0001 NOTE! The GPL below is copyrighted by the Free Software Foundation, but 0002 the instance of code that it refers to (the kde programs) are copyrighted 0003 by the authors who actually wrote it. 0004 0005 --------------------------------------------------------------------------- 0006 0007 GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE 0008 Version 2, June 1991 0009 0010 Copyright (C) 1989, 1991 Free Software Foundation, Inc. 0011 51 Franklin Street, Fifth Floor, Boston, MA 02110-1301 USA 0012 Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies 0013 of this license document, but changing it is not allowed. 0014 0015 Preamble 0016 0017 The licenses for most software are designed to take away your 0018 freedom to share and change it. By contrast, the GNU General Public 0019 License is intended to guarantee your freedom to share and change free 0020 software--to make sure the software is free for all its users. This 0021 General Public License applies to most of the Free Software 0022 Foundation's software and to any other program whose authors commit to 0023 using it. (Some other Free Software Foundation software is covered by 0024 the GNU Library General Public License instead.) You can apply it to 0025 your programs, too. 0026 0027 When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not 0028 price. Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that you 0029 have the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge for 0030 this service if you wish), that you receive source code or can get it 0031 if you want it, that you can change the software or use pieces of it 0032 in new free programs; and that you know you can do these things. 0033 0034 To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that forbid 0035 anyone to deny you these rights or to ask you to surrender the rights. 0036 These restrictions translate to certain responsibilities for you if you 0037 distribute copies of the software, or if you modify it. 0038 0039 For example, if you distribute copies of such a program, whether 0040 gratis or for a fee, you must give the recipients all the rights that 0041 you have. You must make sure that they, too, receive or can get the 0042 source code. And you must show them these terms so they know their 0043 rights. 0044 0045 We protect your rights with two steps: (1) copyright the software, and 0046 (2) offer you this license which gives you legal permission to copy, 0047 distribute and/or modify the software. 0048 0049 Also, for each author's protection and ours, we want to make certain 0050 that everyone understands that there is no warranty for this free 0051 software. If the software is modified by someone else and passed on, we 0052 want its recipients to know that what they have is not the original, so 0053 that any problems introduced by others will not reflect on the original 0054 authors' reputations. 0055 0056 Finally, any free program is threatened constantly by software 0057 patents. We wish to avoid the danger that redistributors of a free 0058 program will individually obtain patent licenses, in effect making the 0059 program proprietary. To prevent this, we have made it clear that any 0060 patent must be licensed for everyone's free use or not licensed at all. 0061 0062 The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and 0063 modification follow. 0064 0065 GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE 0066 TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION 0067 0068 0. This License applies to any program or other work which contains 0069 a notice placed by the copyright holder saying it may be distributed 0070 under the terms of this General Public License. The "Program", below, 0071 refers to any such program or work, and a "work based on the Program" 0072 means either the Program or any derivative work under copyright law: 0073 that is to say, a work containing the Program or a portion of it, 0074 either verbatim or with modifications and/or translated into another 0075 language. (Hereinafter, translation is included without limitation in 0076 the term "modification".) Each licensee is addressed as "you". 0077 0078 Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are not 0079 covered by this License; they are outside its scope. The act of 0080 running the Program is not restricted, and the output from the Program 0081 is covered only if its contents constitute a work based on the 0082 Program (independent of having been made by running the Program). 0083 Whether that is true depends on what the Program does. 0084 0085 1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Program's 0086 source code as you receive it, in any medium, provided that you 0087 conspicuously and appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate 0088 copyright notice and disclaimer of warranty; keep intact all the 0089 notices that refer to this License and to the absence of any warranty; 0090 and give any other recipients of the Program a copy of this License 0091 along with the Program. 0092 0093 You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy, and 0094 you may at your option offer warranty protection in exchange for a fee. 0095 0096 2. You may modify your copy or copies of the Program or any portion 0097 of it, thus forming a work based on the Program, and copy and 0098 distribute such modifications or work under the terms of Section 1 0099 above, provided that you also meet all of these conditions: 0100 0101 a) You must cause the modified files to carry prominent notices 0102 stating that you changed the files and the date of any change. 0103 0104 b) You must cause any work that you distribute or publish, that in 0105 whole or in part contains or is derived from the Program or any 0106 part thereof, to be licensed as a whole at no charge to all third 0107 parties under the terms of this License. 0108 0109 c) If the modified program normally reads commands interactively 0110 when run, you must cause it, when started running for such 0111 interactive use in the most ordinary way, to print or display an 0112 announcement including an appropriate copyright notice and a 0113 notice that there is no warranty (or else, saying that you provide 0114 a warranty) and that users may redistribute the program under 0115 these conditions, and telling the user how to view a copy of this 0116 License. (Exception: if the Program itself is interactive but 0117 does not normally print such an announcement, your work based on 0118 the Program is not required to print an announcement.) 