  4 Copyright (C) 2007 Free Software Foundation, Inc. <http://fsf.org/>
  5 Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies
  6 of this license document, but changing it is not allowed.
  7
  8                            Preamble
  9
 10  The GNU Affero General Public License is a free, copyleft license for
 11software and other kinds of works, specifically designed to ensure
 12cooperation with the community in the case of network server software.
 13
 14  The licenses for most software and other practical works are designed
 15to take away your freedom to share and change the works.  By contrast,
 16our General Public Licenses are intended to guarantee your freedom to
 17share and change all versions of a program--to make sure it remains free
 18software for all its users.
 19
 20  When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not
 21price.  Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that you
 22have the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge for
 23them if you wish), that you receive source code or can get it if you
 24want it, that you can change the software or use pieces of it in new
 25free programs, and that you know you can do these things.
 26
 27  Developers that use our General Public Licenses protect your rights
 28with two steps: (1) assert copyright on the software, and (2) offer
 29you this License which gives you legal permission to copy, distribute
 30and/or modify the software.
 31
 32  A secondary benefit of defending all users' freedom is that
 33improvements made in alternate versions of the program, if they
 34receive widespread use, become available for other developers to
 35incorporate.  Many developers of free software are heartened and
 36encouraged by the resulting cooperation.  However, in the case of
 37software used on network servers, this result may fail to come about.
 38The GNU General Public License permits making a modified version and
 39letting the public access it on a server without ever releasing its
 40source code to the public.
 41
 42  The GNU Affero General Public License is designed specifically to
 43ensure that, in such cases, the modified source code becomes available
 44to the community.  It requires the operator of a network server to
 45provide the source code of the modified version running there to the
 46users of that server.  Therefore, public use of a modified version, on
 47a publicly accessible server, gives the public access to the source
 48code of the modified version.
 49
 50  An older license, called the Affero General Public License and
 51published by Affero, was designed to accomplish similar goals.  This is
 52a different license, not a version of the Affero GPL, but Affero has
 53released a new version of the Affero GPL which permits relicensing under
 54this license.
 55
 56  The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and
 57modification follow.
 58
 59                       TERMS AND CONDITIONS
 60
 61  0. Definitions.
 62
 63  "This License" refers to version 3 of the GNU Affero General Public License.
 64
 65  "Copyright" also means copyright-like laws that apply to other kinds of
 66works, such as semiconductor masks.
 67
 68  "The Program" refers to any copyrightable work licensed under this
 69License.  Each licensee is addressed as "you".  "Licensees" and
 70"recipients" may be individuals or organizations.
 71
 72  To "modify" a work means to copy from or adapt all or part of the work
 73in a fashion requiring copyright permission, other than the making of an
 74exact copy.  The resulting work is called a "modified version" of the
 75earlier work or a work "based on" the earlier work.
 76
 77  A "covered work" means either the unmodified Program or a work based
 78on the Program.
 79
 80  To "propagate" a work means to do anything with it that, without
 81permission, would make you directly or secondarily liable for
 82infringement under applicable copyright law, except executing it on a
 83computer or modifying a private copy.  Propagation includes copying,
 84distribution (with or without modification), making available to the
 85public, and in some countries other activities as well.
 86
 87  To "convey" a work means any kind of propagation that enables other
 88parties to make or receive copies.  Mere interaction with a user through
 89a computer network, with no transfer of a copy, is not conveying.
 90
 91  An interactive user interface displays "Appropriate Legal Notices"
 92to the extent that it includes a convenient and prominently visible
 93feature that (1) displays an appropriate copyright notice, and (2)
 94tells the user that there is no warranty for the work (except to the
 95extent that warranties are provided), that licensees may convey the
 96work under this License, and how to view a copy of this License.  If
 97the interface presents a list of user commands or options, such as a
 98menu, a prominent item in the list meets this criterion.
 99
100  1. Source Code.
101
102  The "source code" for a work means the preferred form of the work
103for making modifications to it.  "Object code" means any non-source
104form of a work.
105
106  A "Standard Interface" means an interface that either is an official
107standard defined by a recognized standards body, or, in the case of
108interfaces specified for a particular programming language, one that
109is widely used among developers working in that language.
