GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE
Version 2, June 1991
Copyright (C) 1989, 1991 Free Software Foundation,
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 Library 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.
