65                   GNU LESSER GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE
66                       Version 3, 29 June 2007
67
68 Copyright (C) 2007 Free Software Foundation, Inc. <http://fsf.org/>
69 Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies
70 of this license document, but changing it is not allowed.
71
72
73  This version of the GNU Lesser General Public License incorporates
74the terms and conditions of version 3 of the GNU General Public
75License, supplemented by the additional permissions listed below.
76
77  0. Additional Definitions.
78
79  As used herein, "this License" refers to version 3 of the GNU Lesser
80General Public License, and the "GNU GPL" refers to version 3 of the GNU
81General Public License.
82
83  "The Library" refers to a covered work governed by this License,
84other than an Application or a Combined Work as defined below.
85
86  An "Application" is any work that makes use of an interface provided
87by the Library, but which is not otherwise based on the Library.
88Defining a subclass of a class defined by the Library is deemed a mode
89of using an interface provided by the Library.
90
91  A "Combined Work" is a work produced by combining or linking an
92Application with the Library.  The particular version of the Library
93with which the Combined Work was made is also called the "Linked
94Version".
95
96  The "Minimal Corresponding Source" for a Combined Work means the
97Corresponding Source for the Combined Work, excluding any source code
98for portions of the Combined Work that, considered in isolation, are
99based on the Application, and not on the Linked Version.
100
101  The "Corresponding Application Code" for a Combined Work means the
102object code and/or source code for the Application, including any data
103and utility programs needed for reproducing the Combined Work from the
104Application, but excluding the System Libraries of the Combined Work.
105
106  1. Exception to Section 3 of the GNU GPL.
107
108  You may convey a covered work under sections 3 and 4 of this License
109without being bound by section 3 of the GNU GPL.
110
111  2. Conveying Modified Versions.
112
113  If you modify a copy of the Library, and, in your modifications, a
114facility refers to a function or data to be supplied by an Application
115that uses the facility (other than as an argument passed when the
116facility is invoked), then you may convey a copy of the modified
117version:
118
119   a) under this License, provided that you make a good faith effort to
120   ensure that, in the event an Application does not supply the
121   function or data, the facility still operates, and performs
122   whatever part of its purpose remains meaningful, or
123
124   b) under the GNU GPL, with none of the additional permissions of
125   this License applicable to that copy.
126
127  3. Object Code Incorporating Material from Library Header Files.
128
129  The object code form of an Application may incorporate material from
130a header file that is part of the Library.  You may convey such object
131code under terms of your choice, provided that, if the incorporated
132material is not limited to numerical parameters, data structure
133layouts and accessors, or small macros, inline functions and templates
134(ten or fewer lines in length), you do both of the following:
135
136   a) Give prominent notice with each copy of the object code that the
137   Library is used in it and that the Library and its use are
138   covered by this License.
139
140   b) Accompany the object code with a copy of the GNU GPL and this license
141   document.
142
143  4. Combined Works.
144
145  You may convey a Combined Work under terms of your choice that,
146taken together, effectively do not restrict modification of the
147portions of the Library contained in the Combined Work and reverse
148engineering for debugging such modifications, if you also do each of
149the following:
150
151   a) Give prominent notice with each copy of the Combined Work that
152   the Library is used in it and that the Library and its use are
153   covered by this License.
154
155   b) Accompany the Combined Work with a copy of the GNU GPL and this license
156   document.
157
158   c) For a Combined Work that displays copyright notices during
159   execution, include the copyright notice for the Library among
160   these notices, as well as a reference directing the user to the
161   copies of the GNU GPL and this license document.
162
163   d) Do one of the following:
164
165       0) Convey the Minimal Corresponding Source under the terms of this
166       License, and the Corresponding Application Code in a form
167       suitable for, and under terms that permit, the user to
168       recombine or relink the Application with a modified version of
169       the Linked Version to produce a modified Combined Work, in the
170       manner specified by section 6 of the GNU GPL for conveying
171       Corresponding Source.
172
173       1) Use a suitable shared library mechanism for linking with the
174       Library.  A suitable mechanism is one that (a) uses at run time
175       a copy of the Library already present on the user's computer
176       system, and (b) will operate properly with a modified version
177       of the Library that is interface-compatible with the Linked
178       Version.
179
180   e) Provide Installation Information, but only if you would otherwise
181   be required to provide such information under section 6 of the
182   GNU GPL, and only to the extent that such information is
183   necessary to install and execute a modified version of the
184   Combined Work produced by recombining or relinking the
185   Application with a modified version of the Linked Version. (If
186   you use option 4d0, the Installation Information must accompany
187   the Minimal Corresponding Source and Corresponding Application
188   Code. If you use option 4d1, you must provide the Installation
189   Information in the manner specified by section 6 of the GNU GPL
190   for conveying Corresponding Source.)