110
111  The "System Libraries" of an executable work include anything, other
112than the work as a whole, that (a) is included in the normal form of
113packaging a Major Component, but which is not part of that Major
114Component, and (b) serves only to enable use of the work with that
115Major Component, or to implement a Standard Interface for which an
116implementation is available to the public in source code form.  A
117"Major Component", in this context, means a major essential component
118(kernel, window system, and so on) of the specific operating system
119(if any) on which the executable work runs, or a compiler used to
120produce the work, or an object code interpreter used to run it.
121
122  The "Corresponding Source" for a work in object code form means all
123the source code needed to generate, install, and (for an executable
124work) run the object code and to modify the work, including scripts to
125control those activities.  However, it does not include the work's
126System Libraries, or general-purpose tools or generally available free
127programs which are used unmodified in performing those activities but
128which are not part of the work.  For example, Corresponding Source
129includes interface definition files associated with source files for
130the work, and the source code for shared libraries and dynamically
131linked subprograms that the work is specifically designed to require,
132such as by intimate data communication or control flow between those
133subprograms and other parts of the work.
134
135  The Corresponding Source need not include anything that users
136can regenerate automatically from other parts of the Corresponding
137Source.
138
139  The Corresponding Source for a work in source code form is that
140same work.
141
142  2. Basic Permissions.
143
144  All rights granted under this License are granted for the term of
145copyright on the Program, and are irrevocable provided the stated
146conditions are met.  This License explicitly affirms your unlimited
147permission to run the unmodified Program.  The output from running a
148covered work is covered by this License only if the output, given its
149content, constitutes a covered work.  This License acknowledges your
150rights of fair use or other equivalent, as provided by copyright law.
151
152  You may make, run and propagate covered works that you do not
153convey, without conditions so long as your license otherwise remains
154in force.  You may convey covered works to others for the sole purpose
155of having them make modifications exclusively for you, or provide you
156with facilities for running those works, provided that you comply with
157the terms of this License in conveying all material for which you do
158not control copyright.  Those thus making or running the covered works
159for you must do so exclusively on your behalf, under your direction
160and control, on terms that prohibit them from making any copies of
161your copyrighted material outside their relationship with you.
162
163  Conveying under any other circumstances is permitted solely under
164the conditions stated below.  Sublicensing is not allowed; section 10
165makes it unnecessary.
166
167  3. Protecting Users' Legal Rights From Anti-Circumvention Law.
168
169  No covered work shall be deemed part of an effective technological
170measure under any applicable law fulfilling obligations under article
17111 of the WIPO copyright treaty adopted on 20 December 1996, or
172similar laws prohibiting or restricting circumvention of such
173measures.
174
175  When you convey a covered work, you waive any legal power to forbid
176circumvention of technological measures to the extent such circumvention
177is effected by exercising rights under this License with respect to
178the covered work, and you disclaim any intention to limit operation or
179modification of the work as a means of enforcing, against the work's
180users, your or third parties' legal rights to forbid circumvention of
181technological measures.
182
183  4. Conveying Verbatim Copies.
184
185  You may convey verbatim copies of the Program's source code as you
186receive it, in any medium, provided that you conspicuously and
187appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate copyright notice;
188keep intact all notices stating that this License and any
189non-permissive terms added in accord with section 7 apply to the code;
190keep intact all notices of the absence of any warranty; and give all
191recipients a copy of this License along with the Program.
192
193  You may charge any price or no price for each copy that you convey,
194and you may offer support or warranty protection for a fee.
195
196  5. Conveying Modified Source Versions.
197
198  You may convey a work based on the Program, or the modifications to
199produce it from the Program, in the form of source code under the
200terms of section 4, provided that you also meet all of these conditions:
201
202    a) The work must carry prominent notices stating that you modified
203    it, and giving a relevant date.
204
205    b) The work must carry prominent notices stating that it is
206    released under this License and any conditions added under section
207    7.  This requirement modifies the requirement in section 4 to
208    "keep intact all notices".
209
210    c) You must license the entire work, as a whole, under this
211    License to anyone who comes into possession of a copy.  This
212    License will therefore apply, along with any applicable section 7
213    additional terms, to the whole of the work, and all its parts,
214    regardless of how they are packaged.  This License gives no
215    permission to license the work in any other way, but it does not
216    invalidate such permission if you have separately received it.
217
218    d) If the work has interactive user interfaces, each must display
219    Appropriate Legal Notices; however, if the Program has interactive
220    interfaces that do not display Appropriate Legal Notices, your
221    work need not make them do so.
222
223  A compilation of a covered work with other separate and independent
224works, which are not by their nature extensions of the covered work,
225and which are not combined with it such as to form a larger program,
226in or on a volume of a storage or distribution medium, is called an
227"aggregate" if the compilation and its resulting copyright are not
228used to limit the access or legal rights of the compilation's users
229beyond what the individual works permit.  Inclusion of a covered work
230in an aggregate does not cause this License to apply to the other
231parts of the aggregate.
232
233  6. Conveying Non-Source Forms.
234
235  You may convey a covered work in object code form under the terms
236of sections 4 and 5, provided that you also convey the
237machine-readable Corresponding Source under the terms of this License,
238in one of these ways:
239
240    a) Convey the object code in, or embodied in, a physical product
241    (including a physical distribution medium), accompanied by the
242    Corresponding Source fixed on a durable physical medium
243    customarily used for software interchange.
244
245    b) Convey the object code in, or embodied in, a physical product
246    (including a physical distribution medium), accompanied by a
247    written offer, valid for at least three years and valid for as
248    long as you offer spare parts or customer support for that product
249    model, to give anyone who possesses the object code either (1) a
250    copy of the Corresponding Source for all the software in the
251    product that is covered by this License, on a durable physical
252    medium customarily used for software interchange, for a price no
253    more than your reasonable cost of physically performing this
254    conveying of source, or (2) access to copy the
255    Corresponding Source from a network server at no charge.
256
257    c) Convey individual copies of the object code with a copy of the
258    written offer to provide the Corresponding Source.  This
259    alternative is allowed only occasionally and noncommercially, and
260    only if you received the object code with such an offer, in accord
261    with subsection 6b.
262
263    d) Convey the object code by offering access from a designated
264    place (gratis or for a charge), and offer equivalent access to the
265    Corresponding Source in the same way through the same place at no
266    further charge.  You need not require recipients to copy the
267    Corresponding Source along with the object code.  If the place to
268    copy the object code is a network server, the Corresponding Source
269    may be on a different server (operated by you or a third party)
270    that supports equivalent copying facilities, provided you maintain
271    clear directions next to the object code saying where to find the
272    Corresponding Source.  Regardless of what server hosts the
273    Corresponding Source, you remain obligated to ensure that it is
274    available for as long as needed to satisfy these requirements.
275
276    e) Convey the object code using peer-to-peer transmission, provided
277    you inform other peers where the object code and Corresponding
278    Source of the work are being offered to the general public at no
279    charge under subsection 6d.
280
281  A separable portion of the object code, whose source code is excluded
282from the Corresponding Source as a System Library, need not be
283included in conveying the object code work.
284
285  A "User Product" is either (1) a "consumer product", which means any
286tangible personal property which is normally used for personal, family,
287or household purposes, or (2) anything designed or sold for incorporation
288into a dwelling.  In determining whether a product is a consumer product,
289doubtful cases shall be resolved in favor of coverage.  For a particular
290product received by a particular user, "normally used" refers to a
291typical or common use of that class of product, regardless of the status
292of the particular user or of the way in which the particular user
293actually uses, or expects or is expected to use, the product.  A product
294is a consumer product regardless of whether the product has substantial
295commercial, industrial or non-consumer uses, unless such uses represent
296the only significant mode of use of the product.
297
298  "Installation Information" for a User Product means any methods,
299procedures, authorization keys, or other information required to install
300and execute modified versions of a covered work in that User Product from
301a modified version of its Corresponding Source.  The information must
302suffice to ensure that the continued functioning of the modified object
303code is in no case prevented or interfered with solely because
304modification has been made.
305
306  If you convey an object code work under this section in, or with, or
307specifically for use in, a User Product, and the conveying occurs as
308part of a transaction in which the right of possession and use of the
309User Product is transferred to the recipient in perpetuity or for a
310fixed term (regardless of how the transaction is characterized), the
311Corresponding Source conveyed under this section must be accompanied
312by the Installation Information.  But this requirement does not apply
313if neither you nor any third party retains the ability to install
314modified object code on the User Product (for example, the work has
315been installed in ROM).
316
317  The requirement to provide Installation Information does not include a
318requirement to continue to provide support service, warranty, or updates
319for a work that has been modified or installed by the recipient, or for
320the User Product in which it has been modified or installed.  Access to a
321network may be denied when the modification itself materially and
322adversely affects the operation of the network or violates the rules and
323protocols for communication across the network.
324
325  Corresponding Source conveyed, and Installation Information provided,
326in accord with this section must be in a format that is publicly
327documented (and with an implementation available to the public in
328source code form), and must require no special password or key for
329unpacking, reading or copying.
330
331  7. Additional Terms.
332
333  "Additional permissions" are terms that supplement the terms of this
334License by making exceptions from one or more of its conditions.
335Additional permissions that are applicable to the entire Program shall
336be treated as though they were included in this License, to the extent
337that they are valid under applicable law.  If additional permissions
338apply only to part of the Program, that part may be used separately
339under those permissions, but the entire Program remains governed by
340this License without regard to the additional permissions.
341
342  When you convey a copy of a covered work, you may at your option
343remove any additional permissions from that copy, or from any part of
344it.  (Additional permissions may be written to require their own
345removal in certain cases when you modify the work.)  You may place
346additional permissions on material, added by you to a covered work,
347for which you have or can give appropriate copyright permission.
348
349  Notwithstanding any other provision of this License, for material you
350add to a covered work, you may (if authorized by the copyright holders of
351that material) supplement the terms of this License with terms:
352
353    a) Disclaiming warranty or limiting liability differently from the
354    terms of sections 15 and 16 of this License; or
355
356    b) Requiring preservation of specified reasonable legal notices or
357    author attributions in that material or in the Appropriate Legal
358    Notices displayed by works containing it; or
359
360    c) Prohibiting misrepresentation of the origin of that material, or
361    requiring that modified versions of such material be marked in
362    reasonable ways as different from the original version; or
363
364    d) Limiting the use for publicity purposes of names of licensors or
365    authors of the material; or
366
367    e) Declining to grant rights under trademark law for use of some
368    trade names, trademarks, or service marks; or
369
370    f) Requiring indemnification of licensors and authors of that
371    material by anyone who conveys the material (or modified versions of
372    it) with contractual assumptions of liability to the recipient, for
373    any liability that these contractual assumptions directly impose on
374    those licensors and authors.
375
376  All other non-permissive additional terms are considered "further
377restrictions" within the meaning of section 10.  If the Program as you
378received it, or any part of it, contains a notice stating that it is
379governed by this License along with a term that is a further
380restriction, you may remove that term.  If a license document contains
381a further restriction but permits relicensing or conveying under this
382License, you may add to a covered work material governed by the terms
383of that license document, provided that the further restriction does
384not survive such relicensing or conveying.
385
386  If you add terms to a covered work in accord with this section, you
387must place, in the relevant source files, a statement of the
388additional terms that apply to those files, or a notice indicating
389where to find the applicable terms.
390
391  Additional terms, permissive or non-permissive, may be stated in the
392form of a separately written license, or stated as exceptions;
393the above requirements apply either way.
394
395  8. Termination.
396
397  You may not propagate or modify a covered work except as expressly
398provided under this License.  Any attempt otherwise to propagate or
399modify it is void, and will automatically terminate your rights under
400this License (including any patent licenses granted under the third
401paragraph of section 11).
402
403  However, if you cease all violation of this License, then your
404license from a particular copyright holder is reinstated (a)
405provisionally, unless and until the copyright holder explicitly and
406finally terminates your license, and (b) permanently, if the copyright
407holder fails to notify you of the violation by some reasonable means
408prior to 60 days after the cessation.
409
410  Moreover, your license from a particular copyright holder is
411reinstated permanently if the copyright holder notifies you of the
412violation by some reasonable means, this is the first time you have
413received notice of violation of this License (for any work) from that
414copyright holder, and you cure the violation prior to 30 days after
415your receipt of the notice.
416
417  Termination of your rights under this section does not terminate the
418licenses of parties who have received copies or rights from you under
419this License.  If your rights have been terminated and not permanently
420reinstated, you do not qualify to receive new licenses for the same
421material under section 10.
422
423  9. Acceptance Not Required for Having Copies.
424
425  You are not required to accept this License in order to receive or
426run a copy of the Program.  Ancillary propagation of a covered work
427occurring solely as a consequence of using peer-to-peer transmission
428to receive a copy likewise does not require acceptance.  However,
429nothing other than this License grants you permission to propagate or
430modify any covered work.  These actions infringe copyright if you do
431not accept this License.  Therefore, by modifying or propagating a
432covered work, you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so.
433
434  10. Automatic Licensing of Downstream Recipients.
435
436  Each time you convey a covered work, the recipient automatically
437receives a license from the original licensors, to run, modify and
438propagate that work, subject to this License.  You are not responsible
439for enforcing compliance by third parties with this License.
440
441  An "entity transaction" is a transaction transferring control of an
442organization, or substantially all assets of one, or subdividing an
443organization, or merging organizations.  If propagation of a covered
444work results from an entity transaction, each party to that
445transaction who receives a copy of the work also receives whatever
446licenses to the work the party's predecessor in interest had or could
447give under the previous paragraph, plus a right to possession of the
448Corresponding Source of the work from the predecessor in interest, if
449the predecessor has it or can get it with reasonable efforts.
450
451  You may not impose any further restrictions on the exercise of the
452rights granted or affirmed under this License.  For example, you may
453not impose a license fee, royalty, or other charge for exercise of
454rights granted under this License, and you may not initiate litigation
455(including a cross-claim or counterclaim in a lawsuit) alleging that
456any patent claim is infringed by making, using, selling, offering for
457sale, or importing the Program or any portion of it.
458
459  11. Patents.
460
461  A "contributor" is a copyright holder who authorizes use under this
462License of the Program or a work on which the Program is based.  The
463work thus licensed is called the contributor's "contributor version".
464
465  A contributor's "essential patent claims" are all patent claims
466owned or controlled by the contributor, whether already acquired or
467hereafter acquired, that would be infringed by some manner, permitted
468by this License, of making, using, or selling its contributor version,
469but do not include claims that would be infringed only as a
470consequence of further modification of the contributor version.  For
471purposes of this definition, "control" includes the right to grant
472patent sublicenses in a manner consistent with the requirements of
473this License.
474
475  Each contributor grants you a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free
476patent license under the contributor's essential patent claims, to
477make, use, sell, offer for sale, import and otherwise run, modify and
478propagate the contents of its contributor version.
479
480  In the following three paragraphs, a "patent license" is any express
481agreement or commitment, however denominated, not to enforce a patent
482(such as an express permission to practice a patent or covenant not to
483sue for patent infringement).  To "grant" such a patent license to a
484party means to make such an agreement or commitment not to enforce a
485patent against the party.
486
487  If you convey a covered work, knowingly relying on a patent license,
488and the Corresponding Source of the work is not available for anyone
489to copy, free of charge and under the terms of this License, through a
490publicly available network server or other readily accessible means,
491then you must either (1) cause the Corresponding Source to be so
492available, or (2) arrange to deprive yourself of the benefit of the
493patent license for this particular work, or (3) arrange, in a manner
494consistent with the requirements of this License, to extend the patent
495license to downstream recipients.  "Knowingly relying" means you have
496actual knowledge that, but for the patent license, your conveying the
497covered work in a country, or your recipient's use of the covered work
498in a country, would infringe one or more identifiable patents in that
499country that you have reason to believe are valid.
500
501  If, pursuant to or in connection with a single transaction or
502arrangement, you convey, or propagate by procuring conveyance of, a
503covered work, and grant a patent license to some of the parties
504receiving the covered work authorizing them to use, propagate, modify
505or convey a specific copy of the covered work, then the patent license
506you grant is automatically extended to all recipients of the covered
507work and works based on it.
508
509  A patent license is "discriminatory" if it does not include within
510the scope of its coverage, prohibits the exercise of, or is
511conditioned on the non-exercise of one or more of the rights that are
512specifically granted under this License.  You may not convey a covered
513work if you are a party to an arrangement with a third party that is
514in the business of distributing software, under which you make payment
515to the third party based on the extent of your activity of conveying
516the work, and under which the third party grants, to any of the
517parties who would receive the covered work from you, a discriminatory
518patent license (a) in connection with copies of the covered work
519conveyed by you (or copies made from those copies), or (b) primarily
520for and in connection with specific products or compilations that
521contain the covered work, unless you entered into that arrangement,
522or that patent license was granted, prior to 28 March 2007.
523
524  Nothing in this License shall be construed as excluding or limiting
525any implied license or other defenses to infringement that may
526otherwise be available to you under applicable patent law.
527
528  12. No Surrender of Others' Freedom.
529
530  If conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or
531otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not
532excuse you from the conditions of this License.  If you cannot convey a
533covered work so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this
534License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you may
535not convey it at all.  For example, if you agree to terms that obligate you
536to collect a royalty for further conveying from those to whom you convey
537the Program, the only way you could satisfy both those terms and this
538License would be to refrain entirely from conveying the Program.
539
540  13. Remote Network Interaction; Use with the GNU General Public License.
