Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies of this
|
|

license document, but changing it is not allowed.

Preamble
|
|
10 |
|
|
11 |
The GNU Affero General Public License is a free, copyleft license for
|
|
12 |
software and other kinds of works, specifically designed to ensure
|
|
13 |
cooperation with the community in the case of network server software.
|
|
14 |
|
|
15 |
The licenses for most software and other practical works are designed to
|
|
16 |
take away your freedom to share and change the works. By contrast, our
|
|
17 |
General Public Licenses are intended to guarantee your freedom to share and
|
|
18 |
change all versions of a program--to make sure it remains free software for
|
|
19 |
all its users.
|
|
20 |
|
|
21 |
When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not price. Our
|
|
22 |
General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that you have the freedom
|
|
23 |
to distribute copies of free software (and charge for them if you wish),
|
|
24 |
that you receive source code or can get it if you want it, that you can
|
|
25 |
change the software or use pieces of it in new free programs, and that you
|
|
26 |
know you can do these things.
|
|
27 |
|
|
28 |
Developers that use our General Public Licenses protect your rights with
|
|
29 |
two steps: (1) assert copyright on the software, and (2) offer you this
|
|
30 |
License which gives you legal permission to copy, distribute and/or modify
|
|
31 |
the software.
|
|
32 |
|
|
33 |
A secondary benefit of defending all users' freedom is that improvements
|
|
34 |
made in alternate versions of the program, if they receive widespread use,
|
|
35 |
become available for other developers to incorporate. Many developers of
|
|
36 |
free software are heartened and encouraged by the resulting cooperation.
|
|
37 |
However, in the case of software used on network servers, this result may
|
|
38 |
fail to come about. The GNU General Public License permits making a
|
|
39 |
modified version and letting the public access it on a server without ever
|
|
40 |
releasing its source code to the public.
|
|
41 |
|
|
42 |
The GNU Affero General Public License is designed specifically to ensure
|
|
43 |
that, in such cases, the modified source code becomes available to the
|
|
44 |
community. It requires the operator of a network server to provide the
|
|
45 |
source code of the modified version running there to the users of that
|
|
46 |
server. Therefore, public use of a modified version, on a publicly
|
|
47 |
accessible server, gives the public access to the source code of the
|
|
48 |
modified version.
|
|
49 |
|
|
50 |
An older license, called the Affero General Public License and published by
|
|
51 |
Affero, was designed to accomplish similar goals. This is a different
|
|
52 |
license, not a version of the Affero GPL, but Affero has released a new
|
|
53 |
version of the Affero GPL which permits relicensing under this license.
|
|
54 |
|
|
55 |
The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and modification
|
|
56 |
follow.
|
|
57 |
|
|
58 |
TERMS AND CONDITIONS
|
|
59 |
|
|
60 |
0. Definitions.
|
|
61 |
|
|
62 |
"This License" refers to version 3 of the GNU Affero General Public
|
|
63 |
License.
|
|
64 |
|
|
65 |
"Copyright" also means copyright-like laws that apply to other kinds of
|
|
66 |
works, such as semiconductor masks.
|
|
67 |
|
|
68 |
"The Program" refers to any copyrightable work licensed under this License.
|
|
69 |
Each licensee is addressed as "you". "Licensees" and "recipients" may be
|
|
70 |
individuals or organizations.
|
|
71 |
|
|
72 |
To "modify" a work means to copy from or adapt all or part of the work in a
|
|
73 |
fashion requiring copyright permission, other than the making of an exact
|
|
74 |
copy. The resulting work is called a "modified version" of the earlier work
|
|
75 |
or a work "based on" the earlier work.
|
|
76 |
|
|
77 |
A "covered work" means either the unmodified Program or a work based on the
|
|
78 |
Program.
|
|
79 |
|
|
80 |
To "propagate" a work means to do anything with it that, without
|
|
81 |
permission, would make you directly or secondarily liable for infringement
|
|
82 |
under applicable copyright law, except executing it on a computer or
|
|
83 |
modifying a private copy. Propagation includes copying, distribution (with
|
|
84 |
or without modification), making available to the public, and in some
|
|
85 |
countries other activities as well.
|
|
86 |
|
|
87 |
To "convey" a work means any kind of propagation that enables other parties
|
|
88 |
to make or receive copies. Mere interaction with a user through a computer
|
|
89 |
network, with no transfer of a copy, is not conveying.