191
192  5. Combined Libraries.
193
194  You may place library facilities that are a work based on the
195Library side by side in a single library together with other library
196facilities that are not Applications and are not covered by this
197License, and convey such a combined library under terms of your
198choice, if you do both of the following:
199
200   a) Accompany the combined library with a copy of the same work based
201   on the Library, uncombined with any other library facilities,
202   conveyed under the terms of this License.
203
204   b) Give prominent notice with the combined library that part of it
205   is a work based on the Library, and explaining where to find the
206   accompanying uncombined form of the same work.
207
208  6. Revised Versions of the GNU Lesser General Public License.
209
210  The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions
211of the GNU Lesser General Public License from time to time. Such new
212versions will be similar in spirit to the present version, but may
213differ in detail to address new problems or concerns.
214
215  Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the
216Library as you received it specifies that a certain numbered version
217of the GNU Lesser General Public License "or any later version"
218applies to it, you have the option of following the terms and
219conditions either of that published version or of any later version
220published by the Free Software Foundation. If the Library as you
221received it does not specify a version number of the GNU Lesser
222General Public License, you may choose any version of the GNU Lesser
223General Public License ever published by the Free Software Foundation.
224
225  If the Library as you received it specifies that a proxy can decide
226whether future versions of the GNU Lesser General Public License shall
227apply, that proxy's public statement of acceptance of any version is
228permanent authorization for you to choose that version for the
229Library.

237
238                    GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE
239                       Version 3, 29 June 2007
240
241 Copyright (C) 2007 Free Software Foundation, Inc. <http://fsf.org/>
242 Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies
243 of this license document, but changing it is not allowed.
244
245                            Preamble
246
247  The GNU General Public License is a free, copyleft license for
248software and other kinds of works.
249
250  The licenses for most software and other practical works are designed
251to take away your freedom to share and change the works.  By contrast,
252the GNU General Public License is intended to guarantee your freedom to
253share and change all versions of a program--to make sure it remains free
254software for all its users.  We, the Free Software Foundation, use the
255GNU General Public License for most of our software; it applies also to
256any other work released this way by its authors.  You can apply it to
257your programs, too.
258
259  When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not
260price.  Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that you
261have the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge for
262them if you wish), that you receive source code or can get it if you
263want it, that you can change the software or use pieces of it in new
264free programs, and that you know you can do these things.
265
266  To protect your rights, we need to prevent others from denying you
267these rights or asking you to surrender the rights.  Therefore, you have
268certain responsibilities if you distribute copies of the software, or if
269you modify it: responsibilities to respect the freedom of others.
270
271  For example, if you distribute copies of such a program, whether
272gratis or for a fee, you must pass on to the recipients the same
273freedoms that you received.  You must make sure that they, too, receive
274or can get the source code.  And you must show them these terms so they
275know their rights.
276
277  Developers that use the GNU GPL protect your rights with two steps:
278(1) assert copyright on the software, and (2) offer you this License
279giving you legal permission to copy, distribute and/or modify it.
280
281  For the developers' and authors' protection, the GPL clearly explains
282that there is no warranty for this free software.  For both users' and
283authors' sake, the GPL requires that modified versions be marked as
284changed, so that their problems will not be attributed erroneously to
285authors of previous versions.
286
287  Some devices are designed to deny users access to install or run
288modified versions of the software inside them, although the manufacturer
289can do so.  This is fundamentally incompatible with the aim of
290protecting users' freedom to change the software.  The systematic
291pattern of such abuse occurs in the area of products for individuals to
292use, which is precisely where it is most unacceptable.  Therefore, we
293have designed this version of the GPL to prohibit the practice for those
294products.  If such problems arise substantially in other domains, we
295stand ready to extend this provision to those domains in future versions
296of the GPL, as needed to protect the freedom of users.
297
298  Finally, every program is threatened constantly by software patents.
299States should not allow patents to restrict development and use of
300software on general-purpose computers, but in those that do, we wish to
301avoid the special danger that patents applied to a free program could
302make it effectively proprietary.  To prevent this, the GPL assures that
303patents cannot be used to render the program non-free.
304
305  The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and
306modification follow.
307
308                       TERMS AND CONDITIONS
309
310  0. Definitions.
