of coverage. For a particular
338 product received by a particular user, "normally used" refers to a
339 typical or common use of that class of product, regardless of the status
340 of the particular user or of the way in which the particular user
341 actually uses, or expects or is expected to use, the product. A product
342 is a consumer product regardless of whether the product has substantial
343 commercial, industrial or non-consumer uses, unless such uses represent
344 the only significant mode of use of the product.
345
346 "Installation Information" for a User Product means any methods,
347 procedures, authorization keys, or other information required to install
348 and execute modified versions of a covered work in that User Product from
349 a modified version of its Corresponding Source. The information must
350 suffice to ensure that the continued functioning of the modified object
351 code is in no case prevented or interfered with solely because
352 modification has been made.
353
354 If you convey an object code work under this section in, or with, or
355 specifically for use in, a User Product, and the conveying occurs as
356 part of a transaction in which the right of possession and use of the
357 User Product is transferred to the recipient in perpetuity or for a
358 fixed term (regardless of how the transaction is characterized), the
359 Corresponding Source conveyed under this section must be accompanied
360 by the Installation Information. But this requirement does not apply
361 if neither you nor any third party retains the ability to install
362 modified object code on the User Product (for example, the work has
363 been installed in ROM).
364
365 The requirement to provide Installation Information does not include a
366 requirement to continue to provide support service, warranty, or updates
367 for a work that has been modified or installed by the recipient, or for
368 the User Product in which it has been modified or installed. Access to a
369 network may be denied when the modification itself materially and
370 adversely affects the operation of the network or violates the rules and
371 protocols for communication across the network.
372
373 Corresponding Source conveyed, and Installation Information provided,
374 in accord with this section must be in a format that is publicly
375 documented (and with an implementation available to the public in
376 source code form), and must require no special password or key for
377 unpacking, reading or copying.
378
379 7. Additional Terms.
380
381 "Additional permissions" are terms that supplement the terms of this
382 License by making exceptions from one or more of its conditions.
383 Additional permissions that are applicable to the entire Program shall
384 be treated as though they were included in this License, to the extent
385 that they are valid under applicable law. If additional permissions
386 apply only to part of the Program, that part may be used separately
387 under those permissions, but the entire Program remains governed by
388 this License without regard to the additional permissions.
389
390 When you convey a copy of a covered work, you may at your option
391 remove any additional permissions from that copy, or from any part of
392 it. (Additional permissions may be written to require their own
393 removal in certain cases when you modify the work.) You may place
394 additional permissions on material, added by you to a covered work,
395 for which you have or can give appropriate copyright permission.
396
397 Notwithstanding any other provision of this License, for material you
398 add to a covered work, you may (if authorized by the copyright holders of
399 that material) supplement the terms of this License with terms:
400
401 a) Disclaiming warranty or limiting liability differently from the
402 terms of sections 15 and 16 of this License; or
403
404 b) Requiring preservation of specified reasonable legal notices or
405 author attributions in that material or in the Appropriate Legal
406 Notices displayed by works containing it; or
407
408 c) Prohibiting misrepresentation of the origin of that material, or
409 requiring that modified versions of such material be marked in
410 reasonable ways as different from the original version; or
411
412 d) Limiting the use for publicity purposes of names of licensors or
413 authors of the material; or
414
415 e) Declining to grant rights under trademark law for use of some
416 trade names, trademarks, or service marks; or
417
418 f) Requiring indemnification of licensors and authors of that
419 material by anyone who conveys the material (or modified versions of
420 it) with contractual assumptions of liability to the recipient, for
421 any liability that these contractual assumptions directly impose on
422 those licensors and authors.
423
424 All other non-permissive additional terms are considered "further
425 restrictions" within the meaning of section 10. If the Program as you
426 received it, or any part of it, contains a notice stating that it is
427 governed by this License along with a term that is a further restriction,
428 you may remove that term. If a license document contains a further
429 restriction but permits relicensing or conveying under this License, you
430 may add to a covered work material governed by the terms of that license
431 document, provided that the further restriction does not survive such
432 relicensing or conveying.
433
434 If you add terms to a covered work in accord with this section, you
435 must place, in the relevant source files, a statement of the
436 additional terms that apply to those files, or a notice indicating
437 where to find the applicable terms.
438
439 Additional terms, permissive or non-permissive, may be stated in the
440 form of a separately written license, or stated as exceptions;
441 the above requirements apply either way.
442
443 8. Termination.
444
445 You may not propagate or modify a covered work except as expressly
446 provided under this License. Any attempt otherwise to propagate or
447 modify it is void, and will automatically terminate your rights under
448 this License (including any patent licenses granted under the third
449 paragraph of section 11).
450
451 However, if you cease all violation of this License, then your
452 license from a particular copyright holder is reinstated (a)
453 provisionally, unless and until the copyright holder explicitly and
454 finally terminates your license, and (b) permanently, if the copyright
455 holder fails to notify you of the violation by some reasonable means
456 prior to 60 days after the cessation.
457
458 Moreover, your license from a particular copyright holder is
459 reinstated permanently if the copyright holder notifies you of the
460 violation by some reasonable means, this is the first time you have
461 received notice of violation of this License (for any work) from that
462 copyright holder, and you cure the violation prior to 30 days after
463 your receipt of the notice.
