License. If you cannot distribute so as to satisfy simultaneously
your obligations under this License and any other pertinent
obligations, then as a consequence you may not distribute the
Program at all.
For example, if a patent license would not permit royalty-free
redistribution of the Pr ogram by all those who receive copies
directly or indir ectly through you, then the only way you could
satisfy both it and this License would be to refrain entir ely from
distribution of the Program. If any portion of this section is held
invalid or unenforceable under any particular circumstance, the
balance of the section is intended to apply and the section as a
whole is intended to apply in other circumstances.
It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe any
patents or other property right claims or to contest validity of
any such claims; this section has the sole purpose of protecting
the integrity of the free softwar e distribution system, which is
implemented by public license practices. Many people have made
generous contributions to the wide range of softwar e distributed
through that system in r eliance on consistent application of that
system; it is up to the author/donor to decide if he or she is willing
to distribute software thr ough any other system and a licensee
cannot impose that choice.
This section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is believed
to be a consequence of the rest of this License.
8.If the distribution and/or use of the Program is r estricted in
certain countries either by patents or by copyrighted inter faces,
the original copyright holder who places the Program under this
License may add an explicit geographical distribution limitation
excluding those countries, so that distribution is permitted only in
or among countries not thus excluded. In such case, this License
incorporates the limitation as if written in the body of this License.
9.The Free Softwar e Foundation may publish revised and/or new
versions of the 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 addr ess new problems or concerns.
Each version is given a distinguishing version number . If the
Program specifi es a version number of this License which applies
to it and "any later version", you have the option of following the
terms and conditions either of that version or of any later version
published by the Free Softwar e Foundation. If the Program does
not specify a version number of this License, you may choose any
version ever published by the Free Softwar e Foundation.
10.If you wish to incorporate parts of the Program into other free
programs whose distribution conditions ar e differ ent, write to the
author to ask for permission. For software which is copyrighted
by the Free Softwar e Foundation, write to the Free Softwar e
Foundation; we sometimes make exceptions for this. Our decision
will be guided by the two goals of preserving the fr ee status of all
derivatives of our free softwar e and of promoting the sharing and
reuse of softwar e generally .
NO W ARRANTY
11.BECAUSE THE PROGRAM IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE,
THERE IS NO W ARRANTY FOR THE PROGRAM, TO THE EXTENT
PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LA W . EXCEPT WHEN OTHERWISE
ST A TED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS AND/OR
OTHER P ARTIES PROVIDE THE PROGRAM "AS IS" WITHOUT
W ARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED,
INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED W ARRANTIES
OF MERCHANT ABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A P ARTICULAR
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
NECESSAR Y SERVICING, REP AIR OR CORRECTION.
12.IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LA W OR
AGREED TO IN WRITING WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR
ANY OTHER P ARTY WHO MA Y MODIFY AND/OR REDISTRIBUTE
THE PROGRAM AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR
DAMAGES, INCLUDING ANY GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENT AL
OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THE USE
OR INABILITY TO USE THE PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT NOT
LIMITED TO LOSS OF DA T A OR DA T A BEING RENDERED
INACCURA TE OR LOSSES SUST AINED BY YOU OR THIRD
P ARTIES OR A F AILURE OF THE PROGRAM TO OPERA TE WITH
ANY OTHER PROGRAMS), EVEN IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER
P ARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH
DAMAGES.

How to Apply These T e rms to Y our 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 softwar e which everyone can redistribute and
change under these terms.
T o do so, attach the following notices to the program. It is safest
to attach them to the start of each source fi le to most effectively
convey the exclusion of warranty; and each fi le 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.>

Also add information on how to contact you by electronic and
paper mail.
If the program is interactive, make it output a short notice like this
when it starts in an interactive mode:
Gnomovision version 69, Copyright © 19yy name of author
Gnomovision comes with ABSOLUTEL Y NO W ARRANTY ;
for details type `show w'. This is free softwar e, and you are
welcome to redistribute it under certain conditions; type
`show c' for details.
The hypothetical commands `show w' and `show c' should show
the appropriate parts of the General Public License. Of course, the
commands you use may be called something other than `show w'
and `show c'; they could even be mouse-clicks or menu items –
whatever suits your program.
Y ou should also get your employer (if you work as a pr ogrammer)
or your school, if any , to sign a "copyright disclaimer" for the
program; if necessary . Her e is a sample; alter the names:
Y oyodyne, Inc., her eby disclaims all copyright interest in the
program `Gnomovision' (which makes passes at compilers)
written by James Hacker .

This General Public License does not permit incorporating
your program into pr oprietary programs. If your program is a
subroutine library , you may consider it mor e useful to permit linking
proprietary applications with the library . If this is what you want to
do, use the GNU Library General Public License instead of this
License.
