39 We protect your rights with two steps: (1) copyright the software, and 50 Developers that use the GNU GPL protect your rights with two steps:

48authors' reputations.
49 59
60 Some devices are designed to deny users access to install or run
61modified versions of the software inside them, although the manufacturer
62can do so. This is fundamentally incompatible with the aim of
63protecting users' freedom to change the software. The systematic
64pattern of such abuse occurs in the area of products for individuals to
65use, which is precisely where it is most unacceptable. Therefore, we
66have designed this version of the GPL to prohibit the practice for those
67products. If such problems arise substantially in other domains, we
68stand ready to extend this provision to those domains in future versions
69of the GPL, as needed to protect the freedom of users.

59 GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE
60 TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION
61 80
62 0. This License applies to any program or other work which contains 81 TERMS AND CONDITIONS
63a notice placed by the copyright holder saying it may be distributed
64under the terms of this General Public License. The "Program", below,
65refers to any such program or work, and a "work based on the Program"
66means either the Program or any derivative work under copyright law:
67that is to say, a work containing the Program or a portion of it,
68either verbatim or with modifications and/or translated into another
69language. (Hereinafter, translation is included without limitation in
70the term "modification".) Each licensee is addressed as "you".
71 82
72Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are not 83 0. Definitions.
73covered by this License; they are outside its scope. The act of
74running the Program is not restricted, and the output from the Program
75is covered only if its contents constitute a work based on the
76Program (independent of having been made by running the Program).
77Whether that is true depends on what the Program does.
78 84
79 1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Program's 85 "This License" refers to version 3 of the GNU General Public License.
80source code as you receive it, in any medium, provided that you 86
81conspicuously and appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate 87 "Copyright" also means copyright-like laws that apply to other kinds of
82copyright notice and disclaimer of warranty; keep intact all the 88works, such as semiconductor masks.
83notices that refer to this License and to the absence of any warranty; 89
84and give any other recipients of the Program a copy of this License 90 "The Program" refers to any copyrightable work licensed under this
91License. Each licensee is addressed as "you". "Licensees" and
92"recipients" may be individuals or organizations.
93
94 To "modify" a work means to copy from or adapt all or part of the work
95in a fashion requiring copyright permission, other than the making of an
96exact copy. The resulting work is called a "modified version" of the
97earlier work or a work "based on" the earlier work.
98
99 A "covered work" means either the unmodified Program or a work based
85along with the Program. 100on the Program.
86 101
87You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy, and 102 To "propagate" a work means to do anything with it that, without
88you may at your option offer warranty protection in exchange for a fee. 103permission, would make you directly or secondarily liable for
104infringement under applicable copyright law, except executing it on a
105computer or modifying a private copy. Propagation includes copying,
106distribution (with or without modification), making available to the
107public, and in some countries other activities as well.
89 108
90 2. You may modify your copy or copies of the Program or any portion 109 To "convey" a work means any kind of propagation that enables other
91of it, thus forming a work based on the Program, and copy and 110parties to make or receive copies. Mere interaction with a user through
92distribute such modifications or work under the terms of Section 1 111a computer network, with no transfer of a copy, is not conveying.
93above, provided that you also meet all of these conditions:
94 112
95 a) You must cause the modified files to carry prominent notices 113 An interactive user interface displays "Appropriate Legal Notices"
96 stating that you changed the files and the date of any change. 114to the extent that it includes a convenient and prominently visible
115feature that (1) displays an appropriate copyright notice, and (2)
116tells the user that there is no warranty for the work (except to the
117extent that warranties are provided), that licensees may convey the
118work under this License, and how to view a copy of this License. If
119the interface presents a list of user commands or options, such as a
120menu, a prominent item in the list meets this criterion.
97 121
98 b) You must cause any work that you distribute or publish, that in 122 1. Source Code.
99 whole or in part contains or is derived from the Program or any
100 part thereof, to be licensed as a whole at no charge to all third
101 parties under the terms of this License.
102 123
103 c) If the modified program normally reads commands interactively
104 when run, you must cause it, when started running for such
105 interactive use in the most ordinary way, to print or display an
106 announcement including an appropriate copyright notice and a
107 notice that there is no warranty (or else, saying that you provide
108 a warranty) and that users may redistribute the program under
109 these conditions, and telling the user how to view a copy of this
110 License. (Exception: if the Program itself is interactive but
111 does not normally print such an announcement, your work based on
112 the Program is not required to print an announcement.)
