3857c4
+ Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies
3857c4
+ of this license document, but changing it is not allowed.
3857c4
+
3857c4
+[This is the first released version of the Lesser GPL.  It also counts
3857c4
+ as the successor of the GNU Library Public License, version 2, hence
3857c4
+ the version number 2.1.]
3857c4
+
3857c4
+			    Preamble
3857c4
+
3857c4
+  The licenses for most software are designed to take away your
3857c4
+freedom to share and change it.  By contrast, the GNU General Public
3857c4
+Licenses are intended to guarantee your freedom to share and change
3857c4
+free software--to make sure the software is free for all its users.
3857c4
+
3857c4
+  This license, the Lesser General Public License, applies to some
3857c4
+specially designated software packages--typically libraries--of the
3857c4
+Free Software Foundation and other authors who decide to use it.  You
3857c4
+can use it too, but we suggest you first think carefully about whether
3857c4
+this license or the ordinary General Public License is the better
3857c4
+strategy to use in any particular case, based on the explanations below.
3857c4
+
3857c4
+  When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom of use,
3857c4
+not price.  Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that
3857c4
+you have the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge
3857c4
+for this service if you wish); that you receive source code or can get
3857c4
+it if you want it; that you can change the software and use pieces of
3857c4
+it in new free programs; and that you are informed that you can do
3857c4
+these things.
3857c4
+
3857c4
+  To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that forbid
3857c4
+distributors to deny you these rights or to ask you to surrender these
3857c4
+rights.  These restrictions translate to certain responsibilities for
3857c4
+you if you distribute copies of the library or if you modify it.
3857c4
+
3857c4
+  For example, if you distribute copies of the library, whether gratis
3857c4
+or for a fee, you must give the recipients all the rights that we gave
3857c4
+you.  You must make sure that they, too, receive or can get the source
3857c4
+code.  If you link other code with the library, you must provide
3857c4
+complete object files to the recipients, so that they can relink them
3857c4
+with the library after making changes to the library and recompiling
3857c4
+it.  And you must show them these terms so they know their rights.
3857c4
+
3857c4
+  We protect your rights with a two-step method: (1) we copyright the
3857c4
+library, and (2) we offer you this license, which gives you legal
3857c4
+permission to copy, distribute and/or modify the library.
3857c4
+
3857c4
+  To protect each distributor, we want to make it very clear that
3857c4
+there is no warranty for the free library.  Also, if the library is
3857c4
+modified by someone else and passed on, the recipients should know
3857c4
+that what they have is not the original version, so that the original
3857c4
+author's reputation will not be affected by problems that might be
3857c4
+introduced by others.
3857c4
+
3857c4
+  Finally, software patents pose a constant threat to the existence of
3857c4
+any free program.  We wish to make sure that a company cannot
3857c4
+effectively restrict the users of a free program by obtaining a
3857c4
+restrictive license from a patent holder.  Therefore, we insist that
3857c4
+any patent license obtained for a version of the library must be
3857c4
+consistent with the full freedom of use specified in this license.
3857c4
+
3857c4
+  Most GNU software, including some libraries, is covered by the
3857c4
+ordinary GNU General Public License.  This license, the GNU Lesser
3857c4
+General Public License, applies to certain designated libraries, and
3857c4
+is quite different from the ordinary General Public License.  We use
3857c4
+this license for certain libraries in order to permit linking those
3857c4
+libraries into non-free programs.
3857c4
+
3857c4
+  When a program is linked with a library, whether statically or using
3857c4
+a shared library, the combination of the two is legally speaking a
3857c4
+combined work, a derivative of the original library.  The ordinary
3857c4
+General Public License therefore permits such linking only if the
3857c4
+entire combination fits its criteria of freedom.  The Lesser General
3857c4
+Public License permits more lax criteria for linking other code with
3857c4
+the library.
3857c4
+
3857c4
+  We call this license the "Lesser" General Public License because it
3857c4
+does Less to protect the user's freedom than the ordinary General
3857c4
+Public License.  It also provides other free software developers Less
3857c4
+of an advantage over competing non-free programs.  These disadvantages
3857c4
+are the reason we use the ordinary General Public License for many
3857c4
+libraries.  However, the Lesser license provides advantages in certain
3857c4
+special circumstances.
3857c4
+
3857c4
+  For example, on rare occasions, there may be a special need to
3857c4
+encourage the widest possible use of a certain library, so that it becomes
3857c4
+a de-facto standard.  To achieve this, non-free programs must be
3857c4
+allowed to use the library.  A more frequent case is that a free
3857c4
+library does the same job as widely used non-free libraries.  In this
3857c4
+case, there is little to gain by limiting the free library to free
3857c4
+software only, so we use the Lesser General Public License.
3857c4
+
3857c4
+  In other cases, permission to use a particular library in non-free
3857c4
+programs enables a greater number of people to use a large body of
3857c4
+free software.  For example, permission to use the GNU C Library in
3857c4
+non-free programs enables many more people to use the whole GNU
3857c4
+operating system, as well as its variant, the GNU/Linux operating
3857c4
+system.
3857c4
+
3857c4
+  Although the Lesser General Public License is Less protective of the
3857c4
+users' freedom, it does ensure that the user of a program that is
3857c4
+linked with the Library has the freedom and the wherewithal to run
3857c4
+that program using a modified version of the Library.
3857c4
+
3857c4
+  The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and
3857c4
+modification follow.  Pay close attention to the difference between a
3857c4
+"work based on the library" and a "work that uses the library".  The
3857c4
+former contains code derived from the library, whereas the latter must
3857c4
+be combined with the library in order to run.
3857c4
+
3857c4
+		  GNU LESSER GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE
3857c4
+   TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION
3857c4
+
3857c4
+  0. This License Agreement applies to any software library or other
3857c4
+program which contains a notice placed by the copyright holder or
3857c4
+other authorized party saying it may be distributed under the terms of
3857c4
+this Lesser General Public License (also called "this License").
3857c4
+Each licensee is addressed as "you".
3857c4
+
3857c4
+  A "library" means a collection of software functions and/or data
3857c4
+prepared so as to be conveniently linked with application programs
3857c4
+(which use some of those functions and data) to form executables.
3857c4
+
3857c4
+  The "Library", below, refers to any such software library or work
3857c4
+which has been distributed under these terms.  A "work based on the
3857c4
+Library" means either the Library or any derivative work under
3857c4
+copyright law: that is to say, a work containing the Library or a
3857c4
+portion of it, either verbatim or with modifications and/or translated
3857c4
+straightforwardly into another language.  (Hereinafter, translation is
3857c4
+included without limitation in the term "modification".)
3857c4
+
3857c4
+  "Source code" for a work means the preferred form of the work for
3857c4
+making modifications to it.  For a library, complete source code means
3857c4
+all the source code for all modules it contains, plus any associated
3857c4
+interface definition files, plus the scripts used to control compilation
3857c4
+and installation of the library.
3857c4
+
3857c4
+  Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are not
3857c4
+covered by this License; they are outside its scope.  The act of
3857c4
+running a program using the Library is not restricted, and output from
3857c4
+such a program is covered only if its contents constitute a work based
3857c4
+on the Library (independent of the use of the Library in a tool for
3857c4
+writing it).  Whether that is true depends on what the Library does
3857c4
+and what the program that uses the Library does.
3857c4
+
3857c4
+  1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Library's
3857c4
+complete source code as you receive it, in any medium, provided that
3857c4
+you conspicuously and appropriately publish on each copy an
3857c4
+appropriate copyright notice and disclaimer of warranty; keep intact
3857c4
+all the notices that refer to this License and to the absence of any
3857c4
+warranty; and distribute a copy of this License along with the
3857c4
+Library.
3857c4
+
3857c4
+  You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy,
3857c4
+and you may at your option offer warranty protection in exchange for a
3857c4
+fee.
3857c4
+
3857c4
+  2. You may modify your copy or copies of the Library or any portion
3857c4
+of it, thus forming a work based on the Library, and copy and
3857c4
+distribute such modifications or work under the terms of Section 1
3857c4
+above, provided that you also meet all of these conditions:
3857c4
+
3857c4
+    a) The modified work must itself be a software library.
3857c4
+
3857c4
+    b) You must cause the files modified to carry prominent notices
3857c4
+    stating that you changed the files and the date of any change.
3857c4
+
3857c4
+    c) You must cause the whole of the work to be licensed at no
3857c4
+    charge to all third parties under the terms of this License.
3857c4
+
3857c4
+    d) If a facility in the modified Library refers to a function or a
3857c4
+    table of data to be supplied by an application program that uses
3857c4
+    the facility, other than as an argument passed when the facility
3857c4
+    is invoked, then you must make a good faith effort to ensure that,
3857c4
+    in the event an application does not supply such function or
3857c4
+    table, the facility still operates, and performs whatever part of
3857c4
+    its purpose remains meaningful.
3857c4
+
3857c4
+    (For example, a function in a library to compute square roots has
3857c4
+    a purpose that is entirely well-defined independent of the
3857c4
+    application.  Therefore, Subsection 2d requires that any
3857c4
+    application-supplied function or table used by this function must
3857c4
+    be optional: if the application does not supply it, the square
3857c4
+    root function must still compute square roots.)
3857c4
+
3857c4
+These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole.  If
3857c4
+identifiable sections of that work are not derived from the Library,
3857c4
+and can be reasonably considered independent and separate works in
3857c4
+themselves, then this License, and its terms, do not apply to those
3857c4
+sections when you distribute them as separate works.  But when you
3857c4
+distribute the same sections as part of a whole which is a work based
3857c4
+on the Library, the distribution of the whole must be on the terms of
3857c4
+this License, whose permissions for other licensees extend to the
3857c4
+entire whole, and thus to each and every part regardless of who wrote
3857c4
+it.
3857c4
+
3857c4
+Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest
3857c4
+your rights to work written entirely by you; rather, the intent is to
3857c4
+exercise the right to control the distribution of derivative or
3857c4
+collective works based on the Library.
3857c4
+
3857c4
+In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the Library
3857c4
+with the Library (or with a work based on the Library) on a volume of
3857c4
+a storage or distribution medium does not bring the other work under
3857c4
+the scope of this License.
3857c4
+
3857c4
+  3. You may opt to apply the terms of the ordinary GNU General Public
3857c4
+License instead of this License to a given copy of the Library.  To do
3857c4
+this, you must alter all the notices that refer to this License, so
3857c4
+that they refer to the ordinary GNU General Public License, version 2,
3857c4
+instead of to this License.  (If a newer version than version 2 of the
3857c4
+ordinary GNU General Public License has appeared, then you can specify
3857c4
+that version instead if you wish.)  Do not make any other change in
3857c4
+these notices.
3857c4
+
3857c4
+  Once this change is made in a given copy, it is irreversible for
3857c4
+that copy, so the ordinary GNU General Public License applies to all
3857c4
+subsequent copies and derivative works made from that copy.
3857c4
+
3857c4
+  This option is useful when you wish to copy part of the code of
3857c4
+the Library into a program that is not a library.
3857c4
+
3857c4
+  4. You may copy and distribute the Library (or a portion or
3857c4
+derivative of it, under Section 2) in object code or executable form
3857c4
+under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above provided that you accompany
3857c4
+it with the complete corresponding machine-readable source code, which
3857c4
+must be distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a
3857c4
+medium customarily used for software interchange.
3857c4
+
3857c4
+  If distribution of object code is made by offering access to copy
3857c4
+from a designated place, then offering equivalent access to copy the
3857c4
+source code from the same place satisfies the requirement to
3857c4
+distribute the source code, even though third parties are not
3857c4
+compelled to copy the source along with the object code.
3857c4
+
3857c4
+  5. A program that contains no derivative of any portion of the
3857c4
+Library, but is designed to work with the Library by being compiled or
3857c4
+linked with it, is called a "work that uses the Library".  Such a
3857c4
+work, in isolation, is not a derivative work of the Library, and
3857c4
+therefore falls outside the scope of this License.
3857c4
+
3857c4
+  However, linking a "work that uses the Library" with the Library
3857c4
+creates an executable that is a derivative of the Library (because it
3857c4
+contains portions of the Library), rather than a "work that uses the
3857c4
+library".  The executable is therefore covered by this License.
3857c4
+Section 6 states terms for distribution of such executables.
3857c4
+
3857c4
+  When a "work that uses the Library" uses material from a header file
3857c4
+that is part of the Library, the object code for the work may be a
3857c4
+derivative work of the Library even though the source code is not.
3857c4
+Whether this is true is especially significant if the work can be
3857c4
+linked without the Library, or if the work is itself a library.  The
3857c4
+threshold for this to be true is not precisely defined by law.
3857c4
+
3857c4
+  If such an object file uses only numerical parameters, data
3857c4
+structure layouts and accessors, and small macros and small inline
3857c4
+functions (ten lines or less in length), then the use of the object
3857c4
+file is unrestricted, regardless of whether it is legally a derivative
3857c4
+work.  (Executables containing this object code plus portions of the
3857c4
+Library will still fall under Section 6.)
3857c4
+
3857c4
+  Otherwise, if the work is a derivative of the Library, you may
3857c4
+distribute the object code for the work under the terms of Section 6.
3857c4
+Any executables containing that work also fall under Section 6,
3857c4
+whether or not they are linked directly with the Library itself.
3857c4
+
3857c4
+  6. As an exception to the Sections above, you may also combine or
3857c4
+link a "work that uses the Library" with the Library to produce a
3857c4
+work containing portions of the Library, and distribute that work
3857c4
+under terms of your choice, provided that the terms permit
3857c4
+modification of the work for the customer's own use and reverse
3857c4
+engineering for debugging such modifications.
3857c4
+
3857c4
+  You must give prominent notice with each copy of the work that the
3857c4
+Library is used in it and that the Library and its use are covered by
3857c4
+this License.  You must supply a copy of this License.  If the work
3857c4
+during execution displays copyright notices, you must include the
3857c4
+copyright notice for the Library among them, as well as a reference
3857c4
+directing the user to the copy of this License.  Also, you must do one
3857c4
+of these things:
3857c4
+
3857c4
+    a) Accompany the work with the complete corresponding
3857c4
+    machine-readable source code for the Library including whatever
3857c4
+    changes were used in the work (which must be distributed under
3857c4
+    Sections 1 and 2 above); and, if the work is an executable linked
3857c4
+    with the Library, with the complete machine-readable "work that
3857c4
+    uses the Library", as object code and/or source code, so that the
3857c4
+    user can modify the Library and then relink to produce a modified
3857c4
+    executable containing the modified Library.  (It is understood
3857c4
+    that the user who changes the contents of definitions files in the
3857c4
+    Library will not necessarily be able to recompile the application
3857c4
+    to use the modified definitions.)
3857c4
+
3857c4
+    b) Use a suitable shared library mechanism for linking with the
3857c4
+    Library.  A suitable mechanism is one that (1) uses at run time a
3857c4
+    copy of the library already present on the user's computer system,
3857c4
+    rather than copying library functions into the executable, and (2)
3857c4
+    will operate properly with a modified version of the library, if
3857c4
+    the user installs one, as long as the modified version is
3857c4
+    interface-compatible with the version that the work was made with.
3857c4
+
3857c4
+    c) Accompany the work with a written offer, valid for at
3857c4
+    least three years, to give the same user the materials
3857c4
+    specified in Subsection 6a, above, for a charge no more
3857c4
+    than the cost of performing this distribution.
3857c4
+
3857c4
+    d) If distribution of the work is made by offering access to copy
3857c4
+    from a designated place, offer equivalent access to copy the above
3857c4
+    specified materials from the same place.
3857c4
+
3857c4
+    e) Verify that the user has already received a copy of these
3857c4
+    materials or that you have already sent this user a copy.
3857c4
+
3857c4
+  For an executable, the required form of the "work that uses the
3857c4
+Library" must include any data and utility programs needed for
3857c4
+reproducing the executable from it.  However, as a special exception,
3857c4
+the materials to be distributed need not include anything that is
3857c4
+normally distributed (in either source or binary form) with the major
3857c4
+components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of the operating system on
3857c4
+which the executable runs, unless that component itself accompanies
3857c4
+the executable.
3857c4
+
3857c4
+  It may happen that this requirement contradicts the license
3857c4
+restrictions of other proprietary libraries that do not normally
3857c4
+accompany the operating system.  Such a contradiction means you cannot
3857c4
+use both them and the Library together in an executable that you
3857c4
+distribute.
3857c4
+
3857c4
+  7. You may place library facilities that are a work based on the
3857c4
+Library side-by-side in a single library together with other library
3857c4
+facilities not covered by this License, and distribute such a combined
3857c4
+library, provided that the separate distribution of the work based on
3857c4
+the Library and of the other library facilities is otherwise
3857c4
+permitted, and provided that you do these two things:
3857c4
+
3857c4
+    a) Accompany the combined library with a copy of the same work
3857c4
+    based on the Library, uncombined with any other library
3857c4
+    facilities.  This must be distributed under the terms of the
3857c4
+    Sections above.
3857c4
+
3857c4
+    b) Give prominent notice with the combined library of the fact
3857c4
+    that part of it is a work based on the Library, and explaining
3857c4
+    where to find the accompanying uncombined form of the same work.
3857c4
+
3857c4
+  8. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, link with, or distribute
3857c4
+the Library except as expressly provided under this License.  Any
3857c4
+attempt otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense, link with, or
3857c4
+distribute the Library is void, and will automatically terminate your
3857c4
+rights under this License.  However, parties who have received copies,
3857c4
+or rights, from you under this License will not have their licenses
3857c4
+terminated so long as such parties remain in full compliance.
3857c4
+
3857c4
+  9. You are not required to accept this License, since you have not
3857c4
+signed it.  However, nothing else grants you permission to modify or
3857c4
+distribute the Library or its derivative works.  These actions are
3857c4
+prohibited by law if you do not accept this License.  Therefore, by
3857c4
+modifying or distributing the Library (or any work based on the
3857c4
+Library), you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so, and
3857c4
+all its terms and conditions for copying, distributing or modifying
3857c4
+the Library or works based on it.
3857c4
+
3857c4
+  10. Each time you redistribute the Library (or any work based on the
3857c4
+Library), the recipient automatically receives a license from the
3857c4
+original licensor to copy, distribute, link with or modify the Library
3857c4
+subject to these terms and conditions.  You may not impose any further
3857c4
+restrictions on the recipients' exercise of the rights granted herein.
3857c4
+You are not responsible for enforcing compliance by third parties with
3857c4
+this License.
3857c4
+
3857c4
+  11. If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent
3857c4
+infringement or for any other reason (not limited to patent issues),
3857c4
+conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or
3857c4
+otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not
3857c4
+excuse you from the conditions of this License.  If you cannot
3857c4
+distribute so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this
3857c4
+License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you
3857c4
+may not distribute the Library at all.  For example, if a patent
3857c4
+license would not permit royalty-free redistribution of the Library by
3857c4
+all those who receive copies directly or indirectly through you, then
3857c4
+the only way you could satisfy both it and this License would be to
3857c4
+refrain entirely from distribution of the Library.
3857c4
+
3857c4
+If any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable under any
3857c4
+particular circumstance, the balance of the section is intended to apply,
3857c4
+and the section as a whole is intended to apply in other circumstances.
3857c4
+
3857c4
+It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe any
3857c4
+patents or other property right claims or to contest validity of any
3857c4
+such claims; this section has the sole purpose of protecting the
3857c4
+integrity of the free software distribution system which is
3857c4
+implemented by public license practices.  Many people have made
3857c4
+generous contributions to the wide range of software distributed
3857c4
+through that system in reliance on consistent application of that
3857c4
+system; it is up to the author/donor to decide if he or she is willing
3857c4
+to distribute software through any other system and a licensee cannot
3857c4
+impose that choice.
3857c4
+
3857c4
+This section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is believed to
3857c4
+be a consequence of the rest of this License.
3857c4
+
3857c4
+  12. If the distribution and/or use of the Library is restricted in
3857c4
+certain countries either by patents or by copyrighted interfaces, the
3857c4
+original copyright holder who places the Library under this License may add
3857c4
+an explicit geographical distribution limitation excluding those countries,
3857c4
+so that distribution is permitted only in or among countries not thus
3857c4
+excluded.  In such case, this License incorporates the limitation as if
3857c4
+written in the body of this License.
3857c4
+
3857c4
+  13. The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new
3857c4
+versions of the Lesser General Public License from time to time.
3857c4
+Such new versions will be similar in spirit to the present version,
3857c4
+but may differ in detail to address new problems or concerns.
3857c4
+
3857c4
+Each version is given a distinguishing version number.  If the Library
3857c4
+specifies a version number of this License which applies to it and
3857c4
+"any later version", you have the option of following the terms and
3857c4
+conditions either of that version or of any later version published by
3857c4
+the Free Software Foundation.  If the Library does not specify a
3857c4
+license version number, you may choose any version ever published by
3857c4
+the Free Software Foundation.
3857c4
+
3857c4
+  14. If you wish to incorporate parts of the Library into other free
3857c4
+programs whose distribution conditions are incompatible with these,
3857c4
+write to the author to ask for permission.  For software which is
3857c4
+copyrighted by the Free Software Foundation, write to the Free
3857c4
+Software Foundation; we sometimes make exceptions for this.  Our
3857c4
+decision will be guided by the two goals of preserving the free status
3857c4
+of all derivatives of our free software and of promoting the sharing
3857c4
+and reuse of software generally.
3857c4
+
3857c4
+			    NO WARRANTY
3857c4
+
3857c4
+  15. BECAUSE THE LIBRARY IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE, THERE IS NO
3857c4
+WARRANTY FOR THE LIBRARY, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW.
3857c4
+EXCEPT WHEN OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS AND/OR
3857c4
+OTHER PARTIES PROVIDE THE LIBRARY "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY
3857c4
+KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE
3857c4
+IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR
3857c4
+PURPOSE.  THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE
3857c4
+LIBRARY IS WITH YOU.  SHOULD THE LIBRARY PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME
3857c4
+THE COST OF ALL NECESSARY SERVICING, REPAIR OR CORRECTION.
3857c4
+
3857c4
+  16. IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN
3857c4
+WRITING WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MAY MODIFY
3857c4
+AND/OR REDISTRIBUTE THE LIBRARY AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU
3857c4
+FOR DAMAGES, INCLUDING ANY GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR
3857c4
+CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE
3857c4
+LIBRARY (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF DATA OR DATA BEING
3857c4
+RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY YOU OR THIRD PARTIES OR A
3857c4
+FAILURE OF THE LIBRARY TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER SOFTWARE), EVEN IF
3857c4
+SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH
3857c4
+DAMAGES.
3857c4
+
3857c4
+		     END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS
3857c4
+
3857c4
+           How to Apply These Terms to Your New Libraries
3857c4
+
3857c4
+  If you develop a new library, and you want it to be of the greatest
3857c4
+possible use to the public, we recommend making it free software that
3857c4
+everyone can redistribute and change.  You can do so by permitting
3857c4
+redistribution under these terms (or, alternatively, under the terms of the
3857c4
+ordinary General Public License).
3857c4
+
3857c4
+  To apply these terms, attach the following notices to the library.  It is
3857c4
+safest to attach them to the start of each source file to most effectively
3857c4
+convey the exclusion of warranty; and each file should have at least the
3857c4
+"copyright" line and a pointer to where the full notice is found.
3857c4
+
3857c4
+    <one line to give the library's name and a brief idea of what it does.>

3857c4

3857c4

3857c4

3857c4
+school, if any, to sign a "copyright disclaimer" for the library, if
3857c4
+necessary.  Here is a sample; alter the names:
