+      The licenses for most software are designed to take away your
+      freedom to share and change it. By contrast, the GNU General Public
+      License is intended to guarantee your freedom to share and change
+      free software - to make sure the software is free for all its users.
+      This General Public License applies to most of the Free Software
+      Foundation's software and to any other program whose authors commit
+      to using it. (Some other Free Software Foundation software is covered
+      by the GNU Library General Public License instead.) You can apply it
+      to your programs, too.
+    </para>
+
+    <para>
+      When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not price.
+      Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that you have the
+      freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge for this
+      service if you wish), that you receive source code or can get it if you
+      want it, that you can change the software or use pieces of it in new free
+      programs; and that you know you can do these things.
+    </para>
+
+    <para>
+      To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that forbid anyone
+      to deny you these rights or to ask you to surrender the rights. These
+      restrictions translate to certain responsibilities for you if you distribute
+      copies of the software, or if you modify it.
+    </para>
+
+    <para>
+      For example, if you distribute copies of such a program, whether gratis or
+      for a fee, you must give the recipients all the rights that you have. You
+      must make sure that they, too, receive or can get the source code. And you
+      must show them these terms so they know their rights.
+    </para>
+
+    <para>
+      We protect your rights with two steps:
+
+      <orderedlist numeration="arabic">
+	<listitem>
+	  <para>
+	    copyright the software, and
+	  </para>
+	</listitem>
+	<listitem>
+	  <para>
+	    offer you this license which gives you legal permission to copy,
+	    distribute and/or modify the software.
+	  </para>
+	</listitem>
+      </orderedlist>
+    </para>
+
+    <para>
+      Also, for each author's protection and ours, we want to make certain that
+      everyone understands that there is no warranty for this free software. If
+      the software is modified by someone else and passed on, we want its
+      recipients to know that what they have is not the original, so that any
+      problems introduced by others will not reflect on the original authors'
+      reputations.
+    </para>
+
+    <para>
+      Finally, any free program is threatened constantly by software patents.
+      We wish to avoid the danger that redistributors of a free program will
+      individually obtain patent licenses, in effect making the program
+      proprietary. To prevent this, we have made it clear that any patent must be
+      licensed for everyone's free use or not licensed at all.

+	This License applies to any program or other work which contains a notice
+	placed by the copyright holder saying it may be distributed under the terms
+	of this General Public License. The <quote>Program</quote>, below, refers to any such
+	program or work, and a <quote>work based on the Program</quote> means either
+	the Program or any derivative work under copyright law: that is to say, a
+	work containing the Program or a portion of it, either verbatim or with
+	modifications and/or translated into another language. (Hereinafter, translation
+	is included without limitation in the term <quote>modification</quote>.) Each
+	licensee is addressed as <quote>you</quote>.

+
+      <para>
+	Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are not covered by
+	this License; they are outside its scope. The act of running the Program is not
+	restricted, and the output from the Program is covered only if its contents
+	constitute a work based on the Program (independent of having been made by running
+	the Program). Whether that is true depends on what the Program does.

+	warranty; and give any other recipients of the Program a copy of this License
+	along with the Program.

+	      If the modified program normally reads commands interactively when run, you
+	      must cause it, when started running for such interactive use in the most
+	      ordinary way, to print or display an announcement including an appropriate
+	      copyright notice and a notice that there is no warranty (or else, saying
+	      that you provide a warranty) and that users may redistribute the program
+	      under these conditions, and telling the user how to view a copy of this
+	      License.
+
+	      <note>
+		<title>Exception:</title>
+		<para>
+		  If the Program itself is interactive but does not normally print such an
+		  announcement, your work based on the Program is not required to print an
+		  announcement.

+	These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole. If identifiable sections
+	of that work are not derived from the Program, and can be reasonably considered
+	independent and separate works in themselves, then this License, and its terms,
+	do not apply to those sections when you distribute them as separate works. But when
+	you distribute the same sections as part of a whole which is a work based on the
+	Program, the distribution of the whole must be on the terms of this License, whose
+	permissions for other licensees extend to the entire whole, and thus to each and
+	every part regardless of who wrote it.
+      </para>
+
+      <para>
+	Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest your rights
+	to work written entirely by you; rather, the intent is to exercise the right to control
+	the distribution of derivative or collective works based on the Program.
+      </para>
+
+      <para>
+	In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the Program with the Program
+	(or with a work based on the Program) on a volume of a storage or distribution medium

+	your obligations under this License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence
+	you may not distribute the Program at all. For example, if a patent license would not permit