113
114These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole. If
115identifiable sections of that work are not derived from the Program,
116and can be reasonably considered independent and separate works in
117themselves, then this License, and its terms, do not apply to those
118sections when you distribute them as separate works. But when you
119distribute the same sections as part of a whole which is a work based
120on the Program, the distribution of the whole must be on the terms of
121this License, whose permissions for other licensees extend to the
122entire whole, and thus to each and every part regardless of who wrote it.
123
124Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest
125your rights to work written entirely by you; rather, the intent is to
126exercise the right to control the distribution of derivative or
127collective works based on the Program.
128
129In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the Program
130with the Program (or with a work based on the Program) on a volume of
131a storage or distribution medium does not bring the other work under
132the scope of this License.
133
134 3. You may copy and distribute the Program (or a work based on it,
135under Section 2) in object code or executable form under the terms of
136Sections 1 and 2 above provided that you also do one of the following:
137
138 a) Accompany it with the complete corresponding machine-readable
139 source code, which must be distributed under the terms of Sections
140 1 and 2 above on a medium customarily used for software interchange; or,
141
142 b) Accompany it with a written offer, valid for at least three
143 years, to give any third party, for a charge no more than your
144 cost of physically performing source distribution, a complete
145 machine-readable copy of the corresponding source code, to be
146 distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium
147 customarily used for software interchange; or,
148
149 c) Accompany it with the information you received as to the offer
150 to distribute corresponding source code. (This alternative is
151 allowed only for noncommercial distribution and only if you
152 received the program in object code or executable form with such
153 an offer, in accord with Subsection b above.)
154
155The source code for a work means the preferred form of the work for 124 The "source code" for a work means the preferred form of the work
156making modifications to it. For an executable work, complete source 125for making modifications to it. "Object code" means any non-source
157code means all the source code for all modules it contains, plus any 126form of a work.
158associated interface definition files, plus the scripts used to
159control compilation and installation of the executable. However, as a
160special exception, the source code distributed need not include
161anything that is normally distributed (in either source or binary
162form) with the major components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of the
163operating system on which the executable runs, unless that component
164itself accompanies the executable.
165 127
166If distribution of executable or object code is made by offering 128 A "Standard Interface" means an interface that either is an official
167access to copy from a designated place, then offering equivalent 129standard defined by a recognized standards body, or, in the case of
168access to copy the source code from the same place counts as 130interfaces specified for a particular programming language, one that
169distribution of the source code, even though third parties are not 131is widely used among developers working in that language.
170compelled to copy the source along with the object code. 132
171 133 The "System Libraries" of an executable work include anything, other
172 4. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the Program 134than the work as a whole, that (a) is included in the normal form of
173except as expressly provided under this License. Any attempt 135packaging a Major Component, but which is not part of that Major
174otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense or distribute the Program is 136Component, and (b) serves only to enable use of the work with that
137Major Component, or to implement a Standard Interface for which an
138implementation is available to the public in source code form. A
139"Major Component", in this context, means a major essential component
140(kernel, window system, and so on) of the specific operating system
141(if any) on which the executable work runs, or a compiler used to
142produce the work, or an object code interpreter used to run it.
143
144 The "Corresponding Source" for a work in object code form means all
145the source code needed to generate, install, and (for an executable
146work) run the object code and to modify the work, including scripts to
147control those activities. However, it does not include the work's
148System Libraries, or general-purpose tools or generally available free
149programs which are used unmodified in performing those activities but
150which are not part of the work. For example, Corresponding Source
151includes interface definition files associated with source files for
152the work, and the source code for shared libraries and dynamically
153linked subprograms that the work is specifically designed to require,
154such as by intimate data communication or control flow between those
155subprograms and other parts of the work.
156
157 The Corresponding Source need not include anything that users
158can regenerate automatically from other parts of the Corresponding
159Source.
160
161 The Corresponding Source for a work in source code form is that
162same work.
163
164 2. Basic Permissions.
165
166 All rights granted under this License are granted for the term of
167copyright on the Program, and are irrevocable provided the stated
168conditions are met. This License explicitly affirms your unlimited
169permission to run the unmodified Program. The output from running a
170covered work is covered by this License only if the output, given its
171content, constitutes a covered work. This License acknowledges your
172rights of fair use or other equivalent, as provided by copyright law.
173
174 You may make, run and propagate covered works that you do not
175convey, without conditions so long as your license otherwise remains
176in force. You may convey covered works to others for the sole purpose
177of having them make modifications exclusively for you, or provide you
178with facilities for running those works, provided that you comply with
179the terms of this License in conveying all material for which you do
180not control copyright. Those thus making or running the covered works
181for you must do so exclusively on your behalf, under your direction
182and control, on terms that prohibit them from making any copies of
183your copyrighted material outside their relationship with you.
184
185 Conveying under any other circumstances is permitted solely under
186the conditions stated below. Sublicensing is not allowed; section 10
187makes it unnecessary.
188
189 3. Protecting Users' Legal Rights From Anti-Circumvention Law.
190
191 No covered work shall be deemed part of an effective technological
192measure under any applicable law fulfilling obligations under article
19311 of the WIPO copyright treaty adopted on 20 December 1996, or
194similar laws prohibiting or restricting circumvention of such
195measures.
196
197 When you convey a covered work, you waive any legal power to forbid
198circumvention of technological measures to the extent such circumvention
199is effected by exercising rights under this License with respect to
200the covered work, and you disclaim any intention to limit operation or
201modification of the work as a means of enforcing, against the work's
202users, your or third parties' legal rights to forbid circumvention of
203technological measures.
204
205 4. Conveying Verbatim Copies.
206
207 You may convey verbatim copies of the Program's source code as you
208receive it, in any medium, provided that you conspicuously and
209appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate copyright notice;
210keep intact all notices stating that this License and any
211non-permissive terms added in accord with section 7 apply to the code;
212keep intact all notices of the absence of any warranty; and give all
213recipients a copy of this License along with the Program.
214
215 You may charge any price or no price for each copy that you convey,
216and you may offer support or warranty protection for a fee.
217
218 5. Conveying Modified Source Versions.
219
220 You may convey a work based on the Program, or the modifications to
221produce it from the Program, in the form of source code under the
222terms of section 4, provided that you also meet all of these conditions:
223
224 a) The work must carry prominent notices stating that you modified
225 it, and giving a relevant date.
226
227 b) The work must carry prominent notices stating that it is
228 released under this License and any conditions added under section
229 7. This requirement modifies the requirement in section 4 to
230 "keep intact all notices".
231
232 c) You must license the entire work, as a whole, under this
233 License to anyone who comes into possession of a copy. This
234 License will therefore apply, along with any applicable section 7
235 additional terms, to the whole of the work, and all its parts,
236 regardless of how they are packaged. This License gives no
237 permission to license the work in any other way, but it does not
238 invalidate such permission if you have separately received it.
239
240 d) If the work has interactive user interfaces, each must display
241 Appropriate Legal Notices; however, if the Program has interactive
242 interfaces that do not display Appropriate Legal Notices, your
243 work need not make them do so.
244
245 A compilation of a covered work with other separate and independent
246works, which are not by their nature extensions of the covered work,
247and which are not combined with it such as to form a larger program,
248in or on a volume of a storage or distribution medium, is called an
249"aggregate" if the compilation and its resulting copyright are not
250used to limit the access or legal rights of the compilation's users
251beyond what the individual works permit. Inclusion of a covered work
252in an aggregate does not cause this License to apply to the other
253parts of the aggregate.
254
255 6. Conveying Non-Source Forms.
256
257 You may convey a covered work in object code form under the terms
258of sections 4 and 5, provided that you also convey the
259machine-readable Corresponding Source under the terms of this License,
260in one of these ways:
261
262 a) Convey the object code in, or embodied in, a physical product
263 (including a physical distribution medium), accompanied by the
264 Corresponding Source fixed on a durable physical medium
265 customarily used for software interchange.
266
267 b) Convey the object code in, or embodied in, a physical product
268 (including a physical distribution medium), accompanied by a
269 written offer, valid for at least three years and valid for as
270 long as you offer spare parts or customer support for that product
271 model, to give anyone who possesses the object code either (1) a
272 copy of the Corresponding Source for all the software in the
273 product that is covered by this License, on a durable physical
274 medium customarily used for software interchange, for a price no
275 more than your reasonable cost of physically performing this
276 conveying of source, or (2) access to copy the
277 Corresponding Source from a network server at no charge.
278
279 c) Convey individual copies of the object code with a copy of the
280 written offer to provide the Corresponding Source. This
281 alternative is allowed only occasionally and noncommercially, and
282 only if you received the object code with such an offer, in accord
283 with subsection 6b.
