By contrast, the GNU General Public License is intended to +guarantee your freedom to share and change free software--to make sure the +software is free for all its users. This General Public License applies to +most of the Free Software Foundation's software and to any other program whose +authors commit to using it. (Some other Free Software Foundation software +is covered by the GNU Lesser General Public License instead.) You can apply +it to your programs, too. + +When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not price. Our +General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that you have the freedom +to distribute copies of free software (and charge for this service if you +wish), that you receive source code or can get it if you want it, that you +can change the software or use pieces of it in new free programs; and that +you know you can do these things. + +To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that forbid anyone to +deny you these rights or to ask you to surrender the rights. These restrictions +translate to certain responsibilities for you if you distribute copies of +the software, or if you modify it. + +For example, if you distribute copies of such a program, whether gratis or +for a fee, you must give the recipients all the rights that you have. You +must make sure that they, too, receive or can get the source code. And you +must show them these terms so they know their rights. + +We protect your rights with two steps: (1) copyright the software, and (2) +offer you this license which gives you legal permission to copy, distribute +and/or modify the software. + +Also, for each author's protection and ours, we want to make certain that +everyone understands that there is no warranty for this free software. If +the software is modified by someone else and passed on, we want its recipients +to know that what they have is not the original, so that any problems introduced +by others will not reflect on the original authors' reputations. + +Finally, any free program is threatened constantly by software patents. We +wish to avoid the danger that redistributors of a free program will individually +obtain patent licenses, in effect making the program proprietary. To prevent +this, we have made it clear that any patent must be licensed for everyone's +free use or not licensed at all. + +The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and modification +follow. + +TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION + +0. This License applies to any program or other work which contains a notice +placed by the copyright holder saying it may be distributed under the terms +of this General Public License. The "Program", below, refers to any such program +or work, and a "work based on the Program" means either the Program or any +derivative work under copyright law: that is to say, a work containing the +Program or a portion of it, either verbatim or with modifications and/or translated +into another language. (Hereinafter, translation is included without limitation +in the term "modification".) Each licensee is addressed as "you". + +Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are not covered +by this License; they are outside its scope. The act of running the Program +is not restricted, and the output from the Program is covered only if its +contents constitute a work based on the Program (independent of having been +made by running the Program). Whether that is true depends on what the Program +does. + +1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Program's source code +as you receive it, in any medium, provided that you conspicuously and appropriately +publish on each copy an appropriate copyright notice and disclaimer of warranty; +keep intact all the notices that refer to this License and to the absence +of any warranty; and give any other recipients of the Program a copy of this +License along with the Program. + +You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy, and you +may at your option offer warranty protection in exchange for a fee. + +2. You may modify your copy or copies of the Program or any portion of it, +thus forming a work based on the Program, and copy and distribute such modifications +or work under the terms of Section 1 above, provided that you also meet all +of these conditions: + +a) You must cause the modified files to carry prominent notices stating that +you changed the files and the date of any change. + +b) You must cause any work that you distribute or publish, that in whole or +in part contains or is derived from the Program or any part thereof, to be +licensed as a whole at no charge to all third parties under the terms of this +License. + +c) If the modified program normally reads commands interactively when run, +you must cause it, when started running for such interactive use in the most +ordinary way, to print or display an announcement including an appropriate +copyright notice and a notice that there is no warranty (or else, saying that +you provide a warranty) and that users may redistribute the program under +these conditions, and telling the user how to view a copy of this License. +(Exception: if the Program itself is interactive but does not normally print +such an announcement, your work based on the Program is not required to print +an announcement.) + +These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole. If identifiable +sections of that work are not derived from the Program, and can be reasonably +considered independent and separate works in themselves, then this License, +and its terms, do not apply to those sections when you distribute them as +separate works. But when you distribute the same sections as part of a whole +which is a work based on the Program, the