  Version 2, June 1991
</p>

Copyright (C) 1989, 1991 Free Software Foundation, Inc.  
59 Temple Place - Suite 330, Boston, MA  02111-1307, USA

Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies
of this license document, but changing it is not allowed.

<h2>
  <a id="SEC2" name="SEC2" href="#TOC2">Preamble</a>
</h2>
<p>
  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.
</p>
<p>
  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.
</p>
<p>
  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.
</p>
<p>
  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.
</p>
<p>
  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.
</p>
<p>
  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.
</p>
<p>
  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.
</p>
<p>
  The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and
  modification follow.
</p>
<h2>
  <a id="SEC3" name="SEC3" href="#TOC3">TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING,
  DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION</a>
</h2>
<p>
  <strong>0.</strong> 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".
</p>
<p>
  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.
</p>
<p>
  <strong>1.</strong> 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
  copyright notice and disclaimer of warranty; keep 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.
</p>
<p>
  You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy, and you
  may at your option offer warranty protection in exchange for a fee.
</p>
<p>
  <strong>2.</strong> You may modify your copy or copies of the Program or
  any portion of it, thus forming a work based on the Program, and copy and
  distribute such modifications or work under the terms of Section 1 above,
  provided that you also meet all of these conditions:
</p>
<p>
</p>
<ul>
  <li>
    <strong>a)</strong> You must cause the modified files to carry
    prominent notices stating that you changed the files and the date of
    any change.
  </li>
  <li>
    <strong>b)</strong> You must cause any work that you distribute or
    publish, that in whole or in part contains or is derived from the
    Program or any part thereof, to be licensed as a whole at no charge to
    all third parties under the terms of this License.
  </li>
  <li>
    <strong>c)</strong> If the modified program normally reads commands
    interactively when run, you must cause it, when started running for
    such interactive use in the most ordinary way, to print or display an
    announcement including an appropriate copyright notice and a notice
    that there is no warranty (or else, saying that you provide a warranty)
    and that users may redistribute the program under these conditions, and
    telling the user how to view a copy of this License. (Exception: if the
    Program itself is interactive but does not normally print such an
    announcement, your work based on the Program is not required to print
    an announcement.)
  </li>
</ul>
These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole. If identifiable
sections of that work are not derived from the Program, and can be
reasonably considered independent and separate works in themselves, then
this License, and its terms, do not apply to those sections when you
distribute them as separate works. But when you distribute the same
sections as part of a whole which is a work based on the Program, the
distribution of the whole must be on the terms of this License, whose
permissions for other licensees extend to the entire whole, and thus to
each and every part regardless of who wrote it. 
<p>
  Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest
  your rights to work written entirely by you; rather, the intent is to
  exercise the right to control the distribution of derivative or
  collective works based on the Program.
</p>
<p>
  In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the Program
  with the Program (or with a work based on the Program) on a volume of a
  storage or distribution medium does not bring the other work under the
  scope of this License.
</p>
<p>
  <strong>3.</strong> You may copy and distribute the Program (or a work
  based on it, under Section 2) in object code or executable form under the
  terms of Sections 1 and 2 above provided that you also do one of the
  following: 
  <!-- we use this doubled UL to get the sub-sections indented, -->
  <!-- while making the bullets as unobvious as possible. -->
</p>
<ul>
  <li>
    <strong>a)</strong> Accompany it with the complete corresponding
    machine-readable source code, which must be distributed under the terms
    of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium customarily used for software
    interchange; or,
  </li>
  <li>
    <strong>b)</strong> Accompany it with a written offer, valid for at
    least three years, to give any third party, for a charge no more than
    your cost of physically performing source distribution, a complete
    machine-readable copy of the corresponding source code, to be
    distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium
    customarily used for software interchange; or,
  </li>
  <li>
    <strong>c)</strong> Accompany it with the information you received as
    to the offer to distribute corresponding source code. (This alternative
    is allowed only for noncommercial distribution and only if you received
    the program in object code or executable form with such an offer, in
    accord with Subsection b above.)
  </li>
</ul>
The source code for a work means the preferred form of the work for making
modifications to it. For an executable work, complete source code means all
the source code for all modules it contains, plus any associated interface
definition files, plus the scripts used to control compilation and
installation of the executable. However, as a special exception, the source
code distributed need not include anything that is normally distributed (in
either source or binary form) with the major components (compiler, kernel,
and so on) of the operating system on which the executable runs, unless
that component itself accompanies the executable. 
<p>
  If distribution of executable or object code is made by offering access
  to copy from a designated place, then offering equivalent access to copy
  the source code from the same place counts as distribution of the source
  code, even though third parties are not compelled to copy the source
  along with the object code.
</p>
<p>
  <strong>4.</strong> You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute
  the Program except as expressly provided under this License. Any attempt
  otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense or distribute the Program is void,
  and will automatically terminate your rights under this License. However,
  parties who have received copies, or rights, from you under this License
  will not have their licenses terminated so long as such parties remain in
  full compliance.
</p>
<p>
  <strong>5.</strong> You are not required to accept this License, since
  you have not signed it. However, nothing else grants you permission to
  modify or distribute the Program or its derivative works. These actions
  are prohibited by law if you do not accept this License. Therefore, by
  modifying or distributing the Program (or any work based on the Program),
  you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so, and all its terms
  and conditions for copying, distributing or modifying the Program or
  works based on it.
</p>
<p>
  <strong>6.</strong> Each time you redistribute the Program (or any work
  based on the Program), the recipient automatically receives a license
  from the original licensor to copy, distribute or modify the Program
  subject to these terms and conditions. You may not impose any further
  restrictions on the recipients' exercise of the rights granted herein.
  You are not responsible for enforcing compliance by third parties to this
  License.
</p>
<p>
  <strong>7.</strong> If, as a consequence of a court judgment or
  allegation of patent infringement or for any other reason (not limited to
  patent issues), 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
  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 Program by all those
  who receive copies directly or indirectly through you, then the only way
  you could satisfy both it and this License would be to refrain entirely
  from distribution of the Program.
</p>
<p>
  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.
</p>
<p>
  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 software distribution system, which is implemented by public
  license practices. Many people have made generous contributions to the
  wide range of software distributed through that system in reliance on
  consistent application of that system; it is up to the author/donor to
  decide if he or she is willing to distribute software through any other
  system and a licensee cannot impose that choice.
</p>
<p>
  This section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is believed to be
  a consequence of the rest of this License.
</p>
<p>
  <strong>8.</strong> If the distribution and/or use of the Program is
  restricted in certain countries either by patents or by copyrighted
  interfaces, 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.
</p>
<p>
  <strong>9.</strong> The Free Software 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 address new problems or concerns.
</p>
<p>
  Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the Program
  specifies 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
  Software Foundation. If the Program does not specify a version number of
  this License, you may choose any version ever published by the Free
  Software Foundation.
</p>
<p>
  <strong>10.</strong> If you wish to incorporate parts of the Program into
  other free programs whose distribution conditions are different, write to
  the author to ask for permission. For software which is copyrighted by
  the Free Software Foundation, write to the Free Software Foundation; we
  sometimes make exceptions for this. Our decision will be guided by the
  two goals of preserving the free status of all derivatives of our free
  software and of promoting the sharing and reuse of software generally.
</p>
<p>
  <strong>NO WARRANTY</strong>
</p>
<p>
  <strong>11.</strong> BECAUSE THE PROGRAM IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE,
  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.
</p>
<p>
  <strong>12.</strong> IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR
  AGREED TO IN WRITING WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO
  MAY MODIFY AND/OR REDISTRIBUTE 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.
</p>
<p>

