                    GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE\line
                       Version 3, 29 June 2007\line
\line
 Copyright (C) 2007 Free Software Foundation, Inc. <https://fsf.org/>\line
 Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies\line
 of this license document, but changing it is not allowed.\line
\line
                            Preamble\line
\line
  The GNU General Public License is a free, copyleft license for\line
software and other kinds of works.\line
\line
  The licenses for most software and other practical works are designed\line
to take away your freedom to share and change the works.  By contrast,\line
the GNU General Public License is intended to guarantee your freedom to\line
share and change all versions of a program--to make sure it remains free\line
software for all its users.  We, the Free Software Foundation, use the\line
GNU General Public License for most of our software; it applies also to\line
any other work released this way by its authors.  You can apply it to\line
your programs, too.\line
\line
  When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not\line
price.  Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that you\line
have the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge for\line
them if you wish), that you receive source code or can get it if you\line
want it, that you can change the software or use pieces of it in new\line
free programs, and that you know you can do these things.\line
\line
  To protect your rights, we need to prevent others from denying you\line
these rights or asking you to surrender the rights.  Therefore, you have\line
certain responsibilities if you distribute copies of the software, or if\line
you modify it: responsibilities to respect the freedom of others.\line
\line
  For example, if you distribute copies of such a program, whether\line
gratis or for a fee, you must pass on to the recipients the same\line
freedoms that you received.  You must make sure that they, too, receive\line
or can get the source code.  And you must show them these terms so they\line
know their rights.\line
\line
  Developers that use the GNU GPL protect your rights with two steps:\line
(1) assert copyright on the software, and (2) offer you this License\line
giving you legal permission to copy, distribute and/or modify it.\line
\line
  For the developers' and authors' protection, the GPL clearly explains\line
that there is no warranty for this free software.  For both users' and\line
authors' sake, the GPL requires that modified versions be marked as\line
changed, so that their problems will not be attributed erroneously to\line
authors of previous versions.\line
\line
  Some devices are designed to deny users access to install or run\line
modified versions of the software inside them, although the manufacturer\line
can do so.  This is fundamentally incompatible with the aim of\line
protecting users' freedom to change the software.  The systematic\line
pattern of such abuse occurs in the area of products for individuals to\line
use, which is precisely where it is most unacceptable.  Therefore, we\line
have designed this version of the GPL to prohibit the practice for those\line
products.  If such problems arise substantially in other domains, we\line
stand ready to extend this provision to those domains in future versions\line
of the GPL, as needed to protect the freedom of users.\line
\line
  Finally, every program is threatened constantly by software patents.\line
States should not allow patents to restrict development and use of\line
software on general-purpose computers, but in those that do, we wish to\line
avoid the special danger that patents applied to a free program could\line
make it effectively proprietary.  To prevent this, the GPL assures that\line
patents cannot be used to render the program non-free.\line
\line
  The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and\line
modification follow.\line
\line
                       TERMS AND CONDITIONS\line
\line
  0. Definitions.\line
\line
  "This License" refers to version 3 of the GNU General Public License.\line
\line
  "Copyright" also means copyright-like laws that apply to other kinds of\line
works, such as semiconductor masks.\line
\line
  "The Program" refers to any copyrightable work licensed under this\line
License.  Each licensee is addressed as "you".  "Licensees" and\line
"recipients" may be individuals or organizations.\line
\line
  To "modify" a work means to copy from or adapt all or part of the work\line
in a fashion requiring copyright permission, other than the making of an\line
exact copy.  The resulting work is called a "modified version" of the\line
earlier work or a work "based on" the earlier work.\line
\line
  A "covered work" means either the unmodified Program or a work based\line
on the Program.\line
\line
  To "propagate" a work means to do anything with it that, without\line
permission, would make you directly or secondarily liable for\line
infringement under applicable copyright law, except executing it on a\line
computer or modifying a private copy.  Propagation includes copying,\line
distribution (with or without modification), making available to the\line
public, and in some countries other activities as well.\line
\line
  To "convey" a work means any kind of propagation that enables other\line
parties to make or receive copies.  Mere interaction with a user through\line
a computer network, with no transfer of a copy, is not conveying.\line
