- GNU AFFERO GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE
- Version 3, 19 November 2007
-
- Copyright (C) 2007 Free Software Foundation, Inc. <http://fsf.org/>
- Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies
- of this license document, but changing it is not allowed.
-
- Preamble
-
- The GNU Affero General Public License is a free, copyleft license for
- software and other kinds of works, specifically designed to ensure
- cooperation with the community in the case of network server software.
-
- The licenses for most software and other practical works are designed
- to take away your freedom to share and change the works. By contrast,
- our General Public Licenses are intended to guarantee your freedom to
- share and change all versions of a program--to make sure it remains free
- software for all its users.
-
- 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
- them 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.
-
- Developers that use our General Public Licenses protect your rights
- with two steps: (1) assert copyright on the software, and (2) offer
- you this License which gives you legal permission to copy, distribute
- and/or modify the software.
-
- A secondary benefit of defending all users' freedom is that
- improvements made in alternate versions of the program, if they
- receive widespread use, become available for other developers to
- incorporate. Many developers of free software are heartened and
- encouraged by the resulting cooperation. However, in the case of
- software used on network servers, this result may fail to come about.
- The GNU General Public License permits making a modified version and
- letting the public access it on a server without ever releasing its
- source code to the public.
-
- The GNU Affero General Public License is designed specifically to
- ensure that, in such cases, the modified source code becomes available
- to the community. It requires the operator of a network server to
- provide the source code of the modified version running there to the
- users of that server. Therefore, public use of a modified version, on
- a publicly accessible server, gives the public access to the source
- code of the modified version.
-
- An older license, called the Affero General Public License and
- published by Affero, was designed to accomplish similar goals. This is
- a different license, not a version of the Affero GPL, but Affero has
- released a new version of the Affero GPL which permits relicensing under
- this license.
-
- The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and
- modification follow.
-
- TERMS AND CONDITIONS
-
- 0. Definitions.
-
- "This License" refers to version 3 of the GNU Affero General Public License.
-
- "Copyright" also means copyright-like laws that apply to other kinds of
- works, such as semiconductor masks.
-
- "The Program" refers to any copyrightable work licensed under this
- License. Each licensee is addressed as "you". "Licensees" and
- "recipients" may be individuals or organizations.
-
- To "modify" a work means to copy from or adapt all or part of the work
- in a fashion requiring copyright permission, other than the making of an
- exact copy. The resulting work is called a "modified version" of the
- earlier work or a work "based on" the earlier work.
-
- A "covered work" means either the unmodified Program or a work based
- on the Program.
-
- To "propagate" a work means to do anything with it that, without
- permission, would make you directly or secondarily liable for
- infringement under applicable copyright law, except executing it on a
- computer or modifying a private copy. Propagation includes copying,
- distribution (with or without modification), making available to the
- public, and in some countries other activities as well.
-
- To "convey" a work means any kind of propagation that enables other
- parties to make or receive copies. Mere interaction with a user through
- a computer network, with no transfer of a copy, is not conveying.
-
- An interactive user interface displays "Appropriate Legal Notices"
- to the extent that it includes a convenient and prominently visible
- feature that (1) displays an appropriate copyright notice, and (2)
- tells the user that there is no warranty for the work (except to the
- extent that warranties are provided), that licensees may convey the
- work under this License, and how to view a copy of this License. If
- the interface presents a list of user commands or options, such as a
- menu, a prominent item in the list meets this criterion.
-
- 1. Source Code.
-
- The "source code" for a work means the preferred form of the work
- for making modifications to it. "Object code" means any non-source
- form of a work.
-
- A "Standard Interface" means an interface that either is an official
- standard defined by a recognized standards body, or, in the case of
- interfaces specified for a particular programming language, one that
- is widely used among developers working in that language.
-
- The "System Libraries" of an executable work include anything, other
- than the work as a whole, that (a) is included in the normal form of
- packaging a Major Component, but which is not part of that Major
- Component, and (b) serves only to enable use of the work with that
- Major Component, or to implement a Standard Interface for which an
- implementation is available to the public in source code form. A
- "Major Component", in this context, means a major essential component
- (kernel, window system, and so on) of the specific operating system
- (if any) on which the executable work runs, or a compiler used to
- produce the work, or an object code interpreter used to run it.
