|
19 |
The Mini-XML library and included programs are provided under the |
20 |
terms of the GNU Library General Public License (LGPL) with the |
21 |
following exceptions: |
22 |
|
23 |
1. Static linking of applications to the Mini-XML library |
24 |
does not constitute a derivative work and does not require |
25 |
the author to provide source code for the application, use |
26 |
the shared Mini-XML libraries, or link their applications |
27 |
against a user-supplied version of Mini-XML. |
28 |
|
29 |
If you link the application to a modified version of |
30 |
Mini-XML, then the changes to Mini-XML must be provided |
31 |
under the terms of the LGPL in sections 1, 2, and 4. |
32 |
|
33 |
2. You do not have to provide a copy of the Mini-XML license |
34 |
with programs that are linked to the Mini-XML library, nor |
35 |
do you have to identify the Mini-XML license in your |
36 |
program or documentation as required by section 6 of the |
37 |
LGPL. |

GNU LIBRARY GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE |

Version 2, June 1991 |
42 |
|
43 |
Copyright (C) 1991 Free Software Foundation, Inc. |
44 |
59 Temple Place, Suite 330, Boston, MA 02111-1307 USA |
45 |
|
46 |
Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies |
47 |
of this license document, but changing it is not allowed. |

[This is the first released version of the library GPL. It is |
50 |
numbered 2 because it goes with version 2 of the ordinary GPL.] |
51 |
|
52 |
Preamble |
53 |
|
54 |
The licenses for most software are designed to take away your |
55 |
freedom to share and change it. By contrast, the GNU General Public |
56 |
Licenses are intended to guarantee your freedom to share and change |
57 |
free software--to make sure the software is free for all its users. |
58 |
|
59 |
This license, the Library General Public License, applies to some |
60 |
specially designated Free Software Foundation software, and to any |
61 |
other libraries whose authors decide to use it. You can use it for |
62 |
your libraries, too. |
63 |
|
64 |
When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not |
65 |
price. Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that you |
66 |
have the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge for |
67 |
this service if you wish), that you receive source code or can get it |
68 |
if you want it, that you can change the software or use pieces of it |
69 |
in new free programs; and that you know you can do these things. |
70 |
|
71 |
To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that forbid |
72 |
anyone to deny you these rights or to ask you to surrender the rights. |
73 |
These restrictions translate to certain responsibilities for you if |
74 |
you distribute copies of the library, or if you modify it. |
75 |
|
76 |
For example, if you distribute copies of the library, whether gratis |
77 |
or for a fee, you must give the recipients all the rights that we gave |
78 |
you. You must make sure that they, too, receive or can get the source |
79 |
code. If you link a program with the library, you must provide |
80 |
complete object files to the recipients so that they can relink them |
81 |
with the library, after making changes to the library and recompiling |
82 |
it. And you must show them these terms so they know their rights. |
83 |
|
84 |
Our method of protecting your rights has two steps: (1) copyright |
85 |
the library, and (2) offer you this license which gives you legal |
86 |
permission to copy, distribute and/or modify the library. |
87 |
|
88 |
Also, for each distributor's protection, we want to make certain |
89 |
that everyone understands that there is no warranty for this free |
90 |
library. If the library is modified by someone else and passed on, we |
91 |
want its recipients to know that what they have is not the original |
92 |
version, so that any problems introduced by others will not reflect on |
93 |
the original authors' reputations. |
94 |
|
95 |
Finally, any free program is threatened constantly by software |
96 |
patents. We wish to avoid the danger that companies distributing free |
97 |
software will individually obtain patent licenses, thus in effect |
98 |
transforming the program into proprietary software. To prevent this, |
99 |
we have made it clear that any patent must be licensed for everyone's |
100 |
free use or not licensed at all. |
101 |
|
102 |
Most GNU software, including some libraries, is covered by the ordinary |
103 |
GNU General Public License, which was designed for utility programs. This |
104 |
license, the GNU Library General Public License, applies to certain |
105 |
designated libraries. This license is quite different from the ordinary |
106 |
one; be sure to read it in full, and don't assume that anything in it is |
107 |
the same as in the ordinary license. |
108 |
|
109 |
The reason we have a separate public license for some libraries is that |
110 |
they blur the distinction we usually make between modifying or adding to a |
111 |
program and simply using it. Linking a program with a library, without |
112 |
changing the library, is in some sense simply using the library, and is |
113 |
analogous to running a utility program or application program. However, in |
114 |
a textual and legal sense, the linked executable is a combined work, a |
115 |
derivative of the original library, and the ordinary General Public License |
116 |
treats it as such. |
117 |
|
118 |
Because of this blurred distinction, using the ordinary General |
119 |
Public License for libraries did not effectively promote software |
120 |
sharing, because most developers did not use the libraries. We |
121 |
concluded that weaker conditions might promote sharing better. |
122 |
|
123 |
However, unrestricted linking of non-free programs would deprive the |
124 |
users of those programs of all benefit from the free status of the |
125 |
libraries themselves. This Library General Public License is intended to |
126 |
permit developers of non-free programs to use free libraries, while |
127 |
preserving your freedom as a user of such programs to change the free |
128 |
libraries that are incorporated in them. (We have not seen how to achieve |
129 |
this as regards changes in header files, but we have achieved it as regards |
130 |
changes in the actual functions of the Library.) The hope is that this |
131 |
will lead to faster development of free libraries. |
132 |
|
133 |
The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and |
134 |
modification follow. Pay close attention to the difference between a |
135 |
"work based on the library" and a "work that uses the library". The |
136 |
former contains code derived from the library, while the latter only |
137 |
works together with the library. |
138 |
|
139 |
Note that it is possible for a library to be covered by the ordinary |
140 |
General Public License rather than by this special one. |
141 |
|
142 |
GNU LIBRARY GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE |
143 |
TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION |
144 |
|
145 |
0. This License Agreement applies to any software library which |
146 |
contains a notice placed by the copyright holder or other authorized |
147 |
party saying it may be distributed under the terms of this Library |
148 |
General Public License (also called "this License"). Each licensee is |
149 |
addressed as "you". |
150 |
|
151 |
A "library" means a collection of software functions and/or data |
152 |
prepared so as to be conveniently linked with application programs |
153 |
(which use some of those functions and data) to form executables. |
154 |
|
155 |
The "Library", below, refers to any such software library or work |
156 |
which has been distributed under these terms. A "work based on the |
157 |
Library" means either the Library or any derivative work under |
158 |
copyright law: that is to say, a work containing the Library or a |
159 |
portion of it, either verbatim or with modifications and/or translated |
160 |
straightforwardly into another language. (Hereinafter, translation is |
161 |
included without limitation in the term "modification".) |
162 |
|
163 |
"Source code" for a work means the preferred form of the work for |
164 |
making modifications to it. For a library, complete source code means |
165 |
all the source code for all modules it contains, plus any associated |
166 |
interface definition files, plus the scripts used to control compilation |
167 |
and installation of the library. |
168 |
|
169 |
Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are not |
170 |
covered by this License; they are outside its scope. The act of |
171 |
running a program using the Library is not restricted, and output from |
172 |
such a program is covered only if its contents constitute a work based |
173 |
on the Library (independent of the use of the Library in a tool for |
174 |
writing it). Whether that is true depends on what the Library does |
175 |
and what the program that uses the Library does. |
176 |
|
177 |
1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Library's |
178 |
complete source code as you receive it, in any medium, provided that |
179 |
you conspicuously and appropriately publish on each copy an |
180 |
appropriate copyright notice and disclaimer of warranty; keep intact |
181 |
all the notices that refer to this License and to the absence of any |
182 |
warranty; and distribute a copy of this License along with the |
183 |
Library. |
184 |
|
185 |
You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy, |
186 |
and you may at your option offer warranty protection in exchange for a |
187 |
fee. |
188 |
|
189 |
2. You may modify your copy or copies of the Library or any portion |
190 |
of it, thus forming a work based on the Library, and copy and |
191 |
distribute such modifications or work under the terms of Section 1 |
192 |
above, provided that you also meet all of these conditions: |
193 |
|
194 |
a) The modified work must itself be a software library. |
195 |
|
196 |
b) You must cause the files modified to carry prominent notices |
197 |
stating that you changed the files and the date of any change. |
198 |
|
199 |
c) You must cause the whole of the work to be licensed at no |
200 |
charge to all third parties under the terms of this License. |
201 |
|
202 |
d) If a facility in the modified Library refers to a function or a |
203 |
table of data to be supplied by an application program that uses |
204 |
the facility, other than as an argument passed when the facility |
205 |
is invoked, then you must make a good faith effort to ensure that, |
206 |
in the event an application does not supply such function or |
207 |
table, the facility still operates, and performs whatever part of |
208 |
its purpose remains meaningful. |
209 |
|
210 |
(For example, a function in a library to compute square roots has |
211 |
a purpose that is entirely well-defined independent of the |
212 |
application. Therefore, Subsection 2d requires that any |
213 |
application-supplied function or table used by this function must |
214 |
be optional: if the application does not supply it, the square |
215 |
root function must still compute square roots.) |
216 |
|
217 |
These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole. If |
218 |
identifiable sections of that work are not derived from the Library, |
219 |
and can be reasonably considered independent and separate works in |
220 |
themselves, then this License, and its terms, do not apply to those |
221 |
sections when you distribute them as separate works. But when you |
222 |
distribute the same sections as part of a whole which is a work based |
223 |
on the Library, the distribution of the whole must be on the terms of |
224 |
this License, whose permissions for other licensees extend to the |
225 |
entire whole, and thus to each and every part regardless of who wrote |
226 |
it. |
227 |
|
228 |
Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest |
229 |
your rights to work written entirely by you; rather, the intent is to |
230 |
exercise the right to control the distribution of derivative or |
231 |
collective works based on the Library. |
232 |
|
233 |
In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the Library |
234 |
with the Library (or with a work based on the Library) on a volume of |
235 |
a storage or distribution medium does not bring the other work under |
236 |
the scope of this License. |
237 |
|
238 |
3. You may opt to apply the terms of the ordinary GNU General Public |
239 |
License instead of this License to a given copy of the Library. To do |
240 |
this, you must alter all the notices that refer to this License, so |
241 |
that they refer to the ordinary GNU General Public License, version 2, |
242 |
instead of to this License. (If a newer version than version 2 of the |
243 |
ordinary GNU General Public License has appeared, then you can specify |
244 |
that version instead if you wish.) Do not make any other change in |
245 |
these notices. |
246 |
|
247 |
Once this change is made in a given copy, it is irreversible for |
248 |
that copy, so the ordinary GNU General Public License applies to all |
249 |
subsequent copies and derivative works made from that copy. |
250 |
|
251 |
This option is useful when you wish to copy part of the code of |
252 |
the Library into a program that is not a library. |
253 |
|
254 |
4. You may copy and distribute the Library (or a portion or |
255 |
derivative of it, under Section 2) in object code or executable form |
256 |
under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above provided that you accompany |
257 |
it with the complete corresponding machine-readable source code, which |
258 |
must be distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a |
259 |
medium customarily used for software interchange. |
260 |
|
261 |
If distribution of object code is made by offering access to copy |
262 |
from a designated place, then offering equivalent access to copy the |
263 |
source code from the same place satisfies the requirement to |
264 |
distribute the source code, even though third parties are not |
265 |
compelled to copy the source along with the object code. |
266 |
|
267 |
5. A program that contains no derivative of any portion of the |
268 |
Library, but is designed to work with the Library by being compiled or |
269 |
linked with it, is called a "work that uses the Library". Such a |
270 |
work, in isolation, is not a derivative work of the Library, and |
271 |
therefore falls outside the scope of this License. |
272 |
|
273 |
However, linking a "work that uses the Library" with the Library |
274 |
creates an executable that is a derivative of the Library (because it |
275 |
contains portions of the Library), rather than a "work that uses the |
276 |
library". The executable is therefore covered by this License. |
277 |
Section 6 states terms for distribution of such executables. |
278 |
|
279 |
When a "work that uses the Library" uses material from a header file |
280 |
that is part of the Library, the object code for the work may be a |
281 |
derivative work of the Library even though the source code is not. |
282 |
Whether this is true is especially significant if the work can be |
283 |
linked without the Library, or if the work is itself a library. The |
284 |
threshold for this to be true is not precisely defined by law. |
285 |
|
286 |
If such an object file uses only numerical parameters, data |
287 |
structure layouts and accessors, and small macros and small inline |
288 |
functions (ten lines or less in length), then the use of the object |
289 |
file is unrestricted, regardless of whether it is legally a derivative |
290 |
work. (Executables containing this object code plus portions of the |
291 |
Library will still fall under Section 6.) |
292 |
|
293 |
Otherwise, if the work is a derivative of the Library, you may |
294 |
distribute the object code for the work under the terms of Section 6. |
295 |
Any executables containing that work also fall under Section 6, |
296 |
whether or not they are linked directly with the Library itself. |
297 |
|
298 |
6. As an exception to the Sections above, you may also compile or |
299 |
link a "work that uses the Library" with the Library to produce a |
300 |
work containing portions of the Library, and distribute that work |
301 |
under terms of your choice, provided that the terms permit |
302 |
modification of the work for the customer's own use and reverse |
303 |
engineering for debugging such modifications. |
304 |
|
305 |
You must give prominent notice with each copy of the work that the |
306 |
Library is used in it and that the Library and its use are covered by |
307 |
this License. You must supply a copy of this License. If the work |
308 |
during execution displays copyright notices, you must include the |
309 |
copyright notice for the Library among them, as well as a reference |
310 |
directing the user to the copy of this License. Also, you must do one |
311 |
of these things: |
312 |
|
313 |
a) Accompany the work with the complete corresponding |
314 |
machine-readable source code for the Library including whatever |
315 |
changes were used in the work (which must be distributed under |
316 |
Sections 1 and 2 above); and, if the work is an executable linked |
317 |
with the Library, with the complete machine-readable "work that |
318 |
uses the Library", as object code and/or source code, so that the |
319 |
user can modify the Library and then relink to produce a modified |
320 |
executable containing the modified Library. (It is understood |
321 |
that the user who changes the contents of definitions files in the |
322 |
Library will not necessarily be able to recompile the application |
323 |
to use the modified definitions.) |
324 |
|
325 |
b) Accompany the work with a written offer, valid for at |
326 |
least three years, to give the same user the materials |
327 |
specified in Subsection 6a, above, for a charge no more |
328 |
than the cost of performing this distribution. |
329 |
|
330 |
c) If distribution of the work is made by offering access to copy |
331 |
from a designated place, offer equivalent access to copy the above |
332 |
specified materials from the same place. |
333 |
|
334 |
d) Verify that the user has already received a copy of these |
335 |
materials or that you have already sent this user a copy. |
336 |
|
337 |
For an executable, the required form of the "work that uses the |
338 |
Library" must include any data and utility programs needed for |
339 |
reproducing the executable from it. However, as a special exception, |
340 |
the source code distributed need not include anything that is normally |
341 |
distributed (in either source or binary form) with the major |
342 |
components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of the operating system on |
343 |
which the executable runs, unless that component itself accompanies |
344 |
the executable. |
345 |
|
346 |
It may happen that this requirement contradicts the license |
347 |
restrictions of other proprietary libraries that do not normally |
348 |
accompany the operating system. Such a contradiction means you cannot |
349 |
use both them and the Library together in an executable that you |
350 |
distribute. |
351 |
|
352 |
7. You may place library facilities that are a work based on the |
353 |
Library side-by-side in a single library together with other library |
354 |
facilities not covered by this License, and distribute such a combined |
355 |
library, provided that the separate distribution of the work based on |
356 |
the Library and of the other library facilities is otherwise |
357 |
permitted, and provided that you do these two things: |
358 |
|
359 |
a) Accompany the combined library with a copy of the same work |
360 |
based on the Library, uncombined with any other library |
361 |
facilities. This must be distributed under the terms of the |
362 |
Sections above. |
363 |
|
364 |
b) Give prominent notice with the combined library of the fact |
365 |
that part of it is a work based on the Library, and explaining |
366 |
where to find the accompanying uncombined form of the same work. |
367 |
|
368 |
8. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, link with, or distribute |
369 |
the Library except as expressly provided under this License. Any |
370 |
attempt otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense, link with, or |
371 |
distribute the Library is void, and will automatically terminate your |
372 |
rights under this License. However, parties who have received copies, |
373 |
or rights, from you under this License will not have their licenses |
374 |
terminated so long as such parties remain in full compliance. |
375 |
|
376 |
9. You are not required to accept this License, since you have not |
377 |
signed it. However, nothing else grants you permission to modify or |
378 |
distribute the Library or its derivative works. These actions are |
379 |
prohibited by law if you do not accept this License. Therefore, by |
380 |
modifying or distributing the Library (or any work based on the |
381 |
Library), you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so, and |
382 |
all its terms and conditions for copying, distributing or modifying |
383 |
the Library or works based on it. |
384 |
|
385 |
10. Each time you redistribute the Library (or any work based on the |
386 |
Library), the recipient automatically receives a license from the |
387 |
original licensor to copy, distribute, link with or modify the Library |
388 |
subject to these terms and conditions. You may not impose any further |
389 |
restrictions on the recipients' exercise of the rights granted herein. |
390 |
You are not responsible for enforcing compliance by third parties to |
391 |
this License. |
392 |
|
393 |
11. If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent |
394 |
infringement or for any other reason (not limited to patent issues), |
395 |
conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or |
396 |
otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not |
397 |
excuse you from the conditions of this License. If you cannot |
398 |
distribute so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this |
399 |
License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you |
400 |
may not distribute the Library at all. For example, if a patent |
401 |
license would not permit royalty-free redistribution of the Library by |
402 |
all those who receive copies directly or indirectly through you, then |
403 |
the only way you could satisfy both it and this License would be to |
404 |
refrain entirely from distribution of the Library. |
405 |
|
406 |
If any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable under any |
407 |
particular circumstance, the balance of the section is intended to apply, |
408 |
and the section as a whole is intended to apply in other circumstances. |
409 |
|
410 |
It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe any |
411 |
patents or other property right claims or to contest validity of any |
412 |
such claims; this section has the sole purpose of protecting the |
413 |
integrity of the free software distribution system which is |
414 |
implemented by public license practices. Many people have made |
415 |
generous contributions to the wide range of software distributed |
416 |
through that system in reliance on consistent application of that |
417 |
system; it is up to the author/donor to decide if he or she is willing |
418 |
to distribute software through any other system and a licensee cannot |
419 |
impose that choice. |
420 |
|
421 |
This section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is believed to |
422 |
be a consequence of the rest of this License. |
423 |
|
424 |
12. If the distribution and/or use of the Library is restricted in |
425 |
certain countries either by patents or by copyrighted interfaces, the |
426 |
original copyright holder who places the Library under this License may add |
427 |
an explicit geographical distribution limitation excluding those countries, |
428 |
so that distribution is permitted only in or among countries not thus |
429 |
excluded. In such case, this License incorporates the limitation as if |
430 |
written in the body of this License. |
431 |
|
432 |
13. The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new |
433 |
versions of the Library General Public License from time to time. |
434 |
Such new versions will be similar in spirit to the present version, |
435 |
but may differ in detail to address new problems or concerns. |
436 |
|
437 |
Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the Library |
438 |
specifies a version number of this License which applies to it and |
439 |
"any later version", you have the option of following the terms and |
440 |
conditions either of that version or of any later version published by |
441 |
the Free Software Foundation. If the Library does not specify a |
442 |
license version number, you may choose any version ever published by |
443 |
the Free Software Foundation. |
444 |
|
445 |
14. If you wish to incorporate parts of the Library into other free |
446 |
programs whose distribution conditions are incompatible with these, |
447 |
write to the author to ask for permission. For software which is |
448 |
copyrighted by the Free Software Foundation, write to the Free |
449 |
Software Foundation; we sometimes make exceptions for this. Our |
450 |
decision will be guided by the two goals of preserving the free status |
451 |
of all derivatives of our free software and of promoting the sharing |
452 |
and reuse of software generally. |
453 |
|
454 |
NO WARRANTY |
455 |
|
456 |
15. BECAUSE THE LIBRARY IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE, THERE IS NO |
457 |
WARRANTY FOR THE LIBRARY, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW. |
458 |
EXCEPT WHEN OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS AND/OR |
459 |
OTHER PARTIES PROVIDE THE LIBRARY "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY |
460 |
KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE |
461 |
IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR |
462 |
PURPOSE. THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE |
463 |
LIBRARY IS WITH YOU. SHOULD THE LIBRARY PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME |
464 |
THE COST OF ALL NECESSARY SERVICING, REPAIR OR CORRECTION. |
465 |
|
466 |
16. IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN |
467 |
WRITING WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MAY MODIFY |
468 |
AND/OR REDISTRIBUTE THE LIBRARY AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU |
469 |
FOR DAMAGES, INCLUDING ANY GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR |
470 |
CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE |
471 |
LIBRARY (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF DATA OR DATA BEING |
472 |
RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY YOU OR THIRD PARTIES OR A |
473 |
FAILURE OF THE LIBRARY TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER SOFTWARE), EVEN IF |
474 |
SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH |
475 |
DAMAGES. |
476 |
|
477 |
END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS |

Appendix: How to Apply These Terms to Your New Libraries |
480 |
|
481 |
If you develop a new library, and you want it to be of the greatest |
482 |
possible use to the public, we recommend making it free software that |
483 |
everyone can redistribute and change. You can do so by permitting |
484 |
redistribution under these terms (or, alternatively, under the terms of the |
485 |
ordinary General Public License). |
486 |
|
487 |
To apply these terms, attach the following notices to the library. It is |
488 |
safest to attach them to the start of each source file to most effectively |
489 |
convey the exclusion of warranty; and each file should have at least the |
490 |
"copyright" line and a pointer to where the full notice is found. |
491 |
|
492 |
<one line to give the library's name and a brief idea of what it does.> |
493 |
Copyright (C) <year> <name of author> |
494 |
|
495 |
This library is free software; you can redistribute it and/or |
496 |
modify it under the terms of the GNU Library General Public |
497 |
License as published by the Free Software Foundation; either |
498 |
version 2 of the License, or (at your option) any later version. |
499 |
|
500 |
This library is distributed in the hope that it will be useful, |
501 |
but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of |
502 |
MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. See the GNU |
503 |
Library General Public License for more details. |
504 |
|
505 |
You should have received a copy of the GNU Library General Public |
506 |
License along with this library; if not, write to the Free |
507 |
Software Foundation, Inc., 675 Mass Ave, Cambridge, MA 02139, USA. |
508 |
|
509 |
Also add information on how to contact you by electronic and paper mail. |
510 |
|
511 |
You should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer) or your |
512 |
school, if any, to sign a "copyright disclaimer" for the library, if |
513 |
necessary. Here is a sample; alter the names: |
514 |
|
515 |
Yoyodyne, Inc., hereby disclaims all copyright interest in the |
516 |
library `Frob' (a library for tweaking knobs) written by James Random Hacker. |
517 |
|

That's all there is to it! |