\line
  An interactive user interface displays "Appropriate Legal Notices"\line
to the extent that it includes a convenient and prominently visible\line
feature that (1) displays an appropriate copyright notice, and (2)\line
tells the user that there is no warranty for the work (except to the\line
extent that warranties are provided), that licensees may convey the\line
work under this License, and how to view a copy of this License.  If\line
the interface presents a list of user commands or options, such as a\line
menu, a prominent item in the list meets this criterion.\line
\line
  1. Source Code.\line
\line
  The "source code" for a work means the preferred form of the work\line
for making modifications to it.  "Object code" means any non-source\line
form of a work.\line
\line
  A "Standard Interface" means an interface that either is an official\line
standard defined by a recognized standards body, or, in the case of\line
interfaces specified for a particular programming language, one that\line
is widely used among developers working in that language.\line
\line
  The "System Libraries" of an executable work include anything, other\line
than the work as a whole, that (a) is included in the normal form of\line
packaging a Major Component, but which is not part of that Major\line
Component, and (b) serves only to enable use of the work with that\line
Major Component, or to implement a Standard Interface for which an\line
implementation is available to the public in source code form.  A\line
"Major Component", in this context, means a major essential component\line
(kernel, window system, and so on) of the specific operating system\line
(if any) on which the executable work runs, or a compiler used to\line
produce the work, or an object code interpreter used to run it.\line
\line
  The "Corresponding Source" for a work in object code form means all\line
the source code needed to generate, install, and (for an executable\line
work) run the object code and to modify the work, including scripts to\line
control those activities.  However, it does not include the work's\line
System Libraries, or general-purpose tools or generally available free\line
programs which are used unmodified in performing those activities but\line
which are not part of the work.  For example, Corresponding Source\line
includes interface definition files associated with source files for\line
the work, and the source code for shared libraries and dynamically\line
linked subprograms that the work is specifically designed to require,\line
such as by intimate data communication or control flow between those\line
subprograms and other parts of the work.\line
\line
  The Corresponding Source need not include anything that users\line
can regenerate automatically from other parts of the Corresponding\line
Source.\line
\line
  The Corresponding Source for a work in source code form is that\line
same work.\line
\line
  2. Basic Permissions.\line
\line
  All rights granted under this License are granted for the term of\line
copyright on the Program, and are irrevocable provided the stated\line
conditions are met.  This License explicitly affirms your unlimited\line
permission to run the unmodified Program.  The output from running a\line
covered work is covered by this License only if the output, given its\line
content, constitutes a covered work.  This License acknowledges your\line
rights of fair use or other equivalent, as provided by copyright law.\line
\line
  You may make, run and propagate covered works that you do not\line
convey, without conditions so long as your license otherwise remains\line
in force.  You may convey covered works to others for the sole purpose\line
of having them make modifications exclusively for you, or provide you\line
with facilities for running those works, provided that you comply with\line
the terms of this License in conveying all material for which you do\line
not control copyright.  Those thus making or running the covered works\line
for you must do so exclusively on your behalf, under your direction\line
and control, on terms that prohibit them from making any copies of\line
your copyrighted material outside their relationship with you.\line
\line
  Conveying under any other circumstances is permitted solely under\line
the conditions stated below.  Sublicensing is not allowed; section 10\line
makes it unnecessary.\line
\line
  3. Protecting Users' Legal Rights From Anti-Circumvention Law.\line
\line
  No covered work shall be deemed part of an effective technological\line
measure under any applicable law fulfilling obligations under article\line
11 of the WIPO copyright treaty adopted on 20 December 1996, or\line
similar laws prohibiting or restricting circumvention of such\line
measures.\line
\line
  When you convey a covered work, you waive any legal power to forbid\line
circumvention of technological measures to the extent such circumvention\line
is effected by exercising rights under this License with respect to\line
the covered work, and you disclaim any intention to limit operation or\line
modification of the work as a means of enforcing, against the work's\line
users, your or third parties' legal rights to forbid circumvention of\line
technological measures.\line
\line
  4. Conveying Verbatim Copies.\line
\line
  You may convey verbatim copies of the Program's source code as you\line
receive it, in any medium, provided that you conspicuously and\line
appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate copyright notice;\line