-
- The "Corresponding Source" for a work in object code form means all
- the source code needed to generate, install, and (for an executable
- work) run the object code and to modify the work, including scripts to
- control those activities. However, it does not include the work's
- System Libraries, or general-purpose tools or generally available free
- programs which are used unmodified in performing those activities but
- which are not part of the work. For example, Corresponding Source
- includes interface definition files associated with source files for
- the work, and the source code for shared libraries and dynamically
- linked subprograms that the work is specifically designed to require,
- such as by intimate data communication or control flow between those
- subprograms and other parts of the work.
-
- The Corresponding Source need not include anything that users
- can regenerate automatically from other parts of the Corresponding
- Source.
-
- The Corresponding Source for a work in source code form is that
- same work.
-
- 2. Basic Permissions.
-
- All rights granted under this License are granted for the term of
- copyright on the Program, and are irrevocable provided the stated
- conditions are met. This License explicitly affirms your unlimited
- permission to run the unmodified Program. The output from running a
- covered work is covered by this License only if the output, given its
- content, constitutes a covered work. This License acknowledges your
- rights of fair use or other equivalent, as provided by copyright law.
-
- You may make, run and propagate covered works that you do not
- convey, without conditions so long as your license otherwise remains
- in force. You may convey covered works to others for the sole purpose
- of having them make modifications exclusively for you, or provide you
- with facilities for running those works, provided that you comply with
- the terms of this License in conveying all material for which you do
- not control copyright. Those thus making or running the covered works
- for you must do so exclusively on your behalf, under your direction
- and control, on terms that prohibit them from making any copies of
- your copyrighted material outside their relationship with you.
-
- Conveying under any other circumstances is permitted solely under
- the conditions stated below. Sublicensing is not allowed; section 10
- makes it unnecessary.
-
- 3. Protecting Users' Legal Rights From Anti-Circumvention Law.
-
- No covered work shall be deemed part of an effective technological
- measure under any applicable law fulfilling obligations under article
- 11 of the WIPO copyright treaty adopted on 20 December 1996, or
- similar laws prohibiting or restricting circumvention of such
- measures.
-
- When you convey a covered work, you waive any legal power to forbid
- circumvention of technological measures to the extent such circumvention
- is effected by exercising rights under this License with respect to
- the covered work, and you disclaim any intention to limit operation or
- modification of the work as a means of enforcing, against the work's
- users, your or third parties' legal rights to forbid circumvention of
- technological measures.
-
- 4. Conveying Verbatim Copies.
-
- You may convey 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 copyright notice;
- keep intact all notices stating that this License and any
- non-permissive terms added in accord with section 7 apply to the code;
- keep intact all notices of the absence of any warranty; and give all
- recipients a copy of this License along with the Program.
-
- You may charge any price or no price for each copy that you convey,
- and you may offer support or warranty protection for a fee.
-
- 5. Conveying Modified Source Versions.
-
- You may convey a work based on the Program, or the modifications to
- produce it from the Program, in the form of source code under the
- terms of section 4, provided that you also meet all of these conditions:
-
- a) The work must carry prominent notices stating that you modified
- it, and giving a relevant date.
-
- b) The work must carry prominent notices stating that it is
- released under this License and any conditions added under section
- 7. This requirement modifies the requirement in section 4 to
- "keep intact all notices".
-
- c) You must license the entire work, as a whole, under this
- License to anyone who comes into possession of a copy. This
- License will therefore apply, along with any applicable section 7
- additional terms, to the whole of the work, and all its parts,
- regardless of how they are packaged. This License gives no
- permission to license the work in any other way, but it does not
- invalidate such permission if you have separately received it.
-
- d) If the work has interactive user interfaces, each must display
- Appropriate Legal Notices; however, if the Program has interactive
- interfaces that do not display Appropriate Legal Notices, your
- work need not make them do so.
-
- A compilation of a covered work with other separate and independent
- works, which are not by their nature extensions of the covered work,
- and which are not combined with it such as to form a larger program,
- in or on a volume of a storage or distribution medium, is called an
- "aggregate" if the compilation and its resulting copyright are not
- used to limit the access or legal rights of the compilation's users
- beyond what the individual works permit. Inclusion of a covered work
- in an aggregate does not cause this License to apply to the other
- parts of the aggregate.
