rosfran@253:  Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies
rosfran@253:  of this license document, but changing it is not allowed.
rosfran@253: 
rosfran@253: [This is the first released version of the Lesser GPL.  It also counts
rosfran@253:  as the successor of the GNU Library Public License, version 2, hence
rosfran@253:  the version number 2.1.]
rosfran@253: 
rosfran@253: 			    Preamble
rosfran@253: 
rosfran@253:   The licenses for most software are designed to take away your
rosfran@253: freedom to share and change it.  By contrast, the GNU General Public
rosfran@253: Licenses are intended to guarantee your freedom to share and change
rosfran@253: free software--to make sure the software is free for all its users.
rosfran@253: 
rosfran@253:   This license, the Lesser General Public License, applies to some
rosfran@253: specially designated software packages--typically libraries--of the
rosfran@253: Free Software Foundation and other authors who decide to use it.  You
rosfran@253: can use it too, but we suggest you first think carefully about whether
rosfran@253: this license or the ordinary General Public License is the better
rosfran@253: strategy to use in any particular case, based on the explanations below.
rosfran@253: 
rosfran@253:   When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom of use,
rosfran@253: not price.  Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that
rosfran@253: you have the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge
rosfran@253: for this service if you wish); that you receive source code or can get
rosfran@253: it if you want it; that you can change the software and use pieces of
rosfran@253: it in new free programs; and that you are informed that you can do
rosfran@253: these things.
rosfran@253: 
rosfran@253:   To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that forbid
rosfran@253: distributors to deny you these rights or to ask you to surrender these
rosfran@253: rights.  These restrictions translate to certain responsibilities for
rosfran@253: you if you distribute copies of the library or if you modify it.
rosfran@253: 
rosfran@253:   For example, if you distribute copies of the library, whether gratis
rosfran@253: or for a fee, you must give the recipients all the rights that we gave
rosfran@253: you.  You must make sure that they, too, receive or can get the source
rosfran@253: code.  If you link other code with the library, you must provide
rosfran@253: complete object files to the recipients, so that they can relink them
rosfran@253: with the library after making changes to the library and recompiling
rosfran@253: it.  And you must show them these terms so they know their rights.
rosfran@253: 
rosfran@253:   We protect your rights with a two-step method: (1) we copyright the
rosfran@253: library, and (2) we offer you this license, which gives you legal
rosfran@253: permission to copy, distribute and/or modify the library.
rosfran@253: 
rosfran@253:   To protect each distributor, we want to make it very clear that
rosfran@253: there is no warranty for the free library.  Also, if the library is
rosfran@253: modified by someone else and passed on, the recipients should know
rosfran@253: that what they have is not the original version, so that the original
rosfran@253: author's reputation will not be affected by problems that might be
rosfran@253: introduced by others.
rosfran@253: 
rosfran@253:   Finally, software patents pose a constant threat to the existence of
rosfran@253: any free program.  We wish to make sure that a company cannot
rosfran@253: effectively restrict the users of a free program by obtaining a
rosfran@253: restrictive license from a patent holder.  Therefore, we insist that
rosfran@253: any patent license obtained for a version of the library must be
rosfran@253: consistent with the full freedom of use specified in this license.
rosfran@253: 
rosfran@253:   Most GNU software, including some libraries, is covered by the
rosfran@253: ordinary GNU General Public License.  This license, the GNU Lesser
rosfran@253: General Public License, applies to certain designated libraries, and
rosfran@253: is quite different from the ordinary General Public License.  We use
rosfran@253: this license for certain libraries in order to permit linking those
rosfran@253: libraries into non-free programs.
rosfran@253: 
rosfran@253:   When a program is linked with a library, whether statically or using
rosfran@253: a shared library, the combination of the two is legally speaking a
rosfran@253: combined work, a derivative of the original library.  The ordinary
rosfran@253: General Public License therefore permits such linking only if the
rosfran@253: entire combination fits its criteria of freedom.  The Lesser General
rosfran@253: Public License permits more lax criteria for linking other code with
rosfran@253: the library.
rosfran@253: 
rosfran@253:   We call this license the "Lesser" General Public License because it
rosfran@253: does Less to protect the user's freedom than the ordinary General
rosfran@253: Public License.  It also provides other free software developers Less
rosfran@253: of an advantage over competing non-free programs.  These disadvantages
rosfran@253: are the reason we use the ordinary General Public License for many
rosfran@253: libraries.  However, the Lesser license provides advantages in certain
rosfran@253: special circumstances.