keep intact all notices stating that this License and any\line
non-permissive terms added in accord with section 7 apply to the code;\line
keep intact all notices of the absence of any warranty; and give all\line
recipients a copy of this License along with the Program.\line
\line
  You may charge any price or no price for each copy that you convey,\line
and you may offer support or warranty protection for a fee.\line
\line
  5. Conveying Modified Source Versions.\line
\line
  You may convey a work based on the Program, or the modifications to\line
produce it from the Program, in the form of source code under the\line
terms of section 4, provided that you also meet all of these conditions:\line
\line
    a) The work must carry prominent notices stating that you modified\line
    it, and giving a relevant date.\line
\line
    b) The work must carry prominent notices stating that it is\line
    released under this License and any conditions added under section\line
    7.  This requirement modifies the requirement in section 4 to\line
    "keep intact all notices".\line
\line
    c) You must license the entire work, as a whole, under this\line
    License to anyone who comes into possession of a copy.  This\line
    License will therefore apply, along with any applicable section 7\line
    additional terms, to the whole of the work, and all its parts,\line
    regardless of how they are packaged.  This License gives no\line
    permission to license the work in any other way, but it does not\line
    invalidate such permission if you have separately received it.\line
\line
    d) If the work has interactive user interfaces, each must display\line
    Appropriate Legal Notices; however, if the Program has interactive\line
    interfaces that do not display Appropriate Legal Notices, your\line
    work need not make them do so.\line
\line
  A compilation of a covered work with other separate and independent\line
works, which are not by their nature extensions of the covered work,\line
and which are not combined with it such as to form a larger program,\line
in or on a volume of a storage or distribution medium, is called an\line
"aggregate" if the compilation and its resulting copyright are not\line
used to limit the access or legal rights of the compilation's users\line
beyond what the individual works permit.  Inclusion of a covered work\line
in an aggregate does not cause this License to apply to the other\line
parts of the aggregate.\line
\line
  6. Conveying Non-Source Forms.\line
\line
  You may convey a covered work in object code form under the terms\line
of sections 4 and 5, provided that you also convey the\line
machine-readable Corresponding Source under the terms of this License,\line
in one of these ways:\line
\line
    a) Convey the object code in, or embodied in, a physical product\line
    (including a physical distribution medium), accompanied by the\line
    Corresponding Source fixed on a durable physical medium\line
    customarily used for software interchange.\line
\line
    b) Convey the object code in, or embodied in, a physical product\line
    (including a physical distribution medium), accompanied by a\line
    written offer, valid for at least three years and valid for as\line
    long as you offer spare parts or customer support for that product\line
    model, to give anyone who possesses the object code either (1) a\line
    copy of the Corresponding Source for all the software in the\line
    product that is covered by this License, on a durable physical\line
    medium customarily used for software interchange, for a price no\line
    more than your reasonable cost of physically performing this\line
    conveying of source, or (2) access to copy the\line
    Corresponding Source from a network server at no charge.\line
\line
    c) Convey individual copies of the object code with a copy of the\line
    written offer to provide the Corresponding Source.  This\line
    alternative is allowed only occasionally and noncommercially, and\line
    only if you received the object code with such an offer, in accord\line
    with subsection 6b.\line
\line
    d) Convey the object code by offering access from a designated\line
    place (gratis or for a charge), and offer equivalent access to the\line
    Corresponding Source in the same way through the same place at no\line
    further charge.  You need not require recipients to copy the\line
    Corresponding Source along with the object code.  If the place to\line
    copy the object code is a network server, the Corresponding Source\line
    may be on a different server (operated by you or a third party)\line
    that supports equivalent copying facilities, provided you maintain\line
    clear directions next to the object code saying where to find the\line
    Corresponding Source.  Regardless of what server hosts the\line
    Corresponding Source, you remain obligated to ensure that it is\line
    available for as long as needed to satisfy these requirements.\line
\line
    e) Convey the object code using peer-to-peer transmission, provided\line
    you inform other peers where the object code and Corresponding\line
    Source of the work are being offered to the general public at no\line
    charge under subsection 6d.\line
\line
  A separable portion of the object code, whose source code is excluded\line
from the Corresponding Source as a System Library, need not be\line
included in conveying the object code work.\line
\line
