6*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohr Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies
7*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohr of this license document, but changing it is not allowed.
8*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohr
9*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohr                            Preamble
10*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohr
11*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohr  The licenses for most software are designed to take away your
12*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohrfreedom to share and change it.  By contrast, the GNU General Public
13*1c1d842eSAndreas GohrLicense is intended to guarantee your freedom to share and change free
14*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohrsoftware--to make sure the software is free for all its users.  This
15*1c1d842eSAndreas GohrGeneral Public License applies to most of the Free Software
16*1c1d842eSAndreas GohrFoundation's software and to any other program whose authors commit to
17*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohrusing it.  (Some other Free Software Foundation software is covered by
18*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohrthe GNU Lesser General Public License instead.)  You can apply it to
19*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohryour programs, too.
20*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohr
21*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohr  When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not
22*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohrprice.  Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that you
23*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohrhave the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge for
24*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohrthis service if you wish), that you receive source code or can get it
25*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohrif you want it, that you can change the software or use pieces of it
26*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohrin new free programs; and that you know you can do these things.
27*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohr
28*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohr  To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that forbid
29*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohranyone to deny you these rights or to ask you to surrender the rights.
30*1c1d842eSAndreas GohrThese restrictions translate to certain responsibilities for you if you
31*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohrdistribute copies of the software, or if you modify it.
32*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohr
33*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohr  For example, if you distribute copies of such a program, whether
34*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohrgratis or for a fee, you must give the recipients all the rights that
35*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohryou have.  You must make sure that they, too, receive or can get the
36*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohrsource code.  And you must show them these terms so they know their
37*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohrrights.
38*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohr
39*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohr  We protect your rights with two steps: (1) copyright the software, and
40*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohr(2) offer you this license which gives you legal permission to copy,
41*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohrdistribute and/or modify the software.
42*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohr
43*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohr  Also, for each author's protection and ours, we want to make certain
44*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohrthat everyone understands that there is no warranty for this free
45*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohrsoftware.  If the software is modified by someone else and passed on, we
46*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohrwant its recipients to know that what they have is not the original, so
47*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohrthat any problems introduced by others will not reflect on the original
48*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohrauthors' reputations.
49*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohr
50*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohr  Finally, any free program is threatened constantly by software
51*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohrpatents.  We wish to avoid the danger that redistributors of a free
52*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohrprogram will individually obtain patent licenses, in effect making the
53*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohrprogram proprietary.  To prevent this, we have made it clear that any
54*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohrpatent must be licensed for everyone's free use or not licensed at all.
55*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohr
56*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohr  The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and
57*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohrmodification follow.
58*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohr
59*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohr                    GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE
60*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohr   TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION
61*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohr
62*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohr  0. This License applies to any program or other work which contains
63*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohra notice placed by the copyright holder saying it may be distributed
64*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohrunder the terms of this General Public License.  The "Program", below,
65*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohrrefers to any such program or work, and a "work based on the Program"
66*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohrmeans either the Program or any derivative work under copyright law:
67*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohrthat is to say, a work containing the Program or a portion of it,
68*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohreither verbatim or with modifications and/or translated into another
69*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohrlanguage.  (Hereinafter, translation is included without limitation in
70*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohrthe term "modification".)  Each licensee is addressed as "you".
71*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohr
72*1c1d842eSAndreas GohrActivities other than copying, distribution and modification are not
73*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohrcovered by this License; they are outside its scope.  The act of
74*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohrrunning the Program is not restricted, and the output from the Program
75*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohris covered only if its contents constitute a work based on the
76*1c1d842eSAndreas GohrProgram (independent of having been made by running the Program).
77*1c1d842eSAndreas GohrWhether that is true depends on what the Program does.
78*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohr
79*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohr  1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Program's
80*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohrsource code as you receive it, in any medium, provided that you
81*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohrconspicuously and appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate
82*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohrcopyright notice and disclaimer of warranty; keep intact all the
83*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohrnotices that refer to this License and to the absence of any warranty;
84*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohrand give any other recipients of the Program a copy of this License
85*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohralong with the Program.
86*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohr
87*1c1d842eSAndreas GohrYou may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy, and
88*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohryou may at your option offer warranty protection in exchange for a fee.
89*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohr
90*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohr  2. You may modify your copy or copies of the Program or any portion
91*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohrof it, thus forming a work based on the Program, and copy and
92*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohrdistribute such modifications or work under the terms of Section 1
93*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohrabove, provided that you also meet all of these conditions:
94*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohr
95*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohr    a) You must cause the modified files to carry prominent notices
96*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohr    stating that you changed the files and the date of any change.
97*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohr
98*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohr    b) You must cause any work that you distribute or publish, that in
99*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohr    whole or in part contains or is derived from the Program or any
100*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohr    part thereof, to be licensed as a whole at no charge to all third
101*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohr    parties under the terms of this License.
102*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohr
103*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohr    c) If the modified program normally reads commands interactively
104*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohr    when run, you must cause it, when started running for such
105*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohr    interactive use in the most ordinary way, to print or display an
106*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohr    announcement including an appropriate copyright notice and a
107*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohr    notice that there is no warranty (or else, saying that you provide
108*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohr    a warranty) and that users may redistribute the program under
109*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohr    these conditions, and telling the user how to view a copy of this
110*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohr    License.  (Exception: if the Program itself is interactive but
111*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohr    does not normally print such an announcement, your work based on
112*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohr    the Program is not required to print an announcement.)
113*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohr
114*1c1d842eSAndreas GohrThese requirements apply to the modified work as a whole.  If
115*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohridentifiable sections of that work are not derived from the Program,
116*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohrand can be reasonably considered independent and separate works in
117*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohrthemselves, then this License, and its terms, do not apply to those
118*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohrsections when you distribute them as separate works.  But when you
119*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohrdistribute the same sections as part of a whole which is a work based
120*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohron the Program, the distribution of the whole must be on the terms of
121*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohrthis License, whose permissions for other licensees extend to the
122*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohrentire whole, and thus to each and every part regardless of who wrote it.
123*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohr
124*1c1d842eSAndreas GohrThus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest
125*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohryour rights to work written entirely by you; rather, the intent is to
126*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohrexercise the right to control the distribution of derivative or
127*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohrcollective works based on the Program.
128*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohr
129*1c1d842eSAndreas GohrIn addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the Program
130*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohrwith the Program (or with a work based on the Program) on a volume of
131*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohra storage or distribution medium does not bring the other work under
132*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohrthe scope of this License.
133*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohr
134*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohr  3. You may copy and distribute the Program (or a work based on it,
135*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohrunder Section 2) in object code or executable form under the terms of
136*1c1d842eSAndreas GohrSections 1 and 2 above provided that you also do one of the following:
137*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohr
138*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohr    a) Accompany it with the complete corresponding machine-readable
139*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohr    source code, which must be distributed under the terms of Sections
140*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohr    1 and 2 above on a medium customarily used for software interchange; or,
141*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohr
142*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohr    b) Accompany it with a written offer, valid for at least three
143*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohr    years, to give any third party, for a charge no more than your
144*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohr    cost of physically performing source distribution, a complete
145*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohr    machine-readable copy of the corresponding source code, to be
146*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohr    distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium
147*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohr    customarily used for software interchange; or,
148*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohr
149*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohr    c) Accompany it with the information you received as to the offer
150*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohr    to distribute corresponding source code.  (This alternative is
151*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohr    allowed only for noncommercial distribution and only if you
152*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohr    received the program in object code or executable form with such
153*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohr    an offer, in accord with Subsection b above.)
154*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohr
155*1c1d842eSAndreas GohrThe source code for a work means the preferred form of the work for
156*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohrmaking modifications to it.  For an executable work, complete source
157*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohrcode means all the source code for all modules it contains, plus any
158*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohrassociated interface definition files, plus the scripts used to
159*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohrcontrol compilation and installation of the executable.  However, as a
160*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohrspecial exception, the source code distributed need not include
161*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohranything that is normally distributed (in either source or binary
162*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohrform) with the major components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of the
163*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohroperating system on which the executable runs, unless that component
164*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohritself accompanies the executable.
165*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohr
166*1c1d842eSAndreas GohrIf distribution of executable or object code is made by offering
167*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohraccess to copy from a designated place, then offering equivalent
168*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohraccess to copy the source code from the same place counts as
169*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohrdistribution of the source code, even though third parties are not
170*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohrcompelled to copy the source along with the object code.
171*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohr
172*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohr  4. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the Program
173*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohrexcept as expressly provided under this License.  Any attempt
174*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohrotherwise to copy, modify, sublicense or distribute the Program is
175*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohrvoid, and will automatically terminate your rights under this License.
176*1c1d842eSAndreas GohrHowever, parties who have received copies, or rights, from you under
177*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohrthis License will not have their licenses terminated so long as such
178*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohrparties remain in full compliance.
179*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohr
180*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohr  5. You are not required to accept this License, since you have not
181*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohrsigned it.  However, nothing else grants you permission to modify or
182*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohrdistribute the Program or its derivative works.  These actions are
183*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohrprohibited by law if you do not accept this License.  Therefore, by
184*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohrmodifying or distributing the Program (or any work based on the
185*1c1d842eSAndreas GohrProgram), you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so, and
186*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohrall its terms and conditions for copying, distributing or modifying
187*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohrthe Program or works based on it.
188*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohr
189*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohr  6. Each time you redistribute the Program (or any work based on the
190*1c1d842eSAndreas GohrProgram), the recipient automatically receives a license from the
191*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohroriginal licensor to copy, distribute or modify the Program subject to
192*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohrthese terms and conditions.  You may not impose any further
193*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohrrestrictions on the recipients' exercise of the rights granted herein.
194*1c1d842eSAndreas GohrYou are not responsible for enforcing compliance by third parties to
195*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohrthis License.
196*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohr
197*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohr  7. If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent
198*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohrinfringement or for any other reason (not limited to patent issues),
199*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohrconditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or
200*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohrotherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not
201*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohrexcuse you from the conditions of this License.  If you cannot
202*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohrdistribute so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this
203*1c1d842eSAndreas GohrLicense and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you
204*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohrmay not distribute the Program at all.  For example, if a patent
205*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohrlicense would not permit royalty-free redistribution of the Program by
206*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohrall those who receive copies directly or indirectly through you, then
207*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohrthe only way you could satisfy both it and this License would be to
208*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohrrefrain entirely from distribution of the Program.
209*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohr
210*1c1d842eSAndreas GohrIf any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable under
211*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohrany particular circumstance, the balance of the section is intended to
212*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohrapply and the section as a whole is intended to apply in other
213*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohrcircumstances.
214*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohr
215*1c1d842eSAndreas GohrIt is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe any
216*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohrpatents or other property right claims or to contest validity of any
217*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohrsuch claims; this section has the sole purpose of protecting the
218*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohrintegrity of the free software distribution system, which is
219*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohrimplemented by public license practices.  Many people have made
220*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohrgenerous contributions to the wide range of software distributed
221*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohrthrough that system in reliance on consistent application of that
222*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohrsystem; it is up to the author/donor to decide if he or she is willing
223*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohrto distribute software through any other system and a licensee cannot
224*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohrimpose that choice.
225*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohr
226*1c1d842eSAndreas GohrThis section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is believed to
227*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohrbe a consequence of the rest of this License.
228*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohr
229*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohr  8. If the distribution and/or use of the Program is restricted in
230*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohrcertain countries either by patents or by copyrighted interfaces, the
231*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohroriginal copyright holder who places the Program under this License
232*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohrmay add an explicit geographical distribution limitation excluding
233*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohrthose countries, so that distribution is permitted only in or among
234*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohrcountries not thus excluded.  In such case, this License incorporates
235*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohrthe limitation as if written in the body of this License.
236*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohr
237*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohr  9. The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions
238*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohrof the General Public License from time to time.  Such new versions will
239*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohrbe similar in spirit to the present version, but may differ in detail to
240*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohraddress new problems or concerns.
241*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohr
242*1c1d842eSAndreas GohrEach version is given a distinguishing version number.  If the Program
243*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohrspecifies a version number of this License which applies to it and "any
244*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohrlater version", you have the option of following the terms and conditions
245*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohreither of that version or of any later version published by the Free
246*1c1d842eSAndreas GohrSoftware Foundation.  If the Program does not specify a version number of
247*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohrthis License, you may choose any version ever published by the Free Software
248*1c1d842eSAndreas GohrFoundation.
249*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohr
250*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohr  10. If you wish to incorporate parts of the Program into other free
251*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohrprograms whose distribution conditions are different, write to the author
252*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohrto ask for permission.  For software which is copyrighted by the Free
253*1c1d842eSAndreas GohrSoftware Foundation, write to the Free Software Foundation; we sometimes
254*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohrmake exceptions for this.  Our decision will be guided by the two goals
255*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohrof preserving the free status of all derivatives of our free software and
256*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohrof promoting the sharing and reuse of software generally.
257*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohr
258*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohr                            NO WARRANTY
259*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohr
260*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohr  11. BECAUSE THE PROGRAM IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE, THERE IS NO WARRANTY
261*1c1d842eSAndreas GohrFOR THE PROGRAM, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW.  EXCEPT WHEN
262*1c1d842eSAndreas GohrOTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER PARTIES
263*1c1d842eSAndreas GohrPROVIDE THE PROGRAM "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED
264*1c1d842eSAndreas GohrOR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF
265*1c1d842eSAndreas GohrMERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.  THE ENTIRE RISK AS
266*1c1d842eSAndreas GohrTO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE PROGRAM IS WITH YOU.  SHOULD THE
267*1c1d842eSAndreas GohrPROGRAM PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE COST OF ALL NECESSARY SERVICING,
268*1c1d842eSAndreas GohrREPAIR OR CORRECTION.
269*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohr

282*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohr            How to Apply These Terms to Your New Programs
283*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohr
284*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohr  If you develop a new program, and you want it to be of the greatest
285*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohrpossible use to the public, the best way to achieve this is to make it
286*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohrfree software which everyone can redistribute and change under these terms.
287*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohr
288*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohr  To do so, attach the following notices to the program.  It is safest
289*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohrto attach them to the start of each source file to most effectively
290*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohrconvey the exclusion of warranty; and each file should have at least
291*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohrthe "copyright" line and a pointer to where the full notice is found.
292*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohr
293*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohr    <one line to give the program's name and a brief idea of what it does.>

309*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohr
310*1c1d842eSAndreas GohrAlso add information on how to contact you by electronic and paper mail.
311*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohr
312*1c1d842eSAndreas GohrIf the program is interactive, make it output a short notice like this
313*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohrwhen it starts in an interactive mode:
314*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohr
315*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohr    Gnomovision version 69, Copyright (C) year name of author
316*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohr    Gnomovision comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY; for details type `show w'.
317*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohr    This is free software, and you are welcome to redistribute it
318*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohr    under certain conditions; type `show c' for details.
319*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohr
320*1c1d842eSAndreas GohrThe hypothetical commands `show w' and `show c' should show the appropriate
321*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohrparts of the General Public License.  Of course, the commands you use may
322*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohrbe called something other than `show w' and `show c'; they could even be
323*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohrmouse-clicks or menu items--whatever suits your program.
324*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohr
325*1c1d842eSAndreas GohrYou should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer) or your
326*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohrschool, if any, to sign a "copyright disclaimer" for the program, if
327*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohrnecessary.  Here is a sample; alter the names:
328*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohr
329*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohr  Yoyodyne, Inc., hereby disclaims all copyright interest in the program

335*1c1d842eSAndreas GohrThis General Public License does not permit incorporating your program into
336*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohrproprietary programs.  If your program is a subroutine library, you may
337*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohrconsider it more useful to permit linking proprietary applications with the
338*1c1d842eSAndreas Gohrlibrary.  If this is what you want to do, use the GNU Lesser General
339*1c1d842eSAndreas GohrPublic License instead of this License.
