    1.32 -            GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE
    1.33 -		       Version 2, June 1991
    1.34 -
    1.35 - Copyright (C) 1989, 1991 Free Software Foundation, Inc.
    1.36 -     59 Temple Place, Suite 330, Boston, MA  02111-1307  USA
    1.37 - Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies
    1.38 - of this license document, but changing it is not allowed.
    1.39 -
    1.40 -			    Preamble
    1.41 -
    1.42 -  The licenses for most software are designed to take away your
    1.43 -freedom to share and change it.  By contrast, the GNU General Public
    1.44 -License is intended to guarantee your freedom to share and change free
    1.45 -software--to make sure the software is free for all its users.  This
    1.46 -General Public License applies to most of the Free Software
    1.47 -Foundation's software and to any other program whose authors commit to
    1.48 -using it.  (Some other Free Software Foundation software is covered by
    1.49 -the GNU Library General Public License instead.)  You can apply it to
    1.50 -your programs, too.
    1.51 -
    1.52 -  When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not
    1.53 -price.  Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that you
    1.54 -have the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge for
    1.55 -this service if you wish), that you receive source code or can get it
    1.56 -if you want it, that you can change the software or use pieces of it
    1.57 -in new free programs; and that you know you can do these things.
    1.58 -
    1.59 -  To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that forbid
    1.60 -anyone to deny you these rights or to ask you to surrender the rights.
    1.61 -These restrictions translate to certain responsibilities for you if you
    1.62 -distribute copies of the software, or if you modify it.
    1.63 -
    1.64 -  For example, if you distribute copies of such a program, whether
    1.65 -gratis or for a fee, you must give the recipients all the rights that
    1.66 -you have.  You must make sure that they, too, receive or can get the
    1.67 -source code.  And you must show them these terms so they know their
    1.68 -rights.
    1.69 -
    1.70 -  We protect your rights with two steps: (1) copyright the software, and
    1.71 -(2) offer you this license which gives you legal permission to copy,
    1.72 -distribute and/or modify the software.
    1.73 -
    1.74 -  Also, for each author's protection and ours, we want to make certain
    1.75 -that everyone understands that there is no warranty for this free
    1.76 -software.  If the software is modified by someone else and passed on, we
    1.77 -want its recipients to know that what they have is not the original, so
    1.78 -that any problems introduced by others will not reflect on the original
    1.79 -authors' reputations.
    1.80 -
    1.81 -  Finally, any free program is threatened constantly by software
    1.82 -patents.  We wish to avoid the danger that redistributors of a free
    1.83 -program will individually obtain patent licenses, in effect making the
    1.84 -program proprietary.  To prevent this, we have made it clear that any
    1.85 -patent must be licensed for everyone's free use or not licensed at all.
    1.86 -
    1.87 -  The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and
    1.88 -modification follow.
    1.89 -
    1.90 -		    GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE
    1.91 -   TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION
    1.92 -
    1.93 -  0. This License applies to any program or other work which contains
    1.94 -a notice placed by the copyright holder saying it may be distributed
    1.95 -under the terms of this General Public License.  The "Program", below,
    1.96 -refers to any such program or work, and a "work based on the Program"
    1.97 -means either the Program or any derivative work under copyright law:
    1.98 -that is to say, a work containing the Program or a portion of it,
    1.99 -either verbatim or with modifications and/or translated into another
   1.100 -language.  (Hereinafter, translation is included without limitation in
   1.101 -the term "modification".)  Each licensee is addressed as "you".
   1.102 -
   1.103 -Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are not
   1.104 -covered by this License; they are outside its scope.  The act of
   1.105 -running the Program is not restricted, and the output from the Program
   1.106 -is covered only if its contents constitute a work based on the
   1.107 -Program (independent of having been made by running the Program).
   1.108 -Whether that is true depends on what the Program does.
   1.109 -
   1.110 -  1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Program's
   1.111 -source code as you receive it, in any medium, provided that you
   1.112 -conspicuously and appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate
   1.113 -copyright notice and disclaimer of warranty; keep intact all the
   1.114 -notices that refer to this License and to the absence of any warranty;
   1.115 -and give any other recipients of the Program a copy of this License
   1.116 -along with the Program.
   1.117 -
   1.118 -You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy, and
   1.119 -you may at your option offer warranty protection in exchange for a fee.
   1.120 -
   1.121 -  2. You may modify your copy or copies of the Program or any portion
   1.122 -of it, thus forming a work based on the Program, and copy and
   1.123 -distribute such modifications or work under the terms of Section 1
   1.124 -above, provided that you also meet all of these conditions:
   1.125 -
   1.126 -    a) You must cause the modified files to carry prominent notices
   1.127 -    stating that you changed the files and the date of any change.
