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