  A "User Product" is either (1) a "consumer product", which means any\line
tangible personal property which is normally used for personal, family,\line
or household purposes, or (2) anything designed or sold for incorporation\line
into a dwelling.  In determining whether a product is a consumer product,\line
doubtful cases shall be resolved in favor of coverage.  For a particular\line
product received by a particular user, "normally used" refers to a\line
typical or common use of that class of product, regardless of the status\line
of the particular user or of the way in which the particular user\line
actually uses, or expects or is expected to use, the product.  A product\line
is a consumer product regardless of whether the product has substantial\line
commercial, industrial or non-consumer uses, unless such uses represent\line
the only significant mode of use of the product.\line
\line
  "Installation Information" for a User Product means any methods,\line
procedures, authorization keys, or other information required to install\line
and execute modified versions of a covered work in that User Product from\line
a modified version of its Corresponding Source.  The information must\line
suffice to ensure that the continued functioning of the modified object\line
code is in no case prevented or interfered with solely because\line
modification has been made.\line
\line
  If you convey an object code work under this section in, or with, or\line
specifically for use in, a User Product, and the conveying occurs as\line
part of a transaction in which the right of possession and use of the\line
User Product is transferred to the recipient in perpetuity or for a\line
fixed term (regardless of how the transaction is characterized), the\line
Corresponding Source conveyed under this section must be accompanied\line
by the Installation Information.  But this requirement does not apply\line
if neither you nor any third party retains the ability to install\line
modified object code on the User Product (for example, the work has\line
been installed in ROM).\line
\line
  The requirement to provide Installation Information does not include a\line
requirement to continue to provide support service, warranty, or updates\line
for a work that has been modified or installed by the recipient, or for\line
the User Product in which it has been modified or installed.  Access to a\line
network may be denied when the modification itself materially and\line
adversely affects the operation of the network or violates the rules and\line
protocols for communication across the network.\line
\line
  Corresponding Source conveyed, and Installation Information provided,\line
in accord with this section must be in a format that is publicly\line
documented (and with an implementation available to the public in\line
source code form), and must require no special password or key for\line
unpacking, reading or copying.\line
\line
  7. Additional Terms.\line
\line
  "Additional permissions" are terms that supplement the terms of this\line
License by making exceptions from one or more of its conditions.\line
Additional permissions that are applicable to the entire Program shall\line
be treated as though they were included in this License, to the extent\line
that they are valid under applicable law.  If additional permissions\line
apply only to part of the Program, that part may be used separately\line
under those permissions, but the entire Program remains governed by\line
this License without regard to the additional permissions.\line
\line
  When you convey a copy of a covered work, you may at your option\line
remove any additional permissions from that copy, or from any part of\line
it.  (Additional permissions may be written to require their own\line
removal in certain cases when you modify the work.)  You may place\line
additional permissions on material, added by you to a covered work,\line
for which you have or can give appropriate copyright permission.\line
\line
  Notwithstanding any other provision of this License, for material you\line
add to a covered work, you may (if authorized by the copyright holders of\line
that material) supplement the terms of this License with terms:\line
\line
    a) Disclaiming warranty or limiting liability differently from the\line
    terms of sections 15 and 16 of this License; or\line
\line
    b) Requiring preservation of specified reasonable legal notices or\line
    author attributions in that material or in the Appropriate Legal\line
    Notices displayed by works containing it; or\line
\line
    c) Prohibiting misrepresentation of the origin of that material, or\line
    requiring that modified versions of such material be marked in\line
    reasonable ways as different from the original version; or\line
\line
    d) Limiting the use for publicity purposes of names of licensors or\line
    authors of the material; or\line
\line
    e) Declining to grant rights under trademark law for use of some\line
    trade names, trademarks, or service marks; or\line
\line
    f) Requiring indemnification of licensors and authors of that\line
    material by anyone who conveys the material (or modified versions of\line
    it) with contractual assumptions of liability to the recipient, for\line
    any liability that these contractual assumptions directly impose on\line
    those licensors and authors.\line
\line
  All other non-permissive additional terms are considered "further\line
restrictions" within the meaning of section 10.  If the Program as you\line
