1.1 ! snw 1: GNU AFFERO GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE
! 2: Version 3, 19 November 2007
! 3:
! 4: Copyright (C) 2007 Free Software Foundation, Inc. <https://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
! 11: software and other kinds of works, specifically designed to ensure
! 12: cooperation with the community in the case of network server software.
! 13:
! 14: The licenses for most software and other practical works are designed
! 15: to take away your freedom to share and change the works. By contrast,
! 16: our General Public Licenses are intended to guarantee your freedom to
! 17: share and change all versions of a program--to make sure it remains free
! 18: software for all its users.
! 19:
! 20: When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not
! 21: price. Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that you
! 22: have the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge for
! 23: them if you wish), that you receive source code or can get it if you
! 24: want it, that you can change the software or use pieces of it in new
! 25: free programs, and that you know you can do these things.
! 26:
! 27: Developers that use our General Public Licenses protect your rights
! 28: with two steps: (1) assert copyright on the software, and (2) offer
! 29: you this License which gives you legal permission to copy, distribute
! 30: and/or modify the software.
! 31:
! 32: A secondary benefit of defending all users' freedom is that
! 33: improvements made in alternate versions of the program, if they
! 34: receive widespread use, become available for other developers to
! 35: incorporate. Many developers of free software are heartened and
! 36: encouraged by the resulting cooperation. However, in the case of
! 37: software used on network servers, this result may fail to come about.
! 38: The GNU General Public License permits making a modified version and
! 39: letting the public access it on a server without ever releasing its
! 40: source code to the public.
! 41:
! 42: The GNU Affero General Public License is designed specifically to
! 43: ensure that, in such cases, the modified source code becomes available
! 44: to the community. It requires the operator of a network server to
! 45: provide the source code of the modified version running there to the
! 46: users of that server. Therefore, public use of a modified version, on
! 47: a publicly accessible server, gives the public access to the source
! 48: code of the modified version.
! 49:
! 50: An older license, called the Affero General Public License and
! 51: published by Affero, was designed to accomplish similar goals. This is
! 52: a different license, not a version of the Affero GPL, but Affero has
! 53: released a new version of the Affero GPL which permits relicensing under
! 54: this license.
! 55:
! 56: The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and
! 57: modification 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
! 66: works, such as semiconductor masks.
! 67:
! 68: "The Program" refers to any copyrightable work licensed under this
! 69: License. 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
! 73: in a fashion requiring copyright permission, other than the making of an
! 74: exact copy. The resulting work is called a "modified version" of the
! 75: earlier work or a work "based on" the earlier work.
! 76:
! 77: A "covered work" means either the unmodified Program or a work based
! 78: on the Program.
! 79:
! 80: To "propagate" a work means to do anything with it that, without
! 81: permission, would make you directly or secondarily liable for
! 82: infringement under applicable copyright law, except executing it on a
! 83: computer or modifying a private copy. Propagation includes copying,
! 84: distribution (with or without modification), making available to the
! 85: public, and in some countries other activities as well.
! 86:
! 87: To "convey" a work means any kind of propagation that enables other
! 88: parties to make or receive copies. Mere interaction with a user through
! 89: a computer network, with no transfer of a copy, is not conveying.
! 90:
! 91: An interactive user interface displays "Appropriate Legal Notices"
! 92: to the extent that it includes a convenient and prominently visible
! 93: feature that (1) displays an appropriate copyright notice, and (2)
! 94: tells the user that there is no warranty for the work (except to the
! 95: extent that warranties are provided), that licensees may convey the
! 96: work under this License, and how to view a copy of this License. If
! 97: the interface presents a list of user commands or options, such as a
! 98: menu, 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
! 103: for making modifications to it. "Object code" means any non-source
! 104: form of a work.
! 105:
! 106: A "Standard Interface" means an interface that either is an official
! 107: standard defined by a recognized standards body, or, in the case of
! 108: interfaces specified for a particular programming language, one that
! 109: is widely used among developers working in that language.
! 110:
! 111: The "System Libraries" of an executable work include anything, other
! 112: than the work as a whole, that (a) is included in the normal form of
! 113: packaging a Major Component, but which is not part of that Major
! 114: Component, and (b) serves only to enable use of the work with that
! 115: Major Component, or to implement a Standard Interface for which an
! 116: implementation 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
! 120: produce 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
! 123: the source code needed to generate, install, and (for an executable
! 124: work) run the object code and to modify the work, including scripts to
! 125: control those activities. However, it does not include the work's
! 126: System Libraries, or general-purpose tools or generally available free
! 127: programs which are used unmodified in performing those activities but
! 128: which are not part of the work. For example, Corresponding Source
! 129: includes interface definition files associated with source files for
! 130: the work, and the source code for shared libraries and dynamically
! 131: linked subprograms that the work is specifically designed to require,
! 132: such as by intimate data communication or control flow between those
! 133: subprograms and other parts of the work.
