|
||
freedom to share and change it. By contrast, the GNU General Public License is
|
||
intended to guarantee your freedom to share and change
|
||
free software - to make sure the software is free for all its users.
|
||
This General Public License applies to most of the Free Software
|
||
Foundation's software and to any other program whose authors commit
|
||
to using it. (Some other Free Software Foundation software is covered
|
||
by the GNU Library General Public License instead.) You can apply it
|
||
to your programs, too.</p><p>When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not price.
|
||
Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that you have the
|
||
freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge for this
|
||
service if you wish), that you receive source code or can get it if you
|
||
want it, that you can change the software or use pieces of it in new free
|
||
programs; and that you know you can do these things.</p><p>To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that forbid anyone
|
||
to deny you these rights or to ask you to surrender the rights. These
|
||
restrictions translate to certain responsibilities for you if you distribute
|
||
copies of the software, or if you modify it.</p><p>For example, if you distribute copies of such a program, whether gratis or
|
||
for a fee, you must give the recipients all the rights that you have. You
|
||
must make sure that they, too, receive or can get the source code. And you
|
||
must show them these terms so they know their rights.</p><p>We protect your rights with two steps:
|
||
</p><div class="orderedlist"><ol type="1"><li><p>copyright the software, and</p></li><li><p>offer you this license which gives you legal permission to copy,
|
||
distribute and/or modify the software.</p></li></ol></div><p>
|
||
</p><p>Also, for each author's protection and ours, we want to make certain that
|
||
everyone understands that there is no warranty for this free software. If
|
||
the software is modified by someone else and passed on, we want its
|
||
recipients to know that what they have is not the original, so that any
|
||
problems introduced by others will not reflect on the original authors'
|
||
reputations.</p><p>Finally, any free program is threatened constantly by software patents.
|
||
We wish to avoid the danger that redistributors of a free program will
|
||
individually obtain patent licenses, in effect making the program
|
||
proprietary. To prevent this, we have made it clear that any patent must be
|
||
licensed for everyone's free use or not licensed at all.</p><p>The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and modification
|
||
follow.</p></div></div><div class="navfooter"><hr /><table width="100%" summary="Navigation footer"><tr><td width="40%" align="left"><a accesskey="p" href="appendix_free.html">Prev</a> </td><td width="20%" align="center"><a accesskey="u" href="spine.html">Up</a></td><td width="40%" align="right"> <a accesskey="n" href="bk01apds02.html">Next</a></td></tr><tr><td width="40%" align="left" valign="top">Appendix C.