|
|
90 |
|
|
91 |
An interactive user interface displays "Appropriate Legal Notices" to the
|
|
92 |
extent that it includes a convenient and prominently visible feature that
|
|
93 |
(1) displays an appropriate copyright notice, and (2) tells the user that
|
|
94 |
there is no warranty for the work (except to the extent that warranties are
|
|
95 |
provided), that licensees may convey the work under this License, and how
|
|
96 |
to view a copy of this License. If the interface presents a list of user
|
|
97 |
commands or options, such as a menu, a prominent item in the list meets
|
|
98 |
this criterion.
|
|
99 |
|
|
100 |
1. Source Code.
|
|
101 |
|
|
102 |
The "source code" for a work means the preferred form of the work for
|
|
103 |
making modifications to it. "Object code" means any non-source form of a
|
|
104 |
work.
|
|
105 |
|
|
106 |
A "Standard Interface" means an interface that either is an official
|
|
107 |
standard defined by a recognized standards body, or, in the case of
|
|
108 |
interfaces specified for a particular programming language, one that is
|
|
109 |
widely used among developers working in that language.
|
|
110 |
|
|
111 |
The "System Libraries" of an executable work include anything, other than
|
|
112 |
the work as a whole, that (a) is included in the normal form of packaging a
|
|
113 |
Major Component, but which is not part of that Major Component, and (b)
|
|
114 |
serves only to enable use of the work with that Major Component, or to
|
|
115 |
implement a Standard Interface for which an implementation is available to
|
|
116 |
the public in source code form. A "Major Component", in this context, means
|
|
117 |
a major essential component (kernel, window system, and so on) of the
|
|
118 |
specific operating system (if any) on which the executable work runs, or a
|
|
119 |
compiler used to produce the work, or an object code interpreter used to
|
|
120 |
run it.
|
|
121 |
|
|
122 |
The "Corresponding Source" for a work in object code form means all the
|
|
123 |
source code needed to generate, install, and (for an executable work) run
|
|
124 |
the object code and to modify the work, including scripts to control those
|
|
125 |
activities. However, it does not include the work's System Libraries, or
|
|
126 |
general-purpose tools or generally available free programs which are used
|
|
127 |
unmodified in performing those activities but which are not part of the
|
|
128 |
work. For example, Corresponding Source includes interface definition files
|
|
129 |
associated with source files for the work, and the source code for shared
|
|
130 |
libraries and dynamically linked subprograms that the work is specifically
|
|
131 |
designed to require, such as by intimate data communication or control flow
|
|
132 |
between those subprograms and other parts of the work.
|
|
133 |
|
|
134 |
The Corresponding Source need not include anything that users can
|
|
135 |
regenerate automatically from other parts of the Corresponding Source.
|
|
136 |
|
|
137 |
The Corresponding Source for a work in source code form is that same work.
|
|
138 |
|
|
139 |
2. Basic Permissions.
|
|
140 |
|
|
141 |
All rights granted under this License are granted for the term of copyright
|
|
142 |
on the Program, and are irrevocable provided the stated conditions are met.
|
|
143 |
This License explicitly affirms your unlimited permission to run the
|
|
144 |
unmodified Program. The output from running a covered work is covered by
|
|
145 |
this License only if the output, given its content, constitutes a covered
|
|
146 |
work. This License acknowledges your rights of fair use or other
|
|
147 |
equivalent, as provided by copyright law.
|
|
148 |
|
|
149 |
You may make, run and propagate covered works that you do not convey,
|
|
150 |
without conditions so long as your license otherwise remains in force. You
|
|
151 |
may convey covered works to others for the sole purpose of having them make
|
|
152 |
modifications exclusively for you, or provide you with facilities for
|
|
153 |
running those works, provided that you comply with the terms of this
|
|
154 |
License in conveying all material for which you do not control copyright.
|
|
155 |
Those thus making or running the covered works for you must do so
|
|
156 |
exclusively on your behalf, under your direction and control, on terms that
|
|
157 |
prohibit them from making any copies of your copyrighted material outside
|
|
158 |
their relationship with you.
|
|
159 |
|
|
160 |
Conveying under any other circumstances is permitted solely under the
|
|
161 |
conditions stated below. Sublicensing is not allowed; section 10 makes it
|
|
162 |
unnecessary.
|
|
163 |
|
|
164 |
3. Protecting Users' Legal Rights From Anti-Circumvention Law.
|
|
165 |
|
|
166 |
No covered work shall be deemed part of an effective technological measure
|
|
167 |
under any applicable law fulfilling obligations under article 11 of the
|
|
168 |
WIPO copyright treaty adopted on 20 December 1996, or similar laws
|
|
169 |
prohibiting or restricting circumvention of such measures.
