+                      GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE
+                         Version 3, 29 June 2007
+  
+   Copyright (C) 2007 Free Software Foundation, Inc. <http://fsf.org/>
+   Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies
+   of this license document, but changing it is not allowed.
+  
+                              Preamble
+  
+    The GNU General Public License is a free, copyleft license for
+  software and other kinds of works.
+  
+    The licenses for most software and other practical works are designed
+  to take away your freedom to share and change the works.  By contrast,
+  the GNU General Public License is intended to guarantee your freedom to
+  share and change all versions of a program--to make sure it remains free
+  software for all its users.  We, the Free Software Foundation, use the
+  GNU General Public License for most of our software; it applies also to
+  any other work released this way by its authors.  You can apply it to
+  your programs, too.
+  
+    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
+  them 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.
+  
+    To protect your rights, we need to prevent others from denying you
+  these rights or asking you to surrender the rights.  Therefore, you have
+  certain responsibilities if you distribute copies of the software, or if
+  you modify it: responsibilities to respect the freedom of others.
+  
+    For example, if you distribute copies of such a program, whether
+  gratis or for a fee, you must pass on to the recipients the same
+  freedoms that you received.  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.
+  
+    Developers that use the GNU GPL protect your rights with two steps:
+  (1) assert copyright on the software, and (2) offer you this License
+  giving you legal permission to copy, distribute and/or modify it.
+  
+    For the developers' and authors' protection, the GPL clearly explains
+  that there is no warranty for this free software.  For both users' and
+  authors' sake, the GPL requires that modified versions be marked as
+  changed, so that their problems will not be attributed erroneously to
+  authors of previous versions.
+  
+    Some devices are designed to deny users access to install or run
+  modified versions of the software inside them, although the manufacturer
+  can do so.  This is fundamentally incompatible with the aim of
+  protecting users' freedom to change the software.  The systematic
+  pattern of such abuse occurs in the area of products for individuals to
+  use, which is precisely where it is most unacceptable.  Therefore, we
+  have designed this version of the GPL to prohibit the practice for those
+  products.  If such problems arise substantially in other domains, we
+  stand ready to extend this provision to those domains in future versions
+  of the GPL, as needed to protect the freedom of users.
+  
+    Finally, every program is threatened constantly by software patents.
+  States should not allow patents to restrict development and use of
+  software on general-purpose computers, but in those that do, we wish to
+  avoid the special danger that patents applied to a free program could
+  make it effectively proprietary.  To prevent this, the GPL assures that
+  patents cannot be used to render the program non-free.
+  
+    The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and
+  modification follow.
+  
+                         TERMS AND CONDITIONS
+  
+    0. Definitions.
+  
+    "This License" refers to version 3 of the GNU General Public License.
+  
+    "Copyright" also means copyright-like laws that apply to other kinds of
+  works, such as semiconductor masks.
+  
+    "The Program" refers to any copyrightable work licensed under this
+  License.  Each licensee is addressed as "you".  "Licensees" and
+  "recipients" may be individuals or organizations.
+  
+    To "modify" a work means to copy from or adapt all or part of the work
+  in a fashion requiring copyright permission, other than the making of an
+  exact copy.  The resulting work is called a "modified version" of the
+  earlier work or a work "based on" the earlier work.
+  
+    A "covered work" means either the unmodified Program or a work based
+  on the Program.
+  
+    To "propagate" a work means to do anything with it that, without
+  permission, would make you directly or secondarily liable for
+  infringement under applicable copyright law, except executing it on a
+  computer or modifying a private copy.  Propagation includes copying,
+  distribution (with or without modification), making available to the
+  public, and in some countries other activities as well.
+  
+    To "convey" a work means any kind of propagation that enables other
+  parties to make or receive copies.  Mere interaction with a user through
+  a computer network, with no transfer of a copy, is not conveying.
+  
+    An interactive user interface displays "Appropriate Legal Notices"
+  to the extent that it includes a convenient and prominently visible
+  feature that (1) displays an appropriate copyright notice, and (2)
+  tells the user that there is no warranty for the work (except to the
+  extent that warranties are provided), that licensees may convey the
+  work under this License, and how to view a copy of this License.  If
+  the interface presents a list of user commands or options, such as a
+  menu, a prominent item in the list meets this criterion.