-
- 6. Conveying Non-Source Forms.
-
- You may convey a covered work in object code form under the terms
- of sections 4 and 5, provided that you also convey the
- machine-readable Corresponding Source under the terms of this License,
- in one of these ways:
-
- a) Convey the object code in, or embodied in, a physical product
- (including a physical distribution medium), accompanied by the
- Corresponding Source fixed on a durable physical medium
- customarily used for software interchange.
-
- b) Convey the object code in, or embodied in, a physical product
- (including a physical distribution medium), accompanied by a
- written offer, valid for at least three years and valid for as
- long as you offer spare parts or customer support for that product
- model, to give anyone who possesses the object code either (1) a
- copy of the Corresponding Source for all the software in the
- product that is covered by this License, on a durable physical
- medium customarily used for software interchange, for a price no
- more than your reasonable cost of physically performing this
- conveying of source, or (2) access to copy the
- Corresponding Source from a network server at no charge.
-
- c) Convey individual copies of the object code with a copy of the
- written offer to provide the Corresponding Source. This
- alternative is allowed only occasionally and noncommercially, and
- only if you received the object code with such an offer, in accord
- with subsection 6b.
-
- d) Convey the object code by offering access from a designated
- place (gratis or for a charge), and offer equivalent access to the
- Corresponding Source in the same way through the same place at no
- further charge. You need not require recipients to copy the
- Corresponding Source along with the object code. If the place to
- copy the object code is a network server, the Corresponding Source
- may be on a different server (operated by you or a third party)
- that supports equivalent copying facilities, provided you maintain
- clear directions next to the object code saying where to find the
- Corresponding Source. Regardless of what server hosts the
- Corresponding Source, you remain obligated to ensure that it is
- available for as long as needed to satisfy these requirements.
-
- e) Convey the object code using peer-to-peer transmission, provided
- you inform other peers where the object code and Corresponding
- Source of the work are being offered to the general public at no
- charge under subsection 6d.
-
- A separable portion of the object code, whose source code is excluded
- from the Corresponding Source as a System Library, need not be
- included in conveying the object code work.
-
- A "User Product" is either (1) a "consumer product", which means any
- tangible personal property which is normally used for personal, family,
- or household purposes, or (2) anything designed or sold for incorporation
- into a dwelling. In determining whether a product is a consumer product,
- doubtful cases shall be resolved in favor of coverage. For a particular
- product received by a particular user, "normally used" refers to a
- typical or common use of that class of product, regardless of the status
- of the particular user or of the way in which the particular user
- actually uses, or expects or is expected to use, the product. A product
- is a consumer product regardless of whether the product has substantial
- commercial, industrial or non-consumer uses, unless such uses represent
- the only significant mode of use of the product.
-
- "Installation Information" for a User Product means any methods,
- procedures, authorization keys, or other information required to install
- and execute modified versions of a covered work in that User Product from
- a modified version of its Corresponding Source. The information must
- suffice to ensure that the continued functioning of the modified object
- code is in no case prevented or interfered with solely because
- modification has been made.
-
- If you convey an object code work under this section in, or with, or
- specifically for use in, a User Product, and the conveying occurs as
- part of a transaction in which the right of possession and use of the
- User Product is transferred to the recipient in perpetuity or for a
- fixed term (regardless of how the transaction is characterized), the
- Corresponding Source conveyed under this section must be accompanied
- by the Installation Information. But this requirement does not apply
- if neither you nor any third party retains the ability to install
- modified object code on the User Product (for example, the work has
- been installed in ROM).
-
- The requirement to provide Installation Information does not include a
- requirement to continue to provide support service, warranty, or updates
- for a work that has been modified or installed by the recipient, or for
- the User Product in which it has been modified or installed. Access to a
- network may be denied when the modification itself materially and
- adversely affects the operation of the network or violates the rules and
- protocols for communication across the network.
-
- Corresponding Source conveyed, and Installation Information provided,
- in accord with this section must be in a format that is publicly
- documented (and with an implementation available to the public in
- source code form), and must require no special password or key for
- unpacking, reading or copying.
-
- 7. Additional Terms.
-
- "Additional permissions" are terms that supplement the terms of this
- License by making exceptions from one or more of its conditions.