|
|
170 |
|
|
171 |
When you convey a covered work, you waive any legal power to forbid
|
|
172 |
circumvention of technological measures to the extent such circumvention is
|
|
173 |
effected by exercising rights under this License with respect to the
|
|
174 |
covered work, and you disclaim any intention to limit operation or
|
|
175 |
modification of the work as a means of enforcing, against the work's users,
|
|
176 |
your or third parties' legal rights to forbid circumvention of
|
|
177 |
technological measures.
|
|
178 |
|
|
179 |
4. Conveying Verbatim Copies.
|
|
180 |
|
|
181 |
You may convey verbatim copies of the Program's source code as you receive
|
|
182 |
it, in any medium, provided that you conspicuously and appropriately
|
|
183 |
publish on each copy an appropriate copyright notice; keep intact all
|
|
184 |
notices stating that this License and any non-permissive terms added in
|
|
185 |
accord with section 7 apply to the code; keep intact all notices of the
|
|
186 |
absence of any warranty; and give all recipients a copy of this License
|
|
187 |
along with the Program.
|
|
188 |
|
|
189 |
You may charge any price or no price for each copy that you convey, and you
|
|
190 |
may offer support or warranty protection for a fee.
|
|
191 |
|
|
192 |
5. Conveying Modified Source Versions.
|
|
193 |
|
|
194 |
You may convey a work based on the Program, or the modifications to produce
|
|
195 |
it from the Program, in the form of source code under the terms of section
|
|
196 |
4, provided that you also meet all of these conditions:
|
|
197 |
|
|
198 |
• a) The work must carry prominent notices stating that you modified it,
|
|
199 |
and giving a relevant date.
|
|
200 |
• b) The work must carry prominent notices stating that it is released
|
|
201 |
under this License and any conditions added under section 7. This
|
|
202 |
requirement modifies the requirement in section 4 to "keep intact all
|
|
203 |
notices".
|
|
204 |
• c) You must license the entire work, as a whole, under this License to
|
|
205 |
anyone who comes into possession of a copy. This License will therefore
|
|
206 |
apply, along with any applicable section 7 additional terms, to the
|
|
207 |
whole of the work, and all its parts, regardless of how they are
|
|
208 |
packaged. This License gives no permission to license the work in any
|
|
209 |
other way, but it does not invalidate such permission if you have
|
|
210 |
separately received it.
|
|
211 |
• d) If the work has interactive user interfaces, each must display
|
|
212 |
Appropriate Legal Notices; however, if the Program has interactive
|
|
213 |
interfaces that do not display Appropriate Legal Notices, your work
|
|
214 |
need not make them do so.
|
|
215 |
|
|
216 |
A compilation of a covered work with other separate and independent works,
|
|
217 |
which are not by their nature extensions of the covered work, and which are
|
|
218 |
not combined with it such as to form a larger program, in or on a volume of
|
|
219 |
a storage or distribution medium, is called an "aggregate" if the
|
|
220 |
compilation and its resulting copyright are not used to limit the access or
|
|
221 |
legal rights of the compilation's users beyond what the individual works
|
|
222 |
permit. Inclusion of a covered work in an aggregate does not cause this
|
|
223 |
License to apply to the other parts of the aggregate.
|
|
224 |
|
|
225 |
6. Conveying Non-Source Forms.
|
|
226 |
|
|
227 |
You may convey a covered work in object code form under the terms of
|
|
228 |
sections 4 and 5, provided that you also convey the machine-readable
|
|
229 |
Corresponding Source under the terms of this License, in one of these ways:
|
|
230 |
|
|
231 |
• a) Convey the object code in, or embodied in, a physical product
|
|
232 |
(including a physical distribution medium), accompanied by the
|
|
233 |
Corresponding Source fixed on a durable physical medium customarily
|
|
234 |
used for software interchange.
|
|
235 |
• b) Convey the object code in, or embodied in, a physical product
|
|
236 |
(including a physical distribution medium), accompanied by a written
|
|
237 |
offer, valid for at least three years and valid for as long as you
|
|
238 |
offer spare parts or customer support for that product model, to give
|
|
239 |
anyone who possesses the object code either (1) a copy of the
|
|
240 |
Corresponding Source for all the software in the product that is
|
|
241 |
covered by this License, on a durable physical medium customarily used
|
|
242 |
for software interchange, for a price no more than your reasonable cost
|
|
243 |
of physically performing this conveying of source, or (2) access to
|
|
244 |
copy the Corresponding Source from a network server at no charge.
