By contrast,<br \/>\nthe GNU General Public License is intended to guarantee your freedom to<br \/>\nshare and change all versions of a program&#8211;to make sure it remains free<br \/>\nsoftware for all its users.  We, the Free Software Foundation, use the<br \/>\nGNU General Public License for most of our software; it applies also to<br \/>\nany other work released this way by its authors.  You can apply it to<br \/>\nyour programs, too.<\/p>\n<p>When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not<br \/>\nprice.  Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that you<br \/>\nhave the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge for<br \/>\nthem if you wish), that you receive source code or can get it if you<br \/>\nwant it, that you can change the software or use pieces of it in new<br \/>\nfree programs, and that you know you can do these things.<\/p>\n<p>To protect your rights, we need to prevent others from denying you<br \/>\nthese rights or asking you to surrender the rights.  Therefore, you have<br \/>\ncertain responsibilities if you distribute copies of the software, or if<br \/>\nyou modify it: responsibilities to respect the freedom of others.<\/p>\n<p>For example, if you distribute copies of such a program, whether<br \/>\ngratis or for a fee, you must pass on to the recipients the same<br \/>\nfreedoms that you received.  You must make sure that they, too, receive<br \/>\nor can get the source code.  And you must show them these terms so they<br \/>\nknow their rights.<\/p>\n<p>Developers that use the GNU GPL protect your rights with two steps:<br \/>\n(1) assert copyright on the software, and (2) offer you this License<br \/>\ngiving you legal permission to copy, distribute and\/or modify it.<\/p>\n<p>For the developers&#8217; and authors&#8217; protection, the GPL clearly explains<br \/>\nthat there is no warranty for this free software.  For both users&#8217; and<br \/>\nauthors&#8217; sake, the GPL requires that modified versions be marked as<br \/>\nchanged, so that their problems will not be attributed erroneously to<br \/>\nauthors of previous versions.<\/p>\n<p>Some devices are designed to deny users access to install or run<br \/>\nmodified versions of the software inside them, although the manufacturer<br \/>\ncan do so.  This is fundamentally incompatible with the aim of<br \/>\nprotecting users&#8217; freedom to change the software.  The systematic<br \/>\npattern of such abuse occurs in the area of products for individuals to<br \/>\nuse, which is precisely where it is most unacceptable.  Therefore, we<br \/>\nhave designed this version of the GPL to prohibit the practice for those<br \/>\nproducts.  If such problems arise substantially in other domains, we<br \/>\nstand ready to extend this provision to those domains in future versions<br \/>\nof the GPL, as needed to protect the freedom of users.<\/p>\n<p>Finally, every program is threatened constantly by software patents.<br \/>\nStates should not allow patents to restrict development and use of<br \/>\nsoftware on general-purpose computers, but in those that do, we wish to<br \/>\navoid the special danger that patents applied to a free program could<br \/>\nmake it effectively proprietary.  To prevent this, the GPL assures that<br \/>\npatents cannot be used to render the program non-free.<\/p>\n<p>The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and<br \/>\nmodification follow.<\/p>\n<h3><a name=\"terms\"><\/a>TERMS AND CONDITIONS<\/h3>\n<h4><a name=\"section0\"><\/a>0. Definitions.<\/h4>\n<p>&ldquo;This License&rdquo; refers to version 3 of the GNU General Public License.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;Copyright&rdquo; also means copyright-like laws that apply to other kinds of<br \/>\nworks, such as semiconductor masks.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;The Program&rdquo; refers to any copyrightable work licensed under this<br \/>\nLicense.  Each licensee is addressed as &ldquo;you&rdquo;.  &ldquo;Licensees&rdquo; and<br \/>\n&ldquo;recipients&rdquo; may be individuals or organizations.<\/p>\n<p>To &ldquo;modify&rdquo; a work means to copy from or adapt all or part of the work<br \/>\nin a fashion requiring copyright permission, other than the making of an<br \/>\nexact copy.  The resulting work is called a &ldquo;modified version&rdquo; of the<br \/>\nearlier work or a work &ldquo;based on&rdquo; the earlier work.<\/p>\n<p>A &ldquo;covered work&rdquo; means either the unmodified Program or a work based<br \/>\non the Program.