- Additional permissions that are applicable to the entire Program shall
- be treated as though they were included in this License, to the extent
- that they are valid under applicable law. If additional permissions
- apply only to part of the Program, that part may be used separately
- under those permissions, but the entire Program remains governed by
- this License without regard to the additional permissions.
-
- When you convey a copy of a covered work, you may at your option
- remove any additional permissions from that copy, or from any part of
- it. (Additional permissions may be written to require their own
- removal in certain cases when you modify the work.) You may place
- additional permissions on material, added by you to a covered work,
- for which you have or can give appropriate copyright permission.
-
- Notwithstanding any other provision of this License, for material you
- add to a covered work, you may (if authorized by the copyright holders of
- that material) supplement the terms of this License with terms:
-
- a) Disclaiming warranty or limiting liability differently from the
- terms of sections 15 and 16 of this License; or
-
- b) Requiring preservation of specified reasonable legal notices or
- author attributions in that material or in the Appropriate Legal
- Notices displayed by works containing it; or
-
- c) Prohibiting misrepresentation of the origin of that material, or
- requiring that modified versions of such material be marked in
- reasonable ways as different from the original version; or
-
- d) Limiting the use for publicity purposes of names of licensors or
- authors of the material; or
-
- e) Declining to grant rights under trademark law for use of some
- trade names, trademarks, or service marks; or
-
- f) Requiring indemnification of licensors and authors of that
- material by anyone who conveys the material (or modified versions of
- it) with contractual assumptions of liability to the recipient, for
- any liability that these contractual assumptions directly impose on
- those licensors and authors.
-
- All other non-permissive additional terms are considered "further
- restrictions" within the meaning of section 10. If the Program as you
- received it, or any part of it, contains a notice stating that it is
- governed by this License along with a term that is a further
- restriction, you may remove that term. If a license document contains
- a further restriction but permits relicensing or conveying under this
- License, you may add to a covered work material governed by the terms
- of that license document, provided that the further restriction does
- not survive such relicensing or conveying.
-
- If you add terms to a covered work in accord with this section, you
- must place, in the relevant source files, a statement of the
- additional terms that apply to those files, or a notice indicating
- where to find the applicable terms.
-
- Additional terms, permissive or non-permissive, may be stated in the
- form of a separately written license, or stated as exceptions;
- the above requirements apply either way.
-
- 8. Termination.
-
- You may not propagate or modify a covered work except as expressly
- provided under this License. Any attempt otherwise to propagate or
- modify it is void, and will automatically terminate your rights under
- this License (including any patent licenses granted under the third
- paragraph of section 11).
-
- However, if you cease all violation of this License, then your
- license from a particular copyright holder is reinstated (a)
- provisionally, unless and until the copyright holder explicitly and
- finally terminates your license, and (b) permanently, if the copyright
- holder fails to notify you of the violation by some reasonable means
- prior to 60 days after the cessation.
-
- Moreover, your license from a particular copyright holder is
- reinstated permanently if the copyright holder notifies you of the
- violation by some reasonable means, this is the first time you have
- received notice of violation of this License (for any work) from that
- copyright holder, and you cure the violation prior to 30 days after
- your receipt of the notice.
-
- Termination of your rights under this section does not terminate the
- licenses of parties who have received copies or rights from you under
- this License. If your rights have been terminated and not permanently
- reinstated, you do not qualify to receive new licenses for the same
- material under section 10.
-
- 9. Acceptance Not Required for Having Copies.
-
- You are not required to accept this License in order to receive or
- run a copy of the Program. Ancillary propagation of a covered work
- occurring solely as a consequence of using peer-to-peer transmission
- to receive a copy likewise does not require acceptance. However,
- nothing other than this License grants you permission to propagate or
- modify any covered work. These actions infringe copyright if you do
- not accept this License. Therefore, by modifying or propagating a
- covered work, you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so.
-
- 10. Automatic Licensing of Downstream Recipients.
-
- Each time you convey a covered work, the recipient automatically
- receives a license from the original licensors, to run, modify and
- propagate that work, subject to this License. You are not responsible
- for enforcing compliance by third parties with this License.
-
- An "entity transaction" is a transaction transferring control of an
- organization, or substantially all assets of one, or subdividing an
- organization, or merging organizations. If propagation of a covered
- work results from an entity transaction, each party to that
- transaction who receives a copy of the work also receives whatever
- licenses to the work the party's predecessor in interest had or could
- give under the previous paragraph, plus a right to possession of the
- Corresponding Source of the work from the predecessor in interest, if
- the predecessor has it or can get it with reasonable efforts.
