3In addition, as a special exception, the copyright holders give
4permission to dynamically link rsync with the OpenSSL and xxhash
5libraries when those libraries are being distributed in compliance
6with their license terms, and to distribute a dynamically linked
7combination of rsync and these libraries. This is also considered
8to be covered under the GPL's System Libraries exception.

c627d613 12
dde46951 13 Copyright (C) 2007 Free Software Foundation, Inc. <https://fsf.org/>
c627d613

14 Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies
15 of this license document, but changing it is not allowed.
16
4fd842f9 17 Preamble
c627d613 18
4fd842f9
WD
19 The GNU General Public License is a free, copyleft license for
20software and other kinds of works.
21
22 The licenses for most software and other practical works are designed
23to take away your freedom to share and change the works. By contrast,
24the GNU General Public License is intended to guarantee your freedom to
25share and change all versions of a program--to make sure it remains free
26software for all its users. We, the Free Software Foundation, use the
27GNU General Public License for most of our software; it applies also to
28any other work released this way by its authors. You can apply it to
c627d613
AT
29your programs, too.
30
31 When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not
32price. Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that you
33have the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge for
4fd842f9
WD
34them if you wish), that you receive source code or can get it if you
35want it, that you can change the software or use pieces of it in new
36free programs, and that you know you can do these things.
c627d613 37
4fd842f9
WD
38 To protect your rights, we need to prevent others from denying you
39these rights or asking you to surrender the rights. Therefore, you have
40certain responsibilities if you distribute copies of the software, or if
41you modify it: responsibilities to respect the freedom of others.
c627d613
AT
42
43 For example, if you distribute copies of such a program, whether
4fd842f9
WD
44gratis or for a fee, you must pass on to the recipients the same
45freedoms that you received. You must make sure that they, too, receive
46or can get the source code. And you must show them these terms so they
47know their rights.
48
49 Developers that use the GNU GPL protect your rights with two steps:
50(1) assert copyright on the software, and (2) offer you this License
51giving you legal permission to copy, distribute and/or modify it.
52
53 For the developers' and authors' protection, the GPL clearly explains
54that there is no warranty for this free software. For both users' and
55authors' sake, the GPL requires that modified versions be marked as
56changed, so that their problems will not be attributed erroneously to
57authors of previous versions.
58
59 Some devices are designed to deny users access to install or run
60modified versions of the software inside them, although the manufacturer
61can do so. This is fundamentally incompatible with the aim of
62protecting users' freedom to change the software. The systematic
63pattern of such abuse occurs in the area of products for individuals to
64use, which is precisely where it is most unacceptable. Therefore, we
65have designed this version of the GPL to prohibit the practice for those
66products. If such problems arise substantially in other domains, we
67stand ready to extend this provision to those domains in future versions
68of the GPL, as needed to protect the freedom of users.
69
70 Finally, every program is threatened constantly by software patents.
71States should not allow patents to restrict development and use of
72software on general-purpose computers, but in those that do, we wish to
73avoid the special danger that patents applied to a free program could
74make it effectively proprietary. To prevent this, the GPL assures that
75patents cannot be used to render the program non-free.

80 TERMS AND CONDITIONS
81
82 0. Definitions.
83
84 "This License" refers to version 3 of the GNU General Public License.
85
86 "Copyright" also means copyright-like laws that apply to other kinds of
87works, such as semiconductor masks.
88
89 "The Program" refers to any copyrightable work licensed under this
90License. Each licensee is addressed as "you". "Licensees" and
91"recipients" may be individuals or organizations.
92
93 To "modify" a work means to copy from or adapt all or part of the work
94in a fashion requiring copyright permission, other than the making of an
95exact copy. The resulting work is called a "modified version" of the
96earlier work or a work "based on" the earlier work.
97
98 A "covered work" means either the unmodified Program or a work based
99on the Program.