311
312  "This License" refers to version 3 of the GNU General Public License.
313
314  "Copyright" also means copyright-like laws that apply to other kinds of
315works, such as semiconductor masks.
316
317  "The Program" refers to any copyrightable work licensed under this
318License.  Each licensee is addressed as "you".  "Licensees" and
319"recipients" may be individuals or organizations.
320
321  To "modify" a work means to copy from or adapt all or part of the work
322in a fashion requiring copyright permission, other than the making of an
323exact copy.  The resulting work is called a "modified version" of the
324earlier work or a work "based on" the earlier work.
325
326  A "covered work" means either the unmodified Program or a work based
327on the Program.
328
329  To "propagate" a work means to do anything with it that, without
330permission, would make you directly or secondarily liable for
331infringement under applicable copyright law, except executing it on a
332computer or modifying a private copy.  Propagation includes copying,
333distribution (with or without modification), making available to the
334public, and in some countries other activities as well.
335
336  To "convey" a work means any kind of propagation that enables other
337parties to make or receive copies.  Mere interaction with a user through
338a computer network, with no transfer of a copy, is not conveying.
339
340  An interactive user interface displays "Appropriate Legal Notices"
341to the extent that it includes a convenient and prominently visible
342feature that (1) displays an appropriate copyright notice, and (2)
343tells the user that there is no warranty for the work (except to the
344extent that warranties are provided), that licensees may convey the
345work under this License, and how to view a copy of this License.  If
346the interface presents a list of user commands or options, such as a
347menu, a prominent item in the list meets this criterion.
348
349  1. Source Code.
350
351  The "source code" for a work means the preferred form of the work
352for making modifications to it.  "Object code" means any non-source
353form of a work.
354
355  A "Standard Interface" means an interface that either is an official
356standard defined by a recognized standards body, or, in the case of
357interfaces specified for a particular programming language, one that
358is widely used among developers working in that language.
359
360  The "System Libraries" of an executable work include anything, other
361than the work as a whole, that (a) is included in the normal form of
362packaging a Major Component, but which is not part of that Major
363Component, and (b) serves only to enable use of the work with that
364Major Component, or to implement a Standard Interface for which an
365implementation is available to the public in source code form.  A
366"Major Component", in this context, means a major essential component
367(kernel, window system, and so on) of the specific operating system
368(if any) on which the executable work runs, or a compiler used to
369produce the work, or an object code interpreter used to run it.
370
371  The "Corresponding Source" for a work in object code form means all
372the source code needed to generate, install, and (for an executable
373work) run the object code and to modify the work, including scripts to
374control those activities.  However, it does not include the work's
375System Libraries, or general-purpose tools or generally available free
376programs which are used unmodified in performing those activities but
377which are not part of the work.  For example, Corresponding Source
378includes interface definition files associated with source files for
379the work, and the source code for shared libraries and dynamically
380linked subprograms that the work is specifically designed to require,
381such as by intimate data communication or control flow between those
382subprograms and other parts of the work.
383
384  The Corresponding Source need not include anything that users
385can regenerate automatically from other parts of the Corresponding
386Source.
387
388  The Corresponding Source for a work in source code form is that
389same work.
390
391  2. Basic Permissions.
392
393  All rights granted under this License are granted for the term of
394copyright on the Program, and are irrevocable provided the stated
395conditions are met.  This License explicitly affirms your unlimited
396permission to run the unmodified Program.  The output from running a
397covered work is covered by this License only if the output, given its
398content, constitutes a covered work.  This License acknowledges your
399rights of fair use or other equivalent, as provided by copyright law.
400
401  You may make, run and propagate covered works that you do not
402convey, without conditions so long as your license otherwise remains
403in force.  You may convey covered works to others for the sole purpose
404of having them make modifications exclusively for you, or provide you
405with facilities for running those works, provided that you comply with
406the terms of this License in conveying all material for which you do
407not control copyright.  Those thus making or running the covered works
408for you must do so exclusively on your behalf, under your direction
409and control, on terms that prohibit them from making any copies of
410your copyrighted material outside their relationship with you.
411
412  Conveying under any other circumstances is permitted solely under
413the conditions stated below.  Sublicensing is not allowed; section 10
414makes it unnecessary.
415
416  3. Protecting Users' Legal Rights From Anti-Circumvention Law.
417
418  No covered work shall be deemed part of an effective technological
419measure under any applicable law fulfilling obligations under article
42011 of the WIPO copyright treaty adopted on 20 December 1996, or
421similar laws prohibiting or restricting circumvention of such
422measures.