464
465 Termination of your rights under this section does not terminate the
466 licenses of parties who have received copies or rights from you under
467 this License. If your rights have been terminated and not permanently
468 reinstated, you do not qualify to receive new licenses for the same
469 material under section 10.
470
471 9. Acceptance Not Required for Having Copies.
472
473 You are not required to accept this License in order to receive or
474 run a copy of the Program. Ancillary propagation of a covered work
475 occurring solely as a consequence of using peer-to-peer transmission
476 to receive a copy likewise does not require acceptance. However,
477 nothing other than this License grants you permission to propagate or
478 modify any covered work. These actions infringe copyright if you do
479 not accept this License. Therefore, by modifying or propagating a
480 covered work, you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so.
481
482 10. Automatic Licensing of Downstream Recipients.
483
484 Each time you convey a covered work, the recipient automatically
485 receives a license from the original licensors, to run, modify and
486 propagate that work, subject to this License. You are not responsible
487 for enforcing compliance by third parties with this License.
488
489 An "entity transaction" is a transaction transferring control of an
490 organization, or substantially all assets of one, or subdividing an
491 organization, or merging organizations. If propagation of a covered
492 work results from an entity transaction, each party to that
493 transaction who receives a copy of the work also receives whatever
494 licenses to the work the party's predecessor in interest had or could
495 give under the previous paragraph, plus a right to possession of the
496 Corresponding Source of the work from the predecessor in interest, if
497 the predecessor has it or can get it with reasonable efforts.
498
499 You may not impose any further restrictions on the exercise of the
500 rights granted or affirmed under this License. For example, you may
501 not impose a license fee, royalty, or other charge for exercise of
502 rights granted under this License, and you may not initiate litigation
503 (including a cross-claim or counterclaim in a lawsuit) alleging that
504 any patent claim is infringed by making, using, selling, offering for
505 sale, or importing the Program or any portion of it.
506
507 11. Patents.
508
509 A "contributor" is a copyright holder who authorizes use under this
510 License of the Program or a work on which the Program is based. The
511 work thus licensed is called the contributor's "contributor version".
512
513 A contributor's "essential patent claims" are all patent claims
514 owned or controlled by the contributor, whether already acquired or
515 hereafter acquired, that would be infringed by some manner, permitted
516 by this License, of making, using, or selling its contributor version,
517 but do not include claims that would be infringed only as a
518 consequence of further modification of the contributor version. For
519 purposes of this definition, "control" includes the right to grant
520 patent sublicenses in a manner consistent with the requirements of
521 this License.
522
523 Each contributor grants you a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free
524 patent license under the contributor's essential patent claims, to
525 make, use, sell, offer for sale, import and otherwise run, modify and
526 propagate the contents of its contributor version.
527
528 In the following three paragraphs, a "patent license" is any express
529 agreement or commitment, however denominated, not to enforce a patent
530 (such as an express permission to practice a patent or covenant not to
531 sue for patent infringement). To "grant" such a patent license to a
532 party means to make such an agreement or commitment not to enforce a
533 patent against the party.
534
535 If you convey a covered work, knowingly relying on a patent license,
536 and the Corresponding Source of the work is not available for anyone
537 to copy, free of charge and under the terms of this License, through a
538 publicly available network server or other readily accessible means,
539 then you must either (1) cause the Corresponding Source to be so
540 available, or (2) arrange to deprive yourself of the benefit of the
541 patent license for this particular work, or (3) arrange, in a manner
542 consistent with the requirements of this License, to extend the patent
543 license to downstream recipients. "Knowingly relying" means you have
544 actual knowledge that, but for the patent license, your conveying the
545 covered work in a country, or your recipient's use of the covered work
546 in a country, would infringe one or more identifiable patents in that
547 country that you have reason to believe are valid.
548
549 If, pursuant to or in connection with a single transaction or
550 arrangement, you convey, or propagate by procuring conveyance of, a
551 covered work, and grant a patent license to some of the parties
552 receiving the covered work authorizing them to use, propagate, modify
553 or convey a specific copy of the covered work, then the patent license
554 you grant is automatically extended to all recipients of the covered
555 work and works based on it.
556
557 A patent license is "discriminatory" if it does not include within
558 the scope of its coverage, prohibits the exercise of, or is
559 conditioned on the non-exercise of one or more of the rights that are
560 specifically granted under this License. You may not convey a covered
561 work if you are a party to an arrangement with a third party that is
562 in the business of distributing software, under which you make payment
563 to the third party based on the extent of your activity of conveying
564 the work, and under which the third party grants, to any of the
565 parties who would receive the covered work from you, a discriminatory
566 patent license (a) in connection with copies of the covered work
567 conveyed by you (or copies made from those copies), or (b) primarily
568 for and in connection with specific products or compilations that
569 contain the covered work, unless you entered into that arrangement,
570 or that patent license was granted, prior to 28 March 2007.
571
572 Nothing in this License shall be construed as excluding or limiting
573 any implied license or other defenses to infringement that may
574 otherwise be available to you under applicable patent law.