0119 0120 These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole. If 0121 identifiable sections of that work are not derived from the Program, 0122 and can be reasonably considered independent and separate works in 0123 themselves, then this License, and its terms, do not apply to those 0124 sections when you distribute them as separate works. But when you 0125 distribute the same sections as part of a whole which is a work based 0126 on the Program, the distribution of the whole must be on the terms of 0127 this License, whose permissions for other licensees extend to the 0128 entire whole, and thus to each and every part regardless of who wrote it. 0129 0130 Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest 0131 your rights to work written entirely by you; rather, the intent is to 0132 exercise the right to control the distribution of derivative or 0133 collective works based on the Program. 0134 0135 In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the Program 0136 with the Program (or with a work based on the Program) on a volume of 0137 a storage or distribution medium does not bring the other work under 0138 the scope of this License. 0139 0140 3. You may copy and distribute the Program (or a work based on it, 0141 under Section 2) in object code or executable form under the terms of 0142 Sections 1 and 2 above provided that you also do one of the following: 0143 0144 a) Accompany it with the complete corresponding machine-readable 0145 source code, which must be distributed under the terms of Sections 0146 1 and 2 above on a medium customarily used for software interchange; or, 0147 0148 b) Accompany it with a written offer, valid for at least three 0149 years, to give any third party, for a charge no more than your 0150 cost of physically performing source distribution, a complete 0151 machine-readable copy of the corresponding source code, to be 0152 distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium 0153 customarily used for software interchange; or, 0154 0155 c) Accompany it with the information you received as to the offer 0156 to distribute corresponding source code. (This alternative is 0157 allowed only for noncommercial distribution and only if you 0158 received the program in object code or executable form with such 0159 an offer, in accord with Subsection b above.) 0160 0161 The source code for a work means the preferred form of the work for 0162 making modifications to it. For an executable work, complete source 0163 code means all the source code for all modules it contains, plus any 0164 associated interface definition files, plus the scripts used to 0165 control compilation and installation of the executable. However, as a 0166 special exception, the source code distributed need not include 0167 anything that is normally distributed (in either source or binary 0168 form) with the major components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of the 0169 operating system on which the executable runs, unless that component 0170 itself accompanies the executable. 0171 0172 If distribution of executable or object code is made by offering 0173 access to copy from a designated place, then offering equivalent 0174 access to copy the source code from the same place counts as 0175 distribution of the source code, even though third parties are not 0176 compelled to copy the source along with the object code. 0177 0178 4. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the Program 0179 except as expressly provided under this License. Any attempt 0180 otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense or distribute the Program is 0181 void, and will automatically terminate your rights under this License. 0182 However, parties who have received copies, or rights, from you under 0183 this License will not have their licenses terminated so long as such 0184 parties remain in full compliance. 0185 0186 5. You are not required to accept this License, since you have not 0187 signed it. However, nothing else grants you permission to modify or 0188 distribute the Program or its derivative works. These actions are 0189 prohibited by law if you do not accept this License. Therefore, by 0190 modifying or distributing the Program (or any work based on the 0191 Program), you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so, and 0192 all its terms and conditions for copying, distributing or modifying 0193 the Program or works based on it. 0194 0195 6. Each time you redistribute the Program (or any work based on the 0196 Program), the recipient automatically receives a license from the 0197 original licensor to copy, distribute or modify the Program subject to 0198 these terms and conditions. You may not impose any further 0199 restrictions on the recipients' exercise of the rights granted herein. 0200 You are not responsible for enforcing compliance by third parties to 0201 this License. 0202 0203 7. If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent 0204 infringement or for any other reason (not limited to patent issues), 0205 conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or 0206 otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not 0207 excuse you from the conditions of this License. If you cannot 0208 distribute so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this 0209 License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you 0210 may not distribute the Program at all. For example, if a patent 0211 license would not permit royalty-free redistribution of the Program by 0212 all those who receive copies directly or indirectly through you, then 0213 the only way you could satisfy both it and this License would be to 0214 refrain entirely from distribution of the Program. 0215 0216 If any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable under 0217 any particular circumstance, the balance of the section is intended to 0218 apply and the section as a whole is intended to apply in other 0219 circumstances. 0220 0221 It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe any 0222 patents or other property right claims or to contest validity of any 0223 such claims; this section has the sole purpose of protecting the 0224 integrity of the free software distribution system, which is 0225 implemented by public license practices. Many people have made 0226 generous contributions to the wide range of software distributed 0227 through that system in reliance on consistent application of that 0228 system; it is up to the author/donor to decide if he or she is willing 0229 to distribute software through any other system and a licensee cannot 0230 impose that choice. 