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