Administrivia cleanup - overdue to update the copyright dates

Not sure how I managed this, but the copy of the GPL in COPYING
got pasted in the file twice. O_o Recopied from the FSF website,
diff confirms just removal of the duplicate

    673673Public License instead of this License.  But first, please read
    674674<http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/why-not-lgpl.html>.
    675                     GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE
    676                        Version 3, 29 June 2007
    677 
    678  Copyright (C) 2007 Free Software Foundation, Inc. <http://fsf.org/>
    679  Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies
    680  of this license document, but changing it is not allowed.
    681 
    682                             Preamble
    683 
    684   The GNU General Public License is a free, copyleft license for
    685 software and other kinds of works.
    686 
    687   The licenses for most software and other practical works are designed
    688 to take away your freedom to share and change the works.  By contrast,
    689 the GNU General Public License is intended to guarantee your freedom to
    690 share and change all versions of a program--to make sure it remains free
    691 software for all its users.  We, the Free Software Foundation, use the
    692 GNU General Public License for most of our software; it applies also to
    693 any other work released this way by its authors.  You can apply it to
    694 your programs, too.
    695 
    696   When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not
    697 price.  Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that you
    698 have the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge for
    699 them if you wish), that you receive source code or can get it if you
    700 want it, that you can change the software or use pieces of it in new
    701 free programs, and that you know you can do these things.
    702 
    703   To protect your rights, we need to prevent others from denying you
    704 these rights or asking you to surrender the rights.  Therefore, you have
    705 certain responsibilities if you distribute copies of the software, or if
    706 you modify it: responsibilities to respect the freedom of others.
    707 
    708   For example, if you distribute copies of such a program, whether
    709 gratis or for a fee, you must pass on to the recipients the same
    710 freedoms that you received.  You must make sure that they, too, receive
    711 or can get the source code.  And you must show them these terms so they
    712 know their rights.
    713 
    714   Developers that use the GNU GPL protect your rights with two steps:
    715 (1) assert copyright on the software, and (2) offer you this License
    716 giving you legal permission to copy, distribute and/or modify it.
    717 
    718   For the developers' and authors' protection, the GPL clearly explains
    719 that there is no warranty for this free software.  For both users' and
    720 authors' sake, the GPL requires that modified versions be marked as
    721 changed, so that their problems will not be attributed erroneously to
    722 authors of previous versions.
    723 
    724   Some devices are designed to deny users access to install or run
    725 modified versions of the software inside them, although the manufacturer
    726 can do so.  This is fundamentally incompatible with the aim of
    727 protecting users' freedom to change the software.  The systematic
    728 pattern of such abuse occurs in the area of products for individuals to
    729 use, which is precisely where it is most unacceptable.  Therefore, we
    730 have designed this version of the GPL to prohibit the practice for those
    731 products.  If such problems arise substantially in other domains, we
    732 stand ready to extend this provision to those domains in future versions
    733 of the GPL, as needed to protect the freedom of users.
    734 
    735   Finally, every program is threatened constantly by software patents.
    736 States should not allow patents to restrict development and use of
    737 software on general-purpose computers, but in those that do, we wish to
    738 avoid the special danger that patents applied to a free program could
    739 make it effectively proprietary.  To prevent this, the GPL assures that
    740 patents cannot be used to render the program non-free.
    741 
    742   The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and
    743 modification follow.
    744 
    745                        TERMS AND CONDITIONS
    746 
    747   0. Definitions.
    748 
    749   "This License" refers to version 3 of the GNU General Public License.
    750 
    751   "Copyright" also means copyright-like laws that apply to other kinds of
    752 works, such as semiconductor masks.
    753 
    754   "The Program" refers to any copyrightable work licensed under this
    755 License.  Each licensee is addressed as "you".  "Licensees" and
    756 "recipients" may be individuals or organizations.
