How to Apply These Terms to Your New Programs

If you develop a new program, and you want it to be of the greatest

possible use to the public, the best way to achieve this is to make it free
software which everyone can redistribute and change under these terms.

To do so, attach the following notices to the program. It is safest to attach

them to the start of each source fi le to most effectively convey the exclusion of
warranty; and each fi le should have at least the "copyright" line and a pointer
to where the full notice is found.

<One line to give the program's name and a brief idea of what it

does.>

This program is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify it

under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by
the Free Software Foundation; either version 2 of the License, or (at
your option) any later version.

This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful, but

WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of
MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.
See the GNU General Public License for more details.

You should have received a copy of the GNU General Public

License along with this program; if not, write to the Free Software
Foundation,Inc., 59 Temple Place, Suite 330, Boston, MA
02111-1307 USA

Also add information on how to contact you by electronic and paper mail.

If the program is interactive, make it output a short notice like this when it
starts in an interactive mode:

Gnomovision comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY; for
details type `show w'. This is free software, and you are welcome to
redistribute it under certain conditions; type `show c' for details.

The hypothetical commands `show w' and `show c' should show the
appropriate parts of the General Public License. Of course, the commands
you use may be called something other than `show w' and `show c'; they
could even be mouse-clicks or menu items – whatever suits your program.

You should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer) or your
school, if any, to sign a "copyright disclaimer" for the program; if necessary.
Here is a sample; alter the names:

Yoyodyne, Inc., hereby disclaims all copyright interest in the

program `Gnomovision' (which makes passes at compilers) written
by James Hacker.

This General Public License does not permit incorporating your program

into proprietary programs. If your program is a subroutine library, you may
consider it more useful to permit linking proprietary applications with the
library. If this is what you want to do, use the GNU Library General Public
License instead of this License.

GNU LESSER GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE Version 2.1, February
1999

Copyright ©1991, 1999 Free Software Foundation, Inc. 59 Temple Place,
Suite 330, Boston, MA 02111-1307 USA Everyone is permitted to copy and
distribute verbatim copies of this license document, but changing it is not
allowed.

[This is the fi rst released version of the Lesser GPL. It also counts as the
successor of the GNU Library Public License, version 2, hence the version
number 2.1.]

Preamble

The licenses for most software are designed to take away your freedom

to share and change it. By contrast, the GNU General Public Licenses are
intended to guarantee your freedom to share and change free software – to
make sure the software is free for all its users.

This license, the Lesser General Public License, applies to some specially

designated software packages – typically libraries – of the Free Software
Foundation and other authors who decide to use it. You can use it too, but
we suggest you fi rst think carefully about whether this license or the ordinary
General Public License is the better strategy to use in any particular case,
based on the explanations below.

When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom of use, 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 and use pieces of it in new free programs; and that
you are informed that you can do these things.

To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that forbid distributors

to deny you these rights or to ask you to surrender these rights. These
restrictions translate to certain responsibilities for you if you distribute copies
of the library or if you modify it.

For example, if you distribute copies of the library, whether gratis or for a

fee, you must give the recipients all the rights that we gave you. You must
make sure that they, too, receive or can get the source code. If you link other
code with the library, you must provide complete object fi les to the recipients,
so that they can relink them with the library after making changes to the library
and recompiling it. And you must show them these terms so they know their
rights.

We protect your rights with a two-step method: (1) we copyright the library,

and (2) we offer you this license, which gives you legal permission to copy,
distribute and/ or modify the library.

To protect each distributor, we want to make it very clear that there is no

warranty for the free library. Also, if the library is modifi ed by someone else
and passed on, the recipients should know that what they have is not the
original version, so that the original author's reputation will not be affected by
problems that might be introduced by others.

Finally, software patents pose a constant threat to the existence of any free

program. We wish to make sure that a company cannot effectively restrict the
users of a free program by obtaining a restrictive license from a patent holder.
Therefore, we insist that any patent license obtained for a version of the
library must be consistent with the full freedom of use specifi ed in this license.

Most GNU software, including some libraries, is covered by the ordinary

GNU General Public License. This license, the GNU Lesser General Public
License, applies to certain designated libraries, and is quite different from the
ordinary General Public License. We use this license for certain libraries in
order to permit linking those libraries into non-free programs.

When a program is linked with a library, whether statically or using a

shared library, the combination of the two is legally speaking a combined
work, a derivative of the original library. The ordinary General Public License
therefore permits such linking only if the entire combination fi ts its criteria
of freedom. The Lesser General Public License permits more lax criteria for
linking other code with the library.

We call this license the "Lesser" General Public License because it does

Less to protect the user's freedom than the ordinary General Public License.
It also provides other free software developers Less of an advantage over
competing non-free programs. These disadvantages are the reason we use
the ordinary General Public License for many libraries. However, the Lesser
license provides advantages in certain special circumstances.

For example, on rare occasions, there may be a special need to encourage

the widest possible use of a certain library, so that it becomes a de-facto
standard. To achieve this, non-free programs must be allowed to use the
library. A more frequent case is that a free library does the same job as widely
used non-free libraries. In this case, there is little to gain by limiting the free
library to free software only, so we use the Lesser General Public License.

In other cases, permission to use a particular library in non-free programs

enables a greater number of people to use a large body of free software. For
example, permission to use the GNU C Library in non-free programs enables
many more people to use the whole GNU operating system, as well as its
variant, the GNU/Linux operating system.

Although the Lesser General Public License is Less protective of the

users’ freedom, it does ensure that the user of a program that is linked with
the Library has the freedom and the wherewithal to run that program using a
modifi ed version of the Library.