rosfran@253: 
rosfran@253:   For example, on rare occasions, there may be a special need to
rosfran@253: encourage the widest possible use of a certain library, so that it becomes
rosfran@253: a de-facto standard.  To achieve this, non-free programs must be
rosfran@253: allowed to use the library.  A more frequent case is that a free
rosfran@253: library does the same job as widely used non-free libraries.  In this
rosfran@253: case, there is little to gain by limiting the free library to free
rosfran@253: software only, so we use the Lesser General Public License.
rosfran@253: 
rosfran@253:   In other cases, permission to use a particular library in non-free
rosfran@253: programs enables a greater number of people to use a large body of
rosfran@253: free software.  For example, permission to use the GNU C Library in
rosfran@253: non-free programs enables many more people to use the whole GNU
rosfran@253: operating system, as well as its variant, the GNU/Linux operating
rosfran@253: system.
rosfran@253: 
rosfran@253:   Although the Lesser General Public License is Less protective of the
rosfran@253: users' freedom, it does ensure that the user of a program that is
rosfran@253: linked with the Library has the freedom and the wherewithal to run
rosfran@253: that program using a modified version of the Library.
rosfran@253: 
rosfran@253:   The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and
rosfran@253: modification follow.  Pay close attention to the difference between a
rosfran@253: "work based on the library" and a "work that uses the library".  The
rosfran@253: former contains code derived from the library, whereas the latter must
rosfran@253: be combined with the library in order to run.
rosfran@253: 
rosfran@253: 		  GNU LESSER GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE
rosfran@253:    TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION
rosfran@253: 
rosfran@253:   0. This License Agreement applies to any software library or other
rosfran@253: program which contains a notice placed by the copyright holder or
rosfran@253: other authorized party saying it may be distributed under the terms of
rosfran@253: this Lesser General Public License (also called "this License").
rosfran@253: Each licensee is addressed as "you".
rosfran@253: 
rosfran@253:   A "library" means a collection of software functions and/or data
rosfran@253: prepared so as to be conveniently linked with application programs
rosfran@253: (which use some of those functions and data) to form executables.
rosfran@253: 
rosfran@253:   The "Library", below, refers to any such software library or work
rosfran@253: which has been distributed under these terms.  A "work based on the
rosfran@253: Library" means either the Library or any derivative work under
rosfran@253: copyright law: that is to say, a work containing the Library or a
rosfran@253: portion of it, either verbatim or with modifications and/or translated
rosfran@253: straightforwardly into another language.  (Hereinafter, translation is
rosfran@253: included without limitation in the term "modification".)
rosfran@253: 
rosfran@253:   "Source code" for a work means the preferred form of the work for
rosfran@253: making modifications to it.  For a library, complete source code means
rosfran@253: all the source code for all modules it contains, plus any associated
rosfran@253: interface definition files, plus the scripts used to control compilation
rosfran@253: and installation of the library.
rosfran@253: 
rosfran@253:   Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are not
rosfran@253: covered by this License; they are outside its scope.  The act of
rosfran@253: running a program using the Library is not restricted, and output from
rosfran@253: such a program is covered only if its contents constitute a work based
rosfran@253: on the Library (independent of the use of the Library in a tool for
rosfran@253: writing it).  Whether that is true depends on what the Library does
rosfran@253: and what the program that uses the Library does.
rosfran@253:   
rosfran@253:   1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Library's
rosfran@253: complete source code as you receive it, in any medium, provided that
rosfran@253: you conspicuously and appropriately publish on each copy an
rosfran@253: appropriate copyright notice and disclaimer of warranty; keep intact
rosfran@253: all the notices that refer to this License and to the absence of any
rosfran@253: warranty; and distribute a copy of this License along with the
rosfran@253: Library.
rosfran@253: 
rosfran@253:   You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy,
rosfran@253: and you may at your option offer warranty protection in exchange for a
rosfran@253: fee.
rosfran@253: 
rosfran@253:   2. You may modify your copy or copies of the Library or any portion
rosfran@253: of it, thus forming a work based on the Library, and copy and
rosfran@253: distribute such modifications or work under the terms of Section 1
rosfran@253: above, provided that you also meet all of these conditions:
rosfran@253: 
rosfran@253:     a) The modified work must itself be a software library.
rosfran@253: 
rosfran@253:     b) You must cause the files modified to carry prominent notices
rosfran@253:     stating that you changed the files and the date of any change.