+  
+    1. Source Code.
+  
+    The "source code" for a work means the preferred form of the work
+  for making modifications to it.  "Object code" means any non-source
+  form of a work.
+  
+    A "Standard Interface" means an interface that either is an official
+  standard defined by a recognized standards body, or, in the case of
+  interfaces specified for a particular programming language, one that
+  is widely used among developers working in that language.
+  
+    The "System Libraries" of an executable work include anything, other
+  than the work as a whole, that (a) is included in the normal form of
+  packaging a Major Component, but which is not part of that Major
+  Component, and (b) serves only to enable use of the work with that
+  Major Component, or to implement a Standard Interface for which an
+  implementation is available to the public in source code form.  A
+  "Major Component", in this context, means a major essential component
+  (kernel, window system, and so on) of the specific operating system
+  (if any) on which the executable work runs, or a compiler used to
+  produce the work, or an object code interpreter used to run it.
+  
+    The "Corresponding Source" for a work in object code form means all
+  the source code needed to generate, install, and (for an executable
+  work) run the object code and to modify the work, including scripts to
+  control those activities.  However, it does not include the work's
+  System Libraries, or general-purpose tools or generally available free
+  programs which are used unmodified in performing those activities but
+  which are not part of the work.  For example, Corresponding Source
+  includes interface definition files associated with source files for
+  the work, and the source code for shared libraries and dynamically
+  linked subprograms that the work is specifically designed to require,
+  such as by intimate data communication or control flow between those
+  subprograms and other parts of the work.
+  
+    The Corresponding Source need not include anything that users
+  can regenerate automatically from other parts of the Corresponding
+  Source.
+  
+    The Corresponding Source for a work in source code form is that
+  same work.
+  
+    2. Basic Permissions.
+  
+    All rights granted under this License are granted for the term of
+  copyright on the Program, and are irrevocable provided the stated
+  conditions are met.  This License explicitly affirms your unlimited
+  permission to run the unmodified Program.  The output from running a
+  covered work is covered by this License only if the output, given its
+  content, constitutes a covered work.  This License acknowledges your
+  rights of fair use or other equivalent, as provided by copyright law.
+  
+    You may make, run and propagate covered works that you do not
+  convey, without conditions so long as your license otherwise remains
+  in force.  You may convey covered works to others for the sole purpose
+  of having them make modifications exclusively for you, or provide you
+  with facilities for running those works, provided that you comply with
+  the terms of this License in conveying all material for which you do
+  not control copyright.  Those thus making or running the covered works
+  for you must do so exclusively on your behalf, under your direction
+  and control, on terms that prohibit them from making any copies of
+  your copyrighted material outside their relationship with you.
+  
+    Conveying under any other circumstances is permitted solely under
+  the conditions stated below.  Sublicensing is not allowed; section 10
+  makes it unnecessary.
+  
+    3. Protecting Users' Legal Rights From Anti-Circumvention Law.
+  
+    No covered work shall be deemed part of an effective technological
+  measure under any applicable law fulfilling obligations under article
+  11 of the WIPO copyright treaty adopted on 20 December 1996, or
+  similar laws prohibiting or restricting circumvention of such
+  measures.
+  
+    When you convey a covered work, you waive any legal power to forbid
+  circumvention of technological measures to the extent such circumvention
+  is effected by exercising rights under this License with respect to
+  the covered work, and you disclaim any intention to limit operation or
+  modification of the work as a means of enforcing, against the work's
+  users, your or third parties' legal rights to forbid circumvention of
+  technological measures.
+  
+    4. Conveying Verbatim Copies.
+  
+    You may convey verbatim copies of the Program's source code as you
+  receive it, in any medium, provided that you conspicuously and
+  appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate copyright notice;
+  keep intact all notices stating that this License and any
+  non-permissive terms added in accord with section 7 apply to the code;
+  keep intact all notices of the absence of any warranty; and give all
+  recipients a copy of this License along with the Program.
+  
+    You may charge any price or no price for each copy that you convey,
+  and you may offer support or warranty protection for a fee.
+  
+    5. Conveying Modified Source Versions.
+  
+    You may convey a work based on the Program, or the modifications to
+  produce it from the Program, in the form of source code under the
+  terms of section 4, provided that you also meet all of these conditions:
+  
+      a) The work must carry prominent notices stating that you modified
+      it, and giving a relevant date.