|
|
245 |
• c) Convey individual copies of the object code with a copy of the
|
|
246 |
written offer to provide the Corresponding Source. This alternative is
|
|
247 |
allowed only occasionally and noncommercially, and only if you received
|
|
248 |
the object code with such an offer, in accord with subsection 6b.
|
|
249 |
• d) Convey the object code by offering access from a designated place
|
|
250 |
(gratis or for a charge), and offer equivalent access to the
|
|
251 |
Corresponding Source in the same way through the same place at no
|
|
252 |
further charge. You need not require recipients to copy the
|
|
253 |
Corresponding Source along with the object code. If the place to copy
|
|
254 |
the object code is a network server, the Corresponding Source may be on
|
|
255 |
a different server (operated by you or a third party) that supports
|
|
256 |
equivalent copying facilities, provided you maintain clear directions
|
|
257 |
next to the object code saying where to find the Corresponding Source.
|
|
258 |
Regardless of what server hosts the Corresponding Source, you remain
|
|
259 |
obligated to ensure that it is available for as long as needed to
|
|
260 |
satisfy these requirements.
|
|
261 |
• e) Convey the object code using peer-to-peer transmission, provided you
|
|
262 |
inform other peers where the object code and Corresponding Source of
|
|
263 |
the work are being offered to the general public at no charge under
|
|
264 |
subsection 6d.
|
|
265 |
|
|
266 |
A separable portion of the object code, whose source code is excluded from
|
|
267 |
the Corresponding Source as a System Library, need not be included in
|
|
268 |
conveying the object code work.
|
|
269 |
|
|
270 |
A "User Product" is either (1) a "consumer product", which means any
|
|
271 |
tangible personal property which is normally used for personal, family, or
|
|
272 |
household purposes, or (2) anything designed or sold for incorporation into
|
|
273 |
a dwelling. In determining whether a product is a consumer product,
|
|
274 |
doubtful cases shall be resolved in favor of coverage. For a particular
|
|
275 |
product received by a particular user, "normally used" refers to a typical
|
|
276 |
or common use of that class of product, regardless of the status of the
|
|
277 |
particular user or of the way in which the particular user actually uses,
|
|
278 |
or expects or is expected to use, the product. A product is a consumer
|
|
279 |
product regardless of whether the product has substantial commercial,
|
|
280 |
industrial or non-consumer uses, unless such uses represent the only
|
|
281 |
significant mode of use of the product.
|
|
282 |
|
|
283 |
"Installation Information" for a User Product means any methods,
|
|
284 |
procedures, authorization keys, or other information required to install
|
|
285 |
and execute modified versions of a covered work in that User Product from a
|
|
286 |
modified version of its Corresponding Source. The information must suffice
|
|
287 |
to ensure that the continued functioning of the modified object code is in
|
|
288 |
no case prevented or interfered with solely because modification has been
|
|
289 |
made.
|
|
290 |
|
|
291 |
If you convey an object code work under this section in, or with, or
|
|
292 |
specifically for use in, a User Product, and the conveying occurs as part
|
|
293 |
of a transaction in which the right of possession and use of the User
|
|
294 |
Product is transferred to the recipient in perpetuity or for a fixed term
|
|
295 |
(regardless of how the transaction is characterized), the Corresponding
|
|
296 |
Source conveyed under this section must be accompanied by the Installation
|
|
297 |
Information. But this requirement does not apply if neither you nor any
|
|
298 |
third party retains the ability to install modified object code on the User
|
|
299 |
Product (for example, the work has been installed in ROM).
|
|
300 |
|
|
301 |
The requirement to provide Installation Information does not include a
|
|
302 |
requirement to continue to provide support service, warranty, or updates
|
|
303 |
for a work that has been modified or installed by the recipient, or for the
|
|
304 |
User Product in which it has been modified or installed. Access to a
|
|
305 |
network may be denied when the modification itself materially and adversely
|
|
306 |
affects the operation of the network or violates the rules and protocols
|
|
307 |
for communication across the network.
|
|
308 |
|
|
309 |
Corresponding Source conveyed, and Installation Information provided, in
|
|
310 |
accord with this section must be in a format that is publicly documented
|
|
311 |
(and with an implementation available to the public in source code form),
|
|
312 |
and must require no special password or key for unpacking, reading or
|
|
313 |
copying.