received it, or any part of it, contains a notice stating that it is\line
governed by this License along with a term that is a further\line
restriction, you may remove that term.  If a license document contains\line
a further restriction but permits relicensing or conveying under this\line
License, you may add to a covered work material governed by the terms\line
of that license document, provided that the further restriction does\line
not survive such relicensing or conveying.\line
\line
  If you add terms to a covered work in accord with this section, you\line
must place, in the relevant source files, a statement of the\line
additional terms that apply to those files, or a notice indicating\line
where to find the applicable terms.\line
\line
  Additional terms, permissive or non-permissive, may be stated in the\line
form of a separately written license, or stated as exceptions;\line
the above requirements apply either way.\line
\line
  8. Termination.\line
\line
  You may not propagate or modify a covered work except as expressly\line
provided under this License.  Any attempt otherwise to propagate or\line
modify it is void, and will automatically terminate your rights under\line
this License (including any patent licenses granted under the third\line
paragraph of section 11).\line
\line
  However, if you cease all violation of this License, then your\line
license from a particular copyright holder is reinstated (a)\line
provisionally, unless and until the copyright holder explicitly and\line
finally terminates your license, and (b) permanently, if the copyright\line
holder fails to notify you of the violation by some reasonable means\line
prior to 60 days after the cessation.\line
\line
  Moreover, your license from a particular copyright holder is\line
reinstated permanently if the copyright holder notifies you of the\line
violation by some reasonable means, this is the first time you have\line
received notice of violation of this License (for any work) from that\line
copyright holder, and you cure the violation prior to 30 days after\line
your receipt of the notice.\line
\line
  Termination of your rights under this section does not terminate the\line
licenses of parties who have received copies or rights from you under\line
this License.  If your rights have been terminated and not permanently\line
reinstated, you do not qualify to receive new licenses for the same\line
material under section 10.\line
\line
  9. Acceptance Not Required for Having Copies.\line
\line
  You are not required to accept this License in order to receive or\line
run a copy of the Program.  Ancillary propagation of a covered work\line
occurring solely as a consequence of using peer-to-peer transmission\line
to receive a copy likewise does not require acceptance.  However,\line
nothing other than this License grants you permission to propagate or\line
modify any covered work.  These actions infringe copyright if you do\line
not accept this License.  Therefore, by modifying or propagating a\line
covered work, you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so.\line
\line
  10. Automatic Licensing of Downstream Recipients.\line
\line
  Each time you convey a covered work, the recipient automatically\line
receives a license from the original licensors, to run, modify and\line
propagate that work, subject to this License.  You are not responsible\line
for enforcing compliance by third parties with this License.\line
\line
  An "entity transaction" is a transaction transferring control of an\line
organization, or substantially all assets of one, or subdividing an\line
organization, or merging organizations.  If propagation of a covered\line
work results from an entity transaction, each party to that\line
transaction who receives a copy of the work also receives whatever\line
licenses to the work the party's predecessor in interest had or could\line
give under the previous paragraph, plus a right to possession of the\line
Corresponding Source of the work from the predecessor in interest, if\line
the predecessor has it or can get it with reasonable efforts.\line
\line
  You may not impose any further restrictions on the exercise of the\line
rights granted or affirmed under this License.  For example, you may\line
not impose a license fee, royalty, or other charge for exercise of\line
rights granted under this License, and you may not initiate litigation\line
(including a cross-claim or counterclaim in a lawsuit) alleging that\line
any patent claim is infringed by making, using, selling, offering for\line
sale, or importing the Program or any portion of it.\line
\line
  11. Patents.\line
\line
  A "contributor" is a copyright holder who authorizes use under this\line
License of the Program or a work on which the Program is based.  The\line
work thus licensed is called the contributor's "contributor version".\line
\line
  A contributor's "essential patent claims" are all patent claims\line
owned or controlled by the contributor, whether already acquired or\line
hereafter acquired, that would be infringed by some manner, permitted\line
by this License, of making, using, or selling its contributor version,\line
but do not include claims that would be infringed only as a\line
consequence of further modification of the contributor version.  For\line
purposes of this definition, "control" includes the right to grant\line
patent sublicenses in a manner consistent with the requirements of\line
this License.\line
\line
