     2                         Version 3, 19 November 2007
     3  
     4   Copyright (C) 2007 Free Software Foundation, Inc. <https://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 <https://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.
