<title>Preamble</title>
|
|
<para>
|
|
The licenses for most software are designed to take away your
|
|
freedom to share and change it. By contrast, the GNU General
|
|
Public License is intended to guarantee your freedom to share
|
|
and change free software - to make sure the software is free for
|
|
all its users. This General Public License applies to most of
|
|
the Free Software Foundation's software and to any other
|
|
program whose authors commit to using it. (Some other Free
|
|
Software Foundation software is covered by the GNU Library
|
|
General Public License instead.) You can apply it to your
|
|
programs, too.
|
|
</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>
|
|
When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not
|
|
price. Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure
|
|
that you have the freedom to distribute copies of free software
|
|
(and charge for this service if you wish), that you receive
|
|
source code or can get it if you want it, that you can change
|
|
the software or use pieces of it in new free programs; and that
|
|
you know you can do these things.
|
|
</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>
|
|
To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that forbid
|
|
anyone to deny you these rights or to ask you to surrender the
|
|
rights. These restrictions translate to certain responsibilities
|
|
for you if you distribute copies of the software, or if you
|
|
modify it.
|
|
</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>
|
|
For example, if you distribute copies of such a program, whether
|
|
gratis or for a fee, you must give the recipients all the rights
|
|
that you have. You must make sure that they, too, receive or can
|
|
get the source code. And you must show them these terms so they
|
|
know their rights.
|
|
</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>We protect your rights with two steps:

</listitem>
|

</orderedlist>
|
|
</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>Also, for each author's protection and ours, we want to make certain that
|
|
everyone understands that there is no warranty for this free software. If
|
|
the software is modified by someone else and passed on, we want its
|
|
recipients to know that what they have is not the original, so that any
|
|
problems introduced by others will not reflect on the original authors'
|
|
reputations.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>Finally, any free program is threatened constantly by software patents.
|
|
We wish to avoid the danger that redistributors of a free program will
|
|
individually obtain patent licenses, in effect making the program
|
|
proprietary. To prevent this, we have made it clear that any patent must be
|
|
licensed for everyone's free use or not licensed at all.</para>

|
|
<para>This License applies to any program or other work which contains a notice
|
|
placed by the copyright holder saying it may be distributed under the terms
|
|
of this General Public License. The <quote>Program</quote>, below, refers to any such
|
|
program or work, and a
|
|
<quote>work based on the Program</quote> means either
|
|
the Program or any derivative work under copyright law: that is to say, a
|
|
work containing the Program or a portion of it, either verbatim or with
|
|
modifications and/or translated into another language. (Hereinafter, translation
|
|
is included without limitation in the term

<quote>modification</quote>.) Each licensee is addressed as <quote>you</quote>.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are not covered by
|
|
this License; they are outside its scope. The act of running the Program is not
|
|
restricted, and the output from the Program is covered only if its contents
|
|
constitute a work based on the Program (independent of having been made by running
|
|
the Program). Whether that is true depends on what the Program does.</para>

<para>If the modified program normally reads commands interactively when run, you

must cause it, when started running for such interactive use in the most
|
|
ordinary way, to print or display an announcement including an appropriate
|

copyright notice and a notice that there is no warranty (or else, saying
|
|
that you provide a warranty) and that users may redistribute the program
|
|
under these conditions, and telling the user how to view a copy of this
|
|
License. (Exception: If the Program itself is interactive but does not
|
|
normally print such an announcement, your work based on the Program is not
|
|
required to print an announcement.)</para>

</listitem>
|

</orderedlist>

</para>

|
|
<para>These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole. If identifiable sections
|
|
of that work are not derived from the Program, and can be reasonably considered
|
|
independent and separate works in themselves, then this License, and its terms,
|
|
do not apply to those sections when you distribute them as separate works. But when
|
|
you distribute the same sections as part of a whole which is a work based on the

Program, the distribution of the whole must be on the terms of this License, whose

|
permissions for other licensees extend to the entire whole, and thus to each and

every part regardless of who wrote it.</para>

<para>Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest your rights

the distribution of derivative or collective works based on the Program.</para>
