7    
8     Version 3, 19 November 2007
9    
10     Copyright (C) 2007 Free Software Foundation, Inc.
11     <https://fsf.org/>
12    
13     Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies of this
14     license document, but changing it is not allowed.
15    
16     ## Preamble
17    
18     The GNU Affero General Public License is a free, copyleft license for
19     software and other kinds of works, specifically designed to ensure
20     cooperation with the community in the case of network server software.
21    
22     The licenses for most software and other practical works are designed
23     to take away your freedom to share and change the works. By contrast,
24     our General Public Licenses are intended to guarantee your freedom to
25     share and change all versions of a program--to make sure it remains
26     free software for all its users.
27    
28     When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not
29     price. Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that you
30     have the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge for
31     them if you wish), that you receive source code or can get it if you
32     want it, that you can change the software or use pieces of it in new
33     free programs, and that you know you can do these things.
34    
35     Developers that use our General Public Licenses protect your rights
36     with two steps: (1) assert copyright on the software, and (2) offer
37     you this License which gives you legal permission to copy, distribute
38     and/or modify the software.
39    
40     A secondary benefit of defending all users' freedom is that
41     improvements made in alternate versions of the program, if they
42     receive widespread use, become available for other developers to
43     incorporate. Many developers of free software are heartened and
44     encouraged by the resulting cooperation. However, in the case of
45     software used on network servers, this result may fail to come about.
46     The GNU General Public License permits making a modified version and
47     letting the public access it on a server without ever releasing its
48     source code to the public.
49    
50     The GNU Affero General Public License is designed specifically to
51     ensure that, in such cases, the modified source code becomes available
52     to the community. It requires the operator of a network server to
53     provide the source code of the modified version running there to the
54     users of that server. Therefore, public use of a modified version, on
55     a publicly accessible server, gives the public access to the source
56     code of the modified version.
57    
58     An older license, called the Affero General Public License and
59     published by Affero, was designed to accomplish similar goals. This is
60     a different license, not a version of the Affero GPL, but Affero has
61     released a new version of the Affero GPL which permits relicensing
62     under this license.
63    
64     The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and
65     modification follow.
66    
67     ## TERMS AND CONDITIONS
68    
69     ### 0. Definitions.
70    
71     "This License" refers to version 3 of the GNU Affero General Public
72     License.
73    
74     "Copyright" also means copyright-like laws that apply to other kinds
75     of works, such as semiconductor masks.
76    
77     "The Program" refers to any copyrightable work licensed under this
78     License. Each licensee is addressed as "you". "Licensees" and
79     "recipients" may be individuals or organizations.
80    
81     To "modify" a work means to copy from or adapt all or part of the work
82     in a fashion requiring copyright permission, other than the making of
83     an exact copy. The resulting work is called a "modified version" of
84     the earlier work or a work "based on" the earlier work.
85    
86     A "covered work" means either the unmodified Program or a work based
87     on the Program.
88    
89     To "propagate" a work means to do anything with it that, without
90     permission, would make you directly or secondarily liable for
91     infringement under applicable copyright law, except executing it on a
92     computer or modifying a private copy. Propagation includes copying,
93     distribution (with or without modification), making available to the
94     public, and in some countries other activities as well.
95    
96     To "convey" a work means any kind of propagation that enables other
97     parties to make or receive copies. Mere interaction with a user
98     through a computer network, with no transfer of a copy, is not
99     conveying.
100    
101     An interactive user interface displays "Appropriate Legal Notices" to
102     the extent that it includes a convenient and prominently visible
103     feature that (1) displays an appropriate copyright notice, and (2)
104     tells the user that there is no warranty for the work (except to the
105     extent that warranties are provided), that licensees may convey the
106     work under this License, and how to view a copy of this License. If
107     the interface presents a list of user commands or options, such as a
108     menu, a prominent item in the list meets this criterion.
109    
110     ### 1. Source Code.
111    
112     The "source code" for a work means the preferred form of the work for
113     making modifications to it. "Object code" means any non-source form of
114     a work.
115    
116     A "Standard Interface" means an interface that either is an official
117     standard defined by a recognized standards body, or, in the case of
118     interfaces specified for a particular programming language, one that
119     is widely used among developers working in that language.
120    
121     The "System Libraries" of an executable work include anything, other
122     than the work as a whole, that (a) is included in the normal form of
123     packaging a Major Component, but which is not part of that Major
124     Component, and (b) serves only to enable use of the work with that
125     Major Component, or to implement a Standard Interface for which an
126     implementation is available to the public in source code form. A
127     "Major Component", in this context, means a major essential component
128     (kernel, window system, and so on) of the specific operating system
129     (if any) on which the executable work runs, or a compiler used to
130     produce the work, or an object code interpreter used to run it.
131    
132     The "Corresponding Source" for a work in object code form means all
133     the source code needed to generate, install, and (for an executable
134     work) run the object code and to modify the work, including scripts to
135     control those activities. However, it does not include the work's
136     System Libraries, or general-purpose tools or generally available free
137     programs which are used unmodified in performing those activities but
138     which are not part of the work. For example, Corresponding Source
139     includes interface definition files associated with source files for
140     the work, and the source code for shared libraries and dynamically
141     linked subprograms that the work is specifically designed to require,
142     such as by intimate data communication or control flow between those
143     subprograms and other parts of the work.
144    
145     The Corresponding Source need not include anything that users can
146     regenerate automatically from other parts of the Corresponding Source.
147    
148     The Corresponding Source for a work in source code form is that same
149     work.
150    
151     ### 2. Basic Permissions.
152    
153     All rights granted under this License are granted for the term of
154     copyright on the Program, and are irrevocable provided the stated
155     conditions are met. This License explicitly affirms your unlimited
156     permission to run the unmodified Program. The output from running a
157     covered work is covered by this License only if the output, given its
158     content, constitutes a covered work. This License acknowledges your
159     rights of fair use or other equivalent, as provided by copyright law.
160    
161     You may make, run and propagate covered works that you do not convey,
162     without conditions so long as your license otherwise remains in force.
163     You may convey covered works to others for the sole purpose of having
164     them make modifications exclusively for you, or provide you with
165     facilities for running those works, provided that you comply with the
166     terms of this License in conveying all material for which you do not
167     control copyright. Those thus making or running the covered works for
168     you must do so exclusively on your behalf, under your direction and
169     control, on terms that prohibit them from making any copies of your
170     copyrighted material outside their relationship with you.
171    
172     Conveying under any other circumstances is permitted solely under the
173     conditions stated below. Sublicensing is not allowed; section 10 makes
174     it unnecessary.
175    
176     ### 3. Protecting Users' Legal Rights From Anti-Circumvention Law.
177    
178     No covered work shall be deemed part of an effective technological
179     measure under any applicable law fulfilling obligations under article
180     11 of the WIPO copyright treaty adopted on 20 December 1996, or
181     similar laws prohibiting or restricting circumvention of such
182     measures.
183    
184     When you convey a covered work, you waive any legal power to forbid
185     circumvention of technological measures to the extent such
186     circumvention is effected by exercising rights under this License with
187     respect to the covered work, and you disclaim any intention to limit
188     operation or modification of the work as a means of enforcing, against
189     the work's users, your or third parties' legal rights to forbid
190     circumvention of technological measures.
191    
192     ### 4. Conveying Verbatim Copies.
193    
194     You may convey verbatim copies of the Program's source code as you
195     receive it, in any medium, provided that you conspicuously and
196     appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate copyright notice;
197     keep intact all notices stating that this License and any
198     non-permissive terms added in accord with section 7 apply to the code;
199     keep intact all notices of the absence of any warranty; and give all
200     recipients a copy of this License along with the Program.
201    
202     You may charge any price or no price for each copy that you convey,
203     and you may offer support or warranty protection for a fee.
204    
205     ### 5. Conveying Modified Source Versions.
206    
207     You may convey a work based on the Program, or the modifications to
208     produce it from the Program, in the form of source code under the
209     terms of section 4, provided that you also meet all of these
210     conditions:
211    
212     - a) The work must carry prominent notices stating that you modified
213     it, and giving a relevant date.
214     - b) The work must carry prominent notices stating that it is
215     released under this License and any conditions added under
216     section 7. This requirement modifies the requirement in section 4
217     to "keep intact all notices".
218     - c) You must license the entire work, as a whole, under this
219     License to anyone who comes into possession of a copy. This
220     License will therefore apply, along with any applicable section 7
221     additional terms, to the whole of the work, and all its parts,
222     regardless of how they are packaged. This License gives no
223     permission to license the work in any other way, but it does not
224     invalidate such permission if you have separately received it.
225     - d) If the work has interactive user interfaces, each must display
226     Appropriate Legal Notices; however, if the Program has interactive
227     interfaces that do not display Appropriate Legal Notices, your
228     work need not make them do so.
229    
230     A compilation of a covered work with other separate and independent
231     works, which are not by their nature extensions of the covered work,
232     and which are not combined with it such as to form a larger program,
233     in or on a volume of a storage or distribution medium, is called an
234     "aggregate" if the compilation and its resulting copyright are not
235     used to limit the access or legal rights of the compilation's users
236     beyond what the individual works permit. Inclusion of a covered work
237     in an aggregate does not cause this License to apply to the other
238     parts of the aggregate.
239    
240     ### 6. Conveying Non-Source Forms.
241    
242     You may convey a covered work in object code form under the terms of
243     sections 4 and 5, provided that you also convey the machine-readable
244     Corresponding Source under the terms of this License, in one of these
245     ways:
246    
247     - a) Convey the object code in, or embodied in, a physical product
248     (including a physical distribution medium), accompanied by the
249     Corresponding Source fixed on a durable physical medium
250     customarily used for software interchange.
251     - b) Convey the object code in, or embodied in, a physical product
252     (including a physical distribution medium), accompanied by a
253     written offer, valid for at least three years and valid for as
254     long as you offer spare parts or customer support for that product
255     model, to give anyone who possesses the object code either (1) a
256     copy of the Corresponding Source for all the software in the
257     product that is covered by this License, on a durable physical
258     medium customarily used for software interchange, for a price no
259     more than your reasonable cost of physically performing this
260     conveying of source, or (2) access to copy the Corresponding
261     Source from a network server at no charge.
262     - c) Convey individual copies of the object code with a copy of the
263     written offer to provide the Corresponding Source. This
264     alternative is allowed only occasionally and noncommercially, and
265     only if you received the object code with such an offer, in accord
266     with subsection 6b.
267     - d) Convey the object code by offering access from a designated
268     place (gratis or for a charge), and offer equivalent access to the
269     Corresponding Source in the same way through the same place at no
270     further charge. You need not require recipients to copy the
271     Corresponding Source along with the object code. If the place to
272     copy the object code is a network server, the Corresponding Source
273     may be on a different server (operated by you or a third party)
274     that supports equivalent copying facilities, provided you maintain
275     clear directions next to the object code saying where to find the
276     Corresponding Source. Regardless of what server hosts the
277     Corresponding Source, you remain obligated to ensure that it is
278     available for as long as needed to satisfy these requirements.
279     - e) Convey the object code using peer-to-peer transmission,
280     provided you inform other peers where the object code and
281     Corresponding Source of the work are being offered to the general
282     public at no charge under subsection 6d.
283    
284     A separable portion of the object code, whose source code is excluded
285     from the Corresponding Source as a System Library, need not be
286     included in conveying the object code work.
287    
288     A "User Product" is either (1) a "consumer product", which means any
289     tangible personal property which is normally used for personal,
290     family, or household purposes, or (2) anything designed or sold for
291     incorporation into a dwelling. In determining whether a product is a
292     consumer product, doubtful cases shall be resolved in favor of
293     coverage. For a particular product received by a particular user,
294     "normally used" refers to a typical or common use of that class of
295     product, regardless of the status of the particular user or of the way
296     in which the particular user actually uses, or expects or is expected
297     to use, the product. A product is a consumer product regardless of
298     whether the product has substantial commercial, industrial or
299     non-consumer uses, unless such uses represent the only significant
300     mode of use of the product.
301    
302     "Installation Information" for a User Product means any methods,
303     procedures, authorization keys, or other information required to
304     install and execute modified versions of a covered work in that User
305     Product from a modified version of its Corresponding Source. The
306     information must suffice to ensure that the continued functioning of
307     the modified object code is in no case prevented or interfered with
308     solely because modification has been made.
309    
310     If you convey an object code work under this section in, or with, or
311     specifically for use in, a User Product, and the conveying occurs as
312     part of a transaction in which the right of possession and use of the
313     User Product is transferred to the recipient in perpetuity or for a
314     fixed term (regardless of how the transaction is characterized), the
315     Corresponding Source conveyed under this section must be accompanied
316     by the Installation Information. But this requirement does not apply
317     if neither you nor any third party retains the ability to install
318     modified object code on the User Product (for example, the work has
319     been installed in ROM).
320    
321     The requirement to provide Installation Information does not include a
322     requirement to continue to provide support service, warranty, or
323     updates for a work that has been modified or installed by the
324     recipient, or for the User Product in which it has been modified or
325     installed. Access to a network may be denied when the modification
326     itself materially and adversely affects the operation of the network
327     or violates the rules and protocols for communication across the
328     network.
329    
330     Corresponding Source conveyed, and Installation Information provided,
331     in accord with this section must be in a format that is publicly
332     documented (and with an implementation available to the public in
333     source code form), and must require no special password or key for
334     unpacking, reading or copying.
335    
336     ### 7. Additional Terms.
337    
338     "Additional permissions" are terms that supplement the terms of this
339     License by making exceptions from one or more of its conditions.
340     Additional permissions that are applicable to the entire Program shall
341     be treated as though they were included in this License, to the extent
342     that they are valid under applicable law. If additional permissions
343     apply only to part of the Program, that part may be used separately
344     under those permissions, but the entire Program remains governed by
345     this License without regard to the additional permissions.
346    
347     When you convey a copy of a covered work, you may at your option
348     remove any additional permissions from that copy, or from any part of
349     it. (Additional permissions may be written to require their own
350     removal in certain cases when you modify the work.) You may place
351     additional permissions on material, added by you to a covered work,
352     for which you have or can give appropriate copyright permission.
353    
354     Notwithstanding any other provision of this License, for material you
355     add to a covered work, you may (if authorized by the copyright holders
356     of that material) supplement the terms of this License with terms:
357    
358     - a) Disclaiming warranty or limiting liability differently from the
359     terms of sections 15 and 16 of this License; or
360     - b) Requiring preservation of specified reasonable legal notices or
361     author attributions in that material or in the Appropriate Legal
362     Notices displayed by works containing it; or
363     - c) Prohibiting misrepresentation of the origin of that material,
364     or requiring that modified versions of such material be marked in
365     reasonable ways as different from the original version; or
366     - d) Limiting the use for publicity purposes of names of licensors
367     or authors of the material; or
368     - e) Declining to grant rights under trademark law for use of some
369     trade names, trademarks, or service marks; or
370     - f) Requiring indemnification of licensors and authors of that
371     material by anyone who conveys the material (or modified versions
372     of it) with contractual assumptions of liability to the recipient,
373     for any liability that these contractual assumptions directly
374     impose on those licensors and authors.
375    
376     All other non-permissive additional terms are considered "further
377     restrictions" within the meaning of section 10. If the Program as you
378     received it, or any part of it, contains a notice stating that it is
379     governed by this License along with a term that is a further
380     restriction, you may remove that term. If a license document contains
381     a further restriction but permits relicensing or conveying under this
382     License, you may add to a covered work material governed by the terms
383     of that license document, provided that the further restriction does
384     not survive such relicensing or conveying.
385    
386     If you add terms to a covered work in accord with this section, you
387     must place, in the relevant source files, a statement of the
388     additional terms that apply to those files, or a notice indicating
389     where to find the applicable terms.
390    
391     Additional terms, permissive or non-permissive, may be stated in the
392     form of a separately written license, or stated as exceptions; the
393     above requirements apply either way.
394    
395     ### 8. Termination.
396    
397     You may not propagate or modify a covered work except as expressly
398     provided under this License. Any attempt otherwise to propagate or
399     modify it is void, and will automatically terminate your rights under
400     this License (including any patent licenses granted under the third
401     paragraph of section 11).
402    
403     However, if you cease all violation of this License, then your license
404     from a particular copyright holder is reinstated (a) provisionally,
405     unless and until the copyright holder explicitly and finally
406     terminates your license, and (b) permanently, if the copyright holder
407     fails to notify you of the violation by some reasonable means prior to
408     60 days after the cessation.
409    
410     Moreover, your license from a particular copyright holder is
411     reinstated permanently if the copyright holder notifies you of the
412     violation by some reasonable means, this is the first time you have
413     received notice of violation of this License (for any work) from that
414     copyright holder, and you cure the violation prior to 30 days after
415     your receipt of the notice.
416    
417     Termination of your rights under this section does not terminate the
418     licenses of parties who have received copies or rights from you under
419     this License. If your rights have been terminated and not permanently
420     reinstated, you do not qualify to receive new licenses for the same
421     material under section 10.
422    
423     ### 9. Acceptance Not Required for Having Copies.
424    
425     You are not required to accept this License in order to receive or run
426     a copy of the Program. Ancillary propagation of a covered work
427     occurring solely as a consequence of using peer-to-peer transmission
428     to receive a copy likewise does not require acceptance. However,
429     nothing other than this License grants you permission to propagate or
430     modify any covered work. These actions infringe copyright if you do
431     not accept this License. Therefore, by modifying or propagating a
432     covered work, you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so.
433    
434     ### 10. Automatic Licensing of Downstream Recipients.
435    
436     Each time you convey a covered work, the recipient automatically
437     receives a license from the original licensors, to run, modify and
438     propagate that work, subject to this License. You are not responsible
439     for enforcing compliance by third parties with this License.
440    
441     An "entity transaction" is a transaction transferring control of an
442     organization, or substantially all assets of one, or subdividing an
443     organization, or merging organizations. If propagation of a covered
444     work results from an entity transaction, each party to that
445     transaction who receives a copy of the work also receives whatever
446     licenses to the work the party's predecessor in interest had or could
447     give under the previous paragraph, plus a right to possession of the
448     Corresponding Source of the work from the predecessor in interest, if
449     the predecessor has it or can get it with reasonable efforts.
450    
451     You may not impose any further restrictions on the exercise of the
452     rights granted or affirmed under this License. For example, you may
453     not impose a license fee, royalty, or other charge for exercise of
454     rights granted under this License, and you may not initiate litigation
455     (including a cross-claim or counterclaim in a lawsuit) alleging that
456     any patent claim is infringed by making, using, selling, offering for
457     sale, or importing the Program or any portion of it.
458    
459     ### 11. Patents.
460    
461     A "contributor" is a copyright holder who authorizes use under this
462     License of the Program or a work on which the Program is based. The
463     work thus licensed is called the contributor's "contributor version".
464    
465     A contributor's "essential patent claims" are all patent claims owned
466     or controlled by the contributor, whether already acquired or
467     hereafter acquired, that would be infringed by some manner, permitted
468     by this License, of making, using, or selling its contributor version,
469     but do not include claims that would be infringed only as a
470     consequence of further modification of the contributor version. For
471     purposes of this definition, "control" includes the right to grant
472     patent sublicenses in a manner consistent with the requirements of
473     this License.
474    
475     Each contributor grants you a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free
476     patent license under the contributor's essential patent claims, to
477     make, use, sell, offer for sale, import and otherwise run, modify and
478     propagate the contents of its contributor version.
479    
480     In the following three paragraphs, a "patent license" is any express
481     agreement or commitment, however denominated, not to enforce a patent
482     (such as an express permission to practice a patent or covenant not to
483     sue for patent infringement). To "grant" such a patent license to a
484     party means to make such an agreement or commitment not to enforce a
485     patent against the party.
486    
487     If you convey a covered work, knowingly relying on a patent license,
488     and the Corresponding Source of the work is not available for anyone
489     to copy, free of charge and under the terms of this License, through a
490     publicly available network server or other readily accessible means,
491     then you must either (1) cause the Corresponding Source to be so
492     available, or (2) arrange to deprive yourself of the benefit of the
493     patent license for this particular work, or (3) arrange, in a manner
494     consistent with the requirements of this License, to extend the patent
495     license to downstream recipients. "Knowingly relying" means you have
496     actual knowledge that, but for the patent license, your conveying the
497     covered work in a country, or your recipient's use of the covered work
498     in a country, would infringe one or more identifiable patents in that
499     country that you have reason to believe are valid.
500    
501     If, pursuant to or in connection with a single transaction or
502     arrangement, you convey, or propagate by procuring conveyance of, a
503     covered work, and grant a patent license to some of the parties
504     receiving the covered work authorizing them to use, propagate, modify
505     or convey a specific copy of the covered work, then the patent license
506     you grant is automatically extended to all recipients of the covered
507     work and works based on it.
508    
509     A patent license is "discriminatory" if it does not include within the
510     scope of its coverage, prohibits the exercise of, or is conditioned on
511     the non-exercise of one or more of the rights that are specifically
512     granted under this License. You may not convey a covered work if you
513     are a party to an arrangement with a third party that is in the
514     business of distributing software, under which you make payment to the
515     third party based on the extent of your activity of conveying the
516     work, and under which the third party grants, to any of the parties
517     who would receive the covered work from you, a discriminatory patent
518     license (a) in connection with copies of the covered work conveyed by
519     you (or copies made from those copies), or (b) primarily for and in
520     connection with specific products or compilations that contain the
521     covered work, unless you entered into that arrangement, or that patent
522     license was granted, prior to 28 March 2007.
523    
524     Nothing in this License shall be construed as excluding or limiting
525     any implied license or other defenses to infringement that may
526     otherwise be available to you under applicable patent law.
527    
528     ### 12. No Surrender of Others' Freedom.
529    
530     If conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or
531     otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not
532     excuse you from the conditions of this License. If you cannot convey a
533     covered work so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under
534     this License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a
535     consequence you may not convey it at all. For example, if you agree to
536     terms that obligate you to collect a royalty for further conveying
537     from those to whom you convey the Program, the only way you could
538     satisfy both those terms and this License would be to refrain entirely
539     from conveying the Program.
540    
541     ### 13. Remote Network Interaction; Use with the GNU General Public License.
542    
543     Notwithstanding any other provision of this License, if you modify the
544     Program, your modified version must prominently offer all users
545     interacting with it remotely through a computer network (if your
546     version supports such interaction) an opportunity to receive the
547     Corresponding Source of your version by providing access to the
548     Corresponding Source from a network server at no charge, through some
549     standard or customary means of facilitating copying of software. This
550     Corresponding Source shall include the Corresponding Source for any
551     work covered by version 3 of the GNU General Public License that is
552     incorporated pursuant to the following paragraph.
553    
554     Notwithstanding any other provision of this License, you have
555     permission to link or combine any covered work with a work licensed
556     under version 3 of the GNU General Public License into a single
557     combined work, and to convey the resulting work. The terms of this
558     License will continue to apply to the part which is the covered work,
559     but the work with which it is combined will remain governed by version
560     3 of the GNU General Public License.
561    
562     ### 14. Revised Versions of this License.
563    
564     The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions
565     of the GNU Affero General Public License from time to time. Such new
566     versions will be similar in spirit to the present version, but may
567     differ in detail to address new problems or concerns.
568    
569     Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the Program
570     specifies that a certain numbered version of the GNU Affero General
571     Public License "or any later version" applies to it, you have the
572     option of following the terms and conditions either of that numbered
573     version or of any later version published by the Free Software
574     Foundation. If the Program does not specify a version number of the
575     GNU Affero General Public License, you may choose any version ever
576     published by the Free Software Foundation.
577    
578     If the Program specifies that a proxy can decide which future versions
579     of the GNU Affero General Public License can be used, that proxy's
580     public statement of acceptance of a version permanently authorizes you
581     to choose that version for the Program.
582    
583     Later license versions may give you additional or different
584     permissions. However, no additional obligations are imposed on any
585     author or copyright holder as a result of your choosing to follow a
586     later version.
587    
588     ### 15. Disclaimer of Warranty.
589    
590     THERE IS NO WARRANTY FOR THE PROGRAM, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY
591     APPLICABLE LAW. EXCEPT WHEN OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT
592     HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER PARTIES PROVIDE THE PROGRAM "AS IS" WITHOUT
593     WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT
594     LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR
595     A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY AND
596     PERFORMANCE OF THE PROGRAM IS WITH YOU. SHOULD THE PROGRAM PROVE
597     DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE COST OF ALL NECESSARY SERVICING, REPAIR OR
598     CORRECTION.
599    
600     ### 16. Limitation of Liability.
601    
602     IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN WRITING
603     WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MODIFIES AND/OR
604     CONVEYS THE PROGRAM AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES,
605     INCLUDING ANY GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES
606     ARISING OUT OF THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT
607     NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED INACCURATE OR
608     LOSSES SUSTAINED BY YOU OR THIRD PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF THE PROGRAM
609     TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER PROGRAMS), EVEN IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER
610     PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
611    
612     ### 17. Interpretation of Sections 15 and 16.
613    
614     If the disclaimer of warranty and limitation of liability provided
615     above cannot be given local legal effect according to their terms,
616     reviewing courts shall apply local law that most closely approximates
617     an absolute waiver of all civil liability in connection with the
618     Program, unless a warranty or assumption of liability accompanies a
619     copy of the Program in return for a fee.
620    
621     END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS
622    
623     ## How to Apply These Terms to Your New Programs
624    
625     If you develop a new program, and you want it to be of the greatest
626     possible use to the public, the best way to achieve this is to make it
627     free software which everyone can redistribute and change under these
628     terms.
629    
630     To do so, attach the following notices to the program. It is safest to
631     attach them to the start of each source file to most effectively state
632     the exclusion of warranty; and each file should have at least the
633     "copyright" line and a pointer to where the full notice is found.
634    
635     <one line to give the program's name and a brief idea of what it does.>
636     Copyright (C) <year> <name of author>
637    
638     This program is free software: you can redistribute it and/or modify
639     it under the terms of the GNU Affero General Public License as
640     published by the Free Software Foundation, either version 3 of the
641     License, or (at your option) any later version.
642    
643     This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful,
644     but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of
645     MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. See the
646     GNU Affero General Public License for more details.
647    
648     You should have received a copy of the GNU Affero General Public License
649     along with this program. If not, see <https://www.gnu.org/licenses/>.
650    
651     Also add information on how to contact you by electronic and paper
652     mail.
653    
654     If your software can interact with users remotely through a computer
655     network, you should also make sure that it provides a way for users to
656     get its source. For example, if your program is a web application, its
657     interface could display a "Source" link that leads users to an archive
658     of the code. There are many ways you could offer source, and different
659     solutions will be better for different programs; see section 13 for
660     the specific requirements.
661    
662     You should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer) or
663     school, if any, to sign a "copyright disclaimer" for the program, if
664     necessary. For more information on this, and how to apply and follow
665 rakinar2 626 the GNU AGPL, see <https://www.gnu.org/licenses/>.