<\/p>\n<p>To &ldquo;propagate&rdquo; a work means to do anything with it that, without<br \/>\npermission, would make you directly or secondarily liable for<br \/>\ninfringement under applicable copyright law, except executing it on a<br \/>\ncomputer or modifying a private copy.  Propagation includes copying,<br \/>\ndistribution (with or without modification), making available to the<br \/>\npublic, and in some countries other activities as well.<\/p>\n<p>To &ldquo;convey&rdquo; a work means any kind of propagation that enables other<br \/>\nparties to make or receive copies.  Mere interaction with a user through<br \/>\na computer network, with no transfer of a copy, is not conveying.<\/p>\n<p>An interactive user interface displays &ldquo;Appropriate Legal Notices&rdquo;<br \/>\nto the extent that it includes a convenient and prominently visible<br \/>\nfeature that (1) displays an appropriate copyright notice, and (2)<br \/>\ntells the user that there is no warranty for the work (except to the<br \/>\nextent that warranties are provided), that licensees may convey the<br \/>\nwork under this License, and how to view a copy of this License.  If<br \/>\nthe interface presents a list of user commands or options, such as a<br \/>\nmenu, a prominent item in the list meets this criterion.<\/p>\n<h4><a name=\"section1\"><\/a>1. Source Code.<\/h4>\n<p>The &ldquo;source code&rdquo; for a work means the preferred form of the work<br \/>\nfor making modifications to it.  &ldquo;Object code&rdquo; means any non-source<br \/>\nform of a work.<\/p>\n<p>A &ldquo;Standard Interface&rdquo; means an interface that either is an official<br \/>\nstandard defined by a recognized standards body, or, in the case of<br \/>\ninterfaces specified for a particular programming language, one that<br \/>\nis widely used among developers working in that language.<\/p>\n<p>The &ldquo;System Libraries&rdquo; of an executable work include anything, other<br \/>\nthan the work as a whole, that (a) is included in the normal form of<br \/>\npackaging a Major Component, but which is not part of that Major<br \/>\nComponent, and (b) serves only to enable use of the work with that<br \/>\nMajor Component, or to implement a Standard Interface for which an<br \/>\nimplementation is available to the public in source code form.  A<br \/>\n&ldquo;Major Component&rdquo;, in this context, means a major essential component<br \/>\n(kernel, window system, and so on) of the specific operating system<br \/>\n(if any) on which the executable work runs, or a compiler used to<br \/>\nproduce the work, or an object code interpreter used to run it.<\/p>\n<p>The &ldquo;Corresponding Source&rdquo; for a work in object code form means all<br \/>\nthe source code needed to generate, install, and (for an executable<br \/>\nwork) run the object code and to modify the work, including scripts to<br \/>\ncontrol those activities.  However, it does not include the work&#8217;s<br \/>\nSystem Libraries, or general-purpose tools or generally available free<br \/>\nprograms which are used unmodified in performing those activities but<br \/>\nwhich are not part of the work.  For example, Corresponding Source<br \/>\nincludes interface definition files associated with source files for<br \/>\nthe work, and the source code for shared libraries and dynamically<br \/>\nlinked subprograms that the work is specifically designed to require,<br \/>\nsuch as by intimate data communication or control flow between those<br \/>\nsubprograms and other parts of the work.<\/p>\n<p>The Corresponding Source need not include anything that users<br \/>\ncan regenerate automatically from other parts of the Corresponding<br \/>\nSource.<\/p>\n<p>The Corresponding Source for a work in source code form is that<br \/>\nsame work.<\/p>\n<h4><a name=\"section2\"><\/a>2. Basic Permissions.<\/h4>\n<p>All rights granted under this License are granted for the term of<br \/>\ncopyright on the Program, and are irrevocable provided the stated<br \/>\nconditions are met.  This License explicitly affirms your unlimited<br \/>\npermission to run the unmodified Program.  The output from running a<br \/>\ncovered work is covered by this License only if the output, given its<br \/>\ncontent, constitutes a covered work.  This License acknowledges your<br \/>\nrights of fair use or other equivalent, as provided by copyright law.<\/p>\n<p>You may make, run and propagate covered works that you do not<br \/>\nconvey, without conditions so long as your license otherwise remains<br \/>\nin force.  You may convey covered works to others for the sole purpose<br \/>\nof having them make modifications exclusively for you, or provide you<br \/>\nwith facilities for running those works, provided that you comply with<br \/>\nthe terms of this License in conveying all material for which you do<br \/>\nnot control copyright.  