76<p class="p1"><span class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>0. This License applies to any program or other work which contains</p>

85<p class="p2"><br></p>
86<p class="p1">Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are not</p>
87<p class="p1">covered by this License; they are outside its scope.<span class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>The act of</p>
88<p class="p1">running the Program is not restricted, and the output from the Program</p>
89<p class="p1">is covered only if its contents constitute a work based on the</p>
90<p class="p1">Program (independent of having been made by running the Program).</p>
91<p class="p1">Whether that is true depends on what the Program does.</p>
92<p class="p2"><br></p>
93<p class="p1"><span class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Program's</p>
94<p class="p1">source code as you receive it, in any medium, provided that you</p>
95<p class="p1">conspicuously and appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate</p>
96<p class="p1">copyright notice and disclaimer of warranty; keep intact all the</p>
97<p class="p1">notices that refer to this License and to the absence of any warranty;</p>
98<p class="p1">and give any other recipients of the Program a copy of this License</p>
99<p class="p1">along with the Program.</p>
100<p class="p2"><br></p>
101<p class="p1">You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy, and</p>
102<p class="p1">you may at your option offer warranty protection in exchange for a fee.</p>
103<p class="p2"><br></p>
104<p class="p1"><span class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>2. You may modify your copy or copies of the Program or any portion</p>
105<p class="p1">of it, thus forming a work based on the Program, and copy and</p>
106<p class="p1">distribute such modifications or work under the terms of Section 1</p>
107<p class="p1">above, provided that you also meet all of these conditions:</p>
108<p class="p2"><br></p>
109<p class="p1"><span class="Apple-converted-space">    </span>a) You must cause the modified files to carry prominent notices</p>
110<p class="p1"><span class="Apple-converted-space">    </span>stating that you changed the files and the date of any change.</p>
111<p class="p2"><br></p>
112<p class="p1"><span class="Apple-converted-space">    </span>b) You must cause any work that you distribute or publish, that in</p>
113<p class="p1"><span class="Apple-converted-space">    </span>whole or in part contains or is derived from the Program or any</p>
114<p class="p1"><span class="Apple-converted-space">    </span>part thereof, to be licensed as a whole at no charge to all third</p>
115<p class="p1"><span class="Apple-converted-space">    </span>parties under the terms of this License.</p>

117<p class="p1"><span class="Apple-converted-space">    </span>c) If the modified program normally reads commands interactively</p>
118<p class="p1"><span class="Apple-converted-space">    </span>when run, you must cause it, when started running for such</p>
119<p class="p1"><span class="Apple-converted-space">    </span>interactive use in the most ordinary way, to print or display an</p>
120<p class="p1"><span class="Apple-converted-space">    </span>announcement including an appropriate copyright notice and a</p>
121<p class="p1"><span class="Apple-converted-space">    </span>notice that there is no warranty (or else, saying that you provide</p>
122<p class="p1"><span class="Apple-converted-space">    </span>a warranty) and that users may redistribute the program under</p>
123<p class="p1"><span class="Apple-converted-space">    </span>these conditions, and telling the user how to view a copy of this</p>
124<p class="p1"><span class="Apple-converted-space">    </span>License.<span class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>(Exception: if the Program itself is interactive but</p>
125<p class="p1"><span class="Apple-converted-space">    </span>does not normally print such an announcement, your work based on</p>

127<p class="p2"><br></p>
128<p class="p1">These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole.<span class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>If</p>
129<p class="p1">identifiable sections of that work are not derived from the Program,</p>
130<p class="p1">and can be reasonably considered independent and separate works in</p>
131<p class="p1">themselves, then this License, and its terms, do not apply to those</p>
132<p class="p1">sections when you distribute them as separate works.<span class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>But when you</p>
133<p class="p1">distribute the same sections as part of a whole which is a work based</p>
134<p class="p1">on the Program, the distribution of the whole must be on the terms of</p>
135<p class="p1">this License, whose permissions for other licensees extend to the</p>
136<p class="p1">entire whole, and thus to each and every part regardless of who wrote it.</p>
137<p class="p2"><br></p>
138<p class="p1">Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest</p>
139<p class="p1">your rights to work written entirely by you; rather, the intent is to</p>
140<p class="p1">exercise the right to control the distribution of derivative or</p>
141<p class="p1">collective works based on the Program.</p>
142<p class="p2"><br></p>
143<p class="p1">In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the Program</p>
144<p class="p1">with the Program (or with a work based on the Program) on a volume of</p>
145<p class="p1">a storage or distribution medium does not bring the other work under</p>
146<p class="p1">the scope of this License.</p>
147<p class="p2"><br></p>
148<p class="p1"><span class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>3. You may copy and distribute the Program (or a work based on it,</p>
149<p class="p1">under Section 2) in object code or executable form under the terms of</p>
150<p class="p1">Sections 1 and 2 above provided that you also do one of the following:</p>