|
|
314 |
|
|
315 |
7. Additional Terms.
|
|
316 |
|
|
317 |
"Additional permissions" are terms that supplement the terms of this
|
|
318 |
License by making exceptions from one or more of its conditions. Additional
|
|
319 |
permissions that are applicable to the entire Program shall be treated as
|
|
320 |
though they were included in this License, to the extent that they are
|
|
321 |
valid under applicable law. If additional permissions apply only to part of
|
|
322 |
the Program, that part may be used separately under those permissions, but
|
|
323 |
the entire Program remains governed by this License without regard to the
|
|
324 |
additional permissions.
|
|
325 |
|
|
326 |
When you convey a copy of a covered work, you may at your option remove any
|
|
327 |
additional permissions from that copy, or from any part of it. (Additional
|
|
328 |
permissions may be written to require their own removal in certain cases
|
|
329 |
when you modify the work.) You may place additional permissions on
|
|
330 |
material, added by you to a covered work, for which you have or can give
|
|
331 |
appropriate copyright permission.
|
|
332 |
|
|
333 |
Notwithstanding any other provision of this License, for material you add
|
|
334 |
to a covered work, you may (if authorized by the copyright holders of that
|
|
335 |
material) supplement the terms of this License with terms:
|
|
336 |
|
|
337 |
• a) Disclaiming warranty or limiting liability differently from the
|
|
338 |
terms of sections 15 and 16 of this License; or
|
|
339 |
• b) Requiring preservation of specified reasonable legal notices or
|
|
340 |
author attributions in that material or in the Appropriate Legal
|
|
341 |
Notices displayed by works containing it; or
|
|
342 |
• c) Prohibiting misrepresentation of the origin of that material, or
|
|
343 |
requiring that modified versions of such material be marked in
|
|
344 |
reasonable ways as different from the original version; or
|
|
345 |
• d) Limiting the use for publicity purposes of names of licensors or
|
|
346 |
authors of the material; or
|
|
347 |
• e) Declining to grant rights under trademark law for use of some trade
|
|
348 |
names, trademarks, or service marks; or
|
|
349 |
• f) Requiring indemnification of licensors and authors of that material
|
|
350 |
by anyone who conveys the material (or modified versions of it) with
|
|
351 |
contractual assumptions of liability to the recipient, for any
|
|
352 |
liability that these contractual assumptions directly impose on those
|
|
353 |
licensors and authors.
|
|
354 |
|
|
355 |
All other non-permissive additional terms are considered "further
|
|
356 |
restrictions" within the meaning of section 10. If the Program as you
|
|
357 |
received it, or any part of it, contains a notice stating that it is
|
|
358 |
governed by this License along with a term that is a further restriction,
|
|
359 |
you may remove that term. If a license document contains a further
|
|
360 |
restriction but permits relicensing or conveying under this License, you
|
|
361 |
may add to a covered work material governed by the terms of that license
|
|
362 |
document, provided that the further restriction does not survive such
|
|
363 |
relicensing or conveying.
|
|
364 |
|
|
365 |
If you add terms to a covered work in accord with this section, you must
|
|
366 |
place, in the relevant source files, a statement of the additional terms
|
|
367 |
that apply to those files, or a notice indicating where to find the
|
|
368 |
applicable terms.
|
|
369 |
|
|
370 |
Additional terms, permissive or non-permissive, may be stated in the form
|
|
371 |
of a separately written license, or stated as exceptions; the above
|
|
372 |
requirements apply either way.
|
|
373 |
|
|
374 |
8. Termination.
|
|
375 |
|
|
376 |
You may not propagate or modify a covered work except as expressly provided
|
|
377 |
under this License. Any attempt otherwise to propagate or modify it is
|
|
378 |
void, and will automatically terminate your rights under this License
|
|
379 |
(including any patent licenses granted under the third paragraph of section
|
|
380 |
11).
|
|
381 |
|
|
382 |
However, if you cease all violation of this License, then your license from
|
|
383 |
a particular copyright holder is reinstated (a) provisionally, unless and
|
|
384 |
until the copyright holder explicitly and finally terminates your license,
|
|
385 |
and (b) permanently, if the copyright holder fails to notify you of the
|
|
386 |
violation by some reasonable means prior to 60 days after the cessation.
|
|
387 |
|
|
388 |
Moreover, your license from a particular copyright holder is reinstated
|
|
389 |
permanently if the copyright holder notifies you of the violation by some
|
|
390 |
reasonable means, this is the first time you have received notice of
|
|
391 |
violation of this License (for any work) from that copyright holder, and
|
|
392 |
you cure the violation prior to 30 days after your receipt of the notice.