! 134:
! 135: The Corresponding Source need not include anything that users
! 136: can regenerate automatically from other parts of the Corresponding
! 137: Source.
! 138:
! 139: The Corresponding Source for a work in source code form is that
! 140: same work.
! 141:
! 142: 2. Basic Permissions.
! 143:
! 144: All rights granted under this License are granted for the term of
! 145: copyright on the Program, and are irrevocable provided the stated
! 146: conditions are met. This License explicitly affirms your unlimited
! 147: permission to run the unmodified Program. The output from running a
! 148: covered work is covered by this License only if the output, given its
! 149: content, constitutes a covered work. This License acknowledges your
! 150: rights 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
! 153: convey, without conditions so long as your license otherwise remains
! 154: in force. You may convey covered works to others for the sole purpose
! 155: of having them make modifications exclusively for you, or provide you
! 156: with facilities for running those works, provided that you comply with
! 157: the terms of this License in conveying all material for which you do
! 158: not control copyright. Those thus making or running the covered works
! 159: for you must do so exclusively on your behalf, under your direction
! 160: and control, on terms that prohibit them from making any copies of
! 161: your copyrighted material outside their relationship with you.
! 162:
! 163: Conveying under any other circumstances is permitted solely under
! 164: the conditions stated below. Sublicensing is not allowed; section 10
! 165: makes 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
! 170: measure under any applicable law fulfilling obligations under article
! 171: 11 of the WIPO copyright treaty adopted on 20 December 1996, or
! 172: similar laws prohibiting or restricting circumvention of such
! 173: measures.
! 174:
! 175: When you convey a covered work, you waive any legal power to forbid
! 176: circumvention of technological measures to the extent such circumvention
! 177: is effected by exercising rights under this License with respect to
! 178: the covered work, and you disclaim any intention to limit operation or
! 179: modification of the work as a means of enforcing, against the work's
! 180: users, your or third parties' legal rights to forbid circumvention of
! 181: technological measures.
! 182:
! 183: 4. Conveying Verbatim Copies.
! 184:
! 185: You may convey verbatim copies of the Program's source code as you
! 186: receive it, in any medium, provided that you conspicuously and
! 187: appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate copyright notice;
! 188: keep intact all notices stating that this License and any
! 189: non-permissive terms added in accord with section 7 apply to the code;
! 190: keep intact all notices of the absence of any warranty; and give all
! 191: recipients 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,
! 194: and 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
! 199: produce it from the Program, in the form of source code under the
! 200: terms 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
! 224: works, which are not by their nature extensions of the covered work,
! 225: and which are not combined with it such as to form a larger program,
! 226: in or on a volume of a storage or distribution medium, is called an
! 227: "aggregate" if the compilation and its resulting copyright are not
! 228: used to limit the access or legal rights of the compilation's users
! 229: beyond what the individual works permit. Inclusion of a covered work
! 230: in an aggregate does not cause this License to apply to the other
! 231: parts 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
! 236: of sections 4 and 5, provided that you also convey the
! 237: machine-readable Corresponding Source under the terms of this License,
! 238: in 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
! 282: from the Corresponding Source as a System Library, need not be
! 283: included in conveying the object code work.
! 284:
! 285: A "User Product" is either (1) a "consumer product", which means any
! 286: tangible personal property which is normally used for personal, family,
! 287: or household purposes, or (2) anything designed or sold for incorporation
! 288: into a dwelling. In determining whether a product is a consumer product,
! 289: doubtful cases shall be resolved in favor of coverage. For a particular
! 290: product received by a particular user, "normally used" refers to a
! 291: typical or common use of that class of product, regardless of the status
! 292: of the particular user or of the way in which the particular user
! 293: actually uses, or expects or is expected to use, the product. A product
! 294: is a consumer product regardless of whether the product has substantial
! 295: commercial, industrial or non-consumer uses, unless such uses represent
! 296: the only significant mode of use of the product.
! 297:
! 298: "Installation Information" for a User Product means any methods,
! 299: procedures, authorization keys, or other information required to install
! 300: and execute modified versions of a covered work in that User Product from
! 301: a modified version of its Corresponding Source. The information must
! 302: suffice to ensure that the continued functioning of the modified object
! 303: code is in no case prevented or interfered with solely because
! 304: modification has been made.
! 305:
! 306: If you convey an object code work under this section in, or with, or
! 307: specifically for use in, a User Product, and the conveying occurs as
! 308: part of a transaction in which the right of possession and use of the
! 309: User Product is transferred to the recipient in perpetuity or for a
! 310: fixed term (regardless of how the transaction is characterized), the
! 311: Corresponding Source conveyed under this section must be accompanied
! 312: by the Installation Information. But this requirement does not apply
! 313: if neither you nor any third party retains the ability to install
! 314: modified object code on the User Product (for example, the work has
! 315: been installed in ROM).
! 316:
! 317: The requirement to provide Installation Information does not include a
! 318: requirement to continue to provide support service, warranty, or updates
! 319: for a work that has been modified or installed by the recipient, or for
! 320: the User Product in which it has been modified or installed. Access to a
! 321: network may be denied when the modification itself materially and
! 322: adversely affects the operation of the network or violates the rules and
! 323: protocols for communication across the network.
! 324:
! 325: Corresponding Source conveyed, and Installation Information provided,
! 326: in accord with this section must be in a format that is publicly
! 327: documented (and with an implementation available to the public in
! 328: source code form), and must require no special password or key for
! 329: unpacking, reading or copying.
! 330:
! 331: 7. Additional Terms.
! 332:
! 333: "Additional permissions" are terms that supplement the terms of this
! 334: License by making exceptions from one or more of its conditions.
! 335: Additional permissions that are applicable to the entire Program shall
! 336: be treated as though they were included in this License, to the extent
! 337: that they are valid under applicable law. If additional permissions
! 338: apply only to part of the Program, that part may be used separately
! 339: under those permissions, but the entire Program remains governed by
! 340: this License without regard to the additional permissions.
! 341:
! 342: When you convey a copy of a covered work, you may at your option
! 343: remove any additional permissions from that copy, or from any part of
! 344: it. (Additional permissions may be written to require their own
! 345: removal in certain cases when you modify the work.) You may place
! 346: additional permissions on material, added by you to a covered work,
! 347: for which you have or can give appropriate copyright permission.
! 348:
! 349: Notwithstanding any other provision of this License, for material you
! 350: add to a covered work, you may (if authorized by the copyright holders of
! 351: that 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
! 377: restrictions" within the meaning of section 10. If the Program as you
! 378: received it, or any part of it, contains a notice stating that it is
! 379: governed by this License along with a term that is a further
! 380: restriction, you may remove that term. If a license document contains
! 381: a further restriction but permits relicensing or conveying under this
! 382: License, you may add to a covered work material governed by the terms
! 383: of that license document, provided that the further restriction does
! 384: not survive such relicensing or conveying.
! 385:
! 386: If you add terms to a covered work in accord with this section, you
! 387: must place, in the relevant source files, a statement of the
! 388: additional terms that apply to those files, or a notice indicating
! 389: where to find the applicable terms.
! 390:
! 391: Additional terms, permissive or non-permissive, may be stated in the
! 392: form of a separately written license, or stated as exceptions;
! 393: the above requirements apply either way.
! 394:
! 395: 8. Termination.
! 396:
! 397: You may not propagate or modify a covered work except as expressly
! 398: provided under this License. Any attempt otherwise to propagate or
! 399: modify it is void, and will automatically terminate your rights under
! 400: this License (including any patent licenses granted under the third
! 401: paragraph of section 11).
! 402:
! 403: However, if you cease all violation of this License, then your
! 404: license from a particular copyright holder is reinstated (a)
! 405: provisionally, unless and until the copyright holder explicitly and
! 406: finally terminates your license, and (b) permanently, if the copyright
! 407: holder fails to notify you of the violation by some reasonable means
! 408: prior to 60 days after the cessation.
! 409:
! 410: Moreover, your license from a particular copyright holder is
! 411: reinstated permanently if the copyright holder notifies you of the
! 412: violation by some reasonable means, this is the first time you have
! 413: received notice of violation of this License (for any work) from that
! 414: copyright holder, and you cure the violation prior to 30 days after
! 415: your receipt of the notice.
! 416:
! 417: Termination of your rights under this section does not terminate the
! 418: licenses of parties who have received copies or rights from you under
! 419: this License. If your rights have been terminated and not permanently
! 420: reinstated, you do not qualify to receive new licenses for the same
! 421: material 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
! 426: run a copy of the Program. Ancillary propagation of a covered work
! 427: occurring solely as a consequence of using peer-to-peer transmission
! 428: to receive a copy likewise does not require acceptance. However,
! 429: nothing other than this License grants you permission to propagate or
! 430: modify any covered work. These actions infringe copyright if you do
! 431: not accept this License. Therefore, by modifying or propagating a
! 432: covered 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
! 437: receives a license from the original licensors, to run, modify and
! 438: propagate that work, subject to this License. You are not responsible
! 439: for enforcing compliance by third parties with this License.
