53 GNU LESSER GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE |
|
54 Version 2.1, February 1999 |
|
55 |
|
56 Copyright (C) 1991, 1999 Free Software Foundation, Inc. |
|
57 51 Franklin Street, Fifth Floor, Boston, MA 02110-1301 USA |
|
58 Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies |
|
59 of this license document, but changing it is not allowed. |
|
60 |
|
61 [This is the first released version of the Lesser GPL. It also counts |
|
62 as the successor of the GNU Library Public License, version 2, hence |
|
63 the version number 2.1.] |
|
64 |
|
65 Preamble |
|
66 |
|
67 The licenses for most software are designed to take away your |
|
68 freedom to share and change it. By contrast, the GNU General Public |
|
69 Licenses are intended to guarantee your freedom to share and change |
|
70 free software--to make sure the software is free for all its users. |
|
71 |
|
72 This license, the Lesser General Public License, applies to some |
|
73 specially designated software packages--typically libraries--of the |
|
74 Free Software Foundation and other authors who decide to use it. You |
|
75 can use it too, but we suggest you first think carefully about whether |
|
76 this license or the ordinary General Public License is the better |
|
77 strategy to use in any particular case, based on the explanations below. |
|
78 |
|
79 When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom of use, |
|
80 not price. Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that |
|
81 you have the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge |
|
82 for this service if you wish); that you receive source code or can get |
|
83 it if you want it; that you can change the software and use pieces of |
|
84 it in new free programs; and that you are informed that you can do |
|
85 these things. |
|
86 |
|
87 To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that forbid |
|
88 distributors to deny you these rights or to ask you to surrender these |
|
89 rights. These restrictions translate to certain responsibilities for |
|
90 you if you distribute copies of the library or if you modify it. |
|
91 |
|
92 For example, if you distribute copies of the library, whether gratis |
|
93 or for a fee, you must give the recipients all the rights that we gave |
|
94 you. You must make sure that they, too, receive or can get the source |
|
95 code. If you link other code with the library, you must provide |
|
96 complete object files to the recipients, so that they can relink them |
|
97 with the library after making changes to the library and recompiling |
|
98 it. And you must show them these terms so they know their rights. |
|
99 |
|
100 We protect your rights with a two-step method: (1) we copyright the |
|
101 library, and (2) we offer you this license, which gives you legal |
|
102 permission to copy, distribute and/or modify the library. |
|
103 |
|
104 To protect each distributor, we want to make it very clear that |
|
105 there is no warranty for the free library. Also, if the library is |
|
106 modified by someone else and passed on, the recipients should know |
|
107 that what they have is not the original version, so that the original |
|
108 author's reputation will not be affected by problems that might be |
|
109 introduced by others. |
|
110 |
|
111 Finally, software patents pose a constant threat to the existence of |
|
112 any free program. We wish to make sure that a company cannot |
|
113 effectively restrict the users of a free program by obtaining a |
|
114 restrictive license from a patent holder. Therefore, we insist that |
|
115 any patent license obtained for a version of the library must be |
|
116 consistent with the full freedom of use specified in this license. |
|
117 |
|
118 Most GNU software, including some libraries, is covered by the |
|
119 ordinary GNU General Public License. This license, the GNU Lesser |
|
120 General Public License, applies to certain designated libraries, and |
|
121 is quite different from the ordinary General Public License. We use |
|
122 this license for certain libraries in order to permit linking those |
|
123 libraries into non-free programs. |
|
124 |
|
125 When a program is linked with a library, whether statically or using |
|
126 a shared library, the combination of the two is legally speaking a |
|
127 combined work, a derivative of the original library. The ordinary |
|
128 General Public License therefore permits such linking only if the |
|
129 entire combination fits its criteria of freedom. The Lesser General |
|
130 Public License permits more lax criteria for linking other code with |
|
131 the library. |
|
132 |
|
133 We call this license the "Lesser" General Public License because it |
|
134 does Less to protect the user's freedom than the ordinary General |
|
135 Public License. It also provides other free software developers Less |
|
136 of an advantage over competing non-free programs. These disadvantages |
