Preamble
The licenses for most software are designed to take away
your freedom to share and change it.
By contrast, the GNU
General Public Licenses are intended to guarantee your
freedom to share and change free software--to make sure
the software is free for all its users.
This license, the Lesser General Public License, applies to
some specially
designated software packages--typically
libraries--of the
Free Software Foundation and other authors
who decide to use it.
You can use it too, but we suggest you
first
think carefully about whether this license or the ordi-
nary General Public License is the better strategy to use in
any particular case, based on the explanations below.
When
we speak of free software, we are referring to free-
dom of use, not price. Our General Public Licenses are
de-
signed 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 and use pieces of it in
new free programs; and that you are informed that you can
do these things.
To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that
forbid distributors to deny you these rights or to ask you to
surrender these rights. These restrictions translate to cer-
tain responsibilities
for you if you distribute copies of the
library or if you modify it.
For example, if you distribute copies of the library, whether
gratis or for a fee, you must give the recipients all the
rights that we gave you.
You must make sure that they, too,
receive or can get the source code. If you
link other code
with the library, you must provide complete object files to
the recipients,
so that they can relink them with the library
after making changes to the library and recompiling it. And
you must show them these terms
so they know their rights.
We protect your rights with a two-step method: (1) we copy-
right the library, and (2) we offer you this license, which
gives you legal permission to copy, distribute and/or modify
the library.
To protect each distributor, we want to make it very clear
that there is no warranty for the free library. Also, if the
library is modified by someone else and passed on, the
re-
cipients should know that what they have is not the original
version, so that the original author's reputation
will not be
affected by problems that might be introduced by others.
Finally,
software patents pose a constant threat to the
existence of any free program.
We wish to make sure that
a company cannot effectively restrict the users of a free
CD