-
- You may not impose any further restrictions on the exercise of the
- rights granted or affirmed under this License. For example, you may
- not impose a license fee, royalty, or other charge for exercise of
- rights granted under this License, and you may not initiate litigation
- (including a cross-claim or counterclaim in a lawsuit) alleging that
- any patent claim is infringed by making, using, selling, offering for
- sale, or importing the Program or any portion of it.
-
- 11. Patents.
-
- A "contributor" is a copyright holder who authorizes use under this
- License of the Program or a work on which the Program is based. The
- work thus licensed is called the contributor's "contributor version".
-
- A contributor's "essential patent claims" are all patent claims
- owned or controlled by the contributor, whether already acquired or
- hereafter acquired, that would be infringed by some manner, permitted
- by this License, of making, using, or selling its contributor version,
- but do not include claims that would be infringed only as a
- consequence of further modification of the contributor version. For
- purposes of this definition, "control" includes the right to grant
- patent sublicenses in a manner consistent with the requirements of
- this License.
-
- Each contributor grants you a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free
- patent license under the contributor's essential patent claims, to
- make, use, sell, offer for sale, import and otherwise run, modify and
- propagate the contents of its contributor version.
-
- In the following three paragraphs, a "patent license" is any express
- agreement or commitment, however denominated, not to enforce a patent
- (such as an express permission to practice a patent or covenant not to
- sue for patent infringement). To "grant" such a patent license to a
- party means to make such an agreement or commitment not to enforce a
- patent against the party.
-
- If you convey a covered work, knowingly relying on a patent license,
- and the Corresponding Source of the work is not available for anyone
- to copy, free of charge and under the terms of this License, through a
- publicly available network server or other readily accessible means,
- then you must either (1) cause the Corresponding Source to be so
- available, or (2) arrange to deprive yourself of the benefit of the
- patent license for this particular work, or (3) arrange, in a manner
- consistent with the requirements of this License, to extend the patent
- license to downstream recipients. "Knowingly relying" means you have
- actual knowledge that, but for the patent license, your conveying the
- covered work in a country, or your recipient's use of the covered work
- in a country, would infringe one or more identifiable patents in that
- country that you have reason to believe are valid.
-
- If, pursuant to or in connection with a single transaction or
- arrangement, you convey, or propagate by procuring conveyance of, a
- covered work, and grant a patent license to some of the parties
- receiving the covered work authorizing them to use, propagate, modify
- or convey a specific copy of the covered work, then the patent license
- you grant is automatically extended to all recipients of the covered
- work and works based on it.
-
- A patent license is "discriminatory" if it does not include within
- the scope of its coverage, prohibits the exercise of, or is
- conditioned on the non-exercise of one or more of the rights that are
- specifically granted under this License. You may not convey a covered
- work if you are a party to an arrangement with a third party that is
- in the business of distributing software, under which you make payment
- to the third party based on the extent of your activity of conveying
- the work, and under which the third party grants, to any of the
- parties who would receive the covered work from you, a discriminatory
- patent license (a) in connection with copies of the covered work
- conveyed by you (or copies made from those copies), or (b) primarily
- for and in connection with specific products or compilations that
- contain the covered work, unless you entered into that arrangement,
- or that patent license was granted, prior to 28 March 2007.
-
- Nothing in this License shall be construed as excluding or limiting
- any implied license or other defenses to infringement that may
- otherwise be available to you under applicable patent law.
-
- 12. No Surrender of Others' Freedom.
-
- If conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or
- otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not
- excuse you from the conditions of this License. If you cannot convey a
- covered work so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this
- License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you may
- not convey it at all. For example, if you agree to terms that obligate you
- to collect a royalty for further conveying from those to whom you convey
- the Program, the only way you could satisfy both those terms and this
- License would be to refrain entirely from conveying the Program.
-
- 13. Remote Network Interaction; Use with the GNU General Public License.