   1.128 -
   1.129 -    b) You must cause any work that you distribute or publish, that in
   1.130 -    whole or in part contains or is derived from the Program or any
   1.131 -    part thereof, to be licensed as a whole at no charge to all third
   1.132 -    parties under the terms of this License.
   1.133 -
   1.134 -    c) If the modified program normally reads commands interactively
   1.135 -    when run, you must cause it, when started running for such
   1.136 -    interactive use in the most ordinary way, to print or display an
   1.137 -    announcement including an appropriate copyright notice and a
   1.138 -    notice that there is no warranty (or else, saying that you provide
   1.139 -    a warranty) and that users may redistribute the program under
   1.140 -    these conditions, and telling the user how to view a copy of this
   1.141 -    License.  (Exception: if the Program itself is interactive but
   1.142 -    does not normally print such an announcement, your work based on
   1.143 -    the Program is not required to print an announcement.)
   1.144 -
   1.145 -These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole.  If
   1.146 -identifiable sections of that work are not derived from the Program,
   1.147 -and can be reasonably considered independent and separate works in
   1.148 -themselves, then this License, and its terms, do not apply to those
   1.149 -sections when you distribute them as separate works.  But when you
   1.150 -distribute the same sections as part of a whole which is a work based
   1.151 -on the Program, the distribution of the whole must be on the terms of
   1.152 -this License, whose permissions for other licensees extend to the
   1.153 -entire whole, and thus to each and every part regardless of who wrote it.
   1.154 -
   1.155 -Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest
   1.156 -your rights to work written entirely by you; rather, the intent is to
   1.157 -exercise the right to control the distribution of derivative or
   1.158 -collective works based on the Program.
   1.159 -
   1.160 -In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the Program
   1.161 -with the Program (or with a work based on the Program) on a volume of
   1.162 -a storage or distribution medium does not bring the other work under
   1.163 -the scope of this License.
   1.164 -
   1.165 -  3. You may copy and distribute the Program (or a work based on it,
   1.166 -under Section 2) in object code or executable form under the terms of
   1.167 -Sections 1 and 2 above provided that you also do one of the following:
   1.168 -
   1.169 -    a) Accompany it with the complete corresponding machine-readable
   1.170 -    source code, which must be distributed under the terms of Sections
   1.171 -    1 and 2 above on a medium customarily used for software interchange; or,
   1.172 -
   1.173 -    b) Accompany it with a written offer, valid for at least three
   1.174 -    years, to give any third party, for a charge no more than your
   1.175 -    cost of physically performing source distribution, a complete
   1.176 -    machine-readable copy of the corresponding source code, to be
   1.177 -    distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium
   1.178 -    customarily used for software interchange; or,
   1.179 -
   1.180 -    c) Accompany it with the information you received as to the offer
   1.181 -    to distribute corresponding source code.  (This alternative is
   1.182 -    allowed only for noncommercial distribution and only if you
   1.183 -    received the program in object code or executable form with such
   1.184 -    an offer, in accord with Subsection b above.)
   1.185 -
   1.186 -The source code for a work means the preferred form of the work for
   1.187 -making modifications to it.  For an executable work, complete source
   1.188 -code means all the source code for all modules it contains, plus any
   1.189 -associated interface definition files, plus the scripts used to
   1.190 -control compilation and installation of the executable.  However, as a
   1.191 -special exception, the source code distributed need not include
   1.192 -anything that is normally distributed (in either source or binary
   1.193 -form) with the major components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of the
   1.194 -operating system on which the executable runs, unless that component
   1.195 -itself accompanies the executable.
   1.196 -
   1.197 -If distribution of executable or object code is made by offering
   1.198 -access to copy from a designated place, then offering equivalent
   1.199 -access to copy the source code from the same place counts as
   1.200 -distribution of the source code, even though third parties are not
   1.201 -compelled to copy the source along with the object code.
   1.202 -
   1.203 -  4. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the Program
   1.204 -except as expressly provided under this License.  Any attempt
   1.205 -otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense or distribute the Program is
   1.206 -void, and will automatically terminate your rights under this License.
   1.207 -However, parties who have received copies, or rights, from you under
   1.208 -this License will not have their licenses terminated so long as such
   1.209 -parties remain in full compliance.
   1.210 -
   1.211 -  5. You are not required to accept this License, since you have not
   1.212 -signed it.  However, nothing else grants you permission to modify or
   1.213 -distribute the Program or its derivative works.  These actions are
   1.214 -prohibited by law if you do not accept this License.  Therefore, by
   1.215 -modifying or distributing the Program (or any work based on the
   1.216 -Program), you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so, and
   1.217 -all its terms and conditions for copying, distributing or modifying
   1.218 -the Program or works based on it.