575
576 12. No Surrender of Others' Freedom.
577
578 If conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or
579 otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not
580 excuse you from the conditions of this License. If you cannot convey a
581 covered work so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this
582 License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you may
583 not convey it at all. For example, if you agree to terms that obligate you
584 to collect a royalty for further conveying from those to whom you convey
585 the Program, the only way you could satisfy both those terms and this
586 License would be to refrain entirely from conveying the Program.
587
588 13. Remote Network Interaction; Use with the GNU General Public License.
589
590 Notwithstanding any other provision of this License, if you modify the
591 Program, your modified version must prominently offer all users
592 interacting with it remotely through a computer network (if your version
593 supports such interaction) an opportunity to receive the Corresponding
594 Source of your version by providing access to the Corresponding Source
595 from a network server at no charge, through some standard or customary
596 means of facilitating copying of software. This Corresponding Source
597 shall include the Corresponding Source for any work covered by version 3
598 of the GNU General Public License that is incorporated pursuant to the
599 following paragraph.
600
601 Notwithstanding any other provision of this License, you have permission
602 to link or combine any covered work with a work licensed under version 3
603 of the GNU General Public License into a single combined work, and to
604 convey the resulting work. The terms of this License will continue to
605 apply to the part which is the covered work, but the work with which it is
606 combined will remain governed by version 3 of the GNU General Public
607 License.
608
609 14. Revised Versions of this License.
610
611 The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions of
612 the GNU Affero General Public License from time to time. Such new
613 versions will be similar in spirit to the present version, but may differ
614 in detail to address new problems or concerns.
615
616 Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the
617 Program specifies that a certain numbered version of the GNU Affero
618 General Public License "or any later version" applies to it, you have
619 the option of following the terms and conditions either of that
620 numbered version or of any later version published by the Free
621 Software Foundation. If the Program does not specify a version number
622 of the GNU Affero General Public License, you may choose any version
623 ever published by the Free Software Foundation.
624
625 If the Program specifies that a proxy can decide which future
626 versions of the GNU Affero General Public License can be used, that
627 proxy's public statement of acceptance of a version permanently
628 authorizes you to choose that version for the Program.
629
630 Later license versions may give you additional or different
631 permissions. However, no additional obligations are imposed on any
632 author or copyright holder as a result of your choosing to follow a
633 later version.
634
635 15. Disclaimer of Warranty.
636
637 THERE IS NO WARRANTY FOR THE PROGRAM, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY
638 APPLICABLE LAW. EXCEPT WHEN OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT
639 HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER PARTIES PROVIDE THE PROGRAM "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY
640 OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO,
641 THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR
642 PURPOSE. THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE PROGRAM
643 IS WITH YOU. SHOULD THE PROGRAM PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE COST OF
644 ALL NECESSARY SERVICING, REPAIR OR CORRECTION.
645
646 16. Limitation of Liability.
647
648 IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN WRITING
649 WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MODIFIES AND/OR CONVEYS
650 THE PROGRAM AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES, INCLUDING ANY
651 GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THE
652 USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF
653 DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY YOU OR THIRD
654 PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF THE PROGRAM TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER PROGRAMS),
655 EVEN IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF
656 SUCH DAMAGES.
657
658 17. Interpretation of Sections 15 and 16.
659
660 If the disclaimer of warranty and limitation of liability provided
661 above cannot be given local legal effect according to their terms,
662 reviewing courts shall apply local law that most closely approximates
663 an absolute waiver of all civil liability in connection with the
664 Program, unless a warranty or assumption of liability accompanies a
665 copy of the Program in return for a fee.
666
667 END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS
668
669 How to Apply These Terms to Your New Programs
670
671 If you develop a new program, and you want it to be of the greatest
672 possible use to the public, the best way to achieve this is to make it
673 free software which everyone can redistribute and change under these terms.
674
675 To do so, attach the following notices to the program. It is safest
676 to attach them to the start of each source file to most effectively
677 state the exclusion of warranty; and each file should have at least
678 the "copyright" line and a pointer to where the full notice is found.
679
680 <one line to give the program's name and a brief idea of what it does.>
681 Copyright (C) <year> <name of author>
682
683 This program is free software: you can redistribute it and/or modify
684 it under the terms of the GNU Affero General Public License as
685 published by the Free Software Foundation, either version 3 of the
686 License, or (at your option) any later version.
687
688 This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful,
689 but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of
690 MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. See the
691 GNU Affero General Public License for more details.
692
693 You should have received a copy of the GNU Affero General Public License
694 along with this program. If not, see <http://www.gnu.org/licenses/>.
695
696 Also add information on how to contact you by electronic and paper mail.
697
698 If your software can interact with users remotely through a computer
699 network, you should also make sure that it provides a way for users to
700 get its source. For example, if your program is a web application, its
701 interface could display a "Source" link that leads users to an archive
702 of the code. There are many ways you could offer source, and different
703 solutions will be better for different programs; see section 13 for the
704 specific requirements.
705
706 You should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer) or school,
707 if any, to sign a "copyright disclaimer" for the program, if necessary.