rosfran@253: 
rosfran@253:     c) You must cause the whole of the work to be licensed at no
rosfran@253:     charge to all third parties under the terms of this License.
rosfran@253: 
rosfran@253:     d) If a facility in the modified Library refers to a function or a
rosfran@253:     table of data to be supplied by an application program that uses
rosfran@253:     the facility, other than as an argument passed when the facility
rosfran@253:     is invoked, then you must make a good faith effort to ensure that,
rosfran@253:     in the event an application does not supply such function or
rosfran@253:     table, the facility still operates, and performs whatever part of
rosfran@253:     its purpose remains meaningful.
rosfran@253: 
rosfran@253:     (For example, a function in a library to compute square roots has
rosfran@253:     a purpose that is entirely well-defined independent of the
rosfran@253:     application.  Therefore, Subsection 2d requires that any
rosfran@253:     application-supplied function or table used by this function must
rosfran@253:     be optional: if the application does not supply it, the square
rosfran@253:     root function must still compute square roots.)
rosfran@253: 
rosfran@253: These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole.  If
rosfran@253: identifiable sections of that work are not derived from the Library,
rosfran@253: and can be reasonably considered independent and separate works in
rosfran@253: themselves, then this License, and its terms, do not apply to those
rosfran@253: sections when you distribute them as separate works.  But when you
rosfran@253: distribute the same sections as part of a whole which is a work based
rosfran@253: on the Library, the distribution of the whole must be on the terms of
rosfran@253: this License, whose permissions for other licensees extend to the
rosfran@253: entire whole, and thus to each and every part regardless of who wrote
rosfran@253: it.
rosfran@253: 
rosfran@253: Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest
rosfran@253: your rights to work written entirely by you; rather, the intent is to
rosfran@253: exercise the right to control the distribution of derivative or
rosfran@253: collective works based on the Library.
rosfran@253: 
rosfran@253: In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the Library
rosfran@253: with the Library (or with a work based on the Library) on a volume of
rosfran@253: a storage or distribution medium does not bring the other work under
rosfran@253: the scope of this License.
rosfran@253: 
rosfran@253:   3. You may opt to apply the terms of the ordinary GNU General Public
rosfran@253: License instead of this License to a given copy of the Library.  To do
rosfran@253: this, you must alter all the notices that refer to this License, so
rosfran@253: that they refer to the ordinary GNU General Public License, version 2,
rosfran@253: instead of to this License.  (If a newer version than version 2 of the
rosfran@253: ordinary GNU General Public License has appeared, then you can specify
rosfran@253: that version instead if you wish.)  Do not make any other change in
rosfran@253: these notices.
rosfran@253: 
rosfran@253:   Once this change is made in a given copy, it is irreversible for
rosfran@253: that copy, so the ordinary GNU General Public License applies to all
rosfran@253: subsequent copies and derivative works made from that copy.
rosfran@253: 
rosfran@253:   This option is useful when you wish to copy part of the code of
rosfran@253: the Library into a program that is not a library.
rosfran@253: 
rosfran@253:   4. You may copy and distribute the Library (or a portion or
rosfran@253: derivative of it, under Section 2) in object code or executable form
rosfran@253: under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above provided that you accompany
rosfran@253: it with the complete corresponding machine-readable source code, which
rosfran@253: must be distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a
rosfran@253: medium customarily used for software interchange.
rosfran@253: 
rosfran@253:   If distribution of object code is made by offering access to copy
rosfran@253: from a designated place, then offering equivalent access to copy the
rosfran@253: source code from the same place satisfies the requirement to
rosfran@253: distribute the source code, even though third parties are not
rosfran@253: compelled to copy the source along with the object code.
rosfran@253: 
rosfran@253:   5. A program that contains no derivative of any portion of the
rosfran@253: Library, but is designed to work with the Library by being compiled or
rosfran@253: linked with it, is called a "work that uses the Library".  Such a
rosfran@253: work, in isolation, is not a derivative work of the Library, and
rosfran@253: therefore falls outside the scope of this License.
rosfran@253: 
rosfran@253:   However, linking a "work that uses the Library" with the Library
rosfran@253: creates an executable that is a derivative of the Library (because it
rosfran@253: contains portions of the Library), rather than a "work that uses the
rosfran@253: library".  The executable is therefore covered by this License.
rosfran@253: Section 6 states terms for distribution of such executables.
rosfran@253: 
rosfran@253:   When a "work that uses the Library" uses material from a header file
rosfran@253: that is part of the Library, the object code for the work may be a
rosfran@253: derivative work of the Library even though the source code is not.
rosfran@253: Whether this is true is especially significant if the work can be
rosfran@253: linked without the Library, or if the work is itself a library.  The
rosfran@253: threshold for this to be true is not precisely defined by law.
rosfran@253: 
rosfran@253:   If such an object file uses only numerical parameters, data
rosfran@253: structure layouts and accessors, and small macros and small inline
rosfran@253: functions (ten lines or less in length), then the use of the object
rosfran@253: file is unrestricted, regardless of whether it is legally a derivative
rosfran@253: work.  (Executables containing this object code plus portions of the
rosfran@253: Library will still fall under Section 6.)
rosfran@253: 
rosfran@253:   Otherwise, if the work is a derivative of the Library, you may
rosfran@253: distribute the object code for the work under the terms of Section 6.
rosfran@253: Any executables containing that work also fall under Section 6,
rosfran@253: whether or not they are linked directly with the Library itself.
rosfran@253: 
rosfran@253:   6. As an exception to the Sections above, you may also combine or
rosfran@253: link a "work that uses the Library" with the Library to produce a
rosfran@253: work containing portions of the Library, and distribute that work
rosfran@253: under terms of your choice, provided that the terms permit
rosfran@253: modification of the work for the customer's own use and reverse
rosfran@253: engineering for debugging such modifications.
rosfran@253: 
rosfran@253:   You must give prominent notice with each copy of the work that the
rosfran@253: Library is used in it and that the Library and its use are covered by
rosfran@253: this License.  You must supply a copy of this License.  If the work
rosfran@253: during execution displays copyright notices, you must include the
rosfran@253: copyright notice for the Library among them, as well as a reference
rosfran@253: directing the user to the copy of this License.  Also, you must do one
rosfran@253: of these things:
rosfran@253: 
rosfran@253:     a) Accompany the work with the complete corresponding
rosfran@253:     machine-readable source code for the Library including whatever
rosfran@253:     changes were used in the work (which must be distributed under
rosfran@253:     Sections 1 and 2 above); and, if the work is an executable linked
rosfran@253:     with the Library, with the complete machine-readable "work that
rosfran@253:     uses the Library", as object code and/or source code, so that the
rosfran@253:     user can modify the Library and then relink to produce a modified
rosfran@253:     executable containing the modified Library.  (It is understood
rosfran@253:     that the user who changes the contents of definitions files in the
rosfran@253:     Library will not necessarily be able to recompile the application
rosfran@253:     to use the modified definitions.)
rosfran@253: 
rosfran@253:     b) Use a suitable shared library mechanism for linking with the
rosfran@253:     Library.  A suitable mechanism is one that (1) uses at run time a
rosfran@253:     copy of the library already present on the user's computer system,
rosfran@253:     rather than copying library functions into the executable, and (2)
rosfran@253:     will operate properly with a modified version of the library, if
rosfran@253:     the user installs one, as long as the modified version is
rosfran@253:     interface-compatible with the version that the work was made with.
rosfran@253: 
rosfran@253:     c) Accompany the work with a written offer, valid for at
rosfran@253:     least three years, to give the same user the materials
rosfran@253:     specified in Subsection 6a, above, for a charge no more
rosfran@253:     than the cost of performing this distribution.
rosfran@253: 
rosfran@253:     d) If distribution of the work is made by offering access to copy
rosfran@253:     from a designated place, offer equivalent access to copy the above
rosfran@253:     specified materials from the same place.
rosfran@253: 
rosfran@253:     e) Verify that the user has already received a copy of these
rosfran@253:     materials or that you have already sent this user a copy.
rosfran@253: 
rosfran@253:   For an executable, the required form of the "work that uses the
rosfran@253: Library" must include any data and utility programs needed for
rosfran@253: reproducing the executable from it.  However, as a special exception,
rosfran@253: the materials to be distributed need not include anything that is
rosfran@253: normally distributed (in either source or binary form) with the major
rosfran@253: components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of the operating system on
rosfran@253: which the executable runs, unless that component itself accompanies
rosfran@253: the executable.
rosfran@253: 
rosfran@253:   It may happen that this requirement contradicts the license
rosfran@253: restrictions of other proprietary libraries that do not normally
rosfran@253: accompany the operating system.  Such a contradiction means you cannot
rosfran@253: use both them and the Library together in an executable that you
rosfran@253: distribute.
rosfran@253: 
rosfran@253:   7. You may place library facilities that are a work based on the
rosfran@253: Library side-by-side in a single library together with other library
rosfran@253: facilities not covered by this License, and distribute such a combined
rosfran@253: library, provided that the separate distribution of the work based on
rosfran@253: the Library and of the other library facilities is otherwise
rosfran@253: permitted, and provided that you do these two things:
rosfran@253: 
rosfran@253:     a) Accompany the combined library with a copy of the same work
rosfran@253:     based on the Library, uncombined with any other library
rosfran@253:     facilities.  This must be distributed under the terms of the
rosfran@253:     Sections above.
rosfran@253: 
rosfran@253:     b) Give prominent notice with the combined library of the fact
rosfran@253:     that part of it is a work based on the Library, and explaining
rosfran@253:     where to find the accompanying uncombined form of the same work.
rosfran@253: 
rosfran@253:   8. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, link with, or distribute
rosfran@253: the Library except as expressly provided under this License.  Any
rosfran@253: attempt otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense, link with, or
rosfran@253: distribute the Library is void, and will automatically terminate your
rosfran@253: rights under this License.  However, parties who have received copies,
rosfran@253: or rights, from you under this License will not have their licenses
rosfran@253: terminated so long as such parties remain in full compliance.
rosfran@253: 
rosfran@253:   9. You are not required to accept this License, since you have not
rosfran@253: signed it.  However, nothing else grants you permission to modify or
rosfran@253: distribute the Library or its derivative works.  These actions are
rosfran@253: prohibited by law if you do not accept this License.  Therefore, by
rosfran@253: modifying or distributing the Library (or any work based on the
rosfran@253: Library), you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so, and
rosfran@253: all its terms and conditions for copying, distributing or modifying
rosfran@253: the Library or works based on it.
rosfran@253: 
rosfran@253:   10. Each time you redistribute the Library (or any work based on the
rosfran@253: Library), the recipient automatically receives a license from the
rosfran@253: original licensor to copy, distribute, link with or modify the Library
rosfran@253: subject to these terms and conditions.  You may not impose any further
rosfran@253: restrictions on the recipients' exercise of the rights granted herein.
rosfran@253: You are not responsible for enforcing compliance by third parties with
rosfran@253: this License.
rosfran@253: 
rosfran@253:   11. If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent
rosfran@253: infringement or for any other reason (not limited to patent issues),
rosfran@253: conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or
rosfran@253: otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not
rosfran@253: excuse you from the conditions of this License.  If you cannot
rosfran@253: distribute so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this
rosfran@253: License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you
rosfran@253: may not distribute the Library at all.  For example, if a patent
rosfran@253: license would not permit royalty-free redistribution of the Library by
rosfran@253: all those who receive copies directly or indirectly through you, then
rosfran@253: the only way you could satisfy both it and this License would be to
rosfran@253: refrain entirely from distribution of the Library.
rosfran@253: 
rosfran@253: If any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable under any
rosfran@253: particular circumstance, the balance of the section is intended to apply,
rosfran@253: and the section as a whole is intended to apply in other circumstances.
rosfran@253: 
rosfran@253: It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe any
rosfran@253: patents or other property right claims or to contest validity of any
rosfran@253: such claims; this section has the sole purpose of protecting the
rosfran@253: integrity of the free software distribution system which is
rosfran@253: implemented by public license practices.  Many people have made
rosfran@253: generous contributions to the wide range of software distributed
rosfran@253: through that system in reliance on consistent application of that
rosfran@253: system; it is up to the author/donor to decide if he or she is willing
rosfran@253: to distribute software through any other system and a licensee cannot
rosfran@253: impose that choice.
rosfran@253: 
rosfran@253: This section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is believed to
rosfran@253: be a consequence of the rest of this License.
rosfran@253: 
rosfran@253:   12. If the distribution and/or use of the Library is restricted in
rosfran@253: certain countries either by patents or by copyrighted interfaces, the
rosfran@253: original copyright holder who places the Library under this License may add
rosfran@253: an explicit geographical distribution limitation excluding those countries,
rosfran@253: so that distribution is permitted only in or among countries not thus
rosfran@253: excluded.  In such case, this License incorporates the limitation as if
rosfran@253: written in the body of this License.
rosfran@253: 
rosfran@253:   13. The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new
rosfran@253: versions of the Lesser General Public License from time to time.
rosfran@253: Such new versions will be similar in spirit to the present version,
rosfran@253: but may differ in detail to address new problems or concerns.