    757 
    758   To "modify" a work means to copy from or adapt all or part of the work
    759 in a fashion requiring copyright permission, other than the making of an
    760 exact copy.  The resulting work is called a "modified version" of the
    761 earlier work or a work "based on" the earlier work.
    762 
    763   A "covered work" means either the unmodified Program or a work based
    764 on the Program.
    765 
    766   To "propagate" a work means to do anything with it that, without
    767 permission, would make you directly or secondarily liable for
    768 infringement under applicable copyright law, except executing it on a
    769 computer or modifying a private copy.  Propagation includes copying,
    770 distribution (with or without modification), making available to the
    771 public, and in some countries other activities as well.
    772 
    773   To "convey" a work means any kind of propagation that enables other
    774 parties to make or receive copies.  Mere interaction with a user through
    775 a computer network, with no transfer of a copy, is not conveying.
    776 
    777   An interactive user interface displays "Appropriate Legal Notices"
    778 to the extent that it includes a convenient and prominently visible
    779 feature that (1) displays an appropriate copyright notice, and (2)
    780 tells the user that there is no warranty for the work (except to the
    781 extent that warranties are provided), that licensees may convey the
    782 work under this License, and how to view a copy of this License.  If
    783 the interface presents a list of user commands or options, such as a
    784 menu, a prominent item in the list meets this criterion.
    785 
    786   1. Source Code.
    787 
    788   The "source code" for a work means the preferred form of the work
    789 for making modifications to it.  "Object code" means any non-source
    790 form of a work.
    791 
    792   A "Standard Interface" means an interface that either is an official
    793 standard defined by a recognized standards body, or, in the case of
    794 interfaces specified for a particular programming language, one that
    795 is widely used among developers working in that language.
    796 
    797   The "System Libraries" of an executable work include anything, other
    798 than the work as a whole, that (a) is included in the normal form of
    799 packaging a Major Component, but which is not part of that Major
    800 Component, and (b) serves only to enable use of the work with that
    801 Major Component, or to implement a Standard Interface for which an
    802 implementation is available to the public in source code form.  A
    803 "Major Component", in this context, means a major essential component
    804 (kernel, window system, and so on) of the specific operating system
    805 (if any) on which the executable work runs, or a compiler used to
    806 produce the work, or an object code interpreter used to run it.
    807 
    808   The "Corresponding Source" for a work in object code form means all
    809 the source code needed to generate, install, and (for an executable
    810 work) run the object code and to modify the work, including scripts to
    811 control those activities.  However, it does not include the work's
    812 System Libraries, or general-purpose tools or generally available free
    813 programs which are used unmodified in performing those activities but
    814 which are not part of the work.  For example, Corresponding Source
    815 includes interface definition files associated with source files for
    816 the work, and the source code for shared libraries and dynamically
    817 linked subprograms that the work is specifically designed to require,
    818 such as by intimate data communication or control flow between those
    819 subprograms and other parts of the work.
    820 
    821   The Corresponding Source need not include anything that users
    822 can regenerate automatically from other parts of the Corresponding
    823 Source.
    824 
    825   The Corresponding Source for a work in source code form is that
    826 same work.
    827 
    828   2. Basic Permissions.
    829 
    830   All rights granted under this License are granted for the term of
    831 copyright on the Program, and are irrevocable provided the stated
    832 conditions are met.  This License explicitly affirms your unlimited
    833 permission to run the unmodified Program.  The output from running a
    834 covered work is covered by this License only if the output, given its
    835 content, constitutes a covered work.  This License acknowledges your
    836 rights of fair use or other equivalent, as provided by copyright law.
    837 
    838   You may make, run and propagate covered works that you do not
    839 convey, without conditions so long as your license otherwise remains
    840 in force.  You may convey covered works to others for the sole purpose
    841 of having them make modifications exclusively for you, or provide you
    842 with facilities for running those works, provided that you comply with
    843 the terms of this License in conveying all material for which you do
    844 not control copyright.  Those thus making or running the covered works
    845 for you must do so exclusively on your behalf, under your direction
    846 and control, on terms that prohibit them from making any copies of
    847 your copyrighted material outside their relationship with you.
    848 
    849   Conveying under any other circumstances is permitted solely under
    850 the conditions stated below.  Sublicensing is not allowed; section 10
    851 makes it unnecessary.
    852 
    853   3. Protecting Users' Legal Rights From Anti-Circumvention Law.
    854 
    855   No covered work shall be deemed part of an effective technological
    856 measure under any applicable law fulfilling obligations under article
    857 11 of the WIPO copyright treaty adopted on 20 December 1996, or
    858 similar laws prohibiting or restricting circumvention of such
    859 measures.
    860 
    861   When you convey a covered work, you waive any legal power to forbid
    862 circumvention of technological measures to the extent such circumvention
    863 is effected by exercising rights under this License with respect to
    864 the covered work, and you disclaim any intention to limit operation or
    865 modification of the work as a means of enforcing, against the work's
    866 users, your or third parties' legal rights to forbid circumvention of
    867 technological measures.
    868 
    869   4. Conveying Verbatim Copies.
    870 
    871   You may convey verbatim copies of the Program's source code as you
    872 receive it, in any medium, provided that you conspicuously and
    873 appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate copyright notice;
    874 keep intact all notices stating that this License and any
    875 non-permissive terms added in accord with section 7 apply to the code;
    876 keep intact all notices of the absence of any warranty; and give all
    877 recipients a copy of this License along with the Program.
    878 
    879   You may charge any price or no price for each copy that you convey,
    880 and you may offer support or warranty protection for a fee.
    881 
    882   5. Conveying Modified Source Versions.
    883 
    884   You may convey a work based on the Program, or the modifications to
    885 produce it from the Program, in the form of source code under the
    886 terms of section 4, provided that you also meet all of these conditions:
    887 
    888     a) The work must carry prominent notices stating that you modified
    889     it, and giving a relevant date.
    890 
    891     b) The work must carry prominent notices stating that it is
    892     released under this License and any conditions added under section
    893     7.  This requirement modifies the requirement in section 4 to
    894     "keep intact all notices".
    895 
    896     c) You must license the entire work, as a whole, under this
    897     License to anyone who comes into possession of a copy.  This
    898     License will therefore apply, along with any applicable section 7
    899     additional terms, to the whole of the work, and all its parts,
    900     regardless of how they are packaged.  This License gives no
    901     permission to license the work in any other way, but it does not
    902     invalidate such permission if you have separately received it.
    903 
    904     d) If the work has interactive user interfaces, each must display
    905     Appropriate Legal Notices; however, if the Program has interactive
    906     interfaces that do not display Appropriate Legal Notices, your
    907     work need not make them do so.
    908 
    909   A compilation of a covered work with other separate and independent
    910 works, which are not by their nature extensions of the covered work,
    911 and which are not combined with it such as to form a larger program,
    912 in or on a volume of a storage or distribution medium, is called an
    913 "aggregate" if the compilation and its resulting copyright are not
    914 used to limit the access or legal rights of the compilation's users
    915 beyond what the individual works permit.  Inclusion of a covered work
    916 in an aggregate does not cause this License to apply to the other
    917 parts of the aggregate.
    918 
    919   6. Conveying Non-Source Forms.
    920 
    921   You may convey a covered work in object code form under the terms
    922 of sections 4 and 5, provided that you also convey the
    923 machine-readable Corresponding Source under the terms of this License,
    924 in one of these ways:
    925 
    926     a) Convey the object code in, or embodied in, a physical product
    927     (including a physical distribution medium), accompanied by the
    928     Corresponding Source fixed on a durable physical medium
    929     customarily used for software interchange.