|
137 are the reason we use the ordinary General Public License for many |
|
138 libraries. However, the Lesser license provides advantages in certain |
|
139 special circumstances. |
|
140 |
|
141 For example, on rare occasions, there may be a special need to |
|
142 encourage the widest possible use of a certain library, so that it becomes |
|
143 a de-facto standard. To achieve this, non-free programs must be |
|
144 allowed to use the library. A more frequent case is that a free |
|
145 library does the same job as widely used non-free libraries. In this |
|
146 case, there is little to gain by limiting the free library to free |
|
147 software only, so we use the Lesser General Public License. |
|
148 |
|
149 In other cases, permission to use a particular library in non-free |
|
150 programs enables a greater number of people to use a large body of |
|
151 free software. For example, permission to use the GNU C Library in |
|
152 non-free programs enables many more people to use the whole GNU |
|
153 operating system, as well as its variant, the GNU/Linux operating |
|
154 system. |
|
155 |
|
156 Although the Lesser General Public License is Less protective of the |
|
157 users' freedom, it does ensure that the user of a program that is |
|
158 linked with the Library has the freedom and the wherewithal to run |
|
159 that program using a modified version of the Library. |
|
160 |
|
161 The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and |
|
162 modification follow. Pay close attention to the difference between a |
|
163 "work based on the library" and a "work that uses the library". The |
|
164 former contains code derived from the library, whereas the latter must |
|
165 be combined with the library in order to run. |
|
166 |
|
167 TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION |
|
168 |
|
169 0. This License Agreement applies to any software library or other |
|
170 program which contains a notice placed by the copyright holder or |
|
171 other authorized party saying it may be distributed under the terms of |
|
172 this Lesser General Public License (also called "this License"). |
|
173 Each licensee is addressed as "you". |
|
174 |
|
175 A "library" means a collection of software functions and/or data |
|
176 prepared so as to be conveniently linked with application programs |
|
177 (which use some of those functions and data) to form executables. |
|
178 |
|
179 The "Library", below, refers to any such software library or work |
|
180 which has been distributed under these terms. A "work based on the |
|
181 Library" means either the Library or any derivative work under |
|
182 copyright law: that is to say, a work containing the Library or a |
|
183 portion of it, either verbatim or with modifications and/or translated |
|
184 straightforwardly into another language. (Hereinafter, translation is |
|
185 included without limitation in the term "modification".) |
|
186 |
|
187 "Source code" for a work means the preferred form of the work for |
|
188 making modifications to it. For a library, complete source code means |
|
189 all the source code for all modules it contains, plus any associated |
|
190 interface definition files, plus the scripts used to control compilation |
|
191 and installation of the library. |
|
192 |
|
193 Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are not |
|
194 covered by this License; they are outside its scope. The act of |
|
195 running a program using the Library is not restricted, and output from |
|
196 such a program is covered only if its contents constitute a work based |
|
197 on the Library (independent of the use of the Library in a tool for |
|
198 writing it). Whether that is true depends on what the Library does |
|
199 and what the program that uses the Library does. |
|
200 |
|
201 1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Library's |
|
202 complete source code as you receive it, in any medium, provided that |
|
203 you conspicuously and appropriately publish on each copy an |
|
204 appropriate copyright notice and disclaimer of warranty; keep intact |
|
205 all the notices that refer to this License and to the absence of any |
|
206 warranty; and distribute a copy of this License along with the |
|
207 Library. |
|
208 |
|
209 You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy, |
|
210 and you may at your option offer warranty protection in exchange for a |
|
211 fee. |
|
212 |
|
213 2. You may modify your copy or copies of the Library or any portion |
|
214 of it, thus forming a work based on the Library, and copy and |
|
215 distribute such modifications or work under the terms of Section 1 |
|
216 above, provided that you also meet all of these conditions: |
|
217 |
|
218 a) The modified work must itself be a software library. |
|
219 |
|
220 b) You must cause the files modified to carry prominent notices |
|
221 stating that you changed the files and the date of any change. |
