LICENSE
··· 1 - GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE 2 - Version 3, 29 June 2007 1 + GNU AFFERO GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE 2 + Version 3, 19 November 2007 3 3 4 4 Copyright (C) 2007 Free Software Foundation, Inc. <https://fsf.org/> 5 5 Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies ··· 7 7 8 8 Preamble 9 9 10 - The GNU General Public License is a free, copyleft license for 11 - software and other kinds of works. 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. 12 13 13 14 The licenses for most software and other practical works are designed 14 15 to take away your freedom to share and change the works. By contrast, 15 - the GNU General Public License is intended to guarantee your freedom to 16 + our General Public Licenses are intended to guarantee your freedom to 16 17 share and change all versions of a program--to make sure it remains free 17 - software for all its users. We, the Free Software Foundation, use the 18 - GNU General Public License for most of our software; it applies also to 19 - any other work released this way by its authors. You can apply it to 20 - your programs, too. 18 + software for all its users. 21 19 22 20 When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not 23 21 price. Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that you ··· 26 24 want it, that you can change the software or use pieces of it in new 27 25 free programs, and that you know you can do these things. 28 26 29 - To protect your rights, we need to prevent others from denying you 30 - these rights or asking you to surrender the rights. Therefore, you have 31 - certain responsibilities if you distribute copies of the software, or if 32 - you modify it: responsibilities to respect the freedom of others. 33 - 34 - For example, if you distribute copies of such a program, whether 35 - gratis or for a fee, you must pass on to the recipients the same 36 - freedoms that you received. You must make sure that they, too, receive 37 - or can get the source code. And you must show them these terms so they 38 - know their rights. 39 - 40 - Developers that use the GNU GPL protect your rights with two steps: 41 - (1) assert copyright on the software, and (2) offer you this License 42 - giving you legal permission to copy, distribute and/or modify it. 43 - 44 - For the developers' and authors' protection, the GPL clearly explains 45 - that there is no warranty for this free software. For both users' and 46 - authors' sake, the GPL requires that modified versions be marked as 47 - changed, so that their problems will not be attributed erroneously to 48 - authors of previous versions. 49 - 50 - Some devices are designed to deny users access to install or run 51 - modified versions of the software inside them, although the manufacturer 52 - can do so. This is fundamentally incompatible with the aim of 53 - protecting users' freedom to change the software. The systematic 54 - pattern of such abuse occurs in the area of products for individuals to 55 - use, which is precisely where it is most unacceptable. Therefore, we 56 - have designed this version of the GPL to prohibit the practice for those 57 - products. If such problems arise substantially in other domains, we 58 - stand ready to extend this provision to those domains in future versions 59 - of the GPL, as needed to protect the freedom of users. 60 - 61 - Finally, every program is threatened constantly by software patents. 62 - States should not allow patents to restrict development and use of 63 - software on general-purpose computers, but in those that do, we wish to 64 - avoid the special danger that patents applied to a free program could 65 - make it effectively proprietary. To prevent this, the GPL assures that 66 - patents cannot be used to render the program non-free. 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. 67 55 68 56 The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and 69 57 modification follow. ··· 72 60 73 61 0. Definitions. 74 62 75 - "This License" refers to version 3 of the GNU General Public License. 63 + "This License" refers to version 3 of the GNU Affero General Public License. 76 64 77 65 "Copyright" also means copyright-like laws that apply to other kinds of 78 66 works, such as semiconductor masks. ··· 549 537 the Program, the only way you could satisfy both those terms and this 550 538 License would be to refrain entirely from conveying the Program. 551 539 552 - 13. Use with the GNU Affero General Public License. 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. 553 552 554 553 Notwithstanding any other provision of this License, you have 555 554 permission to link or combine any covered work with a work licensed 556 - under version 3 of the GNU Affero General Public License into a single 555 + under version 3 of the GNU General Public License into a single 557 556 combined work, and to convey the resulting work. The terms of this 558 557 License will continue to apply to the part which is the covered work, 559 - but the special requirements of the GNU Affero General Public License, 560 - section 13, concerning interaction through a network will apply to the 561 - combination as such. 558 + but the work with which it is combined will remain governed by version 559 + 3 of the GNU General Public License. 562 560 563 561 14. Revised Versions of this License. 564 562 565 563 The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions of 566 - the GNU General Public License from time to time. Such new versions will 567 - be similar in spirit to the present version, but may differ in detail to 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 568 566 address new problems or concerns. 569 567 570 568 Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the 571 - Program specifies that a certain numbered version of the GNU General 569 + Program specifies that a certain numbered version of the GNU Affero General 572 570 Public License "or any later version" applies to it, you have the 573 571 option of following the terms and conditions either of that numbered 574 572 version or of any later version published by the Free Software 575 573 Foundation. If the Program does not specify a version number of the 576 - GNU General Public License, you may choose any version ever published 574 + GNU Affero General Public License, you may choose any version ever published 577 575 by the Free Software Foundation. 578 576 579 577 If the Program specifies that a proxy can decide which future 580 - versions of the GNU General Public License can be used, that proxy's 578 + versions of the GNU Affero General Public License can be used, that proxy's 581 579 public statement of acceptance of a version permanently authorizes you 582 580 to choose that version for the Program. 583 581 ··· 635 633 Copyright (C) <year> <name of author> 636 634 637 635 This program is free software: you can redistribute it and/or modify 638 - it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by 639 - the Free Software Foundation, either version 3 of the License, or 636 + it under the terms of the GNU Affero General Public License as published 637 + by the Free Software Foundation, either version 3 of the License, or 640 638 (at your option) any later version. 641 639 642 640 This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful, 643 641 but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of 644 642 MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. See the 645 - GNU General Public License for more details. 643 + GNU Affero General Public License for more details. 646 644 647 - You should have received a copy of the GNU General Public License 645 + You should have received a copy of the GNU Affero General Public License 648 646 along with this program. If not, see <https://www.gnu.org/licenses/>. 649 647 650 648 Also add information on how to contact you by electronic and paper mail. 651 649 652 - If the program does terminal interaction, make it output a short 653 - notice like this when it starts in an interactive mode: 654 - 655 - <program> Copyright (C) <year> <name of author> 656 - This program comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY; for details type `show w'. 657 - This is free software, and you are welcome to redistribute it 658 - under certain conditions; type `show c' for details. 659 - 660 - The hypothetical commands `show w' and `show c' should show the appropriate 661 - parts of the General Public License. Of course, your program's commands 662 - might be different; for a GUI interface, you would use an "about box". 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. 663 657 664 658 You should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer) or school, 665 659 if any, to sign a "copyright disclaimer" for the program, if necessary. 666 - For more information on this, and how to apply and follow the GNU GPL, see 660 + For more information on this, and how to apply and follow the GNU AGPL, see 667 661 <https://www.gnu.org/licenses/>. 668 - 669 - The GNU General Public License does not permit incorporating your program 670 - into proprietary programs. If your program is a subroutine library, you 671 - may consider it more useful to permit linking proprietary applications with 672 - the library. If this is what you want to do, use the GNU Lesser General 673 - Public License instead of this License. But first, please read 674 - <https://www.gnu.org/licenses/why-not-lgpl.html>.