423
424  When you convey a covered work, you waive any legal power to forbid
425circumvention of technological measures to the extent such circumvention
426is effected by exercising rights under this License with respect to
427the covered work, and you disclaim any intention to limit operation or
428modification of the work as a means of enforcing, against the work's
429users, your or third parties' legal rights to forbid circumvention of
430technological measures.
431
432  4. Conveying Verbatim Copies.
433
434  You may convey verbatim copies of the Program's source code as you
435receive it, in any medium, provided that you conspicuously and
436appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate copyright notice;
437keep intact all notices stating that this License and any
438non-permissive terms added in accord with section 7 apply to the code;
439keep intact all notices of the absence of any warranty; and give all
440recipients a copy of this License along with the Program.
441
442  You may charge any price or no price for each copy that you convey,
443and you may offer support or warranty protection for a fee.
444
445  5. Conveying Modified Source Versions.
446
447  You may convey a work based on the Program, or the modifications to
448produce it from the Program, in the form of source code under the
449terms of section 4, provided that you also meet all of these conditions:
450
451    a) The work must carry prominent notices stating that you modified
452    it, and giving a relevant date.
453
454    b) The work must carry prominent notices stating that it is
455    released under this License and any conditions added under section
456    7.  This requirement modifies the requirement in section 4 to
457    "keep intact all notices".
458
459    c) You must license the entire work, as a whole, under this
460    License to anyone who comes into possession of a copy.  This
461    License will therefore apply, along with any applicable section 7
462    additional terms, to the whole of the work, and all its parts,
463    regardless of how they are packaged.  This License gives no
464    permission to license the work in any other way, but it does not
465    invalidate such permission if you have separately received it.
466
467    d) If the work has interactive user interfaces, each must display
468    Appropriate Legal Notices; however, if the Program has interactive
469    interfaces that do not display Appropriate Legal Notices, your
470    work need not make them do so.
471
472  A compilation of a covered work with other separate and independent
473works, which are not by their nature extensions of the covered work,
474and which are not combined with it such as to form a larger program,
475in or on a volume of a storage or distribution medium, is called an
476"aggregate" if the compilation and its resulting copyright are not
477used to limit the access or legal rights of the compilation's users
478beyond what the individual works permit.  Inclusion of a covered work
479in an aggregate does not cause this License to apply to the other
480parts of the aggregate.
481
482  6. Conveying Non-Source Forms.
483
484  You may convey a covered work in object code form under the terms
485of sections 4 and 5, provided that you also convey the
486machine-readable Corresponding Source under the terms of this License,
487in one of these ways:
488
489    a) Convey the object code in, or embodied in, a physical product
490    (including a physical distribution medium), accompanied by the
491    Corresponding Source fixed on a durable physical medium
492    customarily used for software interchange.
493
494    b) Convey the object code in, or embodied in, a physical product
495    (including a physical distribution medium), accompanied by a
496    written offer, valid for at least three years and valid for as
497    long as you offer spare parts or customer support for that product
498    model, to give anyone who possesses the object code either (1) a
499    copy of the Corresponding Source for all the software in the
500    product that is covered by this License, on a durable physical
501    medium customarily used for software interchange, for a price no
502    more than your reasonable cost of physically performing this
503    conveying of source, or (2) access to copy the
504    Corresponding Source from a network server at no charge.
505
506    c) Convey individual copies of the object code with a copy of the
507    written offer to provide the Corresponding Source.  This
508    alternative is allowed only occasionally and noncommercially, and
509    only if you received the object code with such an offer, in accord
510    with subsection 6b.
511
512    d) Convey the object code by offering access from a designated
513    place (gratis or for a charge), and offer equivalent access to the
514    Corresponding Source in the same way through the same place at no
515    further charge.  You need not require recipients to copy the
516    Corresponding Source along with the object code.  If the place to
517    copy the object code is a network server, the Corresponding Source
518    may be on a different server (operated by you or a third party)
519    that supports equivalent copying facilities, provided you maintain
520    clear directions next to the object code saying where to find the
521    Corresponding Source.  Regardless of what server hosts the
522    Corresponding Source, you remain obligated to ensure that it is
523    available for as long as needed to satisfy these requirements.
524
525    e) Convey the object code using peer-to-peer transmission, provided
526    you inform other peers where the object code and Corresponding
527    Source of the work are being offered to the general public at no
528    charge under subsection 6d.