|
222 |
|
223 c) You must cause the whole of the work to be licensed at no |
|
224 charge to all third parties under the terms of this License. |
|
225 |
|
226 d) If a facility in the modified Library refers to a function or a |
|
227 table of data to be supplied by an application program that uses |
|
228 the facility, other than as an argument passed when the facility |
|
229 is invoked, then you must make a good faith effort to ensure that, |
|
230 in the event an application does not supply such function or |
|
231 table, the facility still operates, and performs whatever part of |
|
232 its purpose remains meaningful. |
|
233 |
|
234 (For example, a function in a library to compute square roots has |
|
235 a purpose that is entirely well-defined independent of the |
|
236 application. Therefore, Subsection 2d requires that any |
|
237 application-supplied function or table used by this function must |
|
238 be optional: if the application does not supply it, the square |
|
239 root function must still compute square roots.) |
|
240 |
|
241 These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole. If |
|
242 identifiable sections of that work are not derived from the Library, |
|
243 and can be reasonably considered independent and separate works in |
|
244 themselves, then this License, and its terms, do not apply to those |
|
245 sections when you distribute them as separate works. But when you |
|
246 distribute the same sections as part of a whole which is a work based |
|
247 on the Library, the distribution of the whole must be on the terms of |
|
248 this License, whose permissions for other licensees extend to the |
|
249 entire whole, and thus to each and every part regardless of who wrote |
|
250 it. |
|
251 |
|
252 Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest |
|
253 your rights to work written entirely by you; rather, the intent is to |
|
254 exercise the right to control the distribution of derivative or |
|
255 collective works based on the Library. |
|
256 |
|
257 In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the Library |
|
258 with the Library (or with a work based on the Library) on a volume of |
|
259 a storage or distribution medium does not bring the other work under |
|
260 the scope of this License. |
|
261 |
|
262 3. You may opt to apply the terms of the ordinary GNU General Public |
|
263 License instead of this License to a given copy of the Library. To do |
|
264 this, you must alter all the notices that refer to this License, so |
|
265 that they refer to the ordinary GNU General Public License, version 2, |
|
266 instead of to this License. (If a newer version than version 2 of the |
|
267 ordinary GNU General Public License has appeared, then you can specify |
|
268 that version instead if you wish.) Do not make any other change in |
|
269 these notices. |
|
270 |
|
271 Once this change is made in a given copy, it is irreversible for |
|
272 that copy, so the ordinary GNU General Public License applies to all |
|
273 subsequent copies and derivative works made from that copy. |
|
274 |
|
275 This option is useful when you wish to copy part of the code of |
|
276 the Library into a program that is not a library. |
|
277 |
|
278 4. You may copy and distribute the Library (or a portion or |
|
279 derivative of it, under Section 2) in object code or executable form |
|
280 under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above provided that you accompany |
|
281 it with the complete corresponding machine-readable source code, which |
|
282 must be distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a |
|
283 medium customarily used for software interchange. |
|
284 |
|
285 If distribution of object code is made by offering access to copy |
|
286 from a designated place, then offering equivalent access to copy the |
|
287 source code from the same place satisfies the requirement to |
|
288 distribute the source code, even though third parties are not |
|
289 compelled to copy the source along with the object code. |
|
290 |
|
291 5. A program that contains no derivative of any portion of the |
|
292 Library, but is designed to work with the Library by being compiled or |
|
293 linked with it, is called a "work that uses the Library". Such a |
|
294 work, in isolation, is not a derivative work of the Library, and |
|
295 therefore falls outside the scope of this License. |
|
296 |
|
297 However, linking a "work that uses the Library" with the Library |
|
298 creates an executable that is a derivative of the Library (because it |
|
299 contains portions of the Library), rather than a "work that uses the |
|
300 library". The executable is therefore covered by this License. |
|
301 Section 6 states terms for distribution of such executables. |
|
302 |
|
303 When a "work that uses the Library" uses material from a header file |
|
304 that is part of the Library, the object code for the work may be a |
|