    930 
    931     b) Convey the object code in, or embodied in, a physical product
    932     (including a physical distribution medium), accompanied by a
    933     written offer, valid for at least three years and valid for as
    934     long as you offer spare parts or customer support for that product
    935     model, to give anyone who possesses the object code either (1) a
    936     copy of the Corresponding Source for all the software in the
    937     product that is covered by this License, on a durable physical
    938     medium customarily used for software interchange, for a price no
    939     more than your reasonable cost of physically performing this
    940     conveying of source, or (2) access to copy the
    941     Corresponding Source from a network server at no charge.
    942 
    943     c) Convey individual copies of the object code with a copy of the
    944     written offer to provide the Corresponding Source.  This
    945     alternative is allowed only occasionally and noncommercially, and
    946     only if you received the object code with such an offer, in accord
    947     with subsection 6b.
    948 
    949     d) Convey the object code by offering access from a designated
    950     place (gratis or for a charge), and offer equivalent access to the
    951     Corresponding Source in the same way through the same place at no
    952     further charge.  You need not require recipients to copy the
    953     Corresponding Source along with the object code.  If the place to
    954     copy the object code is a network server, the Corresponding Source
    955     may be on a different server (operated by you or a third party)
    956     that supports equivalent copying facilities, provided you maintain
    957     clear directions next to the object code saying where to find the
    958     Corresponding Source.  Regardless of what server hosts the
    959     Corresponding Source, you remain obligated to ensure that it is
    960     available for as long as needed to satisfy these requirements.
    961 
    962     e) Convey the object code using peer-to-peer transmission, provided
    963     you inform other peers where the object code and Corresponding
    964     Source of the work are being offered to the general public at no
    965     charge under subsection 6d.
    966 
    967   A separable portion of the object code, whose source code is excluded
    968 from the Corresponding Source as a System Library, need not be
    969 included in conveying the object code work.
    970 
    971   A "User Product" is either (1) a "consumer product", which means any
    972 tangible personal property which is normally used for personal, family,
    973 or household purposes, or (2) anything designed or sold for incorporation
    974 into a dwelling.  In determining whether a product is a consumer product,
    975 doubtful cases shall be resolved in favor of coverage.  For a particular
    976 product received by a particular user, "normally used" refers to a
    977 typical or common use of that class of product, regardless of the status
    978 of the particular user or of the way in which the particular user
    979 actually uses, or expects or is expected to use, the product.  A product
    980 is a consumer product regardless of whether the product has substantial
    981 commercial, industrial or non-consumer uses, unless such uses represent
    982 the only significant mode of use of the product.
    983 
    984   "Installation Information" for a User Product means any methods,
    985 procedures, authorization keys, or other information required to install
    986 and execute modified versions of a covered work in that User Product from
    987 a modified version of its Corresponding Source.  The information must
    988 suffice to ensure that the continued functioning of the modified object
    989 code is in no case prevented or interfered with solely because
    990 modification has been made.
    991 
    992   If you convey an object code work under this section in, or with, or
    993 specifically for use in, a User Product, and the conveying occurs as
    994 part of a transaction in which the right of possession and use of the
    995 User Product is transferred to the recipient in perpetuity or for a
    996 fixed term (regardless of how the transaction is characterized), the
    997 Corresponding Source conveyed under this section must be accompanied
    998 by the Installation Information.  But this requirement does not apply
    999 if neither you nor any third party retains the ability to install
    1000 modified object code on the User Product (for example, the work has
    1001 been installed in ROM).
    1002 
    1003   The requirement to provide Installation Information does not include a
    1004 requirement to continue to provide support service, warranty, or updates
    1005 for a work that has been modified or installed by the recipient, or for
    1006 the User Product in which it has been modified or installed.  Access to a
    1007 network may be denied when the modification itself materially and
    1008 adversely affects the operation of the network or violates the rules and
    1009 protocols for communication across the network.
    1010 
    1011   Corresponding Source conveyed, and Installation Information provided,
    1012 in accord with this section must be in a format that is publicly
    1013 documented (and with an implementation available to the public in
    1014 source code form), and must require no special password or key for
    1015 unpacking, reading or copying.