Those thus making or running the covered works<br \/>\nfor you must do so exclusively on your behalf, under your direction<br \/>\nand control, on terms that prohibit them from making any copies of<br \/>\nyour copyrighted material outside their relationship with you.<\/p>\n<p>Conveying under any other circumstances is permitted solely under<br \/>\nthe conditions stated below.  Sublicensing is not allowed; section 10<br \/>\nmakes it unnecessary.<\/p>\n<h4><a name=\"section3\"><\/a>3. Protecting Users&#8217; Legal Rights From Anti-Circumvention Law.<\/h4>\n<p>No covered work shall be deemed part of an effective technological<br \/>\nmeasure under any applicable law fulfilling obligations under article<br \/>\n11 of the WIPO copyright treaty adopted on 20 December 1996, or<br \/>\nsimilar laws prohibiting or restricting circumvention of such<br \/>\nmeasures.<\/p>\n<p>When you convey a covered work, you waive any legal power to forbid<br \/>\ncircumvention of technological measures to the extent such circumvention<br \/>\nis effected by exercising rights under this License with respect to<br \/>\nthe covered work, and you disclaim any intention to limit operation or<br \/>\nmodification of the work as a means of enforcing, against the work&#8217;s<br \/>\nusers, your or third parties&#8217; legal rights to forbid circumvention of<br \/>\ntechnological measures.<\/p>\n<h4><a name=\"section4\"><\/a>4. Conveying Verbatim Copies.<\/h4>\n<p>You may convey verbatim copies of the Program&#8217;s source code as you<br \/>\nreceive it, in any medium, provided that you conspicuously and<br \/>\nappropriately publish on each copy an appropriate copyright notice;<br \/>\nkeep intact all notices stating that this License and any<br \/>\nnon-permissive terms added in accord with section 7 apply to the code;<br \/>\nkeep intact all notices of the absence of any warranty; and give all<br \/>\nrecipients a copy of this License along with the Program.<\/p>\n<p>You may charge any price or no price for each copy that you convey,<br \/>\nand you may offer support or warranty protection for a fee.<\/p>\n<h4><a name=\"section5\"><\/a>5. Conveying Modified Source Versions.<\/h4>\n<p>You may convey a work based on the Program, or the modifications to<br \/>\nproduce it from the Program, in the form of source code under the<br \/>\nterms of section 4, provided that you also meet all of these conditions:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>a) The work must carry prominent notices stating that you modified<br \/>\n    it, and giving a relevant date.<\/li>\n<li>b) The work must carry prominent notices stating that it is<br \/>\n    released under this License and any conditions added under section<br \/>\n    7.  This requirement modifies the requirement in section 4 to<br \/>\n    &ldquo;keep intact all notices&rdquo;.<\/li>\n<li>c) You must license the entire work, as a whole, under this<br \/>\n    License to anyone who comes into possession of a copy.  This<br \/>\n    License will therefore apply, along with any applicable section 7<br \/>\n    additional terms, to the whole of the work, and all its parts,<br \/>\n    regardless of how they are packaged.  This License gives no<br \/>\n    permission to license the work in any other way, but it does not<br \/>\n    invalidate such permission if you have separately received it.<\/li>\n<li>d) If the work has interactive user interfaces, each must display<br \/>\n    Appropriate Legal Notices; however, if the Program has interactive<br \/>\n    interfaces that do not display Appropriate Legal Notices, your<br \/>\n    work need not make them do so.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>A compilation of a covered work with other separate and independent<br \/>\nworks, which are not by their nature extensions of the covered work,<br \/>\nand which are not combined with it such as to form a larger program,<br \/>\nin or on a volume of a storage or distribution medium, is called an<br \/>\n&ldquo;aggregate&rdquo; if the compilation and its resulting copyright are not<br \/>\nused to limit the access or legal rights of the compilation&#8217;s users<br \/>\nbeyond what the individual works permit.  Inclusion of a covered work<br \/>\nin an aggregate does not cause this License to apply to the other<br \/>\nparts of the aggregate.<\/p>\n<h4><a name=\"section6\"><\/a>6. Conveying Non-Source Forms.