rosfran@253: 
rosfran@253: Each version is given a distinguishing version number.  If the Library
rosfran@253: specifies a version number of this License which applies to it and
rosfran@253: "any later version", you have the option of following the terms and
rosfran@253: conditions either of that version or of any later version published by
rosfran@253: the Free Software Foundation.  If the Library does not specify a
rosfran@253: license version number, you may choose any version ever published by
rosfran@253: the Free Software Foundation.
rosfran@253: 
rosfran@253:   14. If you wish to incorporate parts of the Library into other free
rosfran@253: programs whose distribution conditions are incompatible with these,
rosfran@253: write to the author to ask for permission.  For software which is
rosfran@253: copyrighted by the Free Software Foundation, write to the Free
rosfran@253: Software Foundation; we sometimes make exceptions for this.  Our
rosfran@253: decision will be guided by the two goals of preserving the free status
rosfran@253: of all derivatives of our free software and of promoting the sharing
rosfran@253: and reuse of software generally.
rosfran@253: 
rosfran@253: 			    NO WARRANTY
rosfran@253: 
rosfran@253:   15. BECAUSE THE LIBRARY IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE, THERE IS NO
rosfran@253: WARRANTY FOR THE LIBRARY, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW.
rosfran@253: EXCEPT WHEN OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS AND/OR
rosfran@253: OTHER PARTIES PROVIDE THE LIBRARY "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY
rosfran@253: KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE
rosfran@253: IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR
rosfran@253: PURPOSE.  THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE
rosfran@253: LIBRARY IS WITH YOU.  SHOULD THE LIBRARY PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME
rosfran@253: THE COST OF ALL NECESSARY SERVICING, REPAIR OR CORRECTION.
rosfran@253: 
rosfran@253:   16. IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN
rosfran@253: WRITING WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MAY MODIFY
rosfran@253: AND/OR REDISTRIBUTE THE LIBRARY AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU
rosfran@253: FOR DAMAGES, INCLUDING ANY GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR
rosfran@253: CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE
rosfran@253: LIBRARY (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF DATA OR DATA BEING
rosfran@253: RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY YOU OR THIRD PARTIES OR A
rosfran@253: FAILURE OF THE LIBRARY TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER SOFTWARE), EVEN IF
rosfran@253: SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH
rosfran@253: DAMAGES.
rosfran@253: 
rosfran@253: 		     END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS

rosfran@253:            How to Apply These Terms to Your New Libraries
rosfran@253: 
rosfran@253:   If you develop a new library, and you want it to be of the greatest
rosfran@253: possible use to the public, we recommend making it free software that
rosfran@253: everyone can redistribute and change.  You can do so by permitting
rosfran@253: redistribution under these terms (or, alternatively, under the terms of the
rosfran@253: ordinary General Public License).
rosfran@253: 
rosfran@253:   To apply these terms, attach the following notices to the library.  It is
rosfran@253: safest to attach them to the start of each source file to most effectively
rosfran@253: convey the exclusion of warranty; and each file should have at least the
rosfran@253: "copyright" line and a pointer to where the full notice is found.
rosfran@253: 
rosfran@253:     <one line to give the library's name and a brief idea of what it does.>
rosfran@253:     Copyright (C) <year>  <name of author>
rosfran@253: 
rosfran@253:     This library is free software; you can redistribute it and/or
rosfran@253:     modify it under the terms of the GNU Lesser General Public
rosfran@253:     License as published by the Free Software Foundation; either
rosfran@253:     version 2.1 of the License, or (at your option) any later version.
rosfran@253: 
rosfran@253:     This library is distributed in the hope that it will be useful,
rosfran@253:     but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of
rosfran@253:     MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.  See the GNU
rosfran@253:     Lesser General Public License for more details.
rosfran@253: 
rosfran@253:     You should have received a copy of the GNU Lesser General Public
rosfran@253:     License along with this library; if not, write to the Free Software
rosfran@253:     Foundation, Inc., 51 Franklin St, Fifth Floor, Boston, MA  02110-1301  USA
rosfran@253: 
rosfran@253: Also add information on how to contact you by electronic and paper mail.
rosfran@253: 
rosfran@253: You should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer) or your
rosfran@253: school, if any, to sign a "copyright disclaimer" for the library, if
rosfran@253: necessary.  Here is a sample; alter the names:
rosfran@253: 
rosfran@253:   Yoyodyne, Inc., hereby disclaims all copyright interest in the
rosfran@253:   library `Frob' (a library for tweaking knobs) written by James Random Hacker.