  Each contributor grants you a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free\line
patent license under the contributor's essential patent claims, to\line
make, use, sell, offer for sale, import and otherwise run, modify and\line
propagate the contents of its contributor version.\line
\line
  In the following three paragraphs, a "patent license" is any express\line
agreement or commitment, however denominated, not to enforce a patent\line
(such as an express permission to practice a patent or covenant not to\line
sue for patent infringement).  To "grant" such a patent license to a\line
party means to make such an agreement or commitment not to enforce a\line
patent against the party.\line
\line
  If you convey a covered work, knowingly relying on a patent license,\line
and the Corresponding Source of the work is not available for anyone\line
to copy, free of charge and under the terms of this License, through a\line
publicly available network server or other readily accessible means,\line
then you must either (1) cause the Corresponding Source to be so\line
available, or (2) arrange to deprive yourself of the benefit of the\line
patent license for this particular work, or (3) arrange, in a manner\line
consistent with the requirements of this License, to extend the patent\line
license to downstream recipients.  "Knowingly relying" means you have\line
actual knowledge that, but for the patent license, your conveying the\line
covered work in a country, or your recipient's use of the covered work\line
in a country, would infringe one or more identifiable patents in that\line
country that you have reason to believe are valid.\line
\line
  If, pursuant to or in connection with a single transaction or\line
arrangement, you convey, or propagate by procuring conveyance of, a\line
covered work, and grant a patent license to some of the parties\line
receiving the covered work authorizing them to use, propagate, modify\line
or convey a specific copy of the covered work, then the patent license\line
you grant is automatically extended to all recipients of the covered\line
work and works based on it.\line
\line
  A patent license is "discriminatory" if it does not include within\line
the scope of its coverage, prohibits the exercise of, or is\line
conditioned on the non-exercise of one or more of the rights that are\line
specifically granted under this License.  You may not convey a covered\line
work if you are a party to an arrangement with a third party that is\line
in the business of distributing software, under which you make payment\line
to the third party based on the extent of your activity of conveying\line
the work, and under which the third party grants, to any of the\line
parties who would receive the covered work from you, a discriminatory\line
patent license (a) in connection with copies of the covered work\line
conveyed by you (or copies made from those copies), or (b) primarily\line
for and in connection with specific products or compilations that\line
contain the covered work, unless you entered into that arrangement,\line
or that patent license was granted, prior to 28 March 2007.\line
\line
  Nothing in this License shall be construed as excluding or limiting\line
any implied license or other defenses to infringement that may\line
otherwise be available to you under applicable patent law.\line
\line
  12. No Surrender of Others' Freedom.\line
\line
  If conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or\line
otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not\line
excuse you from the conditions of this License.  If you cannot convey a\line
covered work so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this\line
License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you may\line
not convey it at all.  For example, if you agree to terms that obligate you\line
to collect a royalty for further conveying from those to whom you convey\line
the Program, the only way you could satisfy both those terms and this\line
License would be to refrain entirely from conveying the Program.\line
\line
  13. Use with the GNU Affero General Public License.\line
\line
  Notwithstanding any other provision of this License, you have\line
permission to link or combine any covered work with a work licensed\line
under version 3 of the GNU Affero General Public License into a single\line
combined work, and to convey the resulting work.  The terms of this\line
License will continue to apply to the part which is the covered work,\line
but the special requirements of the GNU Affero General Public License,\line
section 13, concerning interaction through a network will apply to the\line
combination as such.\line
\line
  14. Revised Versions of this License.\line
\line
  The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions of\line
the GNU General Public License from time to time.  Such new versions will\line
be similar in spirit to the present version, but may differ in detail to\line
address new problems or concerns.\line
\line
  Each version is given a distinguishing version number.  If the\line
Program specifies that a certain numbered version of the GNU General\line
Public License "or any later version" applies to it, you have the\line
option of following the terms and conditions either of that numbered\line
version or of any later version published by the Free Software\line
Foundation.  If the Program does not specify a version number of the\line
GNU General Public License, you may choose any version ever published\line
by the Free Software Foundation.\line
\line
  If the Program specifies that a proxy can decide which future\line
versions of the GNU General Public License can be used, that proxy's\line
public statement of acceptance of a version permanently authorizes you\line
to choose that version for the Program.\line
\line
  Later license versions may give you additional or different\line
permissions.  However, no additional obligations are imposed on any\line
author or copyright holder as a result of your choosing to follow a\line
later version.\line
\line
  15. Disclaimer of Warranty.\line
\line
  THERE IS NO WARRANTY FOR THE PROGRAM, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY\line
APPLICABLE LAW.  EXCEPT WHEN OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT\line
HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER PARTIES PROVIDE THE PROGRAM "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY\line
OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO,\line
THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR\line
PURPOSE.  THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE PROGRAM\line
IS WITH YOU.  SHOULD THE PROGRAM PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE COST OF\line
ALL NECESSARY SERVICING, REPAIR OR CORRECTION.\line
\line
  16. Limitation of Liability.\line
\line
  IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN WRITING\line
WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MODIFIES AND/OR CONVEYS\line
THE PROGRAM AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES, INCLUDING ANY\line
GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THE\line
USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF\line
DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY YOU OR THIRD\line
PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF THE PROGRAM TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER PROGRAMS),\line
EVEN IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF\line
SUCH DAMAGES.\line
\line
  17. Interpretation of Sections 15 and 16.\line
\line
  If the disclaimer of warranty and limitation of liability provided\line
above cannot be given local legal effect according to their terms,\line
reviewing courts shall apply local law that most closely approximates\line
an absolute waiver of all civil liability in connection with the\line
Program, unless a warranty or assumption of liability accompanies a\line
copy of the Program in return for a fee.\line
\line
                     END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS\line
\line
            How to Apply These Terms to Your New Programs\line
\line
  If you develop a new program, and you want it to be of the greatest\line
possible use to the public, the best way to achieve this is to make it\line
free software which everyone can redistribute and change under these terms.\line
\line
  To do so, attach the following notices to the program.  It is safest\line
to attach them to the start of each source file to most effectively\line
state the exclusion of warranty; and each file should have at least\line
the "copyright" line and a pointer to where the full notice is found.\line
\line
    <one line to give the program's name and a brief idea of what it does.>\line
    Copyright (C) <year>  <name of author>\line
\line
    This program is free software: you can redistribute it and/or modify\line
    it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by\line
    the Free Software Foundation, either version 3 of the License, or\line
    (at your option) any later version.\line
\line
    This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful,\line
    but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of\line
    MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.  See the\line
    GNU General Public License for more details.\line
\line
    You should have received a copy of the GNU General Public License\line
    along with this program.  If not, see <https://www.gnu.org/licenses/>.\line
\line
Also add information on how to contact you by electronic and paper mail.\line
\line
  If the program does terminal interaction, make it output a short\line
notice like this when it starts in an interactive mode:\line
\line
    <program>  Copyright (C) <year>  <name of author>\line
    This program comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY; for details type `show w'.\line
    This is free software, and you are welcome to redistribute it\line
    under certain conditions; type `show c' for details.\line
\line
The hypothetical commands `show w' and `show c' should show the appropriate\line
parts of the General Public License.  Of course, your program's commands\line
might be different; for a GUI interface, you would use an "about box".\line
\line
  You should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer) or school,\line
if any, to sign a "copyright disclaimer" for the program, if necessary.\line
For more information on this, and how to apply and follow the GNU GPL, see\line
<https://www.gnu.org/licenses/>.\line
\line
  The GNU General Public License does not permit incorporating your program\line
into proprietary programs.  If your program is a subroutine library, you\line
may consider it more useful to permit linking proprietary applications with\line
the library.  If this is what you want to do, use the GNU Lesser General\line
Public License instead of this License.  But first, please read\line
<https://www.gnu.org/licenses/why-not-lgpl.html>.\line