distribution of the whole must be +on the terms of this License, whose permissions for other licensees extend +to the entire whole, and thus to each and every part regardless of who wrote +it. + +Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest your +rights to work written entirely by you; rather, the intent is to exercise +the right to control the distribution of derivative or collective works based +on the Program. + +In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the Program with +the Program (or with a work based on the Program) on a volume of a storage +or distribution medium does not bring the other work under the scope of this +License. + +3. You may copy and distribute the Program (or a work based on it, under Section +2) in object code or executable form under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above +provided that you also do one of the following: + +a) Accompany it with the complete corresponding machine-readable source code, +which must be distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium +customarily used for software interchange; or, + +b) Accompany it with a written offer, valid for at least three years, to give +any third party, for a charge no more than your cost of physically performing +source distribution, a complete machine-readable copy of the corresponding +source code, to be distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on +a medium customarily used for software interchange; or, + +c) Accompany it with the information you received as to the offer to distribute +corresponding source code. (This alternative is allowed only for noncommercial +distribution and only if you received the program in object code or executable +form with such an offer, in accord with Subsection b above.) + +The source code for a work means the preferred form of the work for making +modifications to it. For an executable work, complete source code means all +the source code for all modules it contains, plus any associated interface +definition files, plus the scripts used to control compilation and installation +of the executable. However, as a special exception, the source code distributed +need not include anything that is normally distributed (in either source or +binary form) with the major components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of the +operating system on which the executable runs, unless that component itself +accompanies the executable. + +If distribution of executable or object code is made by offering access to +copy from a designated place, then offering equivalent access to copy the +source code from the same place counts as distribution of the source code, +even though third parties are not compelled to copy the source along with +the object code. + +4. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the Program except +as expressly provided under this License. Any attempt otherwise to copy, modify, +sublicense or distribute the Program is void, and will automatically terminate +your rights under this License. However, parties who have received copies, +or rights, from you under this License will not have their licenses terminated +so long as such parties remain in full compliance. + +5. You are not required to accept this License, since you have not signed +it. However, nothing else grants you permission to modify or distribute the +Program or its derivative works. These actions are prohibited by law if you +do not accept this License. Therefore, by modifying or distributing the Program +(or any work based on the Program), you indicate your acceptance of this License +to do so, and all its terms and conditions for copying, distributing or modifying +the Program or works based on it. + +6. Each time you redistribute the Program (or any work based on the Program), +the recipient automatically receives a license from the original licensor +to copy, distribute or modify the Program subject to these terms and conditions. +You may not impose any further restrictions on the recipients' exercise of +the rights granted herein. You are not responsible for enforcing compliance +by third parties to this License. + +7. If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent infringement +or for any other reason (not limited to patent issues), conditions are imposed +on you (whether by court order, agreement or otherwise) that contradict the +conditions of this License, they do not excuse you from the conditions of +this License. If you cannot distribute so as to satisfy simultaneously your +obligations under this License and any other pertinent obligations, then as +a consequence you may not distribute the Program at all. For example, if a +patent license would not permit royalty-free redistribution of the Program +by all those who receive copies directly or indirectly through you, then the +only way you could satisfy both it and this License would be to refrain entirely +from distribution of the Program. + +If any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable under any +particular circumstance, the balance of the section is intended to apply and +the section as a whole is intended to apply in other circumstances. + +It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe any patents +or other property right claims or to contest validity of any such claims; +this section has the sole purpose of protecting the integrity of the free +software distribution system, which is implemented by public license practices. +Many people have made generous contributions to the wide range of software +distributed through that system in reliance on consistent application of that +system; it is up to the author/donor to decide if he or she is willing to +distribute software through any other system and a licensee cannot impose +that choice. + +This section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is believed to be a +consequence of the rest of this License. + +8. If the distribution and/or use of the Program is restricted in certain +countries either by patents or by copyrighted interfaces, the original copyright +holder who places the Program under this License may add an explicit geographical +distribution limitation excluding those countries, so that distribution is +permitted only in or among countries not thus excluded. In such case, this +License incorporates the limitation as if written in the body of this License. + +9. The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions of +the General Public License from time to time. Such new versions will be similar +in spirit to the present version, but may differ in detail to address new +problems or concerns. + +Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the Program specifies +a version number of this License which applies to it and "any later version", +you have the option of following the terms and conditions either of that version +or of any later version published by the Free Software Foundation. If the +Program does not specify a version number of this License, you may choose +any version ever published by the Free Software Foundation. + +10. If you wish to incorporate parts of the Program into other free programs +whose distribution conditions are different, write to the author to ask for +permission. For software which is copyrighted by the Free Software Foundation, +write to the Free Software Foundation; we sometimes make exceptions for this. +Our decision will be guided by the two goals of preserving the free status +of all derivatives of our free software and of promoting the sharing and reuse +of software generally. + + NO WARRANTY + +11. BECAUSE THE PROGRAM IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE, THERE IS NO WARRANTY FOR +THE PROGRAM, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW. EXCEPT WHEN OTHERWISE +STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER PARTIES PROVIDE THE PROGRAM +"AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, +BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS +FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE +OF THE PROGRAM IS WITH YOU. SHOULD THE PROGRAM PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME +THE COST OF ALL NECESSARY SERVICING, REPAIR OR CORRECTION. + +12. IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN WRITING +WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MAY MODIFY AND/OR REDISTRIBUTE +THE PROGRAM AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES, INCLUDING ANY +GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THE USE +OR INABILITY TO USE THE PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF DATA +OR DATA BEING RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY YOU OR THIRD PARTIES +OR A FAILURE OF THE PROGRAM TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER PROGRAMS), EVEN IF SUCH +HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. +END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS + +How to Apply These Terms to Your New Programs + +If you develop a new program, and you want it to be of the greatest possible +use to the public, the best way to achieve this is to make it free software +which everyone can redistribute and change under these terms. + +To do so, attach the following notices to the program. It is safest to attach +them to the start of each source file to most effectively convey the exclusion +of warranty; and each file should have at least the "copyright" line and a +pointer to where the full notice is found. + +< one line to give the program's name and an idea of what it does. > + +Copyright (C) < yyyy > < name of author > + +This program is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify it under +the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by the Free Software +Foundation; either version 2 of the License, or (at your option) any later +version. + +This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful, but WITHOUT +ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS +FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. See the GNU General Public License for more details. + +You should have received a copy of the GNU General Public License along with +this program; if not, write to the Free Software Foundation, Inc., 51 Franklin +Street, Fifth Floor, Boston, MA 02110-1301 , USA. + +Also add information on how to contact you by electronic and paper mail. + +If the program is interactive, make it output a short notice like this when +it starts in an interactive mode: + +Gnomovision version 69, Copyright (C) year name of author Gnomovision comes +with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY; for details type `show w'. This is free software, +and you are welcome to redistribute it under certain conditions; type `show +c' for details. + +The hypothetical commands `show w' and `show c' should show the appropriate +parts of the General Public License. Of course, the commands you use may be +called something other than `show w' and `show c'; they could even be mouse-clicks +or menu items--whatever suits your program. + +You should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer) or your school, +if any, to sign a "copyright disclaimer" for the program, if necessary. Here +is a sample; alter the names: + +Yoyodyne, Inc., hereby disclaims all copyright interest in the program `Gnomovision' +(which makes passes at compilers) written by James Hacker. + +< signature of Ty Coon > , 1 April 1989 Ty Coon, President of Vice This General +Public License does not permit incorporating your program into proprietary +programs.