|
|
393 |
|
|
394 |
Termination of your rights under this section does not terminate the
|
|
395 |
licenses of parties who have received copies or rights from you under this
|
|
396 |
License. If your rights have been terminated and not permanently
|
|
397 |
reinstated, you do not qualify to receive new licenses for the same
|
|
398 |
material under section 10.
|
|
399 |
|
|
400 |
9. Acceptance Not Required for Having Copies.
|
|
401 |
|
|
402 |
You are not required to accept this License in order to receive or run a
|
|
403 |
copy of the Program. Ancillary propagation of a covered work occurring
|
|
404 |
solely as a consequence of using peer-to-peer transmission to receive a
|
|
405 |
copy likewise does not require acceptance. However, nothing other than this
|
|
406 |
License grants you permission to propagate or modify any covered work.
|
|
407 |
These actions infringe copyright if you do not accept this License.
|
|
408 |
Therefore, by modifying or propagating a covered work, you indicate your
|
|
409 |
acceptance of this License to do so.
|
|
410 |
|
|
411 |
10. Automatic Licensing of Downstream Recipients.
|
|
412 |
|
|
413 |
Each time you convey a covered work, the recipient automatically receives a
|
|
414 |
license from the original licensors, to run, modify and propagate that
|
|
415 |
work, subject to this License. You are not responsible for enforcing
|
|
416 |
compliance by third parties with this License.
|
|
417 |
|
|
418 |
An "entity transaction" is a transaction transferring control of an
|
|
419 |
organization, or substantially all assets of one, or subdividing an
|
|
420 |
organization, or merging organizations. If propagation of a covered work
|
|
421 |
results from an entity transaction, each party to that transaction who
|
|
422 |
receives a copy of the work also receives whatever licenses to the work the
|
|
423 |
party's predecessor in interest had or could give under the previous
|
|
424 |
paragraph, plus a right to possession of the Corresponding Source of the
|
|
425 |
work from the predecessor in interest, if the predecessor has it or can get
|
|
426 |
it with reasonable efforts.
|
|
427 |
|
|
428 |
You may not impose any further restrictions on the exercise of the rights
|
|
429 |
granted or affirmed under this License. For example, you may not impose a
|
|
430 |
license fee, royalty, or other charge for exercise of rights granted under
|
|
431 |
this License, and you may not initiate litigation (including a cross-claim
|
|
432 |
or counterclaim in a lawsuit) alleging that any patent claim is infringed
|
|
433 |
by making, using, selling, offering for sale, or importing the Program or
|
|
434 |
any portion of it.
|
|
435 |
|
|
436 |
11. Patents.
|
|
437 |
|
|
438 |
A "contributor" is a copyright holder who authorizes use under this License
|
|
439 |
of the Program or a work on which the Program is based. The work thus
|
|
440 |
licensed is called the contributor's "contributor version".
|
|
441 |
|
|
442 |
A contributor's "essential patent claims" are all patent claims owned or
|
|
443 |
controlled by the contributor, whether already acquired or hereafter
|
|
444 |
acquired, that would be infringed by some manner, permitted by this
|
|
445 |
License, of making, using, or selling its contributor version, but do not
|
|
446 |
include claims that would be infringed only as a consequence of further
|
|
447 |
modification of the contributor version. For purposes of this definition,
|
|
448 |
"control" includes the right to grant patent sublicenses in a manner
|
|
449 |
consistent with the requirements of this License.
|
|
450 |
|
|
451 |
Each contributor grants you a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free patent
|
|
452 |
license under the contributor's essential patent claims, to make, use,
|
|
453 |
sell, offer for sale, import and otherwise run, modify and propagate the
|
|
454 |
contents of its contributor version.
|
|
455 |
|
|
456 |
In the following three paragraphs, a "patent license" is any express
|
|
457 |
agreement or commitment, however denominated, not to enforce a patent (such
|
|
458 |
as an express permission to practice a patent or covenant not to sue for
|
|
459 |
patent infringement). To "grant" such a patent license to a party means to
|
|
460 |
make such an agreement or commitment not to enforce a patent against the
|
|
461 |
party.
|
|
462 |
|
|
463 |
If you convey a covered work, knowingly relying on a patent license, and
|
|
464 |
the Corresponding Source of the work is not available for anyone to copy,
|
|
465 |
free of charge and under the terms of this License, through a publicly
|
|
466 |
available network server or other readily accessible means, then you must
|
|
467 |
either (1) cause the Corresponding Source to be so available, or (2)
|
|
468 |
arrange to deprive yourself of the benefit of the patent license for this
|
|
469 |
particular work, or (3) arrange, in a manner consistent with the
|
|
470 |
requirements of this License, to extend the patent license to downstream
|
|
471 |
recipients. "Knowingly relying" means you have actual knowledge that, but
|
|
472 |
for the patent license, your conveying the covered work in a country, or
|
|
473 |
your recipient's use of the covered work in a country, would infringe one
|
|
474 |
or more identifiable patents in that country that you have reason to
|
|
475 |
believe are valid.
|
|
476 |
|
|
477 |
If, pursuant to or in connection with a single transaction or arrangement,
|
|
478 |
you convey, or propagate by procuring conveyance of, a covered work, and
|
|
479 |
grant a patent license to some of the parties receiving the covered work
|
|
480 |
authorizing them to use, propagate, modify or convey a specific copy of the
|
|
481 |
covered work, then the patent license you grant is automatically extended
|
|
482 |
to all recipients of the covered work and works based on it.
|
|
483 |
|
|
484 |
A patent license is "discriminatory" if it does not include within the
|
|
485 |
scope of its coverage, prohibits the exercise of, or is conditioned on the
|
|
486 |
non-exercise of one or more of the rights that are specifically granted
|
|
487 |
under this License. You may not convey a covered work if you are a party to
|
|
488 |
an arrangement with a third party that is in the business of distributing
|
|
489 |
software, under which you make payment to the third party based on the
|
|
490 |
extent of your activity of conveying the work, and under which the third
|
|
491 |
party grants, to any of the parties who would receive the covered work from
|
|
492 |
you, a discriminatory patent license (a) in connection with copies of the
|
|
493 |
covered work conveyed by you (or copies made from those copies), or (b)
|
|
494 |
primarily for and in connection with specific products or compilations that
|
|
495 |
contain the covered work, unless you entered into that arrangement, or that
|
|
496 |
patent license was granted, prior to 28 March 2007.
|
|
497 |
|
|
498 |
Nothing in this License shall be construed as excluding or limiting any
|
|
499 |
implied license or other defenses to infringement that may otherwise be
|
|
500 |
available to you under applicable patent law.
|
|
501 |
|
|
502 |
12. No Surrender of Others' Freedom.
|
|
503 |
|
|
504 |
If conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or
|
|
505 |
otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not
|
|
506 |
excuse you from the conditions of this License. If you cannot convey a
|
|
507 |
covered work so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this
|
|
508 |
License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you may
|
|
509 |
not convey it at all. For example, if you agree to terms that obligate you
|
|
510 |
to collect a royalty for further conveying from those to whom you convey
|
|
511 |
the Program, the only way you could satisfy both those terms and this
|
|
512 |
License would be to refrain entirely from conveying the Program.
|
|
513 |
|
|
514 |
13. Remote Network Interaction; Use with the GNU General Public License.
|
|
515 |
|
|
516 |
Notwithstanding any other provision of this License, if you modify the
|
|
517 |
Program, your modified version must prominently offer all users interacting
|
|
518 |
with it remotely through a computer network (if your version supports such
|
|
519 |
interaction) an opportunity to receive the Corresponding Source of your
|
|
520 |
version by providing access to the Corresponding Source from a network
|
|
521 |
server at no charge, through some standard or customary means of
|
|
522 |
facilitating copying of software. This Corresponding Source shall include
|
|
523 |
the Corresponding Source for any work covered by version 3 of the GNU
|
|
524 |
General Public License that is incorporated pursuant to the following
|
|
525 |
paragraph.
|
|
526 |
|
|
527 |
Notwithstanding any other provision of this License, you have permission to
|
|
528 |
link or combine any covered work with a work licensed under version 3 of
|
|
529 |
the GNU General Public License into a single combined work, and to convey
|
|
530 |
the resulting work. The terms of this License will continue to apply to the
|
|
531 |
part which is the covered work, but the work with which it is combined will
|
|
532 |
remain governed by version 3 of the GNU General Public License.
|
|
533 |
|
|
534 |
14. Revised Versions of this License.
|
|
535 |
|
|
536 |
The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions of the
|
|
537 |
GNU Affero General Public License from time to time. Such new versions will
|
|
538 |
be similar in spirit to the present version, but may differ in detail to
|
|
539 |
address new problems or concerns.
|
|
540 |
|
|
541 |
Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the Program
|
|
542 |
specifies that a certain numbered version of the GNU Affero General Public
|
|
543 |
License "or any later version" applies to it, you have the option of
|
|
544 |
following the terms and conditions either of that numbered version or of
|
|
545 |
any later version published by the Free Software Foundation. If the Program
|
|
546 |
does not specify a version number of the GNU Affero General Public License,
|
|
547 |
you may choose any version ever published by the Free Software Foundation.
