To “propagate” a work means to do anything with it that, without permission, would make you directly or secondarily liable for infringement under applicable
copyright law, except execung it on a computer or modifying a private copy. Propagaon includes copying, distribuon (with or without modicaon),
making available to the public, and in some countries other acvies as well.
To “convey” a work means any kind of propagaon that enables other pares to make or receive copies. Mere interacon with a user through a computer
network, with no transfer of a copy, is not conveying.
An interacve user interface displays “Appropriate Legal Noces” to the extent that it includes a convenient and prominently visible feature that (1) displays
an appropriate copyright noce, and (2) tells the user that there is no warranty for the work (except to the extent that warranes are provided), that licensees
may convey the work under this License, and how to view a copy of this License. If the interface presents a list of user commands or opons, such as a menu,
a prominent item in the list meets this criterion.
1. Source Code.
The “source code” for a work means the preferred form of the work for making modicaons to it. “Object code” means any non-source form of a work.
A “Standard Interface” means an interface that either is an ocial standard dened by a recognized standards body, or, in the case of interfaces specied for a
parcular programming language, one that is widely used among developers working in that language.
The “System Libraries” of an executable work include anything, other than the work as a whole, that (a) is included in the normal form of packaging a Major
Component, but which is not part of that Major Component, and (b) serves only to enable use of the work with that Major Component, or to implement a
Standard Interface for which an implementaon is available to the public in source code form. A “Major Component”, in this context, means a major essenal
component (kernel, window system, and so on) of the specic operang system (if any) on which the executable work runs, or a compiler used to produce the
work, or an object code interpreter used to run it.
The “Corresponding Source” for a work in object code form means all the source code needed to generate, install, and (for an executable work) run the
object code and to modify the work, including scripts to control those acvies. However, it does not include the work’s System Libraries, or general-purpose
tools or generally available free programs which are used unmodied in performing those acvies but which are not part of the work. For example,
Corresponding Source includes interface denion les associated with source les for the work, and the source code for shared libraries and dynamically
linked subprograms that the work is specically designed to require, such as by inmate data communicaon or control ow between those subprograms and
other parts of the work.
The Corresponding Source need not include anything that users can regenerate automacally from other parts of the Corresponding Source.
The Corresponding Source for a work in source code form is that same work.
2. Basic Permissions.
All rights granted under this License are granted for the term of copyright on the Program, and are irrevocable provided the stated condions are met. This
License explicitly arms your unlimited permission to run the unmodied Program. The output from running a covered work is covered by this License only if
the output, given its content, constutes a covered work. This License acknowledges your rights of fair use or other equivalent, as provided by copyright law.
You may make, run and propagate covered works that you do not convey, without condions so long as your license otherwise remains in force. You may
convey covered works to others for the sole purpose of having them make modicaons exclusively for you, or provide you with facilies for running those
works, provided that you comply with the terms of this License in conveying all material for which you do not control copyright. Those thus making or running
the covered works for you must do so exclusively on your behalf, under your direcon and control, on terms that prohibit them from making any copies of
your copyrighted material outside their relaonship with you.
Conveying under any other circumstances is permied solely under the condions stated below. Sublicensing is not allowed; secon 10 makes it unnecessary.
3. Protecng Users’ Legal Rights From An-Circumvenon Law.
No covered work shall be deemed part of an eecve technological measure under any applicable law fullling obligaons under arcle 11 of the WIPO
copyright treaty adopted on 20 December 1996, or similar laws prohibing or restricng circumvenon of such measures.
When you convey a covered work, you waive any legal power to forbid circumvenon of technological measures to the extent such circumvenon is eected
by exercising rights under this License with respect to the covered work, and you disclaim any intenon to limit operaon or modicaon of the work as a
means of enforcing, against the work’s users, your or third pares’ legal rights to forbid circumvenon of technological measures.
4. Conveying Verbam Copies.
You may convey verbam 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 noce; keep intact all noces stang that this License and any non-permissive terms added in accord with secon 7 apply
to the code; keep intact all noces of the absence of any warranty; and give all recipients a copy of this License along with the Program.
You may charge any price or no price for each copy that you convey, and you may oer support or warranty protecon for a fee.
5. Conveying Modied Source Versions.
You may convey a work based on the Program, or the modicaons to produce it from the Program, in the form of source code under the terms of secon 4,
provided that you also meet all of these condions:
•a) The work must carry prominent noces stang that you modied it, and giving a relevant date.
•b) The work must carry prominent noces stang that it is released under this License and any condions added under secon 7. This requirement modies
the requirement in secon 4 to “keep intact all noces”.