! 440:
! 441: An "entity transaction" is a transaction transferring control of an
! 442: organization, or substantially all assets of one, or subdividing an
! 443: organization, or merging organizations. If propagation of a covered
! 444: work results from an entity transaction, each party to that
! 445: transaction who receives a copy of the work also receives whatever
! 446: licenses to the work the party's predecessor in interest had or could
! 447: give under the previous paragraph, plus a right to possession of the
! 448: Corresponding Source of the work from the predecessor in interest, if
! 449: the predecessor has it or can get it with reasonable efforts.
! 450:
! 451: You may not impose any further restrictions on the exercise of the
! 452: rights granted or affirmed under this License. For example, you may
! 453: not impose a license fee, royalty, or other charge for exercise of
! 454: rights granted under this License, and you may not initiate litigation
! 455: (including a cross-claim or counterclaim in a lawsuit) alleging that
! 456: any patent claim is infringed by making, using, selling, offering for
! 457: sale, 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
! 462: License of the Program or a work on which the Program is based. The
! 463: work thus licensed is called the contributor's "contributor version".
! 464:
! 465: A contributor's "essential patent claims" are all patent claims
! 466: owned or controlled by the contributor, whether already acquired or
! 467: hereafter acquired, that would be infringed by some manner, permitted
! 468: by this License, of making, using, or selling its contributor version,
! 469: but do not include claims that would be infringed only as a
! 470: consequence of further modification of the contributor version. For
! 471: purposes of this definition, "control" includes the right to grant
! 472: patent sublicenses in a manner consistent with the requirements of
! 473: this License.
! 474:
! 475: Each contributor grants you a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free
! 476: patent license under the contributor's essential patent claims, to
! 477: make, use, sell, offer for sale, import and otherwise run, modify and
! 478: propagate the contents of its contributor version.
! 479:
! 480: In the following three paragraphs, a "patent license" is any express
! 481: agreement or commitment, however denominated, not to enforce a patent
! 482: (such as an express permission to practice a patent or covenant not to
! 483: sue for patent infringement). To "grant" such a patent license to a
! 484: party means to make such an agreement or commitment not to enforce a
! 485: patent against the party.
! 486:
! 487: If you convey a covered work, knowingly relying on a patent license,
! 488: and the Corresponding Source of the work is not available for anyone
! 489: to copy, free of charge and under the terms of this License, through a
! 490: publicly available network server or other readily accessible means,
! 491: then you must either (1) cause the Corresponding Source to be so
! 492: available, or (2) arrange to deprive yourself of the benefit of the
! 493: patent license for this particular work, or (3) arrange, in a manner
! 494: consistent with the requirements of this License, to extend the patent
! 495: license to downstream recipients. "Knowingly relying" means you have
! 496: actual knowledge that, but for the patent license, your conveying the
! 497: covered work in a country, or your recipient's use of the covered work
! 498: in a country, would infringe one or more identifiable patents in that
! 499: country that you have reason to believe are valid.
! 500:
! 501: If, pursuant to or in connection with a single transaction or
! 502: arrangement, you convey, or propagate by procuring conveyance of, a
! 503: covered work, and grant a patent license to some of the parties
! 504: receiving the covered work authorizing them to use, propagate, modify
! 505: or convey a specific copy of the covered work, then the patent license
! 506: you grant is automatically extended to all recipients of the covered
! 507: work and works based on it.
! 508:
! 509: A patent license is "discriminatory" if it does not include within
! 510: the scope of its coverage, prohibits the exercise of, or is
! 511: conditioned on the non-exercise of one or more of the rights that are
! 512: specifically granted under this License. You may not convey a covered
! 513: work if you are a party to an arrangement with a third party that is
! 514: in the business of distributing software, under which you make payment
! 515: to the third party based on the extent of your activity of conveying
! 516: the work, and under which the third party grants, to any of the
! 517: parties who would receive the covered work from you, a discriminatory
! 518: patent license (a) in connection with copies of the covered work
! 519: conveyed by you (or copies made from those copies), or (b) primarily
! 520: for and in connection with specific products or compilations that
! 521: contain the covered work, unless you entered into that arrangement,
! 522: or that patent license was granted, prior to 28 March 2007.
! 523:
! 524: Nothing in this License shall be construed as excluding or limiting
! 525: any implied license or other defenses to infringement that may
! 526: otherwise 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
! 531: otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not
! 532: excuse you from the conditions of this License. If you cannot convey a
! 533: covered work so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this
! 534: License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you may
! 535: not convey it at all. For example, if you agree to terms that obligate you
! 536: to collect a royalty for further conveying from those to whom you convey
! 537: the Program, the only way you could satisfy both those terms and this
! 538: License 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
! 543: Program, your modified version must prominently offer all users
! 544: interacting with it remotely through a computer network (if your version
! 545: supports such interaction) an opportunity to receive the Corresponding
! 546: Source of your version by providing access to the Corresponding Source
! 547: from a network server at no charge, through some standard or customary
! 548: means of facilitating copying of software. This Corresponding Source
! 549: shall include the Corresponding Source for any work covered by version 3
! 550: of the GNU General Public License that is incorporated pursuant to the
! 551: following paragraph.
! 552:
! 553: Notwithstanding any other provision of this License, you have
! 554: permission to link or combine any covered work with a work licensed
! 555: under version 3 of the GNU General Public License into a single
! 556: combined work, and to convey the resulting work. The terms of this
! 557: License will continue to apply to the part which is the covered work,
! 558: but the work with which it is combined will remain governed by version
! 559: 3 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
! 564: the GNU Affero General Public License from time to time. Such new versions
! 565: will be similar in spirit to the present version, but may differ in detail to
! 566: address new problems or concerns.
! 567:
! 568: Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the
! 569: Program specifies that a certain numbered version of the GNU Affero General
! 570: Public License "or any later version" applies to it, you have the
! 571: option of following the terms and conditions either of that numbered
! 572: version or of any later version published by the Free Software
! 573: Foundation. If the Program does not specify a version number of the
! 574: GNU Affero General Public License, you may choose any version ever published
! 575: by the Free Software Foundation.
! 576:
! 577: If the Program specifies that a proxy can decide which future
! 578: versions of the GNU Affero General Public License can be used, that proxy's
! 579: public statement of acceptance of a version permanently authorizes you
! 580: to choose that version for the Program.
! 581:
! 582: Later license versions may give you additional or different
! 583: permissions. However, no additional obligations are imposed on any
! 584: author or copyright holder as a result of your choosing to follow a
! 585: later version.
! 586:
! 587: 15. Disclaimer of Warranty.
! 588:
! 589: THERE IS NO WARRANTY FOR THE PROGRAM, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY
! 590: APPLICABLE LAW. EXCEPT WHEN OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT
! 591: HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER PARTIES PROVIDE THE PROGRAM "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY
! 592: OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO,
! 593: THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR
! 594: PURPOSE. THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE PROGRAM
! 595: IS WITH YOU. SHOULD THE PROGRAM PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE COST OF
! 596: ALL 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
! 601: WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MODIFIES AND/OR CONVEYS
! 602: THE PROGRAM AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES, INCLUDING ANY
! 603: GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THE
! 604: USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF
! 605: DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY YOU OR THIRD
! 606: PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF THE PROGRAM TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER PROGRAMS),
! 607: EVEN IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF
! 608: SUCH DAMAGES.
! 609:
! 610: 17. Interpretation of Sections 15 and 16.
! 611:
! 612: If the disclaimer of warranty and limitation of liability provided
! 613: above cannot be given local legal effect according to their terms,
! 614: reviewing courts shall apply local law that most closely approximates
! 615: an absolute waiver of all civil liability in connection with the
! 616: Program, unless a warranty or assumption of liability accompanies a
! 617: copy 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
! 624: possible use to the public, the best way to achieve this is to make it
! 625: free 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
! 628: to attach them to the start of each source file to most effectively
! 629: state the exclusion of warranty; and each file should have at least
! 630: the "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 <https://www.gnu.org/licenses/>.
! 647:
! 648: Also 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
! 651: network, you should also make sure that it provides a way for users to
! 652: get its source. For example, if your program is a web application, its
! 653: interface could display a "Source" link that leads users to an archive
! 654: of the code. There are many ways you could offer source, and different
! 655: solutions will be better for different programs; see section 13 for the
! 656: specific requirements.
! 657:
! 658: You should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer) or school,
! 659: if any, to sign a "copyright disclaimer" for the program, if necessary.
! 660: For more information on this, and how to apply and follow the GNU AGPL, see
! 661: <https://www.gnu.org/licenses/>.