|
|
548 |
|
|
549 |
If the Program specifies that a proxy can decide which future versions of
|
|
550 |
the GNU Affero General Public License can be used, that proxy's public
|
|
551 |
statement of acceptance of a version permanently authorizes you to choose
|
|
552 |
that version for the Program.
|
|
553 |
|
|
554 |
Later license versions may give you additional or different permissions.
|
|
555 |
However, no additional obligations are imposed on any author or copyright
|
|
556 |
holder as a result of your choosing to follow a later version.
|
|
557 |
|
|
558 |
15. Disclaimer of Warranty.
|
|
559 |
|
|
560 |
THERE IS NO WARRANTY FOR THE PROGRAM, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE
|
|
561 |
LAW. EXCEPT WHEN OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS AND/OR
|
|
562 |
OTHER PARTIES PROVIDE THE PROGRAM "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND,
|
|
563 |
EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED
|
|
564 |
WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. THE
|
|
565 |
ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE PROGRAM IS WITH YOU.
|
|
566 |
SHOULD THE PROGRAM PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE COST OF ALL NECESSARY
|
|
567 |
SERVICING, REPAIR OR CORRECTION.
|
|
568 |
|
|
569 |
16. Limitation of Liability.
|
|
570 |
|
|
571 |
IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN WRITING WILL
|
|
572 |
ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MODIFIES AND/OR CONVEYS THE
|
|
573 |
PROGRAM AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES, INCLUDING ANY
|
|
574 |
GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THE
|
|
575 |
USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF
|
|
576 |
DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY YOU OR THIRD
|
|
577 |
PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF THE PROGRAM TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER PROGRAMS),
|
|
578 |
EVEN IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF
|
|
579 |
SUCH DAMAGES.
|
|
580 |
|
|
581 |
17. Interpretation of Sections 15 and 16.
|
|
582 |
|
|
583 |
If the disclaimer of warranty and limitation of liability provided above
|
|
584 |
cannot be given local legal effect according to their terms, reviewing
|
|
585 |
courts shall apply local law that most closely approximates an absolute
|
|
586 |
waiver of all civil liability in connection with the Program, unless a
|
|
587 |
warranty or assumption of liability accompanies a copy of the Program in
|
|
588 |
return for a fee.
|
|
589 |
|
|
590 |
END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS
|
|
591 |
|
|
592 |
How to Apply These Terms to Your New Programs
|
|
593 |
|
|
594 |
If you develop a new program, and you want it to be of the greatest
|
|
595 |
possible use to the public, the best way to achieve this is to make it free
|
|
596 |
software which everyone can redistribute and change under these terms.
|
|
597 |
|
|
598 |
To do so, attach the following notices to the program. It is safest to
|
|
599 |
attach them to the start of each source file to most effectively state the
|
|
600 |
exclusion of warranty; and each file should have at least the "copyright"
|
|
601 |
line and a pointer to where the full notice is found.
|
|
602 |
|
|
603 |
<one line to give the program's name and a brief idea of what it does.>
|
|
604 |
Copyright (C) <year> <name of author>
|
|
605 |
|
|
606 |
This program is free software: you can redistribute it and/or modify
|
|
607 |
it under the terms of the GNU Affero General Public License as
|
|
608 |
published by the Free Software Foundation, either version 3 of the
|
|
609 |
License, or (at your option) any later version.
|
|
610 |
|
|
611 |
This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful,
|
|
612 |
but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of
|
|
613 |
MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. See the
|
|
614 |
GNU Affero General Public License for more details.
|
|
615 |
|
|
616 |
You should have received a copy of the GNU Affero General Public License
|
|
617 |
along with this program. If not, see <http://www.gnu.org/licenses/>.
|
|
618 |
|
|
619 |
Also add information on how to contact you by electronic and paper mail.
|
|
620 |
|
|
621 |
If your software can interact with users remotely through a computer
|
|
622 |
network, you should also make sure that it provides a way for users to get
|
|
623 |
its source. For example, if your program is a web application, its
|
|
624 |
interface could display a "Source" link that leads users to an archive of
|
|
625 |
the code. There are many ways you could offer source, and different
|
|
626 |
solutions will be better for different programs; see section 13 for the
|
|
627 |
specific requirements.
|
|
628 |
|
|
629 |
You should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer) or school,
|
|
630 |
if any, to sign a "copyright disclaimer" for the program, if necessary. For
|
|
631 |
more information on this, and how to apply and follow the GNU AGPL, see <
|
