Gnomovision comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY;

are welcome to redistribute it under certain conditions;
type `show c' for details.
The hypothetical commands `show w' and `show c' should

Of course, the commands you use may be called something

or your school, if any, to sign a "copyright disclaimer" for the

This General Public License does not permit incorporating
your program into proprietary programs. If your program is a
subroutine library, you may consider it more useful to permit
linking proprietary applications with the library. If this is what
you want to do, use the GNU Lesser General Public License
instead of this License.

Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies

also counts as the successor of the GNU Library Public

Preamble
The licenses for most software are designed to take away
your freedom to share and change it. By contrast, the GNU
General Public Licenses are intended to guarantee your
freedom to share and change free software--to make sure
the software is free for all its users.
This license, the Lesser General Public License, applies
to some specially designated software packages--typically
libraries--of the Free Software Foundation and other authors
who decide to use it. You can use it too, but we suggest you
fi rst think carefully about whether this license or the ordinary
General Public License is the better strategy to use in any
particular case, based on the explanations below.
When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom
of use, 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 and use pieces of it in new free programs;
and that you are informed that you can do these things.
To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that
forbid distributors to deny you these rights or to ask you to