+  
+      b) The work must carry prominent notices stating that it is
+      released under this License and any conditions added under section
+      7.  This requirement modifies the requirement in section 4 to
+      "keep intact all notices".
+  
+      c) You must license the entire work, as a whole, under this
+      License to anyone who comes into possession of a copy.  This
+      License will therefore apply, along with any applicable section 7
+      additional terms, to the whole of the work, and all its parts,
+      regardless of how they are packaged.  This License gives no
+      permission to license the work in any other way, but it does not
+      invalidate such permission if you have separately received it.
+  
+      d) If the work has interactive user interfaces, each must display
+      Appropriate Legal Notices; however, if the Program has interactive
+      interfaces that do not display Appropriate Legal Notices, your
+      work need not make them do so.
+  
+    A compilation of a covered work with other separate and independent
+  works, which are not by their nature extensions of the covered work,
+  and which are not combined with it such as to form a larger program,
+  in or on a volume of a storage or distribution medium, is called an
+  "aggregate" if the compilation and its resulting copyright are not
+  used to limit the access or legal rights of the compilation's users
+  beyond what the individual works permit.  Inclusion of a covered work
+  in an aggregate does not cause this License to apply to the other
+  parts of the aggregate.
+  
+    6. Conveying Non-Source Forms.
+  
+    You may convey a covered work in object code form under the terms
+  of sections 4 and 5, provided that you also convey the
+  machine-readable Corresponding Source under the terms of this License,
+  in one of these ways:
+  
+      a) Convey the object code in, or embodied in, a physical product
+      (including a physical distribution medium), accompanied by the
+      Corresponding Source fixed on a durable physical medium
+      customarily used for software interchange.
+  
+      b) Convey the object code in, or embodied in, a physical product
+      (including a physical distribution medium), accompanied by a
+      written offer, valid for at least three years and valid for as
+      long as you offer spare parts or customer support for that product
+      model, to give anyone who possesses the object code either (1) a
+      copy of the Corresponding Source for all the software in the
+      product that is covered by this License, on a durable physical
+      medium customarily used for software interchange, for a price no
+      more than your reasonable cost of physically performing this
+      conveying of source, or (2) access to copy the
+      Corresponding Source from a network server at no charge.
+  
+      c) Convey individual copies of the object code with a copy of the
+      written offer to provide the Corresponding Source.  This
+      alternative is allowed only occasionally and noncommercially, and
+      only if you received the object code with such an offer, in accord
+      with subsection 6b.
+  
+      d) Convey the object code by offering access from a designated
+      place (gratis or for a charge), and offer equivalent access to the
+      Corresponding Source in the same way through the same place at no
+      further charge.  You need not require recipients to copy the
+      Corresponding Source along with the object code.  If the place to
+      copy the object code is a network server, the Corresponding Source
+      may be on a different server (operated by you or a third party)
+      that supports equivalent copying facilities, provided you maintain
+      clear directions next to the object code saying where to find the
+      Corresponding Source.  Regardless of what server hosts the
+      Corresponding Source, you remain obligated to ensure that it is
+      available for as long as needed to satisfy these requirements.
+  
+      e) Convey the object code using peer-to-peer transmission, provided
+      you inform other peers where the object code and Corresponding
+      Source of the work are being offered to the general public at no
+      charge under subsection 6d.
+  
+    A separable portion of the object code, whose source code is excluded
+  from the Corresponding Source as a System Library, need not be
+  included in conveying the object code work.
+  
+    A "User Product" is either (1) a "consumer product", which means any
+  tangible personal property which is normally used for personal, family,
+  or household purposes, or (2) anything designed or sold for incorporation
+  into a dwelling.  In determining whether a product is a consumer product,
+  doubtful cases shall be resolved in favor of coverage.  For a particular
+  product received by a particular user, "normally used" refers to a
+  typical or common use of that class of product, regardless of the status
+  of the particular user or of the way in which the particular user
+  actually uses, or expects or is expected to use, the product.  A product
+  is a consumer product regardless of whether the product has substantial
+  commercial, industrial or non-consumer uses, unless such uses represent
+  the only significant mode of use of the product.
+  
+    "Installation Information" for a User Product means any methods,
+  procedures, authorization keys, or other information required to install
+  and execute modified versions of a covered work in that User Product from
+  a modified version of its Corresponding Source.  The information must
+  suffice to ensure that the continued functioning of the modified object
+  code is in no case prevented or interfered with solely because
+  modification has been made.
+  
+    If you convey an object code work under this section in, or with, or
+  specifically for use in, a User Product, and the conveying occurs as
+  part of a transaction in which the right of possession and use of the
+  User Product is transferred to the recipient in perpetuity or for a
+  fixed term (regardless of how the transaction is characterized), the
+  Corresponding Source conveyed under this section must be accompanied
+  by the Installation Information.  But this requirement does not apply
+  if neither you nor any third party retains the ability to install
+  modified object code on the User Product (for example, the work has
+  been installed in ROM).
+  
+    The requirement to provide Installation Information does not include a
+  requirement to continue to provide support service, warranty, or updates
+  for a work that has been modified or installed by the recipient, or for
+  the User Product in which it has been modified or installed.  Access to a
+  network may be denied when the modification itself materially and
+  adversely affects the operation of the network or violates the rules and
+  protocols for communication across the network.
+  
+    Corresponding Source conveyed, and Installation Information provided,
+  in accord with this section must be in a format that is publicly
+  documented (and with an implementation available to the public in
+  source code form), and must require no special password or key for
+  unpacking, reading or copying.
+  
+    7. Additional Terms.
+  
+    "Additional permissions" are terms that supplement the terms of this
+  License by making exceptions from one or more of its conditions.
+  Additional permissions that are applicable to the entire Program shall
+  be treated as though they were included in this License, to the extent
+  that they are valid under applicable law.  If additional permissions
+  apply only to part of the Program, that part may be used separately
+  under those permissions, but the entire Program remains governed by
+  this License without regard to the additional permissions.
+  
+    When you convey a copy of a covered work, you may at your option
+  remove any additional permissions from that copy, or from any part of
+  it.  (Additional permissions may be written to require their own
+  removal in certain cases when you modify the work.)  You may place
+  additional permissions on material, added by you to a covered work,
+  for which you have or can give appropriate copyright permission.
+  
+    Notwithstanding any other provision of this License, for material you
+  add to a covered work, you may (if authorized by the copyright holders of
+  that material) supplement the terms of this License with terms:
+  
+      a) Disclaiming warranty or limiting liability differently from the
+      terms of sections 15 and 16 of this License; or
+  
+      b) Requiring preservation of specified reasonable legal notices or
+      author attributions in that material or in the Appropriate Legal
+      Notices displayed by works containing it; or
+  
+      c) Prohibiting misrepresentation of the origin of that material, or
+      requiring that modified versions of such material be marked in
+      reasonable ways as different from the original version; or
+  
+      d) Limiting the use for publicity purposes of names of licensors or
+      authors of the material; or
+  
+      e) Declining to grant rights under trademark law for use of some
+      trade names, trademarks, or service marks; or
+  
+      f) Requiring indemnification of licensors and authors of that
+      material by anyone who conveys the material (or modified versions of
+      it) with contractual assumptions of liability to the recipient, for
+      any liability that these contractual assumptions directly impose on
+      those licensors and authors.
+  
+    All other non-permissive additional terms are considered "further
+  restrictions" within the meaning of section 10.  If the Program as you
+  received it, or any part of it, contains a notice stating that it is
+  governed by this License along with a term that is a further
+  restriction, you may remove that term.  If a license document contains
+  a further restriction but permits relicensing or conveying under this
+  License, you may add to a covered work material governed by the terms
+  of that license document, provided that the further restriction does
+  not survive such relicensing or conveying.
+  
+    If you add terms to a covered work in accord with this section, you
+  must place, in the relevant source files, a statement of the
+  additional terms that apply to those files, or a notice indicating
+  where to find the applicable terms.
+  
+    Additional terms, permissive or non-permissive, may be stated in the
+  form of a separately written license, or stated as exceptions;
+  the above requirements apply either way.
+  
+    8. Termination.
+  
+    You may not propagate or modify a covered work except as expressly
+  provided under this License.  Any attempt otherwise to propagate or
+  modify it is void, and will