It also counts as the +successor of the GNU Library Public License, version 2, hence the version +number 2.1.] + +Preamble + +The licenses for most software are designed to take away your freedom to share +and change it. By contrast, the GNU General Public Licenses are intended to +guarantee your freedom to share and change free software--to make sure the +software is free for all its users. + +This license, the Lesser General Public License, applies to some specially +designated software packages--typically libraries--of the Free Software Foundation +and other authors who decide to use it. You can use it too, but we suggest +you first think carefully about whether this license or the ordinary General +Public License is the better strategy to use in any particular case, based +on the explanations below. + +When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom of use, not price. +Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that you have the freedom +to distribute copies of free software (and charge for this service if you +wish); that you receive source code or can get it if you want it; that you +can change the software and use pieces of it in new free programs; and that +you are informed that you can do these things. + +To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that forbid distributors +to deny you these rights or to ask you to surrender these rights. These restrictions +translate to certain responsibilities for you if you distribute copies of +the library or if you modify it. + +For example, if you distribute copies of the library, whether gratis or for +a fee, you must give the recipients all the rights that we gave you. You must +make sure that they, too, receive or can get the source code. If you link +other code with the library, you must provide complete object files to the +recipients, so that they can relink them with the library after making changes +to the library and recompiling it. And you must show them these terms so they +know their rights. + +We protect your rights with a two-step method: (1) we copyright the library, +and (2) we offer you this license, which gives you legal permission to copy, +distribute and/or modify the library. + +To protect each distributor, we want to make it very clear that there is no +warranty for the free library. Also, if the library is modified by someone +else and passed on, the recipients should know that what they have is not +the original version, so that the original author's reputation will not be +affected by problems that might be introduced by others. + +Finally, software patents pose a constant threat to the existence of any free +program. We wish to make sure that a company cannot effectively restrict the +users of a free program by obtaining a restrictive license from a patent holder. +Therefore, we insist that any patent license obtained for a version of the +library must be consistent with the full freedom of use specified in this +license. + +Most GNU software, including some libraries, is covered by the ordinary GNU +General Public License. This license, the GNU Lesser General Public License, +applies to certain designated libraries, and is quite different from the ordinary +General Public License. We use this license for certain libraries in order +to permit linking those libraries into non-free programs. + +When a program is linked with a library, whether statically or using a shared +library, the combination of the two is legally speaking a combined work, a +derivative of the original library. The ordinary General Public License therefore +permits such linking only if the entire combination fits its criteria of freedom. +The Lesser General Public License permits more lax criteria for linking other +code with the library. + +We call this license the "Lesser" General Public License because it does Less +to protect the user's freedom than the ordinary General Public License. It +also provides other free software developers Less of an advantage over competing +non-free programs. These disadvantages are the reason we use the ordinary +General Public License for many libraries. However, the Lesser license provides +advantages in certain special circumstances. + +For example, on rare occasions, there may be a special need to encourage the +widest possible use of a certain library, so that it becomes a de-facto standard. +To achieve this, non-free programs must be allowed to use the library. A more +frequent case is that a free library does the same job as widely used non-free +libraries. In this case, there is little to gain by limiting the free library +to free software only, so we use the Lesser General Public License. + +In other cases, permission to use a particular library in non-free programs +enables a greater number of people to use a large body of free software. For +example, permission to use the GNU C Library in non-free programs enables +many more people to use the whole GNU operating system, as well as its variant, +the GNU/Linux operating system. + +Although the Lesser General Public License is Less protective of the users' +freedom, it does ensure that the user of a program that is linked with the +Library has the freedom and the wherewithal to run that program using a modified +version of the Library. + +The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and modification +follow. Pay close attention to the difference between a "work based on the +library" and a "work that uses the library". The former contains code derived +from the library, whereas the latter must be combined with the library in +order to run. + +TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION + +0. This License Agreement applies to any software library or other program +which contains a notice placed by the copyright holder or other authorized +party saying it may be distributed under the terms of this Lesser General +Public License (also called "this License"). Each licensee is addressed as +"you". + +A "library" means a collection of software functions and/or data prepared +so as to be conveniently linked with application programs (which use some +of those functions and data) to form executables. + +The "Library", below, refers to any such software library