<\/h4>\n<p>You may convey a covered work in object code form under the terms<br \/>\nof sections 4 and 5, provided that you also convey the<br \/>\nmachine-readable Corresponding Source under the terms of this License,<br \/>\nin one of these ways:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>a) Convey the object code in, or embodied in, a physical product<br \/>\n    (including a physical distribution medium), accompanied by the<br \/>\n    Corresponding Source fixed on a durable physical medium<br \/>\n    customarily used for software interchange.<\/li>\n<li>b) Convey the object code in, or embodied in, a physical product<br \/>\n    (including a physical distribution medium), accompanied by a<br \/>\n    written offer, valid for at least three years and valid for as<br \/>\n    long as you offer spare parts or customer support for that product<br \/>\n    model, to give anyone who possesses the object code either (1) a<br \/>\n    copy of the Corresponding Source for all the software in the<br \/>\n    product that is covered by this License, on a durable physical<br \/>\n    medium customarily used for software interchange, for a price no<br \/>\n    more than your reasonable cost of physically performing this<br \/>\n    conveying of source, or (2) access to copy the<br \/>\n    Corresponding Source from a network server at no charge.<\/li>\n<li>c) Convey individual copies of the object code with a copy of the<br \/>\n    written offer to provide the Corresponding Source.  This<br \/>\n    alternative is allowed only occasionally and noncommercially, and<br \/>\n    only if you received the object code with such an offer, in accord<br \/>\n    with subsection 6b.<\/li>\n<li>d) Convey the object code by offering access from a designated<br \/>\n    place (gratis or for a charge), and offer equivalent access to the<br \/>\n    Corresponding Source in the same way through the same place at no<br \/>\n    further charge.  You need not require recipients to copy the<br \/>\n    Corresponding Source along with the object code.  If the place to<br \/>\n    copy the object code is a network server, the Corresponding Source<br \/>\n    may be on a different server (operated by you or a third party)<br \/>\n    that supports equivalent copying facilities, provided you maintain<br \/>\n    clear directions next to the object code saying where to find the<br \/>\n    Corresponding Source.  Regardless of what server hosts the<br \/>\n    Corresponding Source, you remain obligated to ensure that it is<br \/>\n    available for as long as needed to satisfy these requirements.<\/li>\n<li>e) Convey the object code using peer-to-peer transmission, provided<br \/>\n    you inform other peers where the object code and Corresponding<br \/>\n    Source of the work are being offered to the general public at no<br \/>\n    charge under subsection 6d.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>A separable portion of the object code, whose source code is excluded<br \/>\nfrom the Corresponding Source as a System Library, need not be<br \/>\nincluded in conveying the object code work.<\/p>\n<p>A &ldquo;User Product&rdquo; is either (1) a &ldquo;consumer product&rdquo;, which means any<br \/>\ntangible personal property which is normally used for personal, family,<br \/>\nor household purposes, or (2) anything designed or sold for incorporation<br \/>\ninto a dwelling.  In determining whether a product is a consumer product,<br \/>\ndoubtful cases shall be resolved in favor of coverage.  For a particular<br \/>\nproduct received by a particular user, &ldquo;normally used&rdquo; refers to a<br \/>\ntypical or common use of that class of product, regardless of the status<br \/>\nof the particular user or of the way in which the particular user<br \/>\nactually uses, or expects or is expected to use, the product.  A product<br \/>\nis a consumer product regardless of whether the product has substantial<br \/>\ncommercial, industrial or non-consumer uses, unless such uses represent<br \/>\nthe only significant mode of use of the product.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;Installation Information&rdquo; for a User Product means any methods,<br \/>\nprocedures, authorization keys, or other information required to install<br \/>\nand execute modified versions of a covered work in that User Product from<br \/>\na modified version of its Corresponding Source.  The information must<br \/>\nsuffice to ensure that the continued functioning of the modified object<br \/>\ncode is in no case prevented or interfered with solely because<br \/>\nmodification has been made.