284
285 d) Convey the object code by offering access from a designated
286 place (gratis or for a charge), and offer equivalent access to the
287 Corresponding Source in the same way through the same place at no
288 further charge. You need not require recipients to copy the
289 Corresponding Source along with the object code. If the place to
290 copy the object code is a network server, the Corresponding Source
291 may be on a different server (operated by you or a third party)
292 that supports equivalent copying facilities, provided you maintain
293 clear directions next to the object code saying where to find the
294 Corresponding Source. Regardless of what server hosts the
295 Corresponding Source, you remain obligated to ensure that it is
296 available for as long as needed to satisfy these requirements.
297
298 e) Convey the object code using peer-to-peer transmission, provided
299 you inform other peers where the object code and Corresponding
300 Source of the work are being offered to the general public at no
301 charge under subsection 6d.
302
303 A separable portion of the object code, whose source code is excluded
304from the Corresponding Source as a System Library, need not be
305included in conveying the object code work.
306
307 A "User Product" is either (1) a "consumer product", which means any
308tangible personal property which is normally used for personal, family,
309or household purposes, or (2) anything designed or sold for incorporation
310into a dwelling. In determining whether a product is a consumer product,
311doubtful cases shall be resolved in favor of coverage. For a particular
312product received by a particular user, "normally used" refers to a
313typical or common use of that class of product, regardless of the status
314of the particular user or of the way in which the particular user
315actually uses, or expects or is expected to use, the product. A product
316is a consumer product regardless of whether the product has substantial
317commercial, industrial or non-consumer uses, unless such uses represent
318the only significant mode of use of the product.
319
320 "Installation Information" for a User Product means any methods,
321procedures, authorization keys, or other information required to install
322and execute modified versions of a covered work in that User Product from
323a modified version of its Corresponding Source. The information must
324suffice to ensure that the continued functioning of the modified object
325code is in no case prevented or interfered with solely because
326modification has been made.
327
328 If you convey an object code work under this section in, or with, or
329specifically for use in, a User Product, and the conveying occurs as
330part of a transaction in which the right of possession and use of the
331User Product is transferred to the recipient in perpetuity or for a
332fixed term (regardless of how the transaction is characterized), the
333Corresponding Source conveyed under this section must be accompanied
334by the Installation Information. But this requirement does not apply
335if neither you nor any third party retains the ability to install
336modified object code on the User Product (for example, the work has
337been installed in ROM).
338
339 The requirement to provide Installation Information does not include a
340requirement to continue to provide support service, warranty, or updates
341for a work that has been modified or installed by the recipient, or for
342the User Product in which it has been modified or installed. Access to a
343network may be denied when the modification itself materially and
344adversely affects the operation of the network or violates the rules and
345protocols for communication across the network.
346
347 Corresponding Source conveyed, and Installation Information provided,
348in accord with this section must be in a format that is publicly
349documented (and with an implementation available to the public in
350source code form), and must require no special password or key for
351unpacking, reading or copying.
352
353 7. Additional Terms.
354
355 "Additional permissions" are terms that supplement the terms of this
356License by making exceptions from one or more of its conditions.
357Additional permissions that are applicable to the entire Program shall
358be treated as though they were included in this License, to the extent
359that they are valid under applicable law. If additional permissions
360apply only to part of the Program, that part may be used separately
361under those permissions, but the entire Program remains governed by
362this License without regard to the additional permissions.
363
364 When you convey a copy of a covered work, you may at your option
365remove any additional permissions from that copy, or from any part of
366it. (Additional permissions may be written to require their own
367removal in certain cases when you modify the work.) You may place
368additional permissions on material, added by you to a covered work,
369for which you have or can give appropriate copyright permission.
370
371 Notwithstanding any other provision of this License, for material you
372add to a covered work, you may (if authorized by the copyright holders of
373that material) supplement the terms of this License with terms:
374
375 a) Disclaiming warranty or limiting liability differently from the
376 terms of sections 15 and 16 of this License; or
377
378 b) Requiring preservation of specified reasonable legal notices or
379 author attributions in that material or in the Appropriate Legal
380 Notices displayed by works containing it; or
381
382 c) Prohibiting misrepresentation of the origin of that material, or
383 requiring that modified versions of such material be marked in
384 reasonable ways as different from the original version; or
385
386 d) Limiting the use for publicity purposes of names of licensors or
387 authors of the material; or
388
389 e) Declining to grant rights under trademark law for use of some
390 trade names, trademarks, or service marks; or
391
392 f) Requiring indemnification of licensors and authors of that
393 material by anyone who conveys the material (or modified versions of
394 it) with contractual assumptions of liability to the recipient, for
395 any liability that these contractual assumptions directly impose on
396 those licensors and authors.