or work which has +been distributed under these terms. A "work based on the Library" means either +the Library or any derivative work under copyright law: that is to say, a +work containing the Library or a portion of it, either verbatim or with modifications +and/or translated straightforwardly into another language. (Hereinafter, translation +is included without limitation in the term "modification".) + +"Source code" for a work means the preferred form of the work for making modifications +to it. For a library, complete source code means all the source code for all +modules it contains, plus any associated interface definition files, plus +the scripts used to control compilation and installation of the library. + +Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are not covered +by this License; they are outside its scope. The act of running a program +using the Library is not restricted, and output from such a program is covered +only if its contents constitute a work based on the Library (independent of +the use of the Library in a tool for writing it). Whether that is true depends +on what the Library does and what the program that uses the Library does. + +1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Library's complete source +code as you receive it, in any medium, provided that you conspicuously and +appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate copyright notice and disclaimer +of warranty; keep intact all the notices that refer to this License and to +the absence of any warranty; and distribute a copy of this License along with +the Library. + +You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy, and you +may at your option offer warranty protection in exchange for a fee. + +2. You may modify your copy or copies of the Library or any portion of it, +thus forming a work based on the Library, and copy and distribute such modifications +or work under the terms of Section 1 above, provided that you also meet all +of these conditions: + + a) The modified work must itself be a software library. + +b) You must cause the files modified to carry prominent notices stating that +you changed the files and the date of any change. + +c) You must cause the whole of the work to be licensed at no charge to all +third parties under the terms of this License. + +d) If a facility in the modified Library refers to a function or a table of +data to be supplied by an application program that uses the facility, other +than as an argument passed when the facility is invoked, then you must make +a good faith effort to ensure that, in the event an application does not supply +such function or table, the facility still operates, and performs whatever +part of its purpose remains meaningful. + +(For example, a function in a library to compute square roots has a purpose +that is entirely well-defined independent of the application. Therefore, Subsection +2d requires that any application-supplied function or table used by this function +must be optional: if the application does not supply it, the square root function +must still compute square roots.) + +These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole. If identifiable +sections of that work are not derived from the Library, and can be reasonably +considered independent and separate works in themselves, then this License, +and its terms, do not apply to those sections when you distribute them as +separate works. But when you distribute the same sections as part of a whole +which is a work based on the Library, the distribution of the whole must be +on the terms of this License, whose permissions for other licensees extend +to the entire whole, and thus to each and every part regardless of who wrote +it. + +Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest your +rights to work written entirely by you; rather, the intent is to exercise +the right to control the distribution of derivative or collective works based +on the Library. + +In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the Library with +the Library (or with a work based on the Library) on a volume of a storage +or distribution medium does not bring the other work under the scope of this +License. + +3. You may opt to apply the terms of the ordinary GNU General Public License +instead of this License to a given copy of the Library. To do this, you must +alter all the notices that refer to this License, so that they refer to the +ordinary GNU General Public License, version 2, instead of to this License. +(If a newer version than version 2 of the ordinary GNU General Public License +has appeared, then you can specify that version instead if you wish.) Do not +make any other change in these notices. + +Once this change is made in a given copy, it is irreversible for that copy, +so the ordinary GNU General Public License applies to all subsequent copies +and derivative works made from that copy. + +This option is useful when you wish to copy part of the code of the Library +into a program that is not a library. + +4. You may copy and distribute the Library (or a portion or derivative of +it, under Section 2) in object code or executable form under the terms of +Sections 1 and 2 above provided that you accompany it with the complete corresponding +machine-readable source code, which must be distributed under the terms of +Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium customarily used for software interchange. + +If distribution of object code is made by offering access to copy from a designated +place, then offering equivalent access to copy the source code from the same +place satisfies the requirement to distribute the source code, even though +third parties are not compelled to copy the source along with the object code. + +5. A program that contains no derivative of any portion of the Library, but +is designed to work with the Library by being compiled or linked with it, +is called a "work that uses the Library". Such a work, in isolation, is not +a derivative work of the Library, and therefore falls outside the scope of +this License. + +However, linking a "work that uses the Library" with the Library creates an +executable that is a derivative of the Library (because it contains