-
- Notwithstanding any other provision of this License, if you modify the
- Program, your modified version must prominently offer all users
- interacting with it remotely through a computer network (if your version
- supports such interaction) an opportunity to receive the Corresponding
- Source of your version by providing access to the Corresponding Source
- from a network server at no charge, through some standard or customary
- means of facilitating copying of software. This Corresponding Source
- shall include the Corresponding Source for any work covered by version 3
- of the GNU General Public License that is incorporated pursuant to the
- following paragraph.
-
- Notwithstanding any other provision of this License, you have
- permission to link or combine any covered work with a work licensed
- under version 3 of the GNU General Public License into a single
- combined work, and to convey the resulting work. The terms of this
- License will continue to apply to the part which is the covered work,
- but the work with which it is combined will remain governed by version
- 3 of the GNU General Public License.
-
- 14. Revised Versions of this License.
-
- The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions of
- the GNU Affero General Public License from time to time. Such new versions
- will be similar in spirit to the present version, but may differ in detail to
- address new problems or concerns.
-
- Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the
- Program specifies that a certain numbered version of the GNU Affero General
- Public License "or any later version" applies to it, you have the
- option of following the terms and conditions either of that numbered
- version or of any later version published by the Free Software
- Foundation. If the Program does not specify a version number of the
- GNU Affero General Public License, you may choose any version ever published
- by the Free Software Foundation.
-
- If the Program specifies that a proxy can decide which future
- versions of the GNU Affero General Public License can be used, that proxy's
- public statement of acceptance of a version permanently authorizes you
- to choose that version for the Program.
-
- Later license versions may give you additional or different
- permissions. However, no additional obligations are imposed on any
- author or copyright holder as a result of your choosing to follow a
- later version.
-
- 15. Disclaimer of Warranty.
-
- THERE IS NO WARRANTY FOR THE PROGRAM, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY
- APPLICABLE LAW. EXCEPT WHEN OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT
- HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER PARTIES PROVIDE THE PROGRAM "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY
- OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO,
- THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR
- PURPOSE. THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE PROGRAM
- IS WITH YOU. SHOULD THE PROGRAM PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE COST OF
- ALL NECESSARY SERVICING, REPAIR OR CORRECTION.
-
- 16. Limitation of Liability.
-
- IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN WRITING
- WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MODIFIES AND/OR CONVEYS
- THE PROGRAM AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES, INCLUDING ANY
- GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THE
- USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF
- DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY YOU OR THIRD
- PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF THE PROGRAM TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER PROGRAMS),
- EVEN IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF
- SUCH DAMAGES.
-
- 17. Interpretation of Sections 15 and 16.
-
- If the disclaimer of warranty and limitation of liability provided
- above cannot be given local legal effect according to their terms,
- reviewing courts shall apply local law that most closely approximates
- an absolute waiver of all civil liability in connection with the
- Program, unless a warranty or assumption of liability accompanies a
- copy of the Program in return for a fee.
-
- END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS
-
- How to Apply These Terms to Your New Programs
-
- If you develop a new program, and you want it to be of the greatest
- possible use to the public, the best way to achieve this is to make it
- free software which everyone can redistribute and change under these terms.
-
- To do so, attach the following notices to the program. It is safest
- to attach them to the start of each source file to most effectively
- state the exclusion of warranty; and each file should have at least
- the "copyright" line and a pointer to where the full notice is found.
-
- <one line to give the program's name and a brief idea of what it does.>
- Copyright (C) <year> <name of author>
-
- This program is free software: you can redistribute it and/or modify
- it under the terms of the GNU Affero General Public License as published
- by the Free Software Foundation, either version 3 of the License, or
- (at your option) any later version.
-
- This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful,
- but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of
- MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. See the
- GNU Affero General Public License for more details.
-
- You should have received a copy of the GNU Affero General Public License
- along with this program. If not, see <http://www.gnu.org/licenses/>.
-
- Also add information on how to contact you by electronic and paper mail.
-
- If your software can interact with users remotely through a computer
- network, you should also make sure that it provides a way for users to
- get its source. For example, if your program is a web application, its
- interface could display a "Source" link that leads users to an archive
- of the code. There are many ways you could offer source, and different
- solutions will be better for different programs; see section 13 for the
- specific requirements.
-
- You should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer) or school,
- if any, to sign a "copyright disclaimer" for the program, if necessary.
- For more information on this, and how to apply and follow the GNU AGPL, see