<\/p>\n<p>If you convey an object code work under this section in, or with, or<br \/>\nspecifically for use in, a User Product, and the conveying occurs as<br \/>\npart of a transaction in which the right of possession and use of the<br \/>\nUser Product is transferred to the recipient in perpetuity or for a<br \/>\nfixed term (regardless of how the transaction is characterized), the<br \/>\nCorresponding Source conveyed under this section must be accompanied<br \/>\nby the Installation Information.  But this requirement does not apply<br \/>\nif neither you nor any third party retains the ability to install<br \/>\nmodified object code on the User Product (for example, the work has<br \/>\nbeen installed in ROM).<\/p>\n<p>The requirement to provide Installation Information does not include a<br \/>\nrequirement to continue to provide support service, warranty, or updates<br \/>\nfor a work that has been modified or installed by the recipient, or for<br \/>\nthe User Product in which it has been modified or installed.  Access to a<br \/>\nnetwork may be denied when the modification itself materially and<br \/>\nadversely affects the operation of the network or violates the rules and<br \/>\nprotocols for communication across the network.<\/p>\n<p>Corresponding Source conveyed, and Installation Information provided,<br \/>\nin accord with this section must be in a format that is publicly<br \/>\ndocumented (and with an implementation available to the public in<br \/>\nsource code form), and must require no special password or key for<br \/>\nunpacking, reading or copying.<\/p>\n<h4><a name=\"section7\"><\/a>7. Additional Terms.<\/h4>\n<p>&ldquo;Additional permissions&rdquo; are terms that supplement the terms of this<br \/>\nLicense by making exceptions from one or more of its conditions.<br \/>\nAdditional permissions that are applicable to the entire Program shall<br \/>\nbe treated as though they were included in this License, to the extent<br \/>\nthat they are valid under applicable law.  If additional permissions<br \/>\napply only to part of the Program, that part may be used separately<br \/>\nunder those permissions, but the entire Program remains governed by<br \/>\nthis License without regard to the additional permissions.<\/p>\n<p>When you convey a copy of a covered work, you may at your option<br \/>\nremove any additional permissions from that copy, or from any part of<br \/>\nit.  (Additional permissions may be written to require their own<br \/>\nremoval in certain cases when you modify the work.)  You may place<br \/>\nadditional permissions on material, added by you to a covered work,<br \/>\nfor which you have or can give appropriate copyright permission.<\/p>\n<p>Notwithstanding any other provision of this License, for material you<br \/>\nadd to a covered work, you may (if authorized by the copyright holders of<br \/>\nthat material) supplement the terms of this License with terms:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>a) Disclaiming warranty or limiting liability differently from the<br \/>\n    terms of sections 15 and 16 of this License; or<\/li>\n<li>b) Requiring preservation of specified reasonable legal notices or<br \/>\n    author attributions in that material or in the Appropriate Legal<br \/>\n    Notices displayed by works containing it; or<\/li>\n<li>c) Prohibiting misrepresentation of the origin of that material, or<br \/>\n    requiring that modified versions of such material be marked in<br \/>\n    reasonable ways as different from the original version; or<\/li>\n<li>d) Limiting the use for publicity purposes of names of licensors or<br \/>\n    authors of the material; or<\/li>\n<li>e) Declining to grant rights under trademark law for use of some<br \/>\n    trade names, trademarks, or service marks; or<\/li>\n<li>f) Requiring indemnification of licensors and authors of that<br \/>\n    material by anyone who conveys the material (or modified versions of<br \/>\n    it) with contractual assumptions of liability to the recipient, for<br \/>\n    any liability that these contractual assumptions directly impose on<br \/>\n    those licensors and authors.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>All other non-permissive additional terms are considered &ldquo;further<br \/>\nrestrictions&rdquo; within the meaning of section 10.  If the Program as you<br \/>\nreceived it, or any part of it, contains a notice stating that it is<br \/>\ngoverned by this License along with a term that is a further<br \/>\nrestriction, you may remove that term.  If a license document contains<br \/>\na further restriction but permits relicensing or conveying under this<br \/>\nLicense, you may add to a covered work material governed by the terms<br \/>\nof that license document, provided that the further restriction does<br \/>\nnot survive such relicensing or conveying.<\/p>\n<p>If you add terms to a covered work in accord with this section, you<br \/>\nmust place, in the relevant source files, a statement of the<br \/>\nadditional terms that apply to those files, or a notice indicating<br \/>\nwhere to find the applicable terms.<\/p>\n<p>Additional terms, permissive or non-permissive, may be stated in the<br \/>\nform of a separately written license, or stated as exceptions;<br \/>\nthe above requirements apply either way.<\/p>\n<h4><a name=\"section8\"><\/a>8. Termination.<\/h4>\n<p>You may not propagate or modify a covered work except as expressly<br \/>\nprovided under this License.  Any attempt otherwise to propagate or<br \/>\nmodify it is void, and will automatically terminate your rights under<br \/>\nthis License (including any patent licenses granted under the third<br \/>\nparagraph of section 11).<\/p>\n<p>However, if you cease all violation of this License, then your<br \/>\nlicense from a particular copyright holder is reinstated (a)<br \/>\nprovisionally, unless and until the copyright holder explicitly and<br \/>\nfinally terminates your license, and (b) permanently, if the copyright<br \/>\nholder fails to notify you of the violation by some reasonable means<br \/>\nprior to 60 days after the cessation.<\/p>\n<p>Moreover, your license from a particular copyright holder is<br \/>\nreinstated permanently if the copyright holder notifies you of the<br \/>\nviolation by some reasonable means, this is the first time you have<br \/>\nreceived notice of violation of this License (for any work) from that<br \/>\ncopyright holder, and you cure the violation prior to 30 days after<br \/>\nyour receipt of the notice.<\/p>\n<p>Termination of your rights under this section does not terminate the<br \/>\nlicenses of parties who have received copies or rights from you under<br \/>\nthis License.  If your rights have been terminated and not permanently<br \/>\nreinstated, you do not qualify to receive new licenses for the same<br \/>\nmaterial under section 10.<\/p>\n<h4><a name=\"section9\"><\/a>9. Acceptance Not Required for Having Copies.<\/h4>\n<p>You are not required to accept this License in order to receive or<br \/>\nrun a copy of the Program.  Ancillary propagation of a covered work<br \/>\noccurring solely as a consequence of using peer-to-peer transmission<br \/>\nto receive a copy likewise does not require acceptance.  However,<br \/>\nnothing other than this License grants you permission to propagate or<br \/>\nmodify any covered work.  These actions infringe copyright if you do<br \/>\nnot accept this License.  Therefore, by modifying or propagating a<br \/>\ncovered work, you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so.<\/p>\n<h4><a name=\"section10\"><\/a>10. Automatic Licensing of Downstream Recipients.<\/h4>\n<p>Each time you convey a covered work, the recipient automatically<br \/>\nreceives a license from the original licensors, to run, modify and<br \/>\npropagate that work, subject to this License.  You are not responsible<br \/>\nfor enforcing compliance by third parties with this License.<\/p>\n<p>An &ldquo;entity transaction&rdquo; is a transaction transferring control of an<br \/>\norganization, or substantially all assets of one, or subdividing an<br \/>\norganization, or merging organizations.  If propagation of a covered<br \/>\nwork results from an entity transaction, each party to that<br \/>\ntransaction who receives a copy of the work also receives whatever<br \/>\nlicenses to the work the party&#8217;s predecessor in interest had or could<br \/>\ngive under the previous paragraph, plus a right to possession of the<br \/>\nCorresponding Source of the work from the predecessor in interest, if<br \/>\nthe predecessor has it or can get it with reasonable efforts.<\/p>\n<p>You may not impose any further restrictions on the exercise of the<br \/>\nrights granted or affirmed under this License.  For example, you may<br \/>\nnot impose a license fee, royalty, or other charge for exercise of<br \/>\nrights granted under this License, and you may not initiate litigation<br \/>\n(including a cross-claim or counterclaim in a lawsuit) alleging that<br \/>\nany patent claim is infringed by making, using, selling, offering for<br \/>\nsale, or importing the Program or any portion of it.<\/p>\n<h4><a name=\"section11\"><\/a>11. Patents.<\/h4>\n<p>A &ldquo;contributor&rdquo; is a copyright holder who authorizes use under this<br \/>\nLicense of the Program or a work on which the Program is based.  The<br \/>\nwork thus licensed is called the contributor&#8217;s &ldquo;contributor version&rdquo;.<\/p>\n<p>A contributor&#8217;s &ldquo;essential patent claims&rdquo; are all patent claims<br \/>\nowned or controlled by the contributor, whether already acquired or<br \/>\nhereafter acquired, that would be infringed by some manner, permitted<br \/>\nby this License, of making, using, or selling its contributor version,<br \/>\nbut do not include claims that would be infringed only as a<br \/>\nconsequence of further modification of the contributor version.  For<br \/>\npurposes of this definition, &ldquo;control&rdquo; includes the right to grant<br \/>\npatent sublicenses in a manner consistent with the requirements of<br \/>\nthis License.<\/p>\n<p>Each contributor grants you a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free<br \/>\npatent license under the contributor&#8217;s essential patent claims, to<br \/>\nmake, use, sell, offer for sale, import and otherwise run, modify and<br \/>\npropagate the contents of its contributor version.<\/p>\n<p>In the following three paragraphs, a &ldquo;patent license&rdquo; is any express<br \/>\nagreement or commitment, however denominated, not to enforce a patent<br \/>\n(such as an express permission to practice a patent or covenant not to<br \/>\nsue for patent infringement).  To &ldquo;grant&rdquo; such a patent license to a<br \/>\nparty means to make such an agreement or commitment not to enforce a<br \/>\npatent against the party.<\/p>\n<p>If you convey a covered work, knowingly relying on a patent license,<br \/>\nand the Corresponding Source of the work is not available for anyone<br \/>\nto copy, free of charge and under the terms of this License, through a<br \/>\npublicly available network server or other readily accessible means,<br \/>\nthen you must either (1) cause the Corresponding Source to be so<br \/>\navailable, or (2) arrange to deprive yourself of the benefit of the<br \/>\npatent license for this particular work, or (3) arrange, in a manner<br \/>\nconsistent with the requirements of this License, to extend the patent<br \/>\nlicense to downstream recipients.  &ldquo;Knowingly relying&rdquo; means you have<br \/>\nactual knowledge that, but for the patent license, your conveying the<br \/>\ncovered work in a country, or your recipient&#8217;s use of the covered work<br \/>\nin a country, would infringe one or more identifiable patents in that<br \/>\ncountry that you have reason to believe are valid.<\/p>\n<p>If, pursuant to or in connection with a single transaction or<br \/>\narrangement, you convey, or propagate by procuring conveyance of, a<br \/>\ncovered work, and grant a patent license to some of the parties<br \/>\nreceiving the covered work authorizing them to use, propagate, modify<br \/>\nor convey a specific copy of the covered work, then the patent license<br \/>\nyou grant is automatically extended to all recipients of the covered<br \/>\nwork and works based on it.<\/p>\n<p>A patent license is &ldquo;discriminatory&rdquo; if it does not include within<br \/>\nthe scope of its coverage, prohibits the exercise of, or is<br \/>\nconditioned on the non-exercise of one or more of the rights that are<br \/>\nspecifically granted under this License.  You may not convey a covered<br \/>\nwork if you are a party to an arrangement with a third party that is<br \/>\nin the business of distributing software, under which you make payment<br \/>\nto the third party based on the extent of your activity of conveying<br \/>\nthe work, and under which the third party grants, to any of the<br \/>\nparties who would receive the covered work from you, a discriminatory<br \/>\npatent license (a) in connection with copies of the covered work<br \/>\nconveyed by you (or copies made from those copies), or (b) primarily<br \/>\nfor and in connection with specific products or compilations that<br \/>\ncontain the covered work, unless you entered into that arrangement,<br \/>\nor that patent license was granted, prior to 28 March 2007.<\/p>\n<p>Nothing in this License shall be construed as excluding or limiting<br \/>\nany implied license or other defenses to infringement that may<br \/>\notherwise be available to you under applicable patent law.<\/p>\n<h4><a name=\"section12\"><\/a>12. No Surrender of Others&#8217; Freedom.<\/h4>\n<p>If conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or<br \/>\notherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not<br \/>\nexcuse you from the conditions of this License.  