  <a id="SEC4" name="SEC4" href="#TOC4">How to Apply These Terms to Your
  New Programs</a>
</h2>
<p>
  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.
</p>
<p>
  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 convey
  the exclusion of warranty; and each file should have at least the
  "copyright" line and a pointer to where the full notice is found.
</p>

one line to give the program's name and an idea of what it does.

<p>
  Also add information on how to contact you by electronic and paper mail.
</p>
<p>
  If the program is interactive, make it output a short notice like this
  when it starts in an interactive mode:
</p>

Gnomovision version 69, Copyright (C) year name of author
Gnomovision comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY; for details
type `show w'.  This is free software, and you are welcome
to redistribute it under certain conditions; type `show c' 
for details.

<p>
  The hypothetical commands <samp>`show w'</samp> and <samp>`show c'</samp>
  should show the appropriate parts of the General Public License. Of
  course, the commands you use may be called something other than
  <samp>`show w'</samp> and <samp>`show c'</samp>; they could even be
  mouse-clicks or menu items--whatever suits your program.
</p>
<p>
  You should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer) or your
  school, if any, to sign a "copyright disclaimer" for the program, if
  necessary. Here is a sample; alter the names:

<p>
  This General Public License does not permit incorporating your program
  into proprietary programs. If your program is a subroutine library, you
  may consider it more 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. <!-- Inhalt - Ende -->