portions +of the Library), rather than a "work that uses the library". The executable +is therefore covered by this License. Section 6 states terms for distribution +of such executables. + +When a "work that uses the Library" uses material from a header file that +is part of the Library, the object code for the work may be a derivative work +of the Library even though the source code is not. Whether this is true is +especially significant if the work can be linked without the Library, or if +the work is itself a library. The threshold for this to be true is not precisely +defined by law. + +If such an object file uses only numerical parameters, data structure layouts +and accessors, and small macros and small inline functions (ten lines or less +in length), then the use of the object file is unrestricted, regardless of +whether it is legally a derivative work. (Executables containing this object +code plus portions of the Library will still fall under Section 6.) + +Otherwise, if the work is a derivative of the Library, you may distribute +the object code for the work under the terms of Section 6. Any executables +containing that work also fall under Section 6, whether or not they are linked +directly with the Library itself. + +6. As an exception to the Sections above, you may also combine or link a "work +that uses the Library" with the Library to produce a work containing portions +of the Library, and distribute that work under terms of your choice, provided +that the terms permit modification of the work for the customer's own use +and reverse engineering for debugging such modifications. + +You must give prominent notice with each copy of the work that the Library +is used in it and that the Library and its use are covered by this License. +You must supply a copy of this License. If the work during execution displays +copyright notices, you must include the copyright notice for the Library among +them, as well as a reference directing the user to the copy of this License. +Also, you must do one of these things: + +a) Accompany the work with the complete corresponding machine-readable source +code for the Library including whatever changes were used in the work (which +must be distributed under Sections 1 and 2 above); and, if the work is an +executable linked with the Library, with the complete machine-readable "work +that uses the Library", as object code and/or source code, so that the user +can modify the Library and then relink to produce a modified executable containing +the modified Library. (It is understood that the user who changes the contents +of definitions files in the Library will not necessarily be able to recompile +the application to use the modified definitions.) + +b) Use a suitable shared library mechanism for linking with the Library. A +suitable mechanism is one that (1) uses at run time a copy of the library +already present on the user's computer system, rather than copying library +functions into the executable, and (2) will operate properly with a modified +version of the library, if the user installs one, as long as the modified +version is interface-compatible with the version that the work was made with. + +c) Accompany the work with a written offer, valid for at least three years, +to give the same user the materials specified in Subsection 6a, above, for +a charge no more than the cost of performing this distribution. + +d) If distribution of the work is made by offering access to copy from a designated +place, offer equivalent access to copy the above specified materials from +the same place. + +e) Verify that the user has already received a copy of these materials or +that you have already sent this user a copy. + +For an executable, the required form of the "work that uses the Library" must +include any data and utility programs needed for reproducing the executable +from it. However, as a special exception, the materials to be distributed +need not include anything that is normally distributed (in either source or +binary form) with the major components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of the +operating system on which the executable runs, unless that component itself +accompanies the executable. + +It may happen that this requirement contradicts the license restrictions of +other proprietary libraries that do not normally accompany the operating system. +Such a contradiction means you cannot use both them and the Library together +in an executable that you distribute. + +7. You may place library facilities that are a work based on the Library side-by-side +in a single library together with other library facilities not covered by +this License, and distribute such a combined library, provided that the separate +distribution of the work based on the Library and of the other library facilities +is otherwise permitted, and provided that you do these two things: + +a) Accompany the combined library with a copy of the same work based on the +Library, uncombined with any other library facilities. This must be distributed +under the terms of the Sections above. + +b) Give prominent notice with the combined library of the fact that part of +it is a work based on the Library, and explaining where to find the accompanying +uncombined form of the same work. + +8. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, link with, or distribute the Library +except as expressly provided under this License. Any attempt otherwise to +copy, modify, sublicense, link with, or distribute the Library is void, and +will automatically terminate your rights under this License. However, parties +who have received copies, or rights, from you under this License will not +have their licenses terminated so long as such parties remain in full compliance. + +9. You are not required to accept this License, since you have not signed +it. However, nothing else grants you permission to modify or distribute the +Library or its derivative works. These actions are prohibited by law if you +do not accept this License. Therefore, by modifying or distributing the Library +(or any work based on the Library), you indicate your acceptance of this License +to do so, and all its terms and conditions for copying, distributing or