If you cannot convey a<br \/>\ncovered work so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this<br \/>\nLicense and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you may<br \/>\nnot convey it at all.  For example, if you agree to terms that obligate you<br \/>\nto collect a royalty for further conveying from those to whom you convey<br \/>\nthe Program, the only way you could satisfy both those terms and this<br \/>\nLicense would be to refrain entirely from conveying the Program.<\/p>\n<h4><a name=\"section13\"><\/a>13. Use with the GNU Affero General Public License.<\/h4>\n<p>Notwithstanding any other provision of this License, you have<br \/>\npermission to link or combine any covered work with a work licensed<br \/>\nunder version 3 of the GNU Affero General Public License into a single<br \/>\ncombined work, and to convey the resulting work.  The terms of this<br \/>\nLicense will continue to apply to the part which is the covered work,<br \/>\nbut the special requirements of the GNU Affero General Public License,<br \/>\nsection 13, concerning interaction through a network will apply to the<br \/>\ncombination as such.<\/p>\n<h4><a name=\"section14\"><\/a>14. Revised Versions of this License.<\/h4>\n<p>The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and\/or new versions of<br \/>\nthe GNU General Public License from time to time.  Such new versions will<br \/>\nbe similar in spirit to the present version, but may differ in detail to<br \/>\naddress new problems or concerns.<\/p>\n<p>Each version is given a distinguishing version number.  If the<br \/>\nProgram specifies that a certain numbered version of the GNU General<br \/>\nPublic License &ldquo;or any later version&rdquo; applies to it, you have the<br \/>\noption of following the terms and conditions either of that numbered<br \/>\nversion or of any later version published by the Free Software<br \/>\nFoundation.  If the Program does not specify a version number of the<br \/>\nGNU General Public License, you may choose any version ever published<br \/>\nby the Free Software Foundation.<\/p>\n<p>If the Program specifies that a proxy can decide which future<br \/>\nversions of the GNU General Public License can be used, that proxy&#8217;s<br \/>\npublic statement of acceptance of a version permanently authorizes you<br \/>\nto choose that version for the Program.<\/p>\n<p>Later license versions may give you additional or different<br \/>\npermissions.  However, no additional obligations are imposed on any<br \/>\nauthor or copyright holder as a result of your choosing to follow a<br \/>\nlater version.<\/p>\n<h4><a name=\"section15\"><\/a>15. Disclaimer of Warranty.<\/h4>\n<p>THERE IS NO WARRANTY FOR THE PROGRAM, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY<br \/>\nAPPLICABLE LAW.  EXCEPT WHEN OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT<br \/>\nHOLDERS AND\/OR OTHER PARTIES PROVIDE THE PROGRAM &ldquo;AS IS&rdquo; WITHOUT WARRANTY<br \/>\nOF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO,<br \/>\nTHE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR<br \/>\nPURPOSE.  THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE PROGRAM<br \/>\nIS WITH YOU.  SHOULD THE PROGRAM PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE COST OF<br \/>\nALL NECESSARY SERVICING, REPAIR OR CORRECTION.<\/p>\n<h4><a name=\"section16\"><\/a>16. Limitation of Liability.<\/h4>\n<p>IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN WRITING<br \/>\nWILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MODIFIES AND\/OR CONVEYS<br \/>\nTHE PROGRAM AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES, INCLUDING ANY<br \/>\nGENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THE<br \/>\nUSE OR INABILITY TO USE THE PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF<br \/>\nDATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY YOU OR THIRD<br \/>\nPARTIES OR A FAILURE OF THE PROGRAM TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER PROGRAMS),<br \/>\nEVEN IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF<br \/>\nSUCH DAMAGES.<\/p>\n<h4><a name=\"section17\"><\/a>17. Interpretation of Sections 15 and 16.<\/h4>\n<p>If the disclaimer of warranty and limitation of liability provided<br \/>\nabove cannot be given local legal effect according to their terms,<br \/>\nreviewing courts shall apply local law that most closely approximates<br \/>\nan absolute waiver of all civil liability in connection with the<br \/>\nProgram, unless a warranty or assumption of liability accompanies a<br \/>\ncopy of the Program in return for a fee.<\/p>\n<p>END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>If you want to download SHARC, you must accept the following Terms of Use.