154<p class="p1"><span class="Apple-converted-space">    </span>1 and 2 above on a medium customarily used for software interchange; or,</p>
155<p class="p2"><br></p>
156<p class="p1"><span class="Apple-converted-space">    </span>b) Accompany it with a written offer, valid for at least three</p>
157<p class="p1"><span class="Apple-converted-space">    </span>years, to give any third party, for a charge no more than your</p>
158<p class="p1"><span class="Apple-converted-space">    </span>cost of physically performing source distribution, a complete</p>
159<p class="p1"><span class="Apple-converted-space">    </span>machine-readable copy of the corresponding source code, to be</p>
160<p class="p1"><span class="Apple-converted-space">    </span>distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium</p>
161<p class="p1"><span class="Apple-converted-space">    </span>customarily used for software interchange; or,</p>
162<p class="p2"><br></p>
163<p class="p1"><span class="Apple-converted-space">    </span>c) Accompany it with the information you received as to the offer</p>
164<p class="p1"><span class="Apple-converted-space">    </span>to distribute corresponding source code.<span class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>(This alternative is</p>
165<p class="p1"><span class="Apple-converted-space">    </span>allowed only for noncommercial distribution and only if you</p>
166<p class="p1"><span class="Apple-converted-space">    </span>received the program in object code or executable form with such</p>
167<p class="p1"><span class="Apple-converted-space">    </span>an offer, in accord with Subsection b above.)</p>
168<p class="p2"><br></p>
169<p class="p1">The source code for a work means the preferred form of the work for</p>
170<p class="p1">making modifications to it.<span class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>For an executable work, complete source</p>
171<p class="p1">code means all the source code for all modules it contains, plus any</p>
172<p class="p1">associated interface definition files, plus the scripts used to</p>
173<p class="p1">control compilation and installation of the executable.<span class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>However, as a</p>
174<p class="p1">special exception, the source code distributed need not include</p>
175<p class="p1">anything that is normally distributed (in either source or binary</p>
176<p class="p1">form) with the major components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of the</p>
177<p class="p1">operating system on which the executable runs, unless that component</p>
178<p class="p1">itself accompanies the executable.</p>
179<p class="p2"><br></p>
180<p class="p1">If distribution of executable or object code is made by offering</p>
181<p class="p1">access to copy from a designated place, then offering equivalent</p>
182<p class="p1">access to copy the source code from the same place counts as</p>
183<p class="p1">distribution of the source code, even though third parties are not</p>
184<p class="p1">compelled to copy the source along with the object code.</p>
185<p class="p2"><br></p>
186<p class="p1"><span class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>4. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the Program</p>
187<p class="p1">except as expressly provided under this License.<span class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>Any attempt</p>
188<p class="p1">otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense or distribute the Program is</p>
189<p class="p1">void, and will automatically terminate your rights under this License.</p>
190<p class="p1">However, parties who have received copies, or rights, from you under</p>
191<p class="p1">this License will not have their licenses terminated so long as such</p>

193<p class="p2"><br></p>
194<p class="p1"><span class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>5. You are not required to accept this License, since you have not</p>
195<p class="p1">signed it.<span class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>However, nothing else grants you permission to modify or</p>
196<p class="p1">distribute the Program or its derivative works.<span class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>These actions are</p>
197<p class="p1">prohibited by law if you do not accept this License.<span class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>Therefore, by</p>
198<p class="p1">modifying or distributing the Program (or any work based on the</p>
199<p class="p1">Program), you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so, and</p>
200<p class="p1">all its terms and conditions for copying, distributing or modifying</p>

202<p class="p2"><br></p>
203<p class="p1"><span class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>6. Each time you redistribute the Program (or any work based on the</p>
204<p class="p1">Program), the recipient automatically receives a license from the</p>

206<p class="p1">these terms and conditions.<span class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>You may not impose any further</p>
207<p class="p1">restrictions on the recipients' exercise of the rights granted herein.</p>

213<p class="p1">conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or</p>

219<p class="p1">license would not permit royalty-free redistribution of the Program by</p>
220<p class="p1">all those who receive copies directly or indirectly through you, then</p>
221<p class="p1">the only way you could satisfy both it and this License would be to</p>

223<p class="p2"><br></p>
224<p class="p1">If any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable under</p>
225<p class="p1">any particular circumstance, the balance of the section is intended to</p>

227<p class="p1">circumstances.</p>
228<p class="p2"><br></p>
229<p class="p1">It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe any</p>

236<p class="p1">system; it is up to the author/donor to decide if he or she is willing</p>
237<p class="p1">to distribute software through any other system and a licensee cannot</p>
238<p class="p1">impose that choice.</p>
239<p class="p2"><br></p>
240<p class="p1">This section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is believed to</p>