305 derivative work of the Library even though the source code is not. |
|
306 Whether this is true is especially significant if the work can be |
|
307 linked without the Library, or if the work is itself a library. The |
|
308 threshold for this to be true is not precisely defined by law. |
|
309 |
|
310 If such an object file uses only numerical parameters, data |
|
311 structure layouts and accessors, and small macros and small inline |
|
312 functions (ten lines or less in length), then the use of the object |
|
313 file is unrestricted, regardless of whether it is legally a derivative |
|
314 work. (Executables containing this object code plus portions of the |
|
315 Library will still fall under Section 6.) |
|
316 |
|
317 Otherwise, if the work is a derivative of the Library, you may |
|
318 distribute the object code for the work under the terms of Section 6. |
|
319 Any executables containing that work also fall under Section 6, |
|
320 whether or not they are linked directly with the Library itself. |
|
321 |
|
322 6. As an exception to the Sections above, you may also combine or |
|
323 link a "work that uses the Library" with the Library to produce a |
|
324 work containing portions of the Library, and distribute that work |
|
325 under terms of your choice, provided that the terms permit |
|
326 modification of the work for the customer's own use and reverse |
|
327 engineering for debugging such modifications. |
|
328 |
|
329 You must give prominent notice with each copy of the work that the |
|
330 Library is used in it and that the Library and its use are covered by |
|
331 this License. You must supply a copy of this License. If the work |
|
332 during execution displays copyright notices, you must include the |
|
333 copyright notice for the Library among them, as well as a reference |
|
334 directing the user to the copy of this License. Also, you must do one |
|
335 of these things: |
|
336 |
|
337 a) Accompany the work with the complete corresponding |
|
338 machine-readable source code for the Library including whatever |
|
339 changes were used in the work (which must be distributed under |
|
340 Sections 1 and 2 above); and, if the work is an executable linked |
|
341 with the Library, with the complete machine-readable "work that |
|
342 uses the Library", as object code and/or source code, so that the |
|
343 user can modify the Library and then relink to produce a modified |
|
344 executable containing the modified Library. (It is understood |
|
345 that the user who changes the contents of definitions files in the |
|
346 Library will not necessarily be able to recompile the application |
|
347 to use the modified definitions.) |
|
348 |
|
349 b) Use a suitable shared library mechanism for linking with the |
|
350 Library. A suitable mechanism is one that (1) uses at run time a |
|
351 copy of the library already present on the user's computer system, |
|
352 rather than copying library functions into the executable, and (2) |
|
353 will operate properly with a modified version of the library, if |
|
354 the user installs one, as long as the modified version is |
|
355 interface-compatible with the version that the work was made with. |
|
356 |
|
357 c) Accompany the work with a written offer, valid for at |
|
358 least three years, to give the same user the materials |
|
359 specified in Subsection 6a, above, for a charge no more |
|
360 than the cost of performing this distribution. |
|
361 |
|
362 d) If distribution of the work is made by offering access to copy |
|
363 from a designated place, offer equivalent access to copy the above |
|
364 specified materials from the same place. |
|
365 |
|
366 e) Verify that the user has already received a copy of these |
|
367 materials or that you have already sent this user a copy. |
|
368 |
|
369 For an executable, the required form of the "work that uses the |
|
370 Library" must include any data and utility programs needed for |
|
371 reproducing the executable from it. However, as a special exception, |
|
372 the materials to be distributed need not include anything that is |
|
373 normally distributed (in either source or binary form) with the major |
|
374 components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of the operating system on |
|
375 which the executable runs, unless that component itself accompanies |
|
376 the executable. |
|
377 |
|
378 It may happen that this requirement contradicts the license |
|
379 restrictions of other proprietary libraries that do not normally |
|
380 accompany the operating system. Such a contradiction means you cannot |
|
381 use both them and the Library together in an executable that you |
|
382 distribute. |
|
383 |
|
384 7. You may place library facilities that are a work based on the |
|
385 Library side-by-side in a single library together with other library |
|
386 facilities not covered by this License, and distribute such a combined |
|
387 library, provided that the separate distribution of the work based on |
|
388 the Library and of the other library facilities is otherwise |
|
389 permitted, and provided that you do these two things: |
|
390 |
|
391 a) Accompany the combined library with a copy of the same work |
|
392 based on the Library, uncombined with any other library |
|
393 facilities. This must be distributed under the terms of the |
|
394 Sections above. |
|
395 |
|
396 b) Give prominent notice with the combined library of the fact |
|
397 that part of it is a work based on the Library, and explaining |
|
398 where to find the accompanying uncombined form of the same work. |
|
399 |
|
400 8. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, link with, or distribute |
|
401 the Library except as expressly provided under this License. Any |
|
402 attempt otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense, link with, or |
|
403 distribute the Library is void, and will automatically terminate your |
|
404 rights under this License. However, parties who have received copies, |
|
405 or rights, from you under this License will not have their licenses |
|
406 terminated so long as such parties remain in full compliance. |
|
407 |
|
408 9. You are not required to accept this License, since you have not |
|
409 signed it. However, nothing else grants you permission to modify or |
|
410 distribute the Library or its derivative works. These actions are |
|
411 prohibited by law if you do not accept this License. Therefore, by |
|
412 modifying or distributing the Library (or any work based on the |
|
413 Library), you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so, and |
|
414 all its terms and conditions for copying, distributing or modifying |
|
415 the Library or works based on it. |
|
416 |
|
417 10. Each time you redistribute the Library (or any work based on the |
|
418 Library), the recipient automatically receives a license from the |
|
419 original licensor to copy, distribute, link with or modify the Library |
|
420 subject to these terms and conditions. You may not impose any further |
|
421 restrictions on the recipients' exercise of the rights granted herein. |
|
422 You are not responsible for enforcing compliance by third parties with |
|
423 this License. |
|
424 |
|
425 11. If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent |
|
426 infringement or for any other reason (not limited to patent issues), |
|
427 conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or |
|
428 otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not |
|
429 excuse you from the conditions of this License. If you cannot |
|
430 distribute so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this |
|
431 License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you |
|
432 may not distribute the Library at all. For example, if a patent |
|
433 license would not permit royalty-free redistribution of the Library by |
|
434 all those who receive copies directly or indirectly through you, then |
|
435 the only way you could satisfy both it and this License would be to |
|
436 refrain entirely from distribution of the Library. |
|
437 |
|
438 If any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable under any |
|
439 particular circumstance, the balance of the section is intended to apply, |
|
440 and the section as a whole is intended to apply in other circumstances. |
|
441 |
|
442 It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe any |
|
443 patents or other property right claims or to contest validity of any |
|
444 such claims; this section has the sole purpose of protecting the |
|
445 integrity of the free software distribution system which is |
|
446 implemented by public license practices. Many people have made |
|
447 generous contributions to the wide range of software distributed |
|
448 through that system in reliance on consistent application of that |
|
449 system; it is up to the author/donor to decide if he or she is willing |
|
450 to distribute software through any other system and a licensee cannot |
|
451 impose that choice. |
|
452 |
|
453 This section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is believed to |
|
454 be a consequence of the rest of this License. |
|
455 |
|
456 12. If the distribution and/or use of the Library is restricted in |
|
457 certain countries either by patents or by copyrighted interfaces, the |
|
458 original copyright holder who places the Library under this License may add |
|
459 an explicit geographical distribution limitation excluding those countries, |
|
460 so that distribution is permitted only in or among countries not thus |
|
461 excluded. In such case, this License incorporates the limitation as if |
|
462 written in the body of this License. |
|
463 |
|
464 13. The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new |
|
465 versions of the Lesser General Public License from time to time. |
|