100
101 To "propagate" a work means to do anything with it that, without
102permission, would make you directly or secondarily liable for
103infringement under applicable copyright law, except executing it on a
104computer or modifying a private copy. Propagation includes copying,
105distribution (with or without modification), making available to the
106public, and in some countries other activities as well.
107
108 To "convey" a work means any kind of propagation that enables other
109parties to make or receive copies. Mere interaction with a user through
110a computer network, with no transfer of a copy, is not conveying.
111
112 An interactive user interface displays "Appropriate Legal Notices"
113to the extent that it includes a convenient and prominently visible
114feature that (1) displays an appropriate copyright notice, and (2)
115tells the user that there is no warranty for the work (except to the
116extent that warranties are provided), that licensees may convey the
117work under this License, and how to view a copy of this License. If
118the interface presents a list of user commands or options, such as a
119menu, a prominent item in the list meets this criterion.
120
121 1. Source Code.
122
123 The "source code" for a work means the preferred form of the work
124for making modifications to it. "Object code" means any non-source
125form of a work.
126
127 A "Standard Interface" means an interface that either is an official
128standard defined by a recognized standards body, or, in the case of
129interfaces specified for a particular programming language, one that
130is widely used among developers working in that language.
131
132 The "System Libraries" of an executable work include anything, other
133than the work as a whole, that (a) is included in the normal form of
134packaging a Major Component, but which is not part of that Major
135Component, and (b) serves only to enable use of the work with that
136Major Component, or to implement a Standard Interface for which an
137implementation is available to the public in source code form. A
138"Major Component", in this context, means a major essential component
139(kernel, window system, and so on) of the specific operating system
140(if any) on which the executable work runs, or a compiler used to
141produce the work, or an object code interpreter used to run it.
142
143 The "Corresponding Source" for a work in object code form means all
144the source code needed to generate, install, and (for an executable
145work) run the object code and to modify the work, including scripts to
146control those activities. However, it does not include the work's
147System Libraries, or general-purpose tools or generally available free
148programs which are used unmodified in performing those activities but
149which are not part of the work. For example, Corresponding Source
150includes interface definition files associated with source files for
151the work, and the source code for shared libraries and dynamically
152linked subprograms that the work is specifically designed to require,
153such as by intimate data communication or control flow between those
154subprograms and other parts of the work.
155
156 The Corresponding Source need not include anything that users
157can regenerate automatically from other parts of the Corresponding
158Source.
159
160 The Corresponding Source for a work in source code form is that
161same work.
162
163 2. Basic Permissions.
164
165 All rights granted under this License are granted for the term of
166copyright on the Program, and are irrevocable provided the stated
167conditions are met. This License explicitly affirms your unlimited
168permission to run the unmodified Program. The output from running a
169covered work is covered by this License only if the output, given its
170content, constitutes a covered work. This License acknowledges your
171rights of fair use or other equivalent, as provided by copyright law.
172
173 You may make, run and propagate covered works that you do not
174convey, without conditions so long as your license otherwise remains
175in force. You may convey covered works to others for the sole purpose
176of having them make modifications exclusively for you, or provide you
177with facilities for running those works, provided that you comply with
178the terms of this License in conveying all material for which you do
179not control copyright. Those thus making or running the covered works
180for you must do so exclusively on your behalf, under your direction
181and control, on terms that prohibit them from making any copies of
182your copyrighted material outside their relationship with you.
183
184 Conveying under any other circumstances is permitted solely under
185the conditions stated below. Sublicensing is not allowed; section 10
186makes it unnecessary.
187
188 3. Protecting Users' Legal Rights From Anti-Circumvention Law.
189
190 No covered work shall be deemed part of an effective technological
191measure under any applicable law fulfilling obligations under article
19211 of the WIPO copyright treaty adopted on 20 December 1996, or
193similar laws prohibiting or restricting circumvention of such
194measures.
195
196 When you convey a covered work, you waive any legal power to forbid
197circumvention of technological measures to the extent such circumvention
198is effected by exercising rights under this License with respect to
199the covered work, and you disclaim any intention to limit operation or
200modification of the work as a means of enforcing, against the work's
201users, your or third parties' legal rights to forbid circumvention of
202technological measures.
203
204 4. Conveying Verbatim Copies.
205
206 You may convey verbatim copies of the Program's source code as you
207receive it, in any medium, provided that you conspicuously and
208appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate copyright notice;
209keep intact all notices stating that this License and any
210non-permissive terms added in accord with section 7 apply to the code;
211keep intact all notices of the absence of any warranty; and give all
212recipients a copy of this License along with the Program.
213
214 You may charge any price or no price for each copy that you convey,
215and you may offer support or warranty protection for a fee.
216
217 5. Conveying Modified Source Versions.
218
219 You may convey a work based on the Program, or the modifications to
220produce it from the Program, in the form of source code under the
221terms of section 4, provided that you also meet all of these conditions:
222
223 a) The work must carry prominent notices stating that you modified
224 it, and giving a relevant date.
225
226 b) The work must carry prominent notices stating that it is
227 released under this License and any conditions added under section
228 7. This requirement modifies the requirement in section 4 to
229 "keep intact all notices".
230
231 c) You must license the entire work, as a whole, under this
232 License to anyone who comes into possession of a copy. This
233 License will therefore apply, along with any applicable section 7
234 additional terms, to the whole of the work, and all its parts,
235 regardless of how they are packaged. This License gives no
236 permission to license the work in any other way, but it does not
237 invalidate such permission if you have separately received it.
238
239 d) If the work has interactive user interfaces, each must display
240 Appropriate Legal Notices; however, if the Program has interactive
241 interfaces that do not display Appropriate Legal Notices, your
242 work need not make them do so.
243
244 A compilation of a covered work with other separate and independent
245works, which are not by their nature extensions of the covered work,
246and which are not combined with it such as to form a larger program,
247in or on a volume of a storage or distribution medium, is called an
248"aggregate" if the compilation and its resulting copyright are not
249used to limit the access or legal rights of the compilation's users
250beyond what the individual works permit. Inclusion of a covered work
251in an aggregate does not cause this License to apply to the other
252parts of the aggregate.
253
254 6. Conveying Non-Source Forms.
255
256 You may convey a covered work in object code form under the terms
257of sections 4 and 5, provided that you also convey the
258machine-readable Corresponding Source under the terms of this License,
259in one of these ways:
260
261 a) Convey the object code in, or embodied in, a physical product
262 (including a physical distribution medium), accompanied by the
263 Corresponding Source fixed on a durable physical medium
264 customarily used for software interchange.
265
266 b) Convey the object code in, or embodied in, a physical product
267 (including a physical distribution medium), accompanied by a
268 written offer, valid for at least three years and valid for as
269 long as you offer spare parts or customer support for that product
270 model, to give anyone who possesses the object code either (1) a
271 copy of the Corresponding Source for all the software in the
272 product that is covered by this License, on a durable physical
273 medium customarily used for software interchange, for a price no
274 more than your reasonable cost of physically performing this
275 conveying of source, or (2) access to copy the
276 Corresponding Source from a network server at no charge.
277
278 c) Convey individual copies of the object code with a copy of the
279 written offer to provide the Corresponding Source. This
280 alternative is allowed only occasionally and noncommercially, and
281 only if you received the object code with such an offer, in accord
282 with subsection 6b.
283
284 d) Convey the object code by offering access from a designated
285 place (gratis or for a charge), and offer equivalent access to the
286 Corresponding Source in the same way through the same place at no
287 further charge. You need not require recipients to copy the
288 Corresponding Source along with the object code. If the place to
289 copy the object code is a network server, the Corresponding Source
290 may be on a different server (operated by you or a third party)
291 that supports equivalent copying facilities, provided you maintain
292 clear directions next to the object code saying where to find the
293 Corresponding Source. Regardless of what server hosts the
294 Corresponding Source, you remain obligated to ensure that it is
295 available for as long as needed to satisfy these requirements.
296
297 e) Convey the object code using peer-to-peer transmission, provided
298 you inform other peers where the object code and Corresponding
299 Source of the work are being offered to the general public at no
300 charge under subsection 6d.
301
302 A separable portion of the object code, whose source code is excluded
303from the Corresponding Source as a System Library, need not be
304included in conveying the object code work.
305
306 A "User Product" is either (1) a "consumer product", which means any
307tangible personal property which is normally used for personal, family,
308or household purposes, or (2) anything designed or sold for incorporation
309into a dwelling. In determining whether a product is a consumer product,
310doubtful cases shall be resolved in favor of coverage. For a particular
311product received by a particular user, "normally used" refers to a
312typical or common use of that class of product, regardless of the status
313of the particular user or of the way in which the particular user
314actually uses, or expects or is expected to use, the product. A product
315is a consumer product regardless of whether the product has substantial
316commercial, industrial or non-consumer uses, unless such uses represent
317the only significant mode of use of the product.
318
319 "Installation Information" for a User Product means any methods,
320procedures, authorization keys, or other information required to install
321and execute modified versions of a covered work in that User Product from
322a modified version of its Corresponding Source. The information must
323suffice to ensure that the continued functioning of the modified object
324code is in no case prevented or interfered with solely because
325modification has been made.
326
327 If you convey an object code work under this section in, or with, or
328specifically for use in, a User Product, and the conveying occurs as
329part of a transaction in which the right of possession and use of the
330User Product is transferred to the recipient in perpetuity or for a
331fixed term (regardless of how the transaction is characterized), the
332Corresponding Source conveyed under this section must be accompanied
333by the Installation Information. But this requirement does not apply
334if neither you nor any third party retains the ability to install
335modified object code on the User Product (for example, the work has
336been installed in ROM).
337
338 The requirement to provide Installation Information does not include a
339requirement to continue to provide support service, warranty, or updates
340for a work that has been modified or installed by the recipient, or for
341the User Product in which it has been modified or installed. Access to a
342network may be denied when the modification itself materially and
343adversely affects the operation of the network or violates the rules and
344protocols for communication across the network.
345
346 Corresponding Source conveyed, and Installation Information provided,
347in accord with this section must be in a format that is publicly
348documented (and with an implementation available to the public in
349source code form), and must require no special password or key for
350unpacking, reading or copying.
351
352 7. Additional Terms.
353
354 "Additional permissions" are terms that supplement the terms of this
355License by making exceptions from one or more of its conditions.
356Additional permissions that are applicable to the entire Program shall
357be treated as though they were included in this License, to the extent
358that they are valid under applicable law. If additional permissions
359apply only to part of the Program, that part may be used separately
360under those permissions, but the entire Program remains governed by
361this License without regard to the additional permissions.
362
363 When you convey a copy of a covered work, you may at your option
364remove any additional permissions from that copy, or from any part of
365it. (Additional permissions may be written to require their own
366removal in certain cases when you modify the work.) You may place
367additional permissions on material, added by you to a covered work,
368for which you have or can give appropriate copyright permission.
369
370 Notwithstanding any other provision of this License, for material you
371add to a covered work, you may (if authorized by the copyright holders of
372that material) supplement the terms of this License with terms:
373
374 a) Disclaiming warranty or limiting liability differently from the
375 terms of sections 15 and 16 of this License; or
376
377 b) Requiring preservation of specified reasonable legal notices or
378 author attributions in that material or in the Appropriate Legal
379 Notices displayed by works containing it; or
380
381 c) Prohibiting misrepresentation of the origin of that material, or
382 requiring that modified versions of such material be marked in
383 reasonable ways as different from the original version; or
384
385 d) Limiting the use for publicity purposes of names of licensors or
386 authors of the material; or
387
388 e) Declining to grant rights under trademark law for use of some
389 trade names, trademarks, or service marks; or
390
391 f) Requiring indemnification of licensors and authors of that
392 material by anyone who conveys the material (or modified versions of
393 it) with contractual assumptions of liability to the recipient, for
394 any liability that these contractual assumptions directly impose on
395 those licensors and authors.
396
397 All other non-permissive additional terms are considered "further
398restrictions" within the meaning of section 10. If the Program as you
399received it, or any part of it, contains a notice stating that it is
400governed by this License along with a term that is a further
401restriction, you may remove that term. If a license document contains
402a further restriction but permits relicensing or conveying under this
403License, you may add to a covered work material governed by the terms
404of that license document, provided that the further restriction does
405not survive such relicensing or conveying.
406
407 If you add terms to a covered work in accord with this section, you
408must place, in the relevant source files, a statement of the
409additional terms that apply to those files, or a notice indicating
410where to find the applicable terms.
411
412 Additional terms, permissive or non-permissive, may be stated in the
413form of a separately written license, or stated as exceptions;
414the above requirements apply either way.
415
416 8. Termination.
417
418 You may not propagate or modify a covered work except as expressly
419provided under this License. Any attempt otherwise to propagate or
420modify it is void, and will automatically terminate your rights under
421this License (including any patent licenses granted under the third
422paragraph of section 11).
423
424 However, if you cease all violation of this License, then your
425license from a particular copyright holder is reinstated (a)
426provisionally, unless and until the copyright holder explicitly and
427finally terminates your license, and (b) permanently, if the copyright
428holder fails to notify you of the violation by some reasonable means
429prior to 60 days after the cessation.
430
431 Moreover, your license from a particular copyright holder is
432reinstated permanently if the copyright holder notifies you of the
433violation by some reasonable means, this is the first time you have
434received notice of violation of this License (for any work) from that
435copyright holder, and you cure the violation prior to 30 days after
436your receipt of the notice.
437
438 Termination of your rights under this section does not terminate the
439licenses of parties who have received copies or rights from you under
440this License. If your rights have been terminated and not permanently
441reinstated, you do not qualify to receive new licenses for the same
442material under section 10.
443
444 9. Acceptance Not Required for Having Copies.
445
446 You are not required to accept this License in order to receive or
447run a copy of the Program. Ancillary propagation of a covered work
448occurring solely as a consequence of using peer-to-peer transmission
449to receive a copy likewise does not require acceptance. However,
450nothing other than this License grants you permission to propagate or
451modify any covered work. These actions infringe copyright if you do
452not accept this License. Therefore, by modifying or propagating a
453covered work, you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so.
454
455 10. Automatic Licensing of Downstream Recipients.
456
457 Each time you convey a covered work, the recipient automatically
458receives a license from the original licensors, to run, modify and
459propagate that work, subject to this License. You are not responsible
460for enforcing compliance by third parties with this License.
461
462 An "entity transaction" is a transaction transferring control of an
463organization, or substantially all assets of one, or subdividing an
464organization, or merging organizations. If propagation of a covered
465work results from an entity transaction, each party to that
466transaction who receives a copy of the work also receives whatever
467licenses to the work the party's predecessor in interest had or could
468give under the previous paragraph, plus a right to possession of the
469Corresponding Source of the work from the predecessor in interest, if
470the predecessor has it or can get it with reasonable efforts.
471
472 You may not impose any further restrictions on the exercise of the
473rights granted or affirmed under this License. For example, you may
474not impose a license fee, royalty, or other charge for exercise of
475rights granted under this License, and you may not initiate litigation
476(including a cross-claim or counterclaim in a lawsuit) alleging that
477any patent claim is infringed by making, using, selling, offering for
478sale, or importing the Program or any portion of it.
479
480 11. Patents.
481
482 A "contributor" is a copyright holder who authorizes use under this
483License of the Program or a work on which the Program is based. The
484work thus licensed is called the contributor's "contributor version".
485
486 A contributor's "essential patent claims" are all patent claims
487owned or controlled by the contributor, whether already acquired or
488hereafter acquired, that would be infringed by some manner, permitted
489by this License, of making, using, or selling its contributor version,
490but do not include claims that would be infringed only as a
491consequence of further modification of the contributor version. For
492purposes of this definition, "control" includes the right to grant
493patent sublicenses in a manner consistent with the requirements of
c627d613
AT
494this License.
495
4fd842f9
WD
496 Each contributor grants you a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free
497patent license under the contributor's essential patent claims, to
498make, use, sell, offer for sale, import and otherwise run, modify and
499propagate the contents of its contributor version.
500
501 In the following three paragraphs, a "patent license" is any express
502agreement or commitment, however denominated, not to enforce a patent
503(such as an express permission to practice a patent or covenant not to
504sue for patent infringement). To "grant" such a patent license to a
505party means to make such an agreement or commitment not to enforce a
506patent against the party.
507
508 If you convey a covered work, knowingly relying on a patent license,
509and the Corresponding Source of the work is not available for anyone
510to copy, free of charge and under the terms of this License, through a
511publicly available network server or other readily accessible means,
512then you must either (1) cause the Corresponding Source to be so
513available, or (2) arrange to deprive yourself of the benefit of the
514patent license for this particular work, or (3) arrange, in a manner
515consistent with the requirements of this License, to extend the patent
516license to downstream recipients. "Knowingly relying" means you have
517actual knowledge that, but for the patent license, your conveying the
518covered work in a country, or your recipient's use of the covered work
519in a country, would infringe one or more identifiable patents in that
520country that you have reason to believe are valid.
521
522 If, pursuant to or in connection with a single transaction or
523arrangement, you convey, or propagate by procuring conveyance of, a
524covered work, and grant a patent license to some of the parties
525receiving the covered work authorizing them to use, propagate, modify
526or convey a specific copy of the covered work, then the patent license
527you grant is automatically extended to all recipients of the covered
528work and works based on it.
529
530 A patent license is "discriminatory" if it does not include within
531the scope of its coverage, prohibits the exercise of, or is
532conditioned on the non-exercise of one or more of the rights that are
533specifically granted under this License. You may not convey a covered
534work if you are a party to an arrangement with a third party that is
535in the business of distributing software, under which you make payment
536to the third party based on the extent of your activity of conveying
537the work, and under which the third party grants, to any of the
538parties who would receive the covered work from you, a discriminatory
539patent license (a) in connection with copies of the covered work
540conveyed by you (or copies made from those copies), or (b) primarily
541for and in connection with specific products or compilations that
542contain the covered work, unless you entered into that arrangement,
543or that patent license was granted, prior to 28 March 2007.
544
545 Nothing in this License shall be construed as excluding or limiting
546any implied license or other defenses to infringement that may
547otherwise be available to you under applicable patent law.
548
549 12. No Surrender of Others' Freedom.
550
551 If conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or
c627d613 552otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not
4fd842f9
WD
553excuse you from the conditions of this License. If you cannot convey a
554covered work so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this
555License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you may
556not convey it at all. For example, if you agree to terms that obligate you
557to collect a royalty for further conveying from those to whom you convey
558the Program, the only way you could satisfy both those terms and this
559License would be to refrain entirely from conveying the Program.
560
561 13. Use with the GNU Affero General Public License.
562
563 Notwithstanding any other provision of this License, you have
564permission to link or combine any covered work with a work licensed
565under version 3 of the GNU Affero General Public License into a single
566combined work, and to convey the resulting work. The terms of this
567License will continue to apply to the part which is the covered work,
568but the special requirements of the GNU Affero General Public License,
569section 13, concerning interaction through a network will apply to the
570combination as such.
571
572 14. Revised Versions of this License.
573
574 The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions of
575the GNU General Public License from time to time. Such new versions will
c627d613
AT
576be similar in spirit to the present version, but may differ in detail to
577address new problems or concerns.
578
4fd842f9
WD
579 Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the
580Program specifies that a certain numbered version of the GNU General
581Public License "or any later version" applies to it, you have the
582option of following the terms and conditions either of that numbered
583version or of any later version published by the Free Software
584Foundation. If the Program does not specify a version number of the
585GNU General Public License, you may choose any version ever published
586by the Free Software Foundation.
587
588 If the Program specifies that a proxy can decide which future
589versions of the GNU General Public License can be used, that proxy's
590public statement of acceptance of a version permanently authorizes you
591to choose that version for the Program.
592
593 Later license versions may give you additional or different
594permissions. However, no additional obligations are imposed on any
595author or copyright holder as a result of your choosing to follow a
596later version.
597
598 15. Disclaimer of Warranty.
599
600 THERE IS NO WARRANTY FOR THE PROGRAM, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY
601APPLICABLE LAW. EXCEPT WHEN OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT
602HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER PARTIES PROVIDE THE PROGRAM "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY
603OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO,
604THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR
605PURPOSE. THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE PROGRAM
606IS WITH YOU. SHOULD THE PROGRAM PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE COST OF
607ALL NECESSARY SERVICING, REPAIR OR CORRECTION.
608
609 16. Limitation of Liability.
610
611 IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN WRITING
612WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MODIFIES AND/OR CONVEYS
613THE PROGRAM AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES, INCLUDING ANY
614GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THE
615USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF
616DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY YOU OR THIRD
617PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF THE PROGRAM TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER PROGRAMS),
618EVEN IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF
619SUCH DAMAGES.
620
621 17. Interpretation of Sections 15 and 16.
622
623 If the disclaimer of warranty and limitation of liability provided
624above cannot be given local legal effect according to their terms,
625reviewing courts shall apply local law that most closely approximates
626an absolute waiver of all civil liability in connection with the
627Program, unless a warranty or assumption of liability accompanies a
628copy of the Program in return for a fee.

632 How to Apply These Terms to Your New Programs
c627d613
AT
633
634 If you develop a new program, and you want it to be of the greatest
635possible use to the public, the best way to achieve this is to make it
636free software which everyone can redistribute and change under these terms.
637
638 To do so, attach the following notices to the program. It is safest
639to attach them to the start of each source file to most effectively
4fd842f9 640state the exclusion of warranty; and each file should have at least
c627d613
AT
641the "copyright" line and a pointer to where the full notice is found.
642
643 <one line to give the program's name and a brief idea of what it does.>

c627d613 647 it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by

652 but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of

654 GNU General Public License for more details.

656 You should have received a copy of the GNU General Public License
dde46951 657 along with this program. If not, see <https://www.gnu.org/licenses/>.

661 If the program does terminal interaction, make it output a short
662notice like this when it starts in an interactive mode:
c627d613 663
4fd842f9
WD
664 <program> Copyright (C) <year> <name of author>
665 This program comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY; for details type `show w'.
c627d613
AT
666 This is free software, and you are welcome to redistribute it
667 under certain conditions; type `show c' for details.
668
669The hypothetical commands `show w' and `show c' should show the appropriate
4fd842f9
WD
670parts of the General Public License. Of course, your program's commands
671might be different; for a GUI interface, you would use an "about box".
672
673 You should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer) or school,
674if any, to sign a "copyright disclaimer" for the program, if necessary.

678 The GNU General Public License does not permit incorporating your program
679into proprietary programs. If your program is a subroutine library, you
680may consider it more useful to permit linking proprietary applications with
681the library. If this is what you want to do, use the GNU Lesser General
682Public License instead of this License. But first, please read