0231 0232 This section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is believed to 0233 be a consequence of the rest of this License. 0234 0235 8. If the distribution and/or use of the Program is restricted in 0236 certain countries either by patents or by copyrighted interfaces, the 0237 original copyright holder who places the Program under this License 0238 may add an explicit geographical distribution limitation excluding 0239 those countries, so that distribution is permitted only in or among 0240 countries not thus excluded. In such case, this License incorporates 0241 the limitation as if written in the body of this License. 0242 0243 9. The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions 0244 of the General Public License from time to time. Such new versions will 0245 be similar in spirit to the present version, but may differ in detail to 0246 address new problems or concerns. 0247 0248 Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the Program 0249 specifies a version number of this License which applies to it and "any 0250 later version", you have the option of following the terms and conditions 0251 either of that version or of any later version published by the Free 0252 Software Foundation. If the Program does not specify a version number of 0253 this License, you may choose any version ever published by the Free Software 0254 Foundation. 0255 0256 10. If you wish to incorporate parts of the Program into other free 0257 programs whose distribution conditions are different, write to the author 0258 to ask for permission. For software which is copyrighted by the Free 0259 Software Foundation, write to the Free Software Foundation; we sometimes 0260 make exceptions for this. Our decision will be guided by the two goals 0261 of preserving the free status of all derivatives of our free software and 0262 of promoting the sharing and reuse of software generally. 0263 0264 NO WARRANTY 0265 0266 11. BECAUSE THE PROGRAM IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE, THERE IS NO WARRANTY 0267 FOR THE PROGRAM, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW. EXCEPT WHEN 0268 OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER PARTIES 0269 PROVIDE THE PROGRAM "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED 0270 OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF 0271 MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. THE ENTIRE RISK AS 0272 TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE PROGRAM IS WITH YOU. SHOULD THE 0273 PROGRAM PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE COST OF ALL NECESSARY SERVICING, 0274 REPAIR OR CORRECTION. 0275 0276 12. IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN WRITING 0277 WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MAY MODIFY AND/OR 0278 REDISTRIBUTE THE PROGRAM AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES, 0279 INCLUDING ANY GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING 0280 OUT OF THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED 0281 TO LOSS OF DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY 0282 YOU OR THIRD PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF THE PROGRAM TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER 0283 PROGRAMS), EVEN IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE 0284 POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. 0285 0286 END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS 0287 0288 How to Apply These Terms to Your New Programs 0289 0290 If you develop a new program, and you want it to be of the greatest 0291 possible use to the public, the best way to achieve this is to make it 0292 free software which everyone can redistribute and change under these terms. 0293 0294 To do so, attach the following notices to the program. It is safest 0295 to attach them to the start of each source file to most effectively 0296 convey the exclusion of warranty; and each file should have at least 0297 the "copyright" line and a pointer to where the full notice is found. 0298 0299 <one line to give the program's name and a brief idea of what it does.> 0300 Copyright (C) 19yy <name of author> 0301 0302 This program is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify 0303 it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by 0304 the Free Software Foundation; either version 2 of the License, or 0305 (at your option) any later version. 0306 0307 This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful, 0308 but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of 0309 MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. See the 0310 GNU General Public License for more details. 0311 0312 You should have received a copy of the GNU General Public License 0313 along with this program; if not, write to the Free Software 0314 Foundation, Inc., 51 Franklin Street, Fifth Floor, Boston, MA 02110-1301 USA 0315 0316 0317 Also add information on how to contact you by electronic and paper mail. 0318 0319 If the program is interactive, make it output a short notice like this 0320 when it starts in an interactive mode: 0321 0322 Gnomovision version 69, Copyright (C) 19yy name of author 0323 Gnomovision comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY; for details type `show w'. 0324 This is free software, and you are welcome to redistribute it 0325 under certain conditions; type `show c' for details. 0326 0327 The hypothetical commands `show w' and `show c' should show the appropriate 0328 parts of the General Public License. Of course, the commands you use may 0329 be called something other than `show w' and `show c'; they could even be 0330 mouse-clicks or menu items--whatever suits your program. 0331 0332 You should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer) or your 0333 school, if any, to sign a "copyright disclaimer" for the program, if 0334 necessary. Here is a sample; alter the names: 0335 0336 Yoyodyne, Inc., hereby disclaims all copyright interest in the program 0337 `Gnomovision' (which makes passes at compilers) written by James Hacker. 0338 0339 <signature of Ty Coon>, 1 April 1989 0340 Ty Coon, President of Vice 0341 0342 This General Public License does not permit incorporating your program into 0343 proprietary programs. If your program is a subroutine library, you may 0344 consider it more useful to permit linking proprietary applications with the 0345 library. If this is what you want to do, use the GNU Library General 0346 Public License instead of this License.