397
398 All other non-permissive additional terms are considered "further
399restrictions" within the meaning of section 10. If the Program as you
400received it, or any part of it, contains a notice stating that it is
401governed by this License along with a term that is a further
402restriction, you may remove that term. If a license document contains
403a further restriction but permits relicensing or conveying under this
404License, you may add to a covered work material governed by the terms
405of that license document, provided that the further restriction does
406not survive such relicensing or conveying.
407
408 If you add terms to a covered work in accord with this section, you
409must place, in the relevant source files, a statement of the
410additional terms that apply to those files, or a notice indicating
411where to find the applicable terms.
412
413 Additional terms, permissive or non-permissive, may be stated in the
414form of a separately written license, or stated as exceptions;
415the above requirements apply either way.
416
417 8. Termination.
418
419 You may not propagate or modify a covered work except as expressly
420provided under this License. Any attempt otherwise to propagate or
175void, and will automatically terminate your rights under this License. 421modify it is void, and will automatically terminate your rights under
422this License (including any patent licenses granted under the third
423paragraph of section 11).
424
425 However, if you cease all violation of this License, then your
426license from a particular copyright holder is reinstated (a)
427provisionally, unless and until the copyright holder explicitly and
428finally terminates your license, and (b) permanently, if the copyright
429holder fails to notify you of the violation by some reasonable means
430prior to 60 days after the cessation.
431
432 Moreover, your license from a particular copyright holder is
433reinstated permanently if the copyright holder notifies you of the
434violation by some reasonable means, this is the first time you have
435received notice of violation of this License (for any work) from that
436copyright holder, and you cure the violation prior to 30 days after
437your receipt of the notice.
438
439 Termination of your rights under this section does not terminate the
176However, parties who have received copies, or rights, from you under 440licenses of parties who have received copies or rights from you under
177this License will not have their licenses terminated so long as such 441this License. If your rights have been terminated and not permanently
178parties remain in full compliance. 442reinstated, you do not qualify to receive new licenses for the same
443material under section 10.
179 444
445 9. Acceptance Not Required for Having Copies.
446
180 5. You are not required to accept this License, since you have not 447 You are not required to accept this License in order to receive or
181signed it. However, nothing else grants you permission to modify or 448run a copy of the Program. Ancillary propagation of a covered work
182distribute the Program or its derivative works. These actions are 449occurring solely as a consequence of using peer-to-peer transmission
183prohibited by law if you do not accept this License. Therefore, by 450to receive a copy likewise does not require acceptance. However,
184modifying or distributing the Program (or any work based on the 451nothing other than this License grants you permission to propagate or
452modify any covered work. These actions infringe copyright if you do
453not accept this License. Therefore, by modifying or propagating a
185Program), you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so, and 454covered work, you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so.
186all its terms and conditions for copying, distributing or modifying
187the Program or works based on it.
188 455
189 6. Each time you redistribute the Program (or any work based on the 456 10. Automatic Licensing of Downstream Recipients.
190Program), the recipient automatically receives a license from the 457
191original licensor to copy, distribute or modify the Program subject to 458 Each time you convey a covered work, the recipient automatically
192these terms and conditions. You may not impose any further 459receives a license from the original licensors, to run, modify and
193restrictions on the recipients' exercise of the rights granted herein. 460propagate that work, subject to this License. You are not responsible
194You are not responsible for enforcing compliance by third parties to 461for enforcing compliance by third parties with this License.
462
463 An "entity transaction" is a transaction transferring control of an
464organization, or substantially all assets of one, or subdividing an
465organization, or merging organizations. If propagation of a covered
466work results from an entity transaction, each party to that
467transaction who receives a copy of the work also receives whatever
468licenses to the work the party's predecessor in interest had or could
469give under the previous paragraph, plus a right to possession of the
470Corresponding Source of the work from the predecessor in interest, if
471the predecessor has it or can get it with reasonable efforts.
472
473 You may not impose any further restrictions on the exercise of the
474rights granted or affirmed under this License. For example, you may
475not impose a license fee, royalty, or other charge for exercise of
476rights granted under this License, and you may not initiate litigation
477(including a cross-claim or counterclaim in a lawsuit) alleging that
478any patent claim is infringed by making, using, selling, offering for
479sale, or importing the Program or any portion of it.
480
481 11. Patents.
482
483 A "contributor" is a copyright holder who authorizes use under this
484License of the Program or a work on which the Program is based. The
485work thus licensed is called the contributor's "contributor version".
486
487 A contributor's "essential patent claims" are all patent claims
488owned or controlled by the contributor, whether already acquired or
489hereafter acquired, that would be infringed by some manner, permitted
490by this License, of making, using, or selling its contributor version,
491but do not include claims that would be infringed only as a
492consequence of further modification of the contributor version. For
493purposes of this definition, "control" includes the right to grant
494patent sublicenses in a manner consistent with the requirements of
195this License. 495this License.
196 496
197 7. If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent 497 Each contributor grants you a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free
198infringement or for any other reason (not limited to patent issues), 498patent license under the contributor's essential patent claims, to
499make, use, sell, offer for sale, import and otherwise run, modify and
500propagate the contents of its contributor version.
501
502 In the following three paragraphs, a "patent license" is any express
503agreement or commitment, however denominated, not to enforce a patent
504(such as an express permission to practice a patent or covenant not to
505sue for patent infringement). To "grant" such a patent license to a
506party means to make such an agreement or commitment not to enforce a
507patent against the party.
508
509 If you convey a covered work, knowingly relying on a patent license,
510and the Corresponding Source of the work is not available for anyone
511to copy, free of charge and under the terms of this License, through a
512publicly available network server or other readily accessible means,
513then you must either (1) cause the Corresponding Source to be so
514available, or (2) arrange to deprive yourself of the benefit of the
515patent license for this particular work, or (3) arrange, in a manner
516consistent with the requirements of this License, to extend the patent
517license to downstream recipients. "Knowingly relying" means you have
518actual knowledge that, but for the patent license, your conveying the
519covered work in a country, or your recipient's use of the covered work
520in a country, would infringe one or more identifiable patents in that
521country that you have reason to believe are valid.
522
523 If, pursuant to or in connection with a single transaction or
524arrangement, you convey, or propagate by procuring conveyance of, a
525covered work, and grant a patent license to some of the parties
526receiving the covered work authorizing them to use, propagate, modify
527or convey a specific copy of the covered work, then the patent license
528you grant is automatically extended to all recipients of the covered
529work and works based on it.
530
531 A patent license is "discriminatory" if it does not include within
532the scope of its coverage, prohibits the exercise of, or is
533conditioned on the non-exercise of one or more of the rights that are
534specifically granted under this License. You may not convey a covered
535work if you are a party to an arrangement with a third party that is
536in the business of distributing software, under which you make payment
537to the third party based on the extent of your activity of conveying
538the work, and under which the third party grants, to any of the
539parties who would receive the covered work from you, a discriminatory
540patent license (a) in connection with copies of the covered work
541conveyed by you (or copies made from those copies), or (b) primarily
542for and in connection with specific products or compilations that
543contain the covered work, unless you entered into that arrangement,
544or that patent license was granted, prior to 28 March 2007.
545
546 Nothing in this License shall be construed as excluding or limiting
547any implied license or other defenses to infringement that may
548otherwise be available to you under applicable patent law.
549
550 12. No Surrender of Others' Freedom.
551
199conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or 552 If conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or
200otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not 553otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not
201excuse you from the conditions of this License. If you cannot 554excuse you from the conditions of this License. If you cannot convey a
202distribute so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this 555covered work so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this
203License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you 556License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you may

205license would not permit royalty-free redistribution of the Program by 558to collect a royalty for further conveying from those to whom you convey
206all those who receive copies directly or indirectly through you, then 559the Program, the only way you could satisfy both those terms and this
207the only way you could satisfy both it and this License would be to 560License would be to refrain entirely from conveying the Program.

215It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe any 564 Notwithstanding any other provision of this License, you have
216patents or other property right claims or to contest validity of any 565permission to link or combine any covered work with a work licensed

229 8. If the distribution and/or use of the Program is restricted in
230certain countries either by patents or by copyrighted interfaces, the
231original copyright holder who places the Program under this License
232may add an explicit geographical distribution limitation excluding
233those countries, so that distribution is permitted only in or among
234countries not thus excluded. In such case, this License incorporates
235the limitation as if written in the body of this License.