541
542  Notwithstanding any other provision of this License, if you modify the
543Program, your modified version must prominently offer all users
544interacting with it remotely through a computer network (if your version
545supports such interaction) an opportunity to receive the Corresponding
546Source of your version by providing access to the Corresponding Source
547from a network server at no charge, through some standard or customary
548means of facilitating copying of software.  This Corresponding Source
549shall include the Corresponding Source for any work covered by version 3
550of the GNU General Public License that is incorporated pursuant to the
551following paragraph.
552
553  Notwithstanding any other provision of this License, you have
554permission to link or combine any covered work with a work licensed
555under version 3 of the GNU General Public License into a single
556combined work, and to convey the resulting work.  The terms of this
557License will continue to apply to the part which is the covered work,
558but the work with which it is combined will remain governed by version
5593 of the GNU General Public License.
560
561  14. Revised Versions of this License.
562
563  The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions of
564the GNU Affero General Public License from time to time.  Such new versions
565will be similar in spirit to the present version, but may differ in detail to
566address new problems or concerns.
567
568  Each version is given a distinguishing version number.  If the
569Program specifies that a certain numbered version of the GNU Affero General
570Public License "or any later version" applies to it, you have the
571option of following the terms and conditions either of that numbered
572version or of any later version published by the Free Software
573Foundation.  If the Program does not specify a version number of the
574GNU Affero General Public License, you may choose any version ever published
575by the Free Software Foundation.
576
577  If the Program specifies that a proxy can decide which future
578versions of the GNU Affero General Public License can be used, that proxy's
579public statement of acceptance of a version permanently authorizes you
580to choose that version for the Program.
581
582  Later license versions may give you additional or different
583permissions.  However, no additional obligations are imposed on any
584author or copyright holder as a result of your choosing to follow a
585later version.
586
587  15. Disclaimer of Warranty.
588
589  THERE IS NO WARRANTY FOR THE PROGRAM, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY
590APPLICABLE LAW.  EXCEPT WHEN OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT
591HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER PARTIES PROVIDE THE PROGRAM "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY
592OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO,
593THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR
594PURPOSE.  THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE PROGRAM
595IS WITH YOU.  SHOULD THE PROGRAM PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE COST OF
596ALL NECESSARY SERVICING, REPAIR OR CORRECTION.
597
598  16. Limitation of Liability.
599
600  IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN WRITING
601WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MODIFIES AND/OR CONVEYS
602THE PROGRAM AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES, INCLUDING ANY
603GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THE
604USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF
605DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY YOU OR THIRD
606PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF THE PROGRAM TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER PROGRAMS),
607EVEN IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF
608SUCH DAMAGES.
609
610  17. Interpretation of Sections 15 and 16.
611
612  If the disclaimer of warranty and limitation of liability provided
613above cannot be given local legal effect according to their terms,
614reviewing courts shall apply local law that most closely approximates
615an absolute waiver of all civil liability in connection with the
616Program, unless a warranty or assumption of liability accompanies a
617copy of the Program in return for a fee.
618
619                     END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS
620
621            How to Apply These Terms to Your New Programs
622
623  If you develop a new program, and you want it to be of the greatest
624possible use to the public, the best way to achieve this is to make it
625free software which everyone can redistribute and change under these terms.
626
627  To do so, attach the following notices to the program.  It is safest
628to attach them to the start of each source file to most effectively
629state the exclusion of warranty; and each file should have at least
630the "copyright" line and a pointer to where the full notice is found.
631
632    <one line to give the program's name and a brief idea of what it does.>
633    Copyright (C) <year>  <name of author>
634
635    This program is free software: you can redistribute it and/or modify
636    it under the terms of the GNU Affero General Public License as published by
637    the Free Software Foundation, either version 3 of the License, or
638    (at your option) any later version.
639
640    This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful,
641    but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of
642    MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.  See the
643    GNU Affero General Public License for more details.
644
645    You should have received a copy of the GNU Affero General Public License
646    along with this program.  If not, see <http://www.gnu.org/licenses/>.
647
648Also add information on how to contact you by electronic and paper mail.
649
650  If your software can interact with users remotely through a computer
651network, you should also make sure that it provides a way for users to
652get its source.  For example, if your program is a web application, its
653interface could display a "Source" link that leads users to an archive
654of the code.  There are many ways you could offer source, and different
655solutions will be better for different programs; see section 13 for the
656specific requirements.
657
658  You should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer) or school,
659if any, to sign a "copyright disclaimer" for the program, if necessary.