    1016 
    1017   7. Additional Terms.
    1018 
    1019   "Additional permissions" are terms that supplement the terms of this
    1020 License by making exceptions from one or more of its conditions.
    1021 Additional permissions that are applicable to the entire Program shall
    1022 be treated as though they were included in this License, to the extent
    1023 that they are valid under applicable law.  If additional permissions
    1024 apply only to part of the Program, that part may be used separately
    1025 under those permissions, but the entire Program remains governed by
    1026 this License without regard to the additional permissions.
    1027 
    1028   When you convey a copy of a covered work, you may at your option
    1029 remove any additional permissions from that copy, or from any part of
    1030 it.  (Additional permissions may be written to require their own
    1031 removal in certain cases when you modify the work.)  You may place
    1032 additional permissions on material, added by you to a covered work,
    1033 for which you have or can give appropriate copyright permission.
    1034 
    1035   Notwithstanding any other provision of this License, for material you
    1036 add to a covered work, you may (if authorized by the copyright holders of
    1037 that material) supplement the terms of this License with terms:
    1038 
    1039     a) Disclaiming warranty or limiting liability differently from the
    1040     terms of sections 15 and 16 of this License; or
    1041 
    1042     b) Requiring preservation of specified reasonable legal notices or
    1043     author attributions in that material or in the Appropriate Legal
    1044     Notices displayed by works containing it; or
    1045 
    1046     c) Prohibiting misrepresentation of the origin of that material, or
    1047     requiring that modified versions of such material be marked in
    1048     reasonable ways as different from the original version; or
    1049 
    1050     d) Limiting the use for publicity purposes of names of licensors or
    1051     authors of the material; or
    1052 
    1053     e) Declining to grant rights under trademark law for use of some
    1054     trade names, trademarks, or service marks; or
    1055 
    1056     f) Requiring indemnification of licensors and authors of that
    1057     material by anyone who conveys the material (or modified versions of
    1058     it) with contractual assumptions of liability to the recipient, for
    1059     any liability that these contractual assumptions directly impose on
    1060     those licensors and authors.
    1061 
    1062   All other non-permissive additional terms are considered "further
    1063 restrictions" within the meaning of section 10.  If the Program as you
    1064 received it, or any part of it, contains a notice stating that it is
    1065 governed by this License along with a term that is a further
    1066 restriction, you may remove that term.  If a license document contains
    1067 a further restriction but permits relicensing or conveying under this
    1068 License, you may add to a covered work material governed by the terms
    1069 of that license document, provided that the further restriction does
    1070 not survive such relicensing or conveying.
    1071 
    1072   If you add terms to a covered work in accord with this section, you
    1073 must place, in the relevant source files, a statement of the
    1074 additional terms that apply to those files, or a notice indicating
    1075 where to find the applicable terms.
    1076 
    1077   Additional terms, permissive or non-permissive, may be stated in the
    1078 form of a separately written license, or stated as exceptions;
    1079 the above requirements apply either way.
    1080 
    1081   8. Termination.
    1082 
    1083   You may not propagate or modify a covered work except as expressly
    1084 provided under this License.  Any attempt otherwise to propagate or
    1085 modify it is void, and will automatically terminate your rights under
    1086 this License (including any patent licenses granted under the third
    1087 paragraph of section 11).
    1088 
    1089   However, if you cease all violation of this License, then your
    1090 license from a particular copyright holder is reinstated (a)
    1091 provisionally, unless and until the copyright holder explicitly and
    1092 finally terminates your license, and (b) permanently, if the copyright
    1093 holder fails to notify you of the violation by some reasonable means
    1094 prior to 60 days after the cessation.
    1095 
    1096   Moreover, your license from a particular copyright holder is
    1097 reinstated permanently if the copyright holder notifies you of the
    1098 violation by some reasonable means, this is the first time you have
    1099 received notice of violation of this License (for any work) from that
    1100 copyright holder, and you cure the violation prior to 30 days after
    1101 your receipt of the notice.
    1102 
    1103   Termination of your rights under this section does not terminate the
    1104 licenses of parties who have received copies or rights from you under
    1105 this License.  If your rights have been terminated and not permanently
    1106 reinstated, you do not qualify to receive new licenses for the same
    1107 material under section 10.
    1108 
    1109   9. Acceptance Not Required for Having Copies.
    1110 
    1111   You are not required to accept this License in order to receive or
    1112 run a copy of the Program.  Ancillary propagation of a covered work
    1113 occurring solely as a consequence of using peer-to-peer transmission
    1114 to receive a copy likewise does not require acceptance.  However,
    1115 nothing other than this License grants you permission to propagate or
    1116 modify any covered work.  These actions infringe copyright if you do
    1117 not accept this License.  Therefore, by modifying or propagating a
    1118 covered work, you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so.
    1119 
    1120   10. Automatic Licensing of Downstream Recipients.
    1121 
    1122   Each time you convey a covered work, the recipient automatically
    1123 receives a license from the original licensors, to run, modify and
    1124 propagate that work, subject to this License.  You are not responsible
    1125 for enforcing compliance by third parties with this License.
    1126 
    1127   An "entity transaction" is a transaction transferring control of an
    1128 organization, or substantially all assets of one, or subdividing an
    1129 organization, or merging organizations.  If propagation of a covered
    1130 work results from an entity transaction, each party to that
    1131 transaction who receives a copy of the work also receives whatever
    1132 licenses to the work the party's predecessor in interest had or could
    1133 give under the previous paragraph, plus a right to possession of the
    1134 Corresponding Source of the work from the predecessor in interest, if
    1135 the predecessor has it or can get it with reasonable efforts.
    1136 
    1137   You may not impose any further restrictions on the exercise of the
    1138 rights granted or affirmed under this License.  For example, you may
    1139 not impose a license fee, royalty, or other charge for exercise of
    1140 rights granted under this License, and you may not initiate litigation
    1141 (including a cross-claim or counterclaim in a lawsuit) alleging that
    1142 any patent claim is infringed by making, using, selling, offering for
    1143 sale, or importing the Program or any portion of it.
    1144 
    1145   11. Patents.
    1146 
    1147   A "contributor" is a copyright holder who authorizes use under this
    1148 License of the Program or a work on which the Program is based.  The
    1149 work thus licensed is called the contributor's "contributor version".
    1150 
    1151   A contributor's "essential patent claims" are all patent claims
    1152 owned or controlled by the contributor, whether already acquired or
    1153 hereafter acquired, that would be infringed by some manner, permitted
    1154 by this License, of making, using, or selling its contributor version,
    1155 but do not include claims that would be infringed only as a
    1156 consequence of further modification of the contributor version.  For
    1157 purposes of this definition, "control" includes the right to grant
    1158 patent sublicenses in a manner consistent with the requirements of
    1159 this License.
    1160 
    1161   Each contributor grants you a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free
    1162 patent license under the contributor's essential patent claims, to
    1163 make, use, sell, offer for sale, import and otherwise run, modify and
    1164 propagate the contents of its contributor version.
    1165 
    1166   In the following three paragraphs, a "patent license" is any express
    1167 agreement or commitment, however denominated, not to enforce a patent
    1168 (such as an express permission to practice a patent or covenant not to
    1169 sue for patent infringement).  To "grant" such a patent license to a
    1170 party means to make such an agreement or commitment not to enforce a
    1171 patent against the party.
    1172 
    1173   If you convey a covered work, knowingly relying on a patent license,
    1174 and the Corresponding Source of the work is not available for anyone
    1175 to copy, free of charge and under the terms of this License, through a
    1176 publicly available network server or other readily accessible means,
    1177 then you must either (1) cause the Corresponding Source to be so
    1178 available, or (2) arrange to deprive yourself of the benefit of the
    1179 patent license for this particular work, or (3) arrange, in a manner
    1180 consistent with the requirements of this License, to extend the patent
    1181 license to downstream recipients.  "Knowingly relying" means you have
    1182 actual knowledge that, but for the patent license, your conveying the
    1183 covered work in a country, or your recipient's use of the covered work
    1184 in a country, would infringe one or more identifiable patents in that
    1185 country that you have reason to believe are valid.
    1186 
    1187   If, pursuant to or in connection with a single transaction or
    1188 arrangement, you convey, or propagate by procuring conveyance of, a
    1189 covered work, and grant a patent license to some of the parties
    1190 receiving the covered work authorizing them to use, propagate, modify
    1191 or convey a specific copy of the covered work, then the patent license
    1192 you grant is automatically extended to all recipients of the covered
    1193 work and works based on it.
    1194 
    1195   A patent license is "discriminatory" if it does not include within
    1196 the scope of its coverage, prohibits the exercise of, or is
    1197 conditioned on the non-exercise of one or more of the rights that are
    1198 specifically granted under this License.  You may not convey a covered
    1199 work if you are a party to an arrangement with a third party that is
    1200 in the business of distributing software, under which you make payment
    1201 to the third party based on the extent of your activity of conveying
    1202 the work, and under which the third party grants, to any of the
    1203 parties who would receive the covered work from you, a discriminatory
    1204 patent license (a) in connection with copies of the covered work
    1205 conveyed by you (or copies made from those copies), or (b) primarily
    1206 for and in connection with specific products or compilations that
    1207 contain the covered work, unless you entered into that arrangement,
    1208 or that patent license was granted, prior to 28 March 2007.
    1209 
    1210   Nothing in this License shall be construed as excluding or limiting
    1211 any implied license or other defenses to infringement that may
    1212 otherwise be available to you under applicable patent law.
    1213 
    1214   12. No Surrender of Others' Freedom.
    1215 
    1216   If conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or
    1217 otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not
    1218 excuse you from the conditions of this License.  If you cannot convey a
    1219 covered work so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this
    1220 License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you may
    1221 not convey it at all.  For example, if you agree to terms that obligate you
    1222 to collect a royalty for further conveying from those to whom you convey
    1223 the Program, the only way you could satisfy both those terms and this
    1224 License would be to refrain entirely from conveying the Program.
    1225 
    1226   13. Use with the GNU Affero General Public License.
    1227 
    1228   Notwithstanding any other provision of this License, you have
    1229 permission to link or combine any covered work with a work licensed
    1230 under version 3 of the GNU Affero General Public License into a single
    1231 combined work, and to convey the resulting work.  The terms of this
    1232 License will continue to apply to the part which is the covered work,
    1233 but the special requirements of the GNU Affero General Public License,
    1234 section 13, concerning interaction through a network will apply to the
    1235 combination as such.
    1236 
    1237   14. Revised Versions of this License.
    1238 
    1239   The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions of
    1240 the GNU General Public License from time to time.  Such new versions will
    1241 be similar in spirit to the present version, but may differ in detail to
    1242 address new problems or concerns.
    1243 
    1244   Each version is given a distinguishing version number.  If the
    1245 Program specifies that a certain numbered version of the GNU General
    1246 Public License "or any later version" applies to it, you have the
    1247 option of following the terms and conditions either of that numbered
    1248 version or of any later version published by the Free Software
    1249 Foundation.  If the Program does not specify a version number of the
    1250 GNU General Public License, you may choose any version ever published
    1251 by the Free Software Foundation.
    1252 
    1253   If the Program specifies that a proxy can decide which future
    1254 versions of the GNU General Public License can be used, that proxy's
    1255 public statement of acceptance of a version permanently authorizes you
    1256 to choose that version for the Program.
    1257 
    1258   Later license versions may give you additional or different
    1259 permissions.  However, no additional obligations are imposed on any
    1260 author or copyright holder as a result of your choosing to follow a
    1261 later version.
