Software Notice

Open Source Software Notice
268
When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not price. Specifically, the
General Public License is designed to make sure that you have the freedom to give away
or sell copies of free software, 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 a 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 tell them 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.
The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and modification follow.
GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION
AND MODIFICATION
0. This License Agreement 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 work containing
the Program or a portion of it, either verbatim or with modifications. Each licensee is
addressed as "you".
1. 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 General Public License and to the absence of any warranty; and
give any other recipients of the Program a copy of this General Public License along with
the Program. You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy.