   1.219 -
   1.220 -  6. Each time you redistribute the Program (or any work based on the
   1.221 -Program), the recipient automatically receives a license from the
   1.222 -original licensor to copy, distribute or modify the Program subject to
   1.223 -these terms and conditions.  You may not impose any further
   1.224 -restrictions on the recipients' exercise of the rights granted herein.
   1.225 -You are not responsible for enforcing compliance by third parties to
   1.226 -this License.
   1.227 -
   1.228 -  7. If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent
   1.229 -infringement or for any other reason (not limited to patent issues),
   1.230 -conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or
   1.231 -otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not
   1.232 -excuse you from the conditions of this License.  If you cannot
   1.233 -distribute so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this
   1.234 -License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you
   1.235 -may not distribute the Program at all.  For example, if a patent
   1.236 -license would not permit royalty-free redistribution of the Program by
   1.237 -all those who receive copies directly or indirectly through you, then
   1.238 -the only way you could satisfy both it and this License would be to
   1.239 -refrain entirely from distribution of the Program.
   1.240 -
   1.241 -If any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable under
   1.242 -any particular circumstance, the balance of the section is intended to
   1.243 -apply and the section as a whole is intended to apply in other
   1.244 -circumstances.
   1.245 -
   1.246 -It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe any
   1.247 -patents or other property right claims or to contest validity of any
   1.248 -such claims; this section has the sole purpose of protecting the
   1.249 -integrity of the free software distribution system, which is
   1.250 -implemented by public license practices.  Many people have made
   1.251 -generous contributions to the wide range of software distributed
   1.252 -through that system in reliance on consistent application of that
   1.253 -system; it is up to the author/donor to decide if he or she is willing
   1.254 -to distribute software through any other system and a licensee cannot
   1.255 -impose that choice.
   1.256 -
   1.257 -This section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is believed to
   1.258 -be a consequence of the rest of this License.
   1.259 -
   1.260 -  8. If the distribution and/or use of the Program is restricted in
   1.261 -certain countries either by patents or by copyrighted interfaces, the
   1.262 -original copyright holder who places the Program under this License
   1.263 -may add an explicit geographical distribution limitation excluding
   1.264 -those countries, so that distribution is permitted only in or among
   1.265 -countries not thus excluded.  In such case, this License incorporates
   1.266 -the limitation as if written in the body of this License.
   1.267 -
   1.268 -  9. The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions
   1.269 -of the General Public License from time to time.  Such new versions will
   1.270 -be similar in spirit to the present version, but may differ in detail to
   1.271 -address new problems or concerns.
   1.272 -
   1.273 -Each version is given a distinguishing version number.  If the Program
   1.274 -specifies a version number of this License which applies to it and "any
   1.275 -later version", you have the option of following the terms and conditions
   1.276 -either of that version or of any later version published by the Free
   1.277 -Software Foundation.  If the Program does not specify a version number of
   1.278 -this License, you may choose any version ever published by the Free Software
   1.279 -Foundation.
   1.280 -
   1.281 -  10. If you wish to incorporate parts of the Program into other free
   1.282 -programs whose distribution conditions are different, write to the author
   1.283 -to ask for permission.  For software which is copyrighted by the Free
   1.284 -Software Foundation, write to the Free Software Foundation; we sometimes
   1.285 -make exceptions for this.  Our decision will be guided by the two goals
   1.286 -of preserving the free status of all derivatives of our free software and
   1.287 -of promoting the sharing and reuse of software generally.
   1.288 -
   1.289 -			    NO WARRANTY
   1.290 -
   1.291 -  11. BECAUSE THE PROGRAM IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE, THERE IS NO WARRANTY
   1.292 -FOR THE PROGRAM, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW.  EXCEPT WHEN
   1.293 -OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER PARTIES
   1.294 -PROVIDE THE PROGRAM "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED
   1.295 -OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF
   1.296 -MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.  THE ENTIRE RISK AS
   1.297 -TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE PROGRAM IS WITH YOU.  SHOULD THE
   1.298 -PROGRAM PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE COST OF ALL NECESSARY SERVICING,
   1.299 -REPAIR OR CORRECTION.
   1.300 -
   1.301 -  12. IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN WRITING
   1.302 -WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MAY MODIFY AND/OR
   1.303 -REDISTRIBUTE THE PROGRAM AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES,
   1.304 -INCLUDING ANY GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING
   1.305 -OUT OF THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED
   1.306 -TO LOSS OF DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY
   1.307 -YOU OR THIRD PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF THE PROGRAM TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER
   1.308 -PROGRAMS), EVEN IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE
   1.309 -POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
   1.310 -
   1.311 -		     END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS
