| 3 | Version 3, 19 November 2007 |
| 4 | |
| 5 | Copyright (C) 2007 Free Software Foundation, Inc. <https://fsf.org/> |
| 6 | |
| 7 | Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies of this license |
| 8 | document, but changing it is not allowed. |
| 9 | |
| 10 | Preamble |
| 11 | |
| 12 | The GNU Affero General Public License is a free, copyleft license for software |
| 13 | and other kinds of works, specifically designed to ensure cooperation with |
| 14 | the community in the case of network server software. |
| 15 | |
| 16 | The licenses for most software and other practical works are designed to take |
| 17 | away your freedom to share and change the works. By contrast, our General |
| 18 | Public Licenses are intended to guarantee your freedom to share and change |
| 19 | all versions of a program--to make sure it remains free software for all its |
| 20 | users. |
| 21 | |
| 22 | When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not price. Our |
| 23 | General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that you have the freedom |
| 24 | to distribute copies of free software (and charge for them if you wish), that |
| 25 | you receive source code or can get it if you want it, that you can change |
| 26 | the software or use pieces of it in new free programs, and that you know you |
| 27 | can do these things. |
| 28 | |
| 29 | Developers that use our General Public Licenses protect your rights with two |
| 30 | steps: (1) assert copyright on the software, and (2) offer you this License |
| 31 | which gives you legal permission to copy, distribute and/or modify the software. |
| 32 | |
| 33 | A secondary benefit of defending all users' freedom is that improvements made |
| 34 | in alternate versions of the program, if they receive widespread use, become |
| 35 | available for other developers to incorporate. Many developers of free software |
| 36 | are heartened and encouraged by the resulting cooperation. However, in the |
| 37 | case of software used on network servers, this result may fail to come about. |
| 38 | The GNU General Public License permits making a modified version and letting |
| 39 | the public access it on a server without ever releasing its source code to |
| 40 | the public. |
| 41 | |
| 42 | The GNU Affero General Public License is designed specifically to ensure that, |
| 43 | in such cases, the modified source code becomes available to the community. |
| 44 | It requires the operator of a network server to provide the source code of |
| 45 | the modified version running there to the users of that server. Therefore, |
| 46 | public use of a modified version, on a publicly accessible server, gives the |
| 47 | public access to the source code of the modified version. |
| 48 | |
| 49 | An older license, called the Affero General Public License and published by |
| 50 | Affero, was designed to accomplish similar goals. This is a different license, |
| 51 | not a version of the Affero GPL, but Affero has released a new version of |
| 52 | the Affero GPL which permits relicensing under this license. |
| 53 | |
| 54 | The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and modification |
| 55 | follow. |
| 56 | |
| 57 | TERMS AND CONDITIONS |
| 58 | |
| 59 | 0. Definitions. |
| 60 | |
| 61 | "This License" refers to version 3 of the GNU Affero General Public License. |
| 62 | |
| 63 | "Copyright" also means copyright-like laws that apply to other kinds of works, |
| 64 | such as semiconductor masks. |
| 65 | |
| 66 | "The Program" refers to any copyrightable work licensed under this License. |
| 67 | Each licensee is addressed as "you". "Licensees" and "recipients" may be individuals |
| 68 | or organizations. |
| 69 | |
| 70 | To "modify" a work means to copy from or adapt all or part of the work in |
| 71 | a fashion requiring copyright permission, other than the making of an exact |
| 72 | copy. The resulting work is called a "modified version" of the earlier work |
| 73 | or a work "based on" the earlier work. |
| 74 | |
| 75 | A "covered work" means either the unmodified Program or a work based on the |
| 76 | Program. |
| 77 | |
| 78 | To "propagate" a work means to do anything with it that, without permission, |
| 79 | would make you directly or secondarily liable for infringement under applicable |
| 80 | copyright law, except executing it on a computer or modifying a private copy. |
| 81 | Propagation includes copying, distribution (with or without modification), |
| 82 | making available to the public, and in some countries other activities as |
| 83 | well. |
| 84 | |
| 85 | To "convey" a work means any kind of propagation that enables other parties |
| 86 | to make or receive copies. Mere interaction with a user through a computer |
| 87 | network, with no transfer of a copy, is not conveying. |
| 88 | |
| 89 | An interactive user interface displays "Appropriate Legal Notices" to the |
| 90 | extent that it includes a convenient and prominently visible feature that |
| 91 | (1) displays an appropriate copyright notice, and (2) tells the user that |
| 92 | there is no warranty for the work (except to the extent that warranties are |
| 93 | provided), that licensees may convey the work under this License, and how |
| 94 | to view a copy of this License. If the interface presents a list of user commands |
| 95 | or options, such as a menu, a prominent item in the list meets this criterion. |
| 96 | |
| 97 | 1. Source Code. |
| 98 | |
| 99 | The "source code" for a work means the preferred form of the work for making |
| 100 | modifications to it. "Object code" means any non-source form of a work. |
| 101 | |
| 102 | A "Standard Interface" means an interface that either is an official standard |
| 103 | defined by a recognized standards body, or, in the case of interfaces specified |
| 104 | for a particular programming language, one that is widely used among developers |
| 105 | working in that language. |
| 106 | |
| 107 | The "System Libraries" of an executable work include anything, other than |
| 108 | the work as a whole, that (a) is included in the normal form of packaging |
| 109 | a Major Component, but which is not part of that Major Component, and (b) |
| 110 | serves only to enable use of the work with that Major Component, or to implement |
| 111 | a Standard Interface for which an implementation is available to the public |
| 112 | in source code form. A "Major Component", in this context, means a major essential |
| 113 | component (kernel, window system, and so on) of the specific operating system |
| 114 | (if any) on which the executable work runs, or a compiler used to produce |
| 115 | the work, or an object code interpreter used to run it. |
| 116 | |
| 117 | The "Corresponding Source" for a work in object code form means all the source |
| 118 | code needed to generate, install, and (for an executable work) run the object |
| 119 | code and to modify the work, including scripts to control those activities. |
| 120 | However, it does not include the work's System Libraries, or general-purpose |
| 121 | tools or generally available free programs which are used unmodified in performing |
| 122 | those activities but which are not part of the work. For example, Corresponding |
| 123 | Source includes interface definition files associated with source files for |
| 124 | the work, and the source code for shared libraries and dynamically linked |
| 125 | subprograms that the work is specifically designed to require, such as by |
| 126 | intimate data communication or control flow between those |
| 127 | |
| 128 | subprograms and other parts of the work. |
| 129 | |
| 130 | The Corresponding Source need not include anything that users can regenerate |
| 131 | automatically from other parts of the Corresponding Source. |
| 132 | |
| 133 | The Corresponding Source for a work in source code form is that same work. |
| 134 | |
| 135 | 2. Basic Permissions. |
| 136 | |
| 137 | All rights granted under this License are granted for the term of copyright |
| 138 | on the Program, and are irrevocable provided the stated conditions are met. |
| 139 | This License explicitly affirms your unlimited permission to run the unmodified |
| 140 | Program. The output from running a covered work is covered by this License |
| 141 | only if the output, given its content, constitutes a covered work. This License |
| 142 | acknowledges your rights of fair use or other equivalent, as provided by copyright |
| 143 | law. |
| 144 | |
| 145 | You may make, run and propagate covered works that you do not convey, without |
| 146 | conditions so long as your license otherwise remains in force. You may convey |
| 147 | covered works to others for the sole purpose of having them make modifications |
| 148 | exclusively for you, or provide you with facilities for running those works, |
| 149 | provided that you comply with the terms of this License in conveying all material |
| 150 | for which you do not control copyright. Those thus making or running the covered |
| 151 | works for you must do so exclusively on your behalf, under your direction |
| 152 | and control, on terms that prohibit them from making any copies of your copyrighted |
| 153 | material outside their relationship with you. |
| 154 | |
| 155 | Conveying under any other circumstances is permitted solely under the conditions |
| 156 | stated below. Sublicensing is not allowed; section 10 makes it unnecessary. |
| 157 | |
| 158 | 3. Protecting Users' Legal Rights From Anti-Circumvention Law. |
| 159 | |
| 160 | No covered work shall be deemed part of an effective technological measure |
| 161 | under any applicable law fulfilling obligations under article 11 of the WIPO |
| 162 | copyright treaty adopted on 20 December 1996, or similar laws prohibiting |
| 163 | or restricting circumvention of such measures. |
| 164 | |
| 165 | When you convey a covered work, you waive any legal power to forbid circumvention |
| 166 | of technological measures to the extent such circumvention is effected by |
| 167 | exercising rights under this License with respect to the covered work, and |
| 168 | you disclaim any intention to limit operation or modification of the work |
| 169 | as a means of enforcing, against the work's users, your or third parties' |
| 170 | legal rights to forbid circumvention of technological measures. |
| 171 | |
| 172 | 4. Conveying Verbatim Copies. |
| 173 | |
| 174 | You may convey verbatim copies of the Program's source code as you receive |
| 175 | it, in any medium, provided that you conspicuously and appropriately publish |
| 176 | on each copy an appropriate copyright notice; keep intact all notices stating |
| 177 | that this License and any non-permissive terms added in accord with section |
| 178 | 7 apply to the code; keep intact all notices of the absence of any warranty; |
| 179 | and give all recipients a copy of this License along with the Program. |
| 180 | |
| 181 | You may charge any price or no price for each copy that you convey, and you |
| 182 | may offer support or warranty protection for a fee. |
| 183 | |
| 184 | 5. Conveying Modified Source Versions. |
| 185 | |
| 186 | You may convey a work based on the Program, or the modifications to produce |
| 187 | it from the Program, in the form of source code under the terms of section |
| 188 | 4, provided that you also meet all of these conditions: |
| 189 | |
| 190 | a) The work must carry prominent notices stating that you modified it, and |
| 191 | giving a relevant date. |
| 192 | |
| 193 | b) The work must carry prominent notices stating that it is released under |
| 194 | this License and any conditions added under section 7. This requirement modifies |
| 195 | the requirement in section 4 to "keep intact all notices". |
| 196 | |
| 197 | c) You must license the entire work, as a whole, under this License to anyone |
| 198 | who comes into possession of a copy. This License will therefore apply, along |
| 199 | with any applicable section 7 additional terms, to the whole of the work, |
| 200 | and all its parts, regardless of how they are packaged. This License gives |
| 201 | no permission to license the work in any other way, but it does not invalidate |
| 202 | such permission if you have separately received it. |
| 203 | |
| 204 | d) If the work has interactive user interfaces, each must display Appropriate |
| 205 | Legal Notices; however, if the Program has interactive interfaces that do |
| 206 | not display Appropriate Legal Notices, your work need not make them do so. |
| 207 | |
| 208 | A compilation of a covered work with other separate and independent works, |
| 209 | which are not by their nature extensions of the covered work, and which are |
| 210 | not combined with it such as to form a larger program, in or on a volume of |
| 211 | a storage or distribution medium, is called an "aggregate" if the compilation |
| 212 | and its resulting copyright are not used to limit the access or legal rights |
| 213 | of the compilation's users beyond what the individual works permit. Inclusion |
| 214 | of a covered work in an aggregate does not cause this License to apply to |
| 215 | the other parts of the aggregate. |
| 216 | |
| 217 | 6. Conveying Non-Source Forms. |
| 218 | |
| 219 | You may convey a covered work in object code form under the terms of sections |
| 220 | 4 and 5, provided that you also convey the machine-readable Corresponding |
| 221 | Source under the terms of this License, in one of these ways: |
| 222 | |
| 223 | a) Convey the object code in, or embodied in, a physical product (including |
| 224 | a physical distribution medium), accompanied by the Corresponding Source fixed |
| 225 | on a durable physical medium customarily used for software interchange. |
| 226 | |
| 227 | b) Convey the object code in, or embodied in, a physical product (including |
| 228 | a physical distribution medium), accompanied by a written offer, valid for |
| 229 | at least three years and valid for as long as you offer spare parts or customer |
| 230 | support for that product model, to give anyone who possesses the object code |
| 231 | either (1) a copy of the Corresponding Source for all the software in the |
| 232 | product that is covered by this License, on a durable physical medium customarily |
| 233 | used for software interchange, for a price no more than your reasonable cost |
| 234 | of physically performing this conveying of source, or (2) access to copy the |
| 235 | Corresponding Source from a network server at no charge. |
| 236 | |
| 237 | c) Convey individual copies of the object code with a copy of the written |
| 238 | offer to provide the Corresponding Source. This alternative is allowed only |
| 239 | occasionally and noncommercially, and only if you received the object code |
| 240 | with such an offer, in accord with subsection 6b. |
| 241 | |
| 242 | d) Convey the object code by offering access from a designated place (gratis |
| 243 | or for a charge), and offer equivalent access to the Corresponding Source |
| 244 | in the same way through the same place at no further charge. You need not |
| 245 | require recipients to copy the Corresponding Source along with the object |
| 246 | code. If the place to copy the object code is a network server, the Corresponding |
| 247 | Source may be on a different server (operated by you or a third party) that |
| 248 | supports equivalent copying facilities, provided you maintain clear directions |
| 249 | next to the object code saying where to find the Corresponding Source. Regardless |
| 250 | of what server hosts the Corresponding Source, you remain obligated to ensure |
| 251 | that it is available for as long as needed to satisfy these requirements. |
| 252 | |
| 253 | e) Convey the object code using peer-to-peer transmission, provided you inform |
| 254 | other peers where the object code and Corresponding Source of the work are |
| 255 | being offered to the general public at no charge under subsection 6d. |
| 256 | |
| 257 | A separable portion of the object code, whose source code is excluded from |
| 258 | the Corresponding Source as a System Library, need not be included in conveying |
| 259 | the object code work. |
| 260 | |
| 261 | A "User Product" is either (1) a "consumer product", which means any tangible |
| 262 | personal property which is normally used for personal, family, or household |
| 263 | purposes, or (2) anything designed or sold for incorporation into a dwelling. |
| 264 | In determining whether a product is a consumer product, doubtful cases shall |
| 265 | be resolved in favor of coverage. For a particular product received by a particular |
| 266 | user, "normally used" refers to a typical or common use of that class of product, |
| 267 | regardless of the status of the particular user or of the way in which the |
| 268 | particular user actually uses, or expects or is expected to use, the product. |
| 269 | A product is a consumer product regardless of whether the product has substantial |
| 270 | commercial, industrial or non-consumer uses, unless such uses represent the |
| 271 | only significant mode of use of the product. |
| 272 | |
| 273 | "Installation Information" for a User Product means any methods, procedures, |
| 274 | authorization keys, or other information required to install and execute modified |
| 275 | versions of a covered work in that User Product from a modified version of |
| 276 | its Corresponding Source. The information must suffice to ensure that the |
| 277 | continued functioning of the modified object code is in no case prevented |
| 278 | or interfered with solely because modification has been made. |
| 279 | |
| 280 | If you convey an object code work under this section in, or with, or specifically |
| 281 | for use in, a User Product, and the conveying occurs as part of a transaction |
| 282 | in which the right of possession and use of the User Product is transferred |
| 283 | to the recipient in perpetuity or for a fixed term (regardless of how the |
| 284 | transaction is characterized), the Corresponding Source conveyed under this |
| 285 | section must be accompanied by the Installation Information. But this requirement |
| 286 | does not apply if neither you nor any third party retains the ability to install |
| 287 | modified object code on the User Product (for example, the work has been installed |
| 288 | in ROM). |
| 289 | |
| 290 | The requirement to provide Installation Information does not include a requirement |
| 291 | to continue to provide support service, warranty, or updates for a work that |
| 292 | has been modified or installed by the recipient, or for the User Product in |
| 293 | which it has been modified or installed. Access to a network may be denied |
| 294 | when the modification itself materially and adversely affects the operation |
| 295 | of the network or violates the rules and protocols for communication across |
| 296 | the network. |
| 297 | |
| 298 | Corresponding Source conveyed, and Installation Information provided, in accord |
| 299 | with this section must be in a format that is publicly documented (and with |
| 300 | an implementation available to the public in source code form), and must require |
| 301 | no special password or key for unpacking, reading or copying. |
| 302 | |
| 303 | 7. Additional Terms. |
| 304 | |
| 305 | "Additional permissions" are terms that supplement the terms of this License |
| 306 | by making exceptions from one or more of its conditions. Additional permissions |
| 307 | that are applicable to the entire Program shall be treated as though they |
| 308 | were included in this License, to the extent that they are valid under applicable |
| 309 | law. If additional permissions apply only to part of the Program, that part |
| 310 | may be used separately under those permissions, but the entire Program remains |
| 311 | governed by this License without regard to the additional permissions. |
| 312 | |
| 313 | When you convey a copy of a covered work, you may at your option remove any |
| 314 | additional permissions from that copy, or from any part of it. (Additional |
| 315 | permissions may be written to require their own removal in certain cases when |
| 316 | you modify the work.) You may place additional permissions on material, added |
| 317 | by you to a covered work, for which you have or can give appropriate copyright |
| 318 | permission. |
| 319 | |
| 320 | Notwithstanding any other provision of this License, for material you add |
| 321 | to a covered work, you may (if authorized by the copyright holders of that |
| 322 | material) supplement the terms of this License with terms: |
| 323 | |
| 324 | a) Disclaiming warranty or limiting liability differently from the terms of |
| 325 | sections 15 and 16 of this License; or |
| 326 | |
| 327 | b) Requiring preservation of specified reasonable legal notices or author |
| 328 | attributions in that material or in the Appropriate Legal Notices displayed |
| 329 | by works containing it; or |
| 330 | |
| 331 | c) Prohibiting misrepresentation of the origin of that material, or requiring |
| 332 | that modified versions of such material be marked in reasonable ways as different |
| 333 | from the original version; or |
| 334 | |
| 335 | d) Limiting the use for publicity purposes of names of licensors or authors |
| 336 | of the material; or |
| 337 | |
| 338 | e) Declining to grant rights under trademark law for use of some trade names, |
| 339 | trademarks, or service marks; or |
| 340 | |
| 341 | f) Requiring indemnification of licensors and authors of that material by |
| 342 | anyone who conveys the material (or modified versions of it) with contractual |
| 343 | assumptions of liability to the recipient, for any liability that these contractual |
| 344 | assumptions directly impose on those licensors and authors. |
| 345 | |
| 346 | All other non-permissive additional terms are considered "further restrictions" |
| 347 | within the meaning of section 10. If the Program as you received it, or any |
| 348 | part of it, contains a notice stating that it is governed by this License |
| 349 | along with a term that is a further restriction, you may remove that term. |
| 350 | If a license document contains a further restriction but permits relicensing |
| 351 | or conveying under this License, you may add to a covered work material governed |
| 352 | by the terms of that license document, provided that the further restriction |
| 353 | does not survive such relicensing or conveying. |
| 354 | |
| 355 | If you add terms to a covered work in accord with this section, you must place, |
| 356 | in the relevant source files, a statement of the additional terms that apply |
| 357 | to those files, or a notice indicating where to find the applicable terms. |
| 358 | |
| 359 | Additional terms, permissive or non-permissive, may be stated in the form |
| 360 | of a separately written license, or stated as exceptions; the above requirements |
| 361 | apply either way. |
| 362 | |
| 363 | 8. Termination. |
| 364 | |
| 365 | You may not propagate or modify a covered work except as expressly provided |
| 366 | under this License. Any attempt otherwise to propagate or modify it is void, |
| 367 | and will automatically terminate your rights under this License (including |
| 368 | any patent licenses granted under the third paragraph of section 11). |
| 369 | |
| 370 | However, if you cease all violation of this License, then your license from |
| 371 | a particular copyright holder is reinstated (a) provisionally, unless and |
| 372 | until the copyright holder explicitly and finally terminates your license, |
| 373 | and (b) permanently, if the copyright holder fails to notify you of the violation |
| 374 | by some reasonable means prior to 60 days after the cessation. |
| 375 | |
| 376 | Moreover, your license from a particular copyright holder is reinstated permanently |
| 377 | if the copyright holder notifies you of the violation by some reasonable means, |
| 378 | this is the first time you have received notice of violation of this License |
| 379 | (for any work) from that copyright holder, and you cure the violation prior |
| 380 | to 30 days after your receipt of the notice. |
| 381 | |
| 382 | Termination of your rights under this section does not terminate the licenses |
| 383 | of parties who have received copies or rights from you under this License. |
| 384 | If your rights have been terminated and not permanently reinstated, you do |
| 385 | not qualify to receive new licenses for the same material under section 10. |
| 386 | |
| 387 | 9. Acceptance Not Required for Having Copies. |
| 388 | |
| 389 | You are not required to accept this License in order to receive or run a copy |
| 390 | of the Program. Ancillary propagation of a covered work occurring solely as |
| 391 | a consequence of using peer-to-peer transmission to receive a copy likewise |
| 392 | does not require acceptance. However, nothing other than this License grants |
| 393 | you permission to propagate or modify any covered work. These actions infringe |
| 394 | copyright if you do not accept this License. Therefore, by modifying or propagating |
| 395 | a covered work, you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so. |
| 396 | |
| 397 | 10. Automatic Licensing of Downstream Recipients. |
| 398 | |
| 399 | Each time you convey a covered work, the recipient automatically receives |
| 400 | a license from the original licensors, to run, modify and propagate that work, |
| 401 | subject to this License. You are not responsible for enforcing compliance |
| 402 | by third parties with this License. |
| 403 | |
| 404 | An "entity transaction" is a transaction transferring control of an organization, |
| 405 | or substantially all assets of one, or subdividing an organization, or merging |
| 406 | organizations. If propagation of a covered work results from an entity transaction, |
| 407 | each party to that transaction who receives a copy of the work also receives |
| 408 | whatever licenses to the work the party's predecessor in interest had or could |
| 409 | give under the previous paragraph, plus a right to possession of the Corresponding |
| 410 | Source of the work from the predecessor in interest, if the predecessor has |
| 411 | it or can get it with reasonable efforts. |
| 412 | |
| 413 | You may not impose any further restrictions on the exercise of the rights |
| 414 | granted or affirmed under this License. For example, you may not impose a |
| 415 | license fee, royalty, or other charge for exercise of rights granted under |
| 416 | this License, and you may not initiate litigation (including a cross-claim |
| 417 | or counterclaim in a lawsuit) alleging that any patent claim is infringed |
| 418 | by making, using, selling, offering for sale, or importing the Program or |
| 419 | any portion of it. |
| 420 | |
| 421 | 11. Patents. |

| 423 | A "contributor" is a copyright holder who authorizes use under this License |
| 424 | of the Program or a work on which the Program is based. The work thus licensed |
| 425 | is called the contributor's "contributor version". |
| 426 | |
| 427 | A contributor's "essential patent claims" are all patent claims owned or controlled |
| 428 | by the contributor, whether already acquired or hereafter acquired, that would |
| 429 | be infringed by some manner, permitted by this License, of making, using, |
| 430 | or selling its contributor version, but do not include claims that would be |
| 431 | infringed only as a consequence of further modification of the contributor |
| 432 | version. For purposes of this definition, "control" includes the right to |
| 433 | grant patent sublicenses in a manner consistent with the requirements of this |
| 434 | License. |
| 435 | |
| 436 | Each contributor grants you a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free patent |
| 437 | license under the contributor's essential patent claims, to make, use, sell, |
| 438 | offer for sale, import and otherwise run, modify and propagate the contents |
| 439 | of its contributor version. |
| 440 | |
| 441 | In the following three paragraphs, a "patent license" is any express agreement |
| 442 | or commitment, however denominated, not to enforce a patent (such as an express |
| 443 | permission to practice a patent or covenant not to sue for patent infringement). |
| 444 | To "grant" such a patent license to a party means to make such an agreement |
| 445 | or commitment not to enforce a patent against the party. |
| 446 | |
| 447 | If you convey a covered work, knowingly relying on a patent license, and the |
| 448 | Corresponding Source of the work is not available for anyone to copy, free |
| 449 | of charge and under the terms of this License, through a publicly available |
| 450 | network server or other readily accessible means, then you must either (1) |
| 451 | cause the Corresponding Source to be so available, or (2) arrange to deprive |
| 452 | yourself of the benefit of the patent license for this particular work, or |
| 453 | (3) arrange, in a manner consistent with the requirements of this License, |
| 454 | to extend the patent |
| 455 | |
| 456 | license to downstream recipients. "Knowingly relying" means you have actual |
| 457 | knowledge that, but for the patent license, your conveying the covered work |
| 458 | in a country, or your recipient's use of the covered work in a country, would |
| 459 | infringe one or more identifiable patents in that country that you have reason |
| 460 | to believe are valid. |
| 461 | |
| 462 | If, pursuant to or in connection with a single transaction or arrangement, |
| 463 | you convey, or propagate by procuring conveyance of, a covered work, and grant |
| 464 | a patent license to some of the parties receiving the covered work authorizing |
| 465 | them to use, propagate, modify or convey a specific copy of the covered work, |
| 466 | then the patent license you grant is automatically extended to all recipients |
| 467 | of the covered work and works based on it. |
| 468 | |
| 469 | A patent license is "discriminatory" if it does not include within the scope |
| 470 | of its coverage, prohibits the exercise of, or is conditioned on the non-exercise |
| 471 | of one or more of the rights that are specifically granted under this License. |
| 472 | You may not convey a covered work if you are a party to an arrangement with |
| 473 | a third party that is in the business of distributing software, under which |
| 474 | you make payment to the third party based on the extent of your activity of |
| 475 | conveying the work, and under which the third party grants, to any of the |
| 476 | parties who would receive the covered work from you, a discriminatory patent |
| 477 | license (a) in connection with copies of the covered work conveyed by you |
| 478 | (or copies made from those copies), or (b) primarily for and in connection |
| 479 | with specific products or compilations that contain the covered work, unless |
| 480 | you entered into that arrangement, or that patent license was granted, prior |
| 481 | to 28 March 2007. |
| 482 | |
| 483 | Nothing in this License shall be construed as excluding or limiting any implied |
| 484 | license or other defenses to infringement that may otherwise be available |
| 485 | to you under applicable patent law. |
| 486 | |
| 487 | 12. No Surrender of Others' Freedom. |
| 488 | |
| 489 | If conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or otherwise) |
| 490 | that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not excuse you from |
| 491 | the conditions of this License. If you cannot convey a covered work so as |
| 492 | to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this License and any other |
| 493 | pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you may |
| 494 | |
| 495 | not convey it at all. For example, if you agree to terms that obligate you |
| 496 | to collect a royalty for further conveying from those to whom you convey the |
| 497 | Program, the only way you could satisfy both those terms and this License |
| 498 | would be to refrain entirely from conveying the Program. |
| 499 | |
| 500 | 13. Remote Network Interaction; Use with the GNU General Public License. |
| 501 | |
| 502 | Notwithstanding any other provision of this License, if you modify the Program, |
| 503 | your modified version must prominently offer all users interacting with it |
| 504 | remotely through a computer network (if your version supports such interaction) |
| 505 | an opportunity to receive the Corresponding Source of your version by providing |
| 506 | access to the Corresponding Source from a network server at no charge, through |
| 507 | some standard or customary means of facilitating copying of software. This |
| 508 | Corresponding Source shall include the Corresponding Source for any work covered |
| 509 | by version 3 of the GNU General Public License that is incorporated pursuant |
| 510 | to the following paragraph. |
| 511 | |
| 512 | Notwithstanding any other provision of this License, you have permission to |
| 513 | link or combine any covered work with a work licensed under version 3 of the |
| 514 | GNU General Public License into a single combined work, and to convey the |
| 515 | resulting work. The terms of this License will continue to apply to the part |
| 516 | which is the covered work, but the work with which it is combined will remain |
| 517 | governed by version 3 of the GNU General Public License. |
| 518 | |
| 519 | 14. Revised Versions of this License. |
| 520 | |
| 521 | The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions of the |
| 522 | GNU Affero General Public License from time to time. Such new versions will |
| 523 | be similar in spirit to the present version, but may differ in detail to address |
| 524 | new problems or concerns. |
| 525 | |
| 526 | Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the Program specifies |
| 527 | that a certain numbered version of the GNU Affero General Public License "or |
| 528 | any later version" applies to it, you have the option of following the terms |
| 529 | and conditions either of that numbered version or of any later version published |
| 530 | by the Free Software Foundation. If the Program does not specify a version |
| 531 | number of the GNU Affero General Public License, you may choose any version |
| 532 | ever published by the Free Software Foundation. |
| 533 | |
| 534 | If the Program specifies that a proxy can decide which future versions of |
| 535 | the GNU Affero General Public License can be used, that proxy's public statement |
| 536 | of acceptance of a version permanently authorizes you to choose that version |
| 537 | for the Program. |
| 538 | |
| 539 | Later license versions may give you additional or different permissions. However, |
| 540 | no additional obligations are imposed on any author or copyright holder as |
| 541 | a result of your choosing to follow a later version. |
| 542 | |
| 543 | 15. Disclaimer of Warranty. |
| 544 | |
| 545 | THERE IS NO WARRANTY FOR THE PROGRAM, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE |
| 546 | LAW. EXCEPT WHEN OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS AND/OR |
| 547 | OTHER PARTIES PROVIDE THE PROGRAM "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EITHER |
| 548 | EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES |
| 549 | OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. THE ENTIRE RISK AS |
| 550 | TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE PROGRAM IS WITH YOU. SHOULD THE PROGRAM |
| 551 | PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE COST OF ALL NECESSARY SERVICING, REPAIR OR |
| 552 | CORRECTION. |
| 553 | |
| 554 | 16. Limitation of Liability. |
| 555 | |
| 556 | IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN WRITING WILL |
| 557 | ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MODIFIES AND/OR CONVEYS THE PROGRAM |
| 558 | AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES, INCLUDING ANY GENERAL, SPECIAL, |
| 559 | INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THE USE OR INABILITY TO |
| 560 | USE THE PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED |
| 561 | INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY YOU OR THIRD PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF THE |
| 562 | PROGRAM TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER PROGRAMS), EVEN IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER |
| 563 | PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. |
| 564 | |
| 565 | 17. Interpretation of Sections 15 and 16. |
| 566 | |
| 567 | If the disclaimer of warranty and limitation of liability provided above cannot |
| 568 | be given local legal effect according to their terms, reviewing courts shall |
| 569 | apply local law that most closely approximates an absolute waiver of all civil |
| 570 | liability in connection with the Program, unless a warranty or assumption |
| 571 | of liability accompanies a copy of the Program in return for a fee. END OF |
| 572 | TERMS AND CONDITIONS |
| 573 | |
| 574 | How to Apply These Terms to Your New Programs |
| 575 | |
| 576 | If you develop a new program, and you want it to be of the greatest possible |
| 577 | use to the public, the best way to achieve this is to make it free software |
| 578 | which everyone can redistribute and change under these terms. |
| 579 | |
| 580 | To do so, attach the following notices to the program. It is safest to attach |
| 581 | them to the start of each source file to most effectively state the exclusion |
| 582 | of warranty; and each file should have at least the "copyright" line and a |
| 583 | pointer to where the full notice is found. |
| 584 | |
| 585 | <one line to give the program's name and a brief idea of what it does.> |
| 586 | |
| 587 | Copyright (C) <year> <name of author> |
| 588 | |
| 589 | This program is free software: you can redistribute it and/or modify it under |
| 590 | the terms of the GNU Affero General Public License as published by the Free |
| 591 | Software Foundation, either version 3 of the License, or (at your option) |
| 592 | any later version. |
| 593 | |
| 594 | This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful, but WITHOUT |
| 595 | ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS |
| 596 | FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. See the GNU Affero General Public License for more |
| 597 | details. |
| 598 | |
| 599 | You should have received a copy of the GNU Affero General Public License along |
| 600 | with this program. If not, see <https://www.gnu.org/licenses/>. |
| 601 | |
| 602 | Also add information on how to contact you by electronic and paper mail. |
| 603 | |
| 604 | If your software can interact with users remotely through a computer network, |
| 605 | you should also make sure that it provides a way for users to get its source. |
| 606 | For example, if your program is a web application, its interface could display |
| 607 | a "Source" link that leads users to an archive of the code. There are many |
| 608 | ways you could offer source, and different solutions will be better for different |
| 609 | programs; see section 13 for the specific requirements. |
| 610 | |
| 611 | You should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer) or school, |
| 612 | if any, to sign a "copyright disclaimer" for the program, if necessary. For |
| 613 | more information on this, and how to apply and follow the GNU AGPL, see <https://www.gnu.org/licenses/>. |