    1262 
    1263   15. Disclaimer of Warranty.
    1264 
    1265   THERE IS NO WARRANTY FOR THE PROGRAM, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY
    1266 APPLICABLE LAW.  EXCEPT WHEN OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT
    1267 HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER PARTIES PROVIDE THE PROGRAM "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY
    1268 OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO,
    1269 THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR
    1270 PURPOSE.  THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE PROGRAM
    1271 IS WITH YOU.  SHOULD THE PROGRAM PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE COST OF
    1272 ALL NECESSARY SERVICING, REPAIR OR CORRECTION.
    1273 
    1274   16. Limitation of Liability.
    1275 
    1276   IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN WRITING
    1277 WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MODIFIES AND/OR CONVEYS
    1278 THE PROGRAM AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES, INCLUDING ANY
    1279 GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THE
    1280 USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF
    1281 DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY YOU OR THIRD
    1282 PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF THE PROGRAM TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER PROGRAMS),
    1283 EVEN IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF
    1284 SUCH DAMAGES.
    1285 
    1286   17. Interpretation of Sections 15 and 16.
    1287 
    1288   If the disclaimer of warranty and limitation of liability provided
    1289 above cannot be given local legal effect according to their terms,
    1290 reviewing courts shall apply local law that most closely approximates
    1291 an absolute waiver of all civil liability in connection with the
    1292 Program, unless a warranty or assumption of liability accompanies a
    1293 copy of the Program in return for a fee.
    1294 
    1295                      END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS
    1296 
    1297             How to Apply These Terms to Your New Programs
    1298 
    1299   If you develop a new program, and you want it to be of the greatest
    1300 possible use to the public, the best way to achieve this is to make it
    1301 free software which everyone can redistribute and change under these terms.
    1302 
    1303   To do so, attach the following notices to the program.  It is safest
    1304 to attach them to the start of each source file to most effectively
    1305 state the exclusion of warranty; and each file should have at least
    1306 the "copyright" line and a pointer to where the full notice is found.
    1307 
    1308     <one line to give the program's name and a brief idea of what it does.>
    1309     Copyright (C) <year>  <name of author>
    1310 
    1311     This program is free software: you can redistribute it and/or modify
    1312     it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by
    1313     the Free Software Foundation, either version 3 of the License, or
    1314     (at your option) any later version.
    1315 
    1316     This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful,
    1317     but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of
    1318     MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.  See the
    1319     GNU General Public License for more details.
    1320 
    1321     You should have received a copy of the GNU General Public License
    1322     along with this program.  If not, see <http://www.gnu.org/licenses/>.
    1323 
    1324 Also add information on how to contact you by electronic and paper mail.
    1325 
    1326   If the program does terminal interaction, make it output a short
    1327 notice like this when it starts in an interactive mode:
    1328 
    1329     <program>  Copyright (C) <year>  <name of author>
    1330     This program comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY; for details type `show w'.
    1331     This is free software, and you are welcome to redistribute it
    1332     under certain conditions; type `show c' for details.
    1333 
    1334 The hypothetical commands `show w' and `show c' should show the appropriate
    1335 parts of the General Public License.  Of course, your program's commands
    1336 might be different; for a GUI interface, you would use an "about box".
    1337 
    1338   You should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer) or school,
    1339 if any, to sign a "copyright disclaimer" for the program, if necessary.
    1340 For more information on this, and how to apply and follow the GNU GPL, see
    1341 <http://www.gnu.org/licenses/>.
    1342 
    1343   The GNU General Public License does not permit incorporating your program
    1344 into proprietary programs.  If your program is a subroutine library, you
    1345 may consider it more useful to permit linking proprietary applications with
    1346 the library.  If this is what you want to do, use the GNU Lesser General
    1347 Public License instead of this License.  But first, please read
    1348 <http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/why-not-lgpl.html>.