529
530  A separable portion of the object code, whose source code is excluded
531from the Corresponding Source as a System Library, need not be
532included in conveying the object code work.
533
534  A "User Product" is either (1) a "consumer product", which means any
535tangible personal property which is normally used for personal, family,
536or household purposes, or (2) anything designed or sold for incorporation
537into a dwelling.  In determining whether a product is a consumer product,
538doubtful cases shall be resolved in favor of coverage.  For a particular
539product received by a particular user, "normally used" refers to a
540typical or common use of that class of product, regardless of the status
541of the particular user or of the way in which the particular user
542actually uses, or expects or is expected to use, the product.  A product
543is a consumer product regardless of whether the product has substantial
544commercial, industrial or non-consumer uses, unless such uses represent
545the only significant mode of use of the product.
546
547  "Installation Information" for a User Product means any methods,
548procedures, authorization keys, or other information required to install
549and execute modified versions of a covered work in that User Product from
550a modified version of its Corresponding Source.  The information must
551suffice to ensure that the continued functioning of the modified object
552code is in no case prevented or interfered with solely because
553modification has been made.
554
555  If you convey an object code work under this section in, or with, or
556specifically for use in, a User Product, and the conveying occurs as
557part of a transaction in which the right of possession and use of the
558User Product is transferred to the recipient in perpetuity or for a
559fixed term (regardless of how the transaction is characterized), the
560Corresponding Source conveyed under this section must be accompanied
561by the Installation Information.  But this requirement does not apply
562if neither you nor any third party retains the ability to install
563modified object code on the User Product (for example, the work has
564been installed in ROM).
565
566  The requirement to provide Installation Information does not include a
567requirement to continue to provide support service, warranty, or updates
568for a work that has been modified or installed by the recipient, or for
569the User Product in which it has been modified or installed.  Access to a
570network may be denied when the modification itself materially and
571adversely affects the operation of the network or violates the rules and
572protocols for communication across the network.
573
574  Corresponding Source conveyed, and Installation Information provided,
575in accord with this section must be in a format that is publicly
576documented (and with an implementation available to the public in
577source code form), and must require no special password or key for
578unpacking, reading or copying.
579
580  7. Additional Terms.
581
582  "Additional permissions" are terms that supplement the terms of this
583License by making exceptions from one or more of its conditions.
584Additional permissions that are applicable to the entire Program shall
585be treated as though they were included in this License, to the extent
586that they are valid under applicable law.  If additional permissions
587apply only to part of the Program, that part may be used separately
588under those permissions, but the entire Program remains governed by
589this License without regard to the additional permissions.
590
591  When you convey a copy of a covered work, you may at your option
592remove any additional permissions from that copy, or from any part of
593it.  (Additional permissions may be written to require their own
594removal in certain cases when you modify the work.)  You may place
595additional permissions on material, added by you to a covered work,
596for which you have or can give appropriate copyright permission.
597
598  Notwithstanding any other provision of this License, for material you
599add to a covered work, you may (if authorized by the copyright holders of
600that material) supplement the terms of this License with terms:
601
602    a) Disclaiming warranty or limiting liability differently from the
603    terms of sections 15 and 16 of this License; or
604
605    b) Requiring preservation of specified reasonable legal notices or
606    author attributions in that material or in the Appropriate Legal
607    Notices displayed by works containing it; or
608
609    c) Prohibiting misrepresentation of the origin of that material, or
610    requiring that modified versions of such material be marked in
611    reasonable ways as different from the original version; or
612
613    d) Limiting the use for publicity purposes of names of licensors or
614    authors of the material; or
615
616    e) Declining to grant rights under trademark law for use of some
617    trade names, trademarks, or service marks; or
618
619    f) Requiring indemnification of licensors and authors of that
620    material by anyone who conveys the material (or modified versions of
621    it) with contractual assumptions of liability to the recipient, for
622    any liability that these contractual assumptions directly impose on
623    those licensors and authors.
624
625  All other non-permissive additional terms are considered "further
626restrictions" within the meaning of section 10.  If the Program as you
627received it, or any part of it, contains a notice stating that it is
628governed by this License along with a term that is a further
629restriction, you may remove that term.  If a license document contains
630a further restriction but permits relicensing or conveying under this
631License, you may add to a covered work material governed by the terms
632of that license document, provided that the further restriction does
633not survive such relicensing or conveying.
634
635  If you add terms to a covered work in accord with this section, you
636must place, in the relevant source files, a statement of the
637additional terms that apply to those files, or a notice indicating
638where to find the applicable terms.