modifying +the Library or works based on it. + +10. Each time you redistribute the Library (or any work based on the Library), +the recipient automatically receives a license from the original licensor +to copy, distribute, link with or modify the Library subject to these terms +and conditions. You may not impose any further restrictions on the recipients' +exercise of the rights granted herein. You are not responsible for enforcing +compliance by third parties with this License. + +11. If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent infringement +or for any other reason (not limited to patent issues), conditions are imposed +on you (whether by court order, agreement or otherwise) that contradict the +conditions of this License, they do not excuse you from the conditions of +this License. If you cannot distribute so as to satisfy simultaneously your +obligations under this License and any other pertinent obligations, then as +a consequence you may not distribute the Library at all. For example, if a +patent license would not permit royalty-free redistribution of the Library +by all those who receive copies directly or indirectly through you, then the +only way you could satisfy both it and this License would be to refrain entirely +from distribution of the Library. + +If any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable under any +particular circumstance, the balance of the section is intended to apply, +and the section as a whole is intended to apply in other circumstances. + +It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe any patents +or other property right claims or to contest validity of any such claims; +this section has the sole purpose of protecting the integrity of the free +software distribution system which is implemented by public license practices. +Many people have made generous contributions to the wide range of software +distributed through that system in reliance on consistent application of that +system; it is up to the author/donor to decide if he or she is willing to +distribute software through any other system and a licensee cannot impose +that choice. + +This section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is believed to be a +consequence of the rest of this License. + +12. If the distribution and/or use of the Library is restricted in certain +countries either by patents or by copyrighted interfaces, the original copyright +holder who places the Library under this License may add an explicit geographical +distribution limitation excluding those countries, so that distribution is +permitted only in or among countries not thus excluded. In such case, this +License incorporates the limitation as if written in the body of this License. + +13. The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions of +the Lesser General Public License from time to time. Such new versions will +be similar in spirit to the present version, but may differ in detail to address +new problems or concerns. + +Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the Library specifies +a version number of this License which applies to it and "any later version", +you have the option of following the terms and conditions either of that version +or of any later version published by the Free Software Foundation. If the +Library does not specify a license version number, you may choose any version +ever published by the Free Software Foundation. + +14.

For software which is copyrighted by the Free Software +Foundation, write to the Free Software Foundation; we sometimes make exceptions +for this.

Aside from that, individual files can be provided under a dual license, e.g. one of the compatible GPL variants and alternatively under a permissive license like BSD, MIT etc. + +## The SPDX License Identifier +The common way of expressing the license of a source file is to add the matching boilerplate text into the top comment of the file. Due to formatting, typos etc. these "boilerplates" are hard to validate for tools which are used in the context of license compliance. + +An alternative to boilerplate text is the use of Software Package Data Exchange (SPDX) license identifiers in each source file. SPDX license identifiers are machine parsable and precise shorthands for the license under which the content of the file is contributed. SPDX license identifiers are managed by the SPDX Workgroup at the Linux Foundation and have been agreed on by partners throughout the industry, tool vendors, and legal teams. For further information see **[spdx.org](https://spdx.org/)**. + +Kodi requires the precise SPDX identifier in all source files. The valid identifiers used in Kodi have been retrieved from the official **[SPDX License List](https://spdx.org/licenses/)** along with the license texts. + +### License Identifier Placement +The SPDX license identifier in Kodi files shall be added at the top of the file. + +### License Identifier Syntax +A `<SPDX License Expression>` is either an SPDX short form license identifier found on the **[SPDX License List](https://spdx.org/licenses/)**, or the combination of two SPDX short form license identifiers separated by `WITH` when a license exception applies. When multiple licenses apply, an expression consists of keywords `AND`, `OR` separating sub-expressions. See SPDX License Expression **[usage guide](https://spdx.org/ids)** for more information. + +### License Identifier Style +The SPDX license identifier is added in the form of a comment. The comment style depends on the file type. For a C/C++ header or source file, the format must be +``` +/* + * Copyright (C) <year> <copyright holders> + * This file is part of <software> - <URL> + * + * SPDX-License-Identifier: <SPDX License Expression> + * See <license file/license index file> for more information. + */ +``` + +Since most source files in Kodi are `GPL-2.0-or-later` licensed, the typical copyright notice will look like this: +``` +/* + * Copyright (C) 2005-2018 Team Kodi + * This file is part of Kodi - https://kodi.tv + * + * SPDX-License-Identifier: GPL-2.0-or-later + * See LICENSES/README.md for more information. + */ +``` + +**NOTE:** Kodi is developed and maintained by Kodi Team members and the open-source community.
