GNU GENERAL PUBLIC

LICENSE

Version 2, June 1991

Inc., 51 Franklin Street, Fifth Floor, Boston, MA

02110-1301 USA

Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim

copies of this license document, but changing it is not

allowed.

Preamble

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 Lesser General Public License instead.) You can

apply it to your programs, too.

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.

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.

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.

We protect your rights with two steps: (1) copyright the

software, and (2) offer you this license which gives you

legal permission to copy, distribute and/or modify the

software.

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.

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.

The precise terms and conditions for copying,

distribution and modification follow.

TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR

COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND

MODIFICATION

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 "Program",

below, refers to any such program or work, and a

"work based on the Program" 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 "modification".) Each

licensee is addressed as "you".

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.

You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the

Program's source code as you receive it, in any

medium, provided that you conspicuously and

appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate

intact all the notices that refer to this License and to

the absence of any warranty; and give any other

recipients of the Program a copy of this License

along with the Program.