466 Such new versions will be similar in spirit to the present version, |
|
467 but may differ in detail to address new problems or concerns. |
|
468 |
|
469 Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the Library |
|
470 specifies a version number of this License which applies to it and |
|
471 "any later version", you have the option of following the terms and |
|
472 conditions either of that version or of any later version published by |
|
473 the Free Software Foundation. If the Library does not specify a |
|
474 license version number, you may choose any version ever published by |
|
475 the Free Software Foundation. |
|
476 |
|
477 14. If you wish to incorporate parts of the Library into other free |
|
478 programs whose distribution conditions are incompatible with these, |
|
479 write to the author to ask for permission. For software which is |
|
480 copyrighted by the Free Software Foundation, write to the Free |
|
481 Software Foundation; we sometimes make exceptions for this. Our |
|
482 decision will be guided by the two goals of preserving the free status |
|
483 of all derivatives of our free software and of promoting the sharing |
|
484 and reuse of software generally. |
|
485 |
|
486 NO WARRANTY |
|
487 |
|
488 15. BECAUSE THE LIBRARY IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE, THERE IS NO |
|
489 WARRANTY FOR THE LIBRARY, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW. |
|
490 EXCEPT WHEN OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS AND/OR |
|
491 OTHER PARTIES PROVIDE THE LIBRARY "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY |
|
492 KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE |
|
493 IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR |
|
494 PURPOSE. THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE |
|
495 LIBRARY IS WITH YOU. SHOULD THE LIBRARY PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME |
|
496 THE COST OF ALL NECESSARY SERVICING, REPAIR OR CORRECTION. |
|
497 |
|
498 16. IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN |
|
499 WRITING WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MAY MODIFY |
|
500 AND/OR REDISTRIBUTE THE LIBRARY AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU |
|
501 FOR DAMAGES, INCLUDING ANY GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR |
|
502 CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE |
|
503 LIBRARY (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF DATA OR DATA BEING |
|
504 RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY YOU OR THIRD PARTIES OR A |
|
505 FAILURE OF THE LIBRARY TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER SOFTWARE), EVEN IF |
|
506 SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH |
|
507 DAMAGES. |
|
508 |
|
509 END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS |

|
511 How to Apply These Terms to Your New Libraries |
|
512 |
|
513 If you develop a new library, and you want it to be of the greatest |
|
514 possible use to the public, we recommend making it free software that |
|
515 everyone can redistribute and change. You can do so by permitting |
|
516 redistribution under these terms (or, alternatively, under the terms of the |
|
517 ordinary General Public License). |
|
518 |
|
519 To apply these terms, attach the following notices to the library. It is |
|
520 safest to attach them to the start of each source file to most effectively |
|
521 convey the exclusion of warranty; and each file should have at least the |
|
522 "copyright" line and a pointer to where the full notice is found. |
|
523 |
|
524 one line to give the library's name and an idea of what it does. |
|
525 Copyright (C) year name of author |
|

|
527 This library is free software; you can redistribute it and/or |
|
528 modify it under the terms of the GNU Lesser General Public |
|
529 License as published by the Free Software Foundation; either |
|
530 version 2.1 of the License, or (at your option) any later version. |
|
531 |
|
532 This library is distributed in the hope that it will be useful, |
|
533 but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of |
|
534 MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. See the GNU |
|
535 Lesser General Public License for more details. |
|
536 |
|
537 You should have received a copy of the GNU Lesser General Public |
|
538 License along with this library; if not, write to the Free Software |
|
539 Foundation, Inc., 51 Franklin Street, Fifth Floor, Boston, MA 02110-1301 USA |
|
540 |
|
541 Also add information on how to contact you by electronic and paper mail. |
|
542 |
|
543 You should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer) or your |
|
544 school, if any, to sign a "copyright disclaimer" for the library, if |
|
545 necessary. Here is a sample; alter the names: |
|
546 |
|
547 Yoyodyne, Inc., hereby disclaims all copyright interest in the |
|
548 library `Frob' (a library for tweaking knobs) written by James Random Hacker. |
