6d05b41aaef2a56d8d806b2cbf3ab08a1b4990e6Michael Graff To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that forbid<br>
6d05b41aaef2a56d8d806b2cbf3ab08a1b4990e6Michael Graffanyone to deny you these rights or to ask you to surrender the rights.<br>
6d05b41aaef2a56d8d806b2cbf3ab08a1b4990e6Michael GraffThese restrictions translate to certain responsibilities for you if you<br>

6d05b41aaef2a56d8d806b2cbf3ab08a1b4990e6Michael Graff For example, if you distribute copies of such a program, whether<br>
6d05b41aaef2a56d8d806b2cbf3ab08a1b4990e6Michael Graffgratis or for a fee, you must give the recipients all the rights that<br>
6d05b41aaef2a56d8d806b2cbf3ab08a1b4990e6Michael Graffyou have. You must make sure that they, too, receive or can get the<br>

6d05b41aaef2a56d8d806b2cbf3ab08a1b4990e6Michael Graff We protect your rights with two steps: (1) copyright the software, and<br>
6d05b41aaef2a56d8d806b2cbf3ab08a1b4990e6Michael Graff(2) offer you this license which gives you legal permission to copy,<br>
6d05b41aaef2a56d8d806b2cbf3ab08a1b4990e6Michael Graff Also, for each author's protection and ours, we want to make certain<br>
6d05b41aaef2a56d8d806b2cbf3ab08a1b4990e6Michael Graffthat everyone understands that there is no warranty for this free<br>

231c2cf6142186dd8def2764af29ab60c57eb240Michael Graff interactive use in the most ordinary way, to print or display an<br>

9f1c521285be0e4ebbb4af2b9ad32ed045257aa9Michael Graff notice that there is no warranty (or else, saying that you provide<br>

6d05b41aaef2a56d8d806b2cbf3ab08a1b4990e6Michael Graff does not normally print such an announcement, your work based on<br>
7f9e7076849ac56b03c6f578c22a47c81aa5d171Michael Graff the Program is not required to print an announcement.)<br>
7f9e7076849ac56b03c6f578c22a47c81aa5d171Michael GraffThese requirements apply to the modified work as a whole. If<br>
a21e2e7fea21498dde43d69f9679d7233f13955aMichael Graffidentifiable sections of that work are not derived from the Program,<br>
7f9e7076849ac56b03c6f578c22a47c81aa5d171Michael Graffand can be reasonably considered independent and separate works in<br>
7f9e7076849ac56b03c6f578c22a47c81aa5d171Michael Graffthemselves, then this License, and its terms, do not apply to those<br>
7f9e7076849ac56b03c6f578c22a47c81aa5d171Michael Graffsections when you distribute them as separate works. But when you<br>

6d05b41aaef2a56d8d806b2cbf3ab08a1b4990e6Michael GraffThus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest<br>

7251d776466396a2a8f2769c8fa0c13e4db8ef9cMichael Graff a) Accompany it with the complete corresponding machine-readable<br>
7251d776466396a2a8f2769c8fa0c13e4db8ef9cMichael Graff source code, which must be distributed under the terms of Sections<br>

6d05b41aaef2a56d8d806b2cbf3ab08a1b4990e6Michael Graff distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium<br>

6d05b41aaef2a56d8d806b2cbf3ab08a1b4990e6Michael Graff an offer, in accord with Subsection b above.)<br>
86bbe826f056144100837b9801cb834b636fe8f6Bob HalleyThe source code for a work means the preferred form of the work for<br>

3740b569ae76295b941d57a724a43beb75b533baBob Halleycode means all the source code for all modules it contains, plus any<br>
6d05b41aaef2a56d8d806b2cbf3ab08a1b4990e6Michael Graffassociated interface definition files, plus the scripts used to<br>
6d05b41aaef2a56d8d806b2cbf3ab08a1b4990e6Michael Graffcontrol compilation and installation of the executable. However, as a<br>
6d05b41aaef2a56d8d806b2cbf3ab08a1b4990e6Michael Graffspecial exception, the source code distributed need not include<br>

6d05b41aaef2a56d8d806b2cbf3ab08a1b4990e6Michael GraffIf distribution of executable or object code is made by offering<br>
6d05b41aaef2a56d8d806b2cbf3ab08a1b4990e6Michael Graffaccess to copy from a designated place, then offering equivalent<br>
6d05b41aaef2a56d8d806b2cbf3ab08a1b4990e6Michael Graffaccess to copy the source code from the same place counts as<br>

a0084eaa9f134e32d456537c67d2db7516aba867Michael Graff 6. Each time you redistribute the Program (or any work based on the<br>

a0084eaa9f134e32d456537c67d2db7516aba867Michael Graffexcuse you from the conditions of this License. If you cannot<br>
a0084eaa9f134e32d456537c67d2db7516aba867Michael Graffdistribute so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this<br>
a0084eaa9f134e32d456537c67d2db7516aba867Michael GraffLicense and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you<br>
a0084eaa9f134e32d456537c67d2db7516aba867Michael Graffmay not distribute the Program at all. For example, if a patent<br>
a0084eaa9f134e32d456537c67d2db7516aba867Michael Grafflicense would not permit royalty-free redistribution of the Program by<br>
a0084eaa9f134e32d456537c67d2db7516aba867Michael Graffall those who receive copies directly or indirectly through you, then<br>
a0084eaa9f134e32d456537c67d2db7516aba867Michael Graffthe only way you could satisfy both it and this License would be to<br>

7251d776466396a2a8f2769c8fa0c13e4db8ef9cMichael GraffThis section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is believed to<br>

6d05b41aaef2a56d8d806b2cbf3ab08a1b4990e6Michael Graff If you develop a new program, and you want it to be of the greatest<br>
6d05b41aaef2a56d8d806b2cbf3ab08a1b4990e6Michael Graffpossible use to the public, the best way to achieve this is to make it<br>

6d05b41aaef2a56d8d806b2cbf3ab08a1b4990e6Michael Graff To do so, attach the following notices to the program. It is safest<br>