639
640  Additional terms, permissive or non-permissive, may be stated in the
641form of a separately written license, or stated as exceptions;
642the above requirements apply either way.
643
644  8. Termination.
645
646  You may not propagate or modify a covered work except as expressly
647provided under this License.  Any attempt otherwise to propagate or
648modify it is void, and will automatically terminate your rights under
649this License (including any patent licenses granted under the third
650paragraph of section 11).
651
652  However, if you cease all violation of this License, then your
653license from a particular copyright holder is reinstated (a)
654provisionally, unless and until the copyright holder explicitly and
655finally terminates your license, and (b) permanently, if the copyright
656holder fails to notify you of the violation by some reasonable means
657prior to 60 days after the cessation.
658
659  Moreover, your license from a particular copyright holder is
660reinstated permanently if the copyright holder notifies you of the
661violation by some reasonable means, this is the first time you have
662received notice of violation of this License (for any work) from that
663copyright holder, and you cure the violation prior to 30 days after
664your receipt of the notice.
665
666  Termination of your rights under this section does not terminate the
667licenses of parties who have received copies or rights from you under
668this License.  If your rights have been terminated and not permanently
669reinstated, you do not qualify to receive new licenses for the same
670material under section 10.
671
672  9. Acceptance Not Required for Having Copies.
673
674  You are not required to accept this License in order to receive or
675run a copy of the Program.  Ancillary propagation of a covered work
676occurring solely as a consequence of using peer-to-peer transmission
677to receive a copy likewise does not require acceptance.  However,
678nothing other than this License grants you permission to propagate or
679modify any covered work.  These actions infringe copyright if you do
680not accept this License.  Therefore, by modifying or propagating a
681covered work, you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so.
682
683  10. Automatic Licensing of Downstream Recipients.
684
685  Each time you convey a covered work, the recipient automatically
686receives a license from the original licensors, to run, modify and
687propagate that work, subject to this License.  You are not responsible
688for enforcing compliance by third parties with this License.
689
690  An "entity transaction" is a transaction transferring control of an
691organization, or substantially all assets of one, or subdividing an
692organization, or merging organizations.  If propagation of a covered
693work results from an entity transaction, each party to that
694transaction who receives a copy of the work also receives whatever
695licenses to the work the party's predecessor in interest had or could
696give under the previous paragraph, plus a right to possession of the
697Corresponding Source of the work from the predecessor in interest, if
698the predecessor has it or can get it with reasonable efforts.
699
700  You may not impose any further restrictions on the exercise of the
701rights granted or affirmed under this License.  For example, you may
702not impose a license fee, royalty, or other charge for exercise of
703rights granted under this License, and you may not initiate litigation
704(including a cross-claim or counterclaim in a lawsuit) alleging that
705any patent claim is infringed by making, using, selling, offering for
706sale, or importing the Program or any portion of it.
707
708  11. Patents.
709
710  A "contributor" is a copyright holder who authorizes use under this
711License of the Program or a work on which the Program is based.  The
712work thus licensed is called the contributor's "contributor version".
713
714  A contributor's "essential patent claims" are all patent claims
715owned or controlled by the contributor, whether already acquired or
716hereafter acquired, that would be infringed by some manner, permitted
717by this License, of making, using, or selling its contributor version,
718but do not include claims that would be infringed only as a
719consequence of further modification of the contributor version.  For
720purposes of this definition, "control" includes the right to grant
721patent sublicenses in a manner consistent with the requirements of
722this License.
723
724  Each contributor grants you a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free
725patent license under the contributor's essential patent claims, to
726make, use, sell, offer for sale, import and otherwise run, modify and
727propagate the contents of its contributor version.
728
729  In the following three paragraphs, a "patent license" is any express
730agreement or commitment, however denominated, not to enforce a patent
731(such as an express permission to practice a patent or covenant not to
732sue for patent infringement).  To "grant" such a patent license to a
733party means to make such an agreement or commitment not to enforce a
734patent against the party.
735
736  If you convey a covered work, knowingly relying on a patent license,
737and the Corresponding Source of the work is not available for anyone
738to copy, free of charge and under the terms of this License, through a
739publicly available network server or other readily accessible means,
740then you must either (1) cause the Corresponding Source to be so
741available, or (2) arrange to deprive yourself of the benefit of the
742patent license for this particular work, or (3) arrange, in a manner
743consistent with the requirements of this License, to extend the patent
744license to downstream recipients.  "Knowingly relying" means you have
745actual knowledge that, but for the patent license, your conveying the
746covered work in a country, or your recipient's use of the covered work
747in a country, would infringe one or more identifiable patents in that
748country that you have reason to believe are valid.
749
750  If, pursuant to or in connection with a single transaction or
751arrangement, you convey, or propagate by procuring conveyance of, a
752covered work, and grant a patent license to some of the parties
753receiving the covered work authorizing them to use, propagate, modify
754or convey a specific copy of the covered work, then the patent license
755you grant is automatically extended to all recipients of the covered
756work and works based on it.
757
758  A patent license is "discriminatory" if it does not include within
759the scope of its coverage, prohibits the exercise of, or is
760conditioned on the non-exercise of one or more of the rights that are
761specifically granted under this License.  You may not convey a covered
762work if you are a party to an arrangement with a third party that is
763in the business of distributing software, under which you make payment
764to the third party based on the extent of your activity of conveying
765the work, and under which the third party grants, to any of the
766parties who would receive the covered work from you, a discriminatory
767patent license (a) in connection with copies of the covered work
768conveyed by you (or copies made from those copies), or (b) primarily
769for and in connection with specific products or compilations that
770contain the covered work, unless you entered into that arrangement,
771or that patent license was granted, prior to 28 March 2007.
772
773  Nothing in this License shall be construed as excluding or limiting
774any implied license or other defenses to infringement that may
775otherwise be available to you under applicable patent law.
776
777  12. No Surrender of Others' Freedom.
778
779  If conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or
780otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not
781excuse you from the conditions of this License.  If you cannot convey a
782covered work so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this
783License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you may
784not convey it at all.  For example, if you agree to terms that obligate you
785to collect a royalty for further conveying from those to whom you convey
786the Program, the only way you could satisfy both those terms and this
787License would be to refrain entirely from conveying the Program.
788
789  13. Use with the GNU Affero General Public License.
790
791  Notwithstanding any other provision of this License, you have
792permission to link or combine any covered work with a work licensed
793under version 3 of the GNU Affero General Public License into a single
794combined work, and to convey the resulting work.  The terms of this
795License will continue to apply to the part which is the covered work,
796but the special requirements of the GNU Affero General Public License,
797section 13, concerning interaction through a network will apply to the
798combination as such.
799
800  14. Revised Versions of this License.
801
802  The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions of
803the GNU General Public License from time to time.  Such new versions will
804be similar in spirit to the present version, but may differ in detail to
805address new problems or concerns.
806
807  Each version is given a distinguishing version number.  If the
808Program specifies that a certain numbered version of the GNU General
809Public License "or any later version" applies to it, you have the
810option of following the terms and conditions either of that numbered
811version or of any later version published by the Free Software
812Foundation.  If the Program does not specify a version number of the
813GNU General Public License, you may choose any version ever published
814by the Free Software Foundation.
815
816  If the Program specifies that a proxy can decide which future
817versions of the GNU General Public License can be used, that proxy's
818public statement of acceptance of a version permanently authorizes you
819to choose that version for the Program.
820
821  Later license versions may give you additional or different
822permissions.  However, no additional obligations are imposed on any
823author or copyright holder as a result of your choosing to follow a
824later version.
825
826  15. Disclaimer of Warranty.
827
828  THERE IS NO WARRANTY FOR THE PROGRAM, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY
829APPLICABLE LAW.  EXCEPT WHEN OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT
830HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER PARTIES PROVIDE THE PROGRAM "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY
831OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO,
832THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR
833PURPOSE.  THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE PROGRAM
834IS WITH YOU.  SHOULD THE PROGRAM PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE COST OF
835ALL NECESSARY SERVICING, REPAIR OR CORRECTION.
836
837  16. Limitation of Liability.
838
839  IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN WRITING
840WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MODIFIES AND/OR CONVEYS
841THE PROGRAM AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES, INCLUDING ANY
842GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THE
843USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF
844DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY YOU OR THIRD
845PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF THE PROGRAM TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER PROGRAMS),
846EVEN IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF
847SUCH DAMAGES.
848
849  17. Interpretation of Sections 15 and 16.
850
851  If the disclaimer of warranty and limitation of liability provided
852above cannot be given local legal effect according to their terms,
853reviewing courts shall apply local law that most closely approximates
854an absolute waiver of all civil liability in connection with the
855Program, unless a warranty or assumption of liability accompanies a
856copy of the Program in return for a fee.
857
858                     END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS
859
860            How to Apply These Terms to Your New Programs
861
862  If you develop a new program, and you want it to be of the greatest
863possible use to the public, the best way to achieve this is to make it
864free software which everyone can redistribute and change under these terms.
865
866  To do so, attach the following notices to the program.  It is safest
867to attach them to the start of each source file to most effectively
868state the exclusion of warranty; and each file should have at least
869the "copyright" line and a pointer to where the full notice is found.
870
871    <one line to give the program's name and a brief idea of what it does.>
872    Copyright (C) <year>  <name of author>
873
874    This program is free software: you can redistribute it and/or modify
875    it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by
876    the Free Software Foundation, either version 3 of the License, or
877    (at your option) any later version.
878
879    This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful,
880    but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of
881    MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.  See the
882    GNU General Public License for more details.
883
884    You should have received a copy of the GNU General Public License
885    along with this program.  If not, see <http://www.gnu.org/licenses/>.
886
887Also add information on how to contact you by electronic and paper mail.
888
889  If the program does terminal interaction, make it output a short
890notice like this when it starts in an interactive mode:
891
892    <program>  Copyright (C) <year>  <name of author>
893    This program comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY; for details type `show w'.
894    This is free software, and you are welcome to redistribute it
895    under certain conditions; type `show c' for details.
896
897The hypothetical commands `show w' and `show c' should show the appropriate
898parts of the General Public License.  Of course, your program's commands
899might be different; for a GUI interface, you would use an "about box".
900
901  You should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer) or school,
902if any, to sign a "copyright disclaimer" for the program, if necessary.
903For more information on this, and how to apply and follow the GNU GPL, see
904<http://www.gnu.org/licenses/>.
905
906  The GNU General Public License does not permit incorporating your program
907into proprietary programs.  If your program is a subroutine library, you
908may consider it more useful to permit linking proprietary applications with
909the library.  If this is what you want to do, use the GNU Lesser General
910Public License instead of this License.  But first, please read
911<http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/why-not-lgpl.html>.

919CeCILL FREE SOFTWARE LICENSE AGREEMENT
920
921
922    Notice
923
924This Agreement is a Free Software license agreement that is the result
925of discussions between its authors in order to ensure compliance with
926the two main principles guiding its drafting:
927
928    * firstly, compliance with the principles governing the distribution
929      of Free Software: access to source code, broad rights granted to
930      users,
931    * secondly, the election of a governing law, French law, with which
932      it is conformant, both as regards the law of torts and
933      intellectual property law, and the protection that it offers to
934      both authors and holders of the economic rights over software.
935
936The authors of the CeCILL (for Ce[a] C[nrs] I[nria] L[ogiciel] L[ibre])
937license are:
938
939Commissariat à l'Energie Atomique - CEA, a public scientific, technical
940and industrial research establishment, having its principal place of
941business at 25 rue Leblanc, immeuble Le Ponant D, 75015 Paris, France.
942
943Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique - CNRS, a public scientific
944and technological establishment, having its principal place of business
945at 3 rue Michel-Ange, 75794 Paris cedex 16, France.
946
947Institut National de Recherche en Informatique et en Automatique -
948INRIA, a public scientific and technological establishment, having its
949principal place of business at Domaine de Voluceau, Rocquencourt, BP
950105, 78153 Le Chesnay cedex, France.
951
952
953    Preamble
954
955The purpose of this Free Software license agreement is to grant users
956the right to modify and redistribute the software governed by this
957license within the framework of an open source distribution model.
958
959The exercising of these rights is conditional upon certain obligations
960for users so as to preserve this status for all subsequent redistributions.
961
962In consideration of access to the source code and the rights to copy,
963modify and redistribute granted by the license, users are provided only
964with a limited warranty and the software's author, the holder of the
965economic rights, and the successive licensors only have limited liability.
966
967In this respect, the risks associated with loading, using, modifying
968and/or developing or reproducing the software by the user are brought to
969the user's attention, given its Free Software status, which may make it
970complicated to use, with the result that its use is reserved for
971developers and experienced professionals having in-depth computer
972knowledge. Users are therefore encouraged to load and test the
973suitability of the software as regards their requirements in conditions
974enabling the security of their systems and/or data to be ensured and,
975more generally, to use and operate it in the same conditions of
976security. This Agreement may be freely reproduced and published,
977provided it is not altered, and that no provisions are either added or
978removed herefrom.
979
980This Agreement may apply to any or all software for which the holder of
981the economic rights decides to submit the use thereof to its provisions.
982
983
