+ FUNCTIONAL OBJECTS LIBRARY PUBLIC LICENSE
+ Version 1.0
+________________________________________________________________________
+
+Preamble.
+
+This license permits the use and distribution of the source code for
+certain Functional Objects libraries under terms intended to satisfy the Open
+Source Definition (http://www.opensource.org/osd.html).
+
+This license sets the terms and conditions for distribution of these
+libraries either:
+- as source code, or
+- as compiled libraries for use with programs such as development tools.
+
+These terms and conditions require, among other things, that any such
+distribution involve the preservation of the copyright notice and
+license terms, identification of all modifications, and a declaration of
+no warranty. They also provide for use of Functional Objects' trade names and
+trade marks in any distribution and govern their use in any advertising,
+publicity, or other such public use.
+
+This license allows the distribution of these libraries in binary form
+without requiring the distribution of source code, provided such
+libraries are distributed as part of a larger application, other than
+development tools, as further set forth below. In this respect it is
+unlike most open source agreements, which require that the source be
+made available with all binary distributions.
+
+You are not required to accept this license, since you have not signed
+it. However, nothing else grants you permission to modify or distribute
+any code, library, or any derivative works thereof. These actions are
+prohibited by law if you do not accept this license. Therefore, by
+using, modifying or distributing any code, library (or any work based on
+the code), you indicate your acceptance of the License set forth below,
+and all its terms and conditions for copying, distributing or modifying
+such Code, library, or works based on them.
+
+
+1. Definitions.
+
+1.1. "Contributor" means each entity that creates or contributes to the
+creation of Modifications.
+
+1.2. "Contributor Version" means the combination of the Original Code,
+prior Modifications used by a Contributor, and the Modifications made by
+that particular Contributor.
+
+1.3. "Covered Code" means the Original Code or Modifications or the
+combination of the Original Code and Modifications, in each case
+including portions thereof.
+
+1.4. "Deploy" means to use, sublicense or distribute Covered Code other
+than for Your internal research and development (R&D), and includes
+without limitation, any and all internal use or distribution of Covered
+Code within Your business or organization except for R&D use, as well as
+direct or indirect sublicensing or distribution of Covered Code by You
+to any third party in any form or manner.
+
+1.5. "Developer" means Functional Objects, Inc., or its affiliates or
+licensors, as applicable.
+
+1.6. "Electronic Distribution Mechanism" means a mechanism generally
+accepted in the software development community for the electronic
+transfer of data.
+
+1.7. "Executable" means Covered Code in any form other than Source Code.
+
+1.8. "Larger Work" means a work which combines Covered Code or portions
+thereof with code not governed by the terms of this License. There are
+two forms of Larger Work relevant to this license:
+
+ A. A work that Uses Covered Code means software that contains no
+ derivative of any portion of the Covered Code, but is designed to
+ work with the Covered Code by being compiled or linked with it, and
+ is not and has no ability to link to other application programs.
+
+ B. A work that Includes Covered Code means any other work,
+ including, but not limited to, one that is intended to make Covered
+ Code available as a Library to users of the Larger Work, whether by
+ aggregation, re-export of functionality, or any other method.
+
+1.9. "Library" means a collection of software functions and/or data
+prepared so as to be linked with application programs (which use some of
+those functions and data) to form executables.
+
+1.10. "License" means this document.
+
+1.11. "Licensable" means having the right to grant, to the maximum
+extent possible, whether at the time of the initial grant or
+subsequently acquired, any and all of the rights conveyed herein
+
+1.12. "Modifications" means any addition to or deletion from the
+substance or structure of either the Original Code or any previous
+Modifications. When Covered Code is released as a series of files, a
+Modification is:
+
+ A. Any addition to or deletion from the contents of a file
+ containing Original Code or previous Modifications.
+
+ B. Any new file that contains any part of the Original Code or
+ previous Modifications.
+
+ C. Any new file that extends the operation of the Covered Code, as
+ part of the same Library.
+
+1.13. "Original Code" means Source Code of computer software code
+identified under this License, excluding Modifications.
+
+1.14. "Patent Claims" means any patent claim(s), now owned or hereafter
+acquired, including without limitation, method, process, and apparatus
+claims, in any patent Licensable by grantor.
+
+1.15. "Source Code" means the preferred form of the Covered Code for
+making modifications to it, including all modules it contains, plus any
+associated interface definition files, scripts used to control
+compilation and installation of an Executable, or a list of source code
+differential comparisons against either the Original Code or another
+well-known, available Covered Code of the Contributor's choice. The
+Source Code can be in a compressed or archival form, provided the
+appropriate decompression or de-archiving software is widely available
+for no charge.
+
+1.16. "You" (or "Your") means an individual or a legal entity exercising
+rights under, and complying with all of the terms of, this License or a
+future version of this License issued under Section 5.1. For legal
+entities, "You" includes any entity which controls, is controlled by, or
+is under common control with You. For purposes of this definition,
+"control" means (a) the power, direct or indirect, to cause the
+direction or management of such entity, whether by contract or
+otherwise, or (b) ownership of fifty percent (50%) or more of the
+outstanding shares or beneficial ownership of such entity.
+
+
+2. Source Code License.
+
+2.1. License Grant.
+The Developer and each Contributor hereby grants You a world-wide,
+royalty-free, non-exclusive license, subject to third party intellectual
+property claims:
+
+(a) under intellectual property rights (other than patent or trademark)
+Licensable by Developer to use, reproduce, modify, display, perform,
+sublicense and distribute the Original Code (or portions thereof) with
+or without Modifications, alone and/or as part of a Larger Work; and
+
+(b) under Patents Claims infringed by the making, using or selling of
+Original Code, to make, have made, use, practice, sell, and offer for
+sale, and/or otherwise dispose of the Original Code (or portions
+thereof).
+
+(c) the licenses granted in this Section 2.1(a) and (b) are effective on
+the date Developer first distributes Original Code under the terms of
+this License.
+
+(d) Notwithstanding Section 2.1(b) above, no patent license is granted:
+1) for code that You delete from the Original Code; 2) separate from the
+Original Code; or 3) for infringements caused by: i) the modification of
+the Original Code or ii) the combination of the Original Code with other
+software or devices.
+
+2.2. Contributor Grant.
+Subject to third party intellectual property claims, each Contributor
+hereby grants You a world-wide, royalty-free, non-exclusive license
+
+(a) under intellectual property rights (other than patent or trademark)
+Licensable by Contributor, to use, reproduce, modify, display, perform,
+sublicense and distribute the Modifications created by such Contributor
+(or portions thereof) either on an unmodified basis, with other
+Modifications, as Covered Code and/or as part of a Larger Work; and
+
+(b) under Patent Claims infringed by the making, using, or selling of
+Modifications made by that Contributor either alone and/or in
+combination with its Contributor Version (or portions of such
+combination), to make, use, sell, offer for sale, have made, and/or
+otherwise dispose of: 1) Modifications made by that Contributor (or
+portions thereof); and 2) the combination of Modifications made by that
+Contributor with its Contributor Version (or portions of such
+combination).
+
+(c) the licenses granted in Sections 2.2(a) and 2.2(b) are effective on
+the date Contributor first Deploys the Covered Code.
+
+(d) Notwithstanding Section 2.2(b) above, no patent license is granted:
+1) for any code that Contributor has deleted from the Contributor
+Version; 2) separate from the Contributor Version; 3) for infringements
+caused by: i) third party modifications of Contributor Version or ii)
+the combination of Modifications made by that Contributor with other
+software (except as part of the Contributor Version) or other devices;
+or 4) under Patent Claims infringed by Covered Code in the absence of
+Modifications made by that Contributor.
+
+
+3. Distribution Obligations.
+
+3.1. Application of License.
+The Modifications which You create or to which You contribute are
+governed by the terms of this License, including without limitation
+Section 2.2. The Source Code version of Covered Code may be distributed
+only under the terms of this License or a future version of this License
+released under Section 5.1, and You must include a copy of this License
+with every copy of the Source Code You distribute. You may not offer or
+impose any terms on any Source Code version that alters or restricts the
+applicable version of this License or the recipients' rights
+hereunder. However, You may include an additional document offering the
+additional rights described in Section 3.5.
+
+3.2. Availability of Source Code.
+Any distribution of Covered Code as a Library, or as part of a Larger
+Work that Includes the Covered Code, must include the full Source Code
+for that Covered Code under the terms of this License either on the same
+media as an Executable version or via an accepted Electronic
+Distribution Mechanism to anyone to whom you made an Executable version
+available; and if made available via Electronic Distribution Mechanism,
+must remain available for at least twelve (12) months after the date it
+initially became available, or at least six (6) months after a
+subsequent version of that particular Modification has been made
+available to such recipients. You are responsible for ensuring that the
+Source Code version remains available even if the Electronic
+Distribution Mechanism is maintained by a third party.
+
+3.3. Description of Modifications.
+You must cause all Covered Code to which you contribute to contain a
+file documenting the changes You made to create that Covered Code and
+the date of any change. You must include a prominent statement that the
+Modification is derived, directly or indirectly, from Original Code
+provided by the Developer and including the name of the Developer in (a)
+the Source Code, and (b) in any notice in an Executable version or
+related documentation in which You describe the origin or ownership of
+the Covered Code.
+
+3.4. Intellectual Property Matters
+
+(a) Third Party Claims.
+If Contributor has knowledge that a party claims an intellectual
+property right in particular functionality or code (or its utilization
+under this License), Contributor must include a text file with the
+source code distribution titled "LEGAL" which describes the claim and
+the party making the claim in sufficient detail that a recipient will
+know whom to contact. If Contributor obtains such knowledge after the
+Modification is made available as described in Section 3.2, Contributor
+shall promptly modify the LEGAL file in all copies You make available
+thereafter and shall take other steps (such as notifying appropriate
+mailing lists or newsgroups) reasonably calculated to inform those who
+received the Covered Code that new knowledge has been obtained.
+
+(b) Contributor APIs.
+If Contributor's Modification is an application programming interface
+and Contributor owns or controls patents which are reasonably necessary
+to implement that API, Contributor must also include this information in
+the LEGAL file.
+
+(c) Representations.
+Contributor represents that, except as disclosed pursuant to Section
+3.4(a), Contributor believes that Contributor's Modifications are
+Contributor's original creation(s) and/or Contributor has sufficient
+rights to grant the rights conveyed by this License.
+
+3.5. Required Notices.
+You must duplicate the notice in Exhibit A in a location (such as a
+relevant directory file, or a library specification file, or in every
+file of the source code) where a user would be likely to look for such a
+notice. You must duplicate this License in any documentation for the
+Source Code, where You describe recipients' rights relating to Covered
+Code. If You created one or more Modification(s), You may add your name
+as a Contributor to the notice described in Exhibit A. You may choose
+to offer, and to charge a fee for, warranty, support, indemnity or
+liability obligations to one or more recipients of Covered
+Code. However, You may do so only on Your own behalf, and not on behalf
+of the Developer or any Contributor. You must make it absolutely clear
+than any such warranty, support, indemnity or liability obligation is
+offered by You alone, and You hereby agree to indemnify the Developer
+and every Contributor for any liability incurred by the Developer or
+such Contributor as a result of warranty, support, indemnity, liability
+or other additional terms You offer.
+
+3.6. Distribution of Executable Versions.
+You may distribute Covered Code in Executable form only as part of a
+Larger Work that Uses the Covered Code without restriction. Otherwise
+You may distribute Covered Code in Executable form only if the
+requirements of Section 3.1-3.5 have been met for that Covered Code, and
+only if You include a notice stating that the Source Code version of the
+Covered Code is available under the terms of this License, including a
+description of how and where You have fulfilled the obligations of
+Section 3.2. The notice must be conspicuously included in any notice in
+an Executable version, related documentation or collateral in which You
+describe recipients' rights relating to the Covered Code. You may
+distribute the Executable version of Covered Code under a license of
+Your choice, which may contain terms different from this License,
+provided that You are in compliance with the terms of this License and
+that the license for the Executable version does not attempt to limit or
+alter the recipient's rights in the Source Code version from the rights
+set forth in this License. If You distribute the Executable version
+under a different license You must make it absolutely clear that any
+terms which differ from this License are offered by You alone, not by
+the Developer or any Contributor. You hereby agree to indemnify the
+Developer and every Contributor for any damages or liability incurred by
+the Developer or such Contributor as a result of any such terms You
+offer.
+
+3.7. Larger Works.
+You may create a Larger Work by combining Covered Code with other code
+not governed by the terms of this License and distribute the Larger Work
+as a single product. In such a case, You must make sure the requirements
+of this License are fulfilled for the Covered Code.
+
+
+4. Application of this License.
+
+This License applies to code to which the Developer has attached the
+notice in Exhibit A, and to related Covered Code.
+
+You may not copy, modify, sublicense, link with, or distribute the code
+except as expressly provided under this License. Any attempt otherwise
+to copy, modify, sublicense, link with, or distribute the code is void,
+and will automatically terminate your rights under this
+License. However, parties who have received copies, or rights, from you
+under this License will not have their licenses terminated so long as
+such parties remain in full compliance.
+
+
+5. Versions of the License.
+
+5.1. New Versions.
+Functional Objects, Inc. ("Functional Objects") may publish revised
+and/or new versions of the License from time to time. Each version will
+be given a distinguishing version number.
+
+5.2. Effect of New Versions.
+Once Covered Code has been published under a particular version of the
+License, You may always continue to use it under the terms of that
+version. You may also choose to use such Covered Code under the terms of
+any subsequent version of the License published by Functional
+Objects. No one other than Functional Objects has the right to modify
+the terms applicable to Covered Code created under this License.
+
+5.3. Derivative Works.
+If you create or use a modified version of this License (which you may
+only do in order to apply it to code which is not already Covered Code
+governed by this License), you must (a) rename Your license so that the
+phrase Functional Objects or any confusingly similar phrase do not
+appear anywhere in your license and (b) otherwise make it clear that
+your version of the license contains terms which differ from the
+Functional Objects Library Public License.
+
+
+6. DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTY.
+
+COVERED CODE IS PROVIDED UNDER THIS LICENSE ON AN "AS IS" BASIS, WITHOUT
+WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, WITHOUT
+LIMITATION, WARRANTIES THAT THE COVERED CODE IS FREE OF DEFECTS,
+MERCHANTABLE, FIT FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE OR NON-INFRINGING. THE ENTIRE
+RISK AS TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE COVERED CODE IS WITH
+YOU. SHOULD ANY COVERED CODE PROVE DEFECTIVE IN ANY RESPECT, YOU (NOT
+THE DEVELOPER OR ANY OTHER CONTRIBUTOR) ASSUME THE COST OF ANY NECESSARY
+SERVICING, REPAIR OR CORRECTION. THIS DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTY CONSTITUTES
+AN ESSENTIAL PART OF THIS LICENSE. NO USE OF ANY COVERED CODE IS
+AUTHORIZED HEREUNDER EXCEPT UNDER THIS DISCLAIMER.
+
+
+7. TERMINATION.
+
+7.1 This License and the rights granted hereunder will terminate
+automatically if You fail to comply with terms herein and fail to cure
+such breach within 30 days of becoming aware of the breach. All
+sublicenses to the Covered Code which are properly granted shall survive
+any termination of this License. Provisions which, by their nature, must
+remain in effect beyond the termination of this License shall survive.
+
+7.2. If You initiate litigation by asserting a patent infringement claim
+(excluding declatory judgment actions) against Developer or a
+Contributor (the Developer or Contributor against whom You file such
+action is referred to as "Participant") alleging that:
+
+(a) such Participant's Contributor Version directly or indirectly
+infringes any patent, then any and all rights granted by such
+Participant to You under Sections 2.1 and/or 2.2 of this License shall,
+upon 60 days notice from Participant terminate prospectively, unless if
+within 60 days after receipt of notice You either: (i) agree in writing
+to pay Participant a mutually agreeable reasonable royalty for Your past
+and future use of Modifications made by such Participant, or (ii)
+withdraw Your litigation claim with respect to the Contributor Version
+against such Participant. If within 60 days of notice, a reasonable
+royalty and payment arrangement are not mutually agreed upon in writing
+by the parties or the litigation claim is not withdrawn, the rights
+granted by Participant to You under Sections 2.1 and/or 2.2
+automatically terminate at the expiration of the 60 day notice period
+specified above.
+
+(b) any software, hardware, or device, other than such Participant's
+Contributor Version, directly or indirectly infringes any patent, then
+any rights granted to You by such Participant under Sections 2.1(b)
+and/or 2.2(b) are revoked effective as of the date You first made, used,
+sold, distributed, or had made, Modifications made by that Participant.
+
+7.3. If You assert a patent infringement claim against Participant
+alleging that such Participant's Contributor Version directly or
+indirectly infringes any patent where such claim is resolved (such as by
+license or settlement) prior to the initiation of patent infringement
+litigation, then the reasonable value of the licenses granted by such
+Participant under Sections 2.1 or 2.2 shall be taken into account in
+determining the amount or value of any payment or license.
+
+7.4. In the event of termination under Sections 7.1 or 7.2 above, all
+end user license agreements (excluding distributors and resellers) which
+have been validly granted by You or any distributor hereunder prior to
+termination shall survive termination.
+
+
+8. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY.
+
+UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES AND UNDER NO LEGAL THEORY, WHETHER TORT
+(INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), CONTRACT, OR OTHERWISE, SHALL THE DEVELOPER, ANY
+OTHER CONTRIBUTOR, OR ANY DISTRIBUTOR OF COVERED CODE, OR ANY SUPPLIER
+OF ANY OF SUCH PARTIES, BE LIABLE TO YOU OR ANY OTHER PERSON FOR ANY
+INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES OF ANY CHARACTER
+INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, DAMAGES FOR LOSS OF GOODWILL, WORK
+STOPPAGE, COMPUTER FAILURE OR MALFUNCTION, OR ANY AND ALL OTHER
+COMMERCIAL DAMAGES OR LOSSES, EVEN IF SUCH PARTY SHALL HAVE BEEN
+INFORMED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. THIS LIMITATION OF
+LIABILITY SHALL NOT APPLY TO LIABILITY FOR DEATH OR PERSONAL INJURY
+RESULTING FROM SUCH PARTY'S NEGLIGENCE TO THE EXTENT APPLICABLE LAW
+PROHIBITS SUCH LIMITATION. SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION
+OR LIMITATION OF INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, SO THAT EXCLUSION
+AND LIMITATION MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.
+
+
+9. U.S. GOVERNMENT END USERS.
+
+All Covered Code is commercial computer software program developed at
+private expense and is subject to the following Restricted Rights
+Legend: "Use, duplication, or disclosure by the United States Government
+is subject to restrictions as set forth in (i) FAR 52.227-14 Alt III or
+(ii) FAR 52.227-19, as applicable. Use by agencies of the Department of
+Defense (DOD) is subject to Functional Objects' customary commercial license
+terms, contained in this License, in accordance with DFAR 227.7202-1
+(a). For purposes of the FAR, the Software shall be deemed to
+'unpublished' and licensed with disclosure prohibitions, rights reserved
+under the copyright laws of the United States. Functional Objects, Inc.,
+86 Chandler Street, Somerville, Massachusetts 02144."
+
+
+10. MISCELLANEOUS.
+
+This License represents the complete agreement concerning subject matter
+hereof. If any provision of this License is held to be unenforceable,
+such provision shall be reformed only to the extent necessary to make it
+enforceable. This License shall be governed by the laws of the
+Commonwealth of Massachusetts, excluding its conflicts of law
+provisions. The application of the United Nations Convention on
+Contracts for the International Sale of Goods is expressly excluded.
+
+
+11. RESPONSIBILITY FOR CLAIMS.
+
+Except in cases where another Contributor has failed to comply with
+Section 3.4, You are responsible for damages arising, directly or
+indirectly, out of Your utilization of rights under this License, based
+on the number of copies of Covered Code you made available, the revenues
+you received from utilizing such rights, and other relevant factors. You
+agree to work with affected parties to distribute responsibility on an
+equitable basis.
+
+
+12. MULTIPLE-LICENSED CODE.
+
+Developer may designate portions of the Covered Code as
+"Multiple-Licensed". "Multiple-Licensed" means that the Developer
+permits you to utilize portions of the Covered Code under Your choice of
+the HLPL or the alternative licenses, if any, specified by the Developer
+as described in Exhibit A.

+
+ GNU LESSER GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE
+ Version 2.1, February 1999
+
+ Copyright (C) 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 first 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 first 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 files 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
+modified 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 specified 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 fits 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 modified version of the Library.
+
+ The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and
+modification follow. Pay close attention to the difference between a
+"work based on the library" and a "work that uses the library". The
+former contains code derived from the library, whereas the latter must
+be combined with the library in order to run.
+
+ GNU LESSER GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE
+ TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION
+
+ 0. This License Agreement applies to any software library or other
+program which contains a notice placed by the copyright holder or
+other authorized party saying it may be distributed under the terms of
+this Lesser General Public License (also called "this License").
+Each licensee is addressed as "you".
+
+ A "library" means a collection of software functions and/or data
+prepared so as to be conveniently linked with application programs
+(which use some of those functions and data) to form executables.
+
+ The "Library", below, refers to any such software library or work
+which has been distributed under these terms. A "work based on the
+Library" means either the Library or any derivative work under
+copyright law: that is to say, a work containing the Library or a
+portion of it, either verbatim or with modifications and/or translated
+straightforwardly into another language. (Hereinafter, translation is
+included without limitation in the term "modification".)
+
+ "Source code" for a work means the preferred form of the work for
+making modifications to it. For a library, complete source code means
+all the source code for all modules it contains, plus any associated
+interface definition files, plus the scripts used to control compilation
+and installation of the library.
+
+ Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are not
+covered by this License; they are outside its scope. The act of
+running a program using the Library is not restricted, and output from
+such a program is covered only if its contents constitute a work based
+on the Library (independent of the use of the Library in a tool for
+writing it). Whether that is true depends on what the Library does
+and what the program that uses the Library does.
+
+ 1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Library's
+complete source code as you receive it, in any medium, provided that
+you conspicuously and appropriately publish on each copy an
+appropriate copyright notice and disclaimer of warranty; keep intact
+all the notices that refer to this License and to the absence of any
+warranty; and distribute a copy of this License along with the
+Library.
+
+ You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy,
+and you may at your option offer warranty protection in exchange for a
+fee.
+
+ 2. You may modify your copy or copies of the Library or any portion
+of it, thus forming a work based on the Library, and copy and
+distribute such modifications or work under the terms of Section 1
+above, provided that you also meet all of these conditions:
+
+ a) The modified work must itself be a software library.
+
+ b) You must cause the files modified to carry prominent notices
+ stating that you changed the files and the date of any change.
+
+ c) You must cause the whole of the work to be licensed at no
+ charge to all third parties under the terms of this License.
+
+ d) If a facility in the modified Library refers to a function or a
+ table of data to be supplied by an application program that uses
+ the facility, other than as an argument passed when the facility
+ is invoked, then you must make a good faith effort to ensure that,
+ in the event an application does not supply such function or
+ table, the facility still operates, and performs whatever part of
+ its purpose remains meaningful.
+
+ (For example, a function in a library to compute square roots has
+ a purpose that is entirely well-defined independent of the
+ application. Therefore, Subsection 2d requires that any
+ application-supplied function or table used by this function must
+ be optional: if the application does not supply it, the square
+ root function must still compute square roots.)
+
+These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole. If
+identifiable sections of that work are not derived from the Library,
+and can be reasonably considered independent and separate works in
+themselves, then this License, and its terms, do not apply to those
+sections when you distribute them as separate works. But when you
+distribute the same sections as part of a whole which is a work based
+on the Library, the distribution of the whole must be on the terms of
+this License, whose permissions for other licensees extend to the
+entire whole, and thus to each and every part regardless of who wrote
+it.
+
+Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest
+your rights to work written entirely by you; rather, the intent is to
+exercise the right to control the distribution of derivative or
+collective works based on the Library.
+
+In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the Library
+with the Library (or with a work based on the Library) on a volume of
+a storage or distribution medium does not bring the other work under
+the scope of this License.
+
+ 3. You may opt to apply the terms of the ordinary GNU General Public
+License instead of this License to a given copy of the Library. To do
+this, you must alter all the notices that refer to this License, so
+that they refer to the ordinary GNU General Public License, version 2,
+instead of to this License. (If a newer version than version 2 of the
+ordinary GNU General Public License has appeared, then you can specify
+that version instead if you wish.) Do not make any other change in
+these notices.
+
+ Once this change is made in a given copy, it is irreversible for
+that copy, so the ordinary GNU General Public License applies to all
+subsequent copies and derivative works made from that copy.
+
+ This option is useful when you wish to copy part of the code of
+the Library into a program that is not a library.
+
+ 4. You may copy and distribute the Library (or a portion or
+derivative of it, under Section 2) in object code or executable form
+under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above provided that you accompany
+it with the complete corresponding machine-readable source code, which
+must be distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a
+medium customarily used for software interchange.
+
+ If distribution of object code is made by offering access to copy
+from a designated place, then offering equivalent access to copy the
+source code from the same place satisfies the requirement to
+distribute the source code, even though third parties are not
+compelled to copy the source along with the object code.
+
+ 5. A program that contains no derivative of any portion of the
+Library, but is designed to work with the Library by being compiled or
+linked with it, is called a "work that uses the Library". Such a
+work, in isolation, is not a derivative work of the Library, and
+therefore falls outside the scope of this License.
+
+ However, linking a "work that uses the Library" with the Library
+creates an executable that is a derivative of the Library (because it
+contains portions of the Library), rather than a "work that uses the
+library". The executable is therefore covered by this License.
+Section 6 states terms for distribution of such executables.
+
+ When a "work that uses the Library" uses material from a header file
+that is part of the Library, the object code for the work may be a
+derivative work of the Library even though the source code is not.
+Whether this is true is especially significant if the work can be
+linked without the Library, or if the work is itself a library. The
+threshold for this to be true is not precisely defined by law.
+
+ If such an object file uses only numerical parameters, data
+structure layouts and accessors, and small macros and small inline
+functions (ten lines or less in length), then the use of the object
+file is unrestricted, regardless of whether it is legally a derivative
+work. (Executables containing this object code plus portions of the
+Library will still fall under Section 6.)
+
+ Otherwise, if the work is a derivative of the Library, you may
+distribute the object code for the work under the terms of Section 6.
+Any executables containing that work also fall under Section 6,
+whether or not they are linked directly with the Library itself.
+
+ 6. As an exception to the Sections above, you may also combine or
+link a "work that uses the Library" with the Library to produce a
+work containing portions of the Library, and distribute that work
+under terms of your choice, provided that the terms permit
+modification of the work for the customer's own use and reverse
+engineering for debugging such modifications.
+
+ You must give prominent notice with each copy of the work that the
+Library is used in it and that the Library and its use are covered by
+this License. You must supply a copy of this License. If the work
+during execution displays copyright notices, you must include the
+copyright notice for the Library among them, as well as a reference
+directing the user to the copy of this License. Also, you must do one
+of these things:
+
+ a) Accompany the work with the complete corresponding
+ machine-readable source code for the Library including whatever
+ changes were used in the work (which must be distributed under
+ Sections 1 and 2 above); and, if the work is an executable linked
+ with the Library, with the complete machine-readable "work that
+ uses the Library", as object code and/or source code, so that the
+ user can modify the Library and then relink to produce a modified
+ executable containing the modified Library. (It is understood
+ that the user who changes the contents of definitions files in the
+ Library will not necessarily be able to recompile the application
+ to use the modified definitions.)
+
+ b) Use a suitable shared library mechanism for linking with the
+ Library. A suitable mechanism is one that (1) uses at run time a
+ copy of the library already present on the user's computer system,
+ rather than copying library functions into the executable, and (2)
+ will operate properly with a modified version of the library, if
+ the user installs one, as long as the modified version is
+ interface-compatible with the version that the work was made with.
+
+ c) Accompany the work with a written offer, valid for at
+ least three years, to give the same user the materials
+ specified in Subsection 6a, above, for a charge no more
+ than the cost of performing this distribution.
+
+ d) If distribution of the work is made by offering access to copy
+ from a designated place, offer equivalent access to copy the above
+ specified materials from the same place.
+
+ e) Verify that the user has already received a copy of these
+ materials or that you have already sent this user a copy.
+
+ For an executable, the required form of the "work that uses the
+Library" must include any data and utility programs needed for
+reproducing the executable from it. However, as a special exception,
+the materials to be distributed need not include anything that is
+normally distributed (in either source or binary form) with the major
+components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of the operating system on
+which the executable runs, unless that component itself accompanies
+the executable.
+
+ It may happen that this requirement contradicts the license
+restrictions of other proprietary libraries that do not normally
+accompany the operating system. Such a contradiction means you cannot
+use both them and the Library together in an executable that you
+distribute.
+
+ 7. You may place library facilities that are a work based on the
+Library side-by-side in a single library together with other library
+facilities not covered by this License, and distribute such a combined
+library, provided that the separate distribution of the work based on
+the Library and of the other library facilities is otherwise
+permitted, and provided that you do these two things:
+
+ a) Accompany the combined library with a copy of the same work
+ based on the Library, uncombined with any other library
+ facilities. This must be distributed under the terms of the
+ Sections above.
+
+ b) Give prominent notice with the combined library of the fact
+ that part of it is a work based on the Library, and explaining
+ where to find the accompanying uncombined form of the same work.
+
+ 8. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, link with, or distribute
+the Library except as expressly provided under this License. Any
+attempt otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense, link with, or
+distribute the Library is void, and will automatically terminate your
+rights under this License. However, parties who have received copies,
+or rights, from you under this License will not have their licenses
+terminated so long as such parties remain in full compliance.
+
+ 9. You are not required to accept this License, since you have not
+signed it. However, nothing else grants you permission to modify or
+distribute the Library or its derivative works. These actions are
+prohibited by law if you do not accept this License. Therefore, by
+modifying or distributing the Library (or any work based on the
+Library), you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so, and
+all its terms and conditions for copying, distributing or modifying
+the Library or works based on it.
+
+ 10. Each time you redistribute the Library (or any work based on the
+Library), the recipient automatically receives a license from the
+original licensor to copy, distribute, link with or modify the Library
+subject to these terms and conditions. You may not impose any further
+restrictions on the recipients' exercise of the rights granted herein.
+You are not responsible for enforcing compliance by third parties with
+this License.
+
+ 11. If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent
+infringement or for any other reason (not limited to patent issues),
+conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or
+otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not
+excuse you from the conditions of this License. If you cannot
+distribute so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this
+License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you
+may not distribute the Library at all. For example, if a patent
+license would not permit royalty-free redistribution of the Library by
+all those who receive copies directly or indirectly through you, then
+the only way you could satisfy both it and this License would be to
+refrain entirely from distribution of the Library.
+
+If any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable under any
+particular circumstance, the balance of the section is intended to apply,
+and the section as a whole is intended to apply in other circumstances.
+
+It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe any
+patents or other property right claims or to contest validity of any
+such claims; this section has the sole purpose of protecting the
+integrity of the free software distribution system which is
+implemented by public license practices. Many people have made
+generous contributions to the wide range of software distributed
+through that system in reliance on consistent application of that
+system; it is up to the author/donor to decide if he or she is willing
+to distribute software through any other system and a licensee cannot
+impose that choice.
+
+This section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is believed to
+be a consequence of the rest of this License.
+
+ 12. If the distribution and/or use of the Library is restricted in
+certain countries either by patents or by copyrighted interfaces, the
+original copyright holder who places the Library under this License may add
+an explicit geographical distribution limitation excluding those countries,
+so that distribution is permitted only in or among countries not thus
+excluded. In such case, this License incorporates the limitation as if
+written in the body of this License.
+
+ 13. The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new
+versions of the Lesser General Public License from time to time.
+Such new versions will be similar in spirit to the present version,
+but may differ in detail to address new problems or concerns.
+
+Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the Library
+specifies a version number of this License which applies to it and
+"any later version", you have the option of following the terms and
+conditions either of that version or of any later version published by
+the Free Software Foundation. If the Library does not specify a
+license version number, you may choose any version ever published by
+the Free Software Foundation.
+
+ 14. If you wish to incorporate parts of the Library into other free
+programs whose distribution conditions are incompatible with these,
+write to the author to ask for permission. For software which is
+copyrighted by the Free Software Foundation, write to the Free
+Software Foundation; we sometimes make exceptions for this. Our
+decision will be guided by the two goals of preserving the free status
+of all derivatives of our free software and of promoting the sharing
+and reuse of software generally.
+
+ NO WARRANTY
+
+ 15. BECAUSE THE LIBRARY IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE, THERE IS NO
+WARRANTY FOR THE LIBRARY, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW.
+EXCEPT WHEN OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS AND/OR
+OTHER PARTIES PROVIDE THE LIBRARY "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY
+KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE
+IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR
+PURPOSE. THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE
+LIBRARY IS WITH YOU. SHOULD THE LIBRARY PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME
+THE COST OF ALL NECESSARY SERVICING, REPAIR OR CORRECTION.
+
+ 16. IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN
+WRITING WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MAY MODIFY
+AND/OR REDISTRIBUTE THE LIBRARY AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU
+FOR DAMAGES, INCLUDING ANY GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR
+CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE
+LIBRARY (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF DATA OR DATA BEING
+RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY YOU OR THIRD PARTIES OR A
+FAILURE OF THE LIBRARY TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER SOFTWARE), EVEN IF
+SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH
+DAMAGES.
+
+ END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS
+
+ How to Apply These Terms to Your New Libraries
+
+ If you develop a new library, and you want it to be of the greatest
+possible use to the public, we recommend making it free software that
+everyone can redistribute and change. You can do so by permitting
+redistribution under these terms (or, alternatively, under the terms of the
+ordinary General Public License).
+
+ To apply these terms, attach the following notices to the library. It is
+safest to attach them to the start of each source file to most effectively
+convey the exclusion of warranty; and each file should have at least the
+"copyright" line and a pointer to where the full notice is found.
+
+ <one line to give the library's name and a brief idea of what it does.>
+ Copyright (C) <year> <name of author>

+ This library is distributed in the hope that it will be useful,
+ but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of

+
+Also add information on how to contact you by electronic and paper mail.
+
+You should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer) or your
+school, if any, to sign a "copyright disclaimer" for the library, if
+necessary. Here is a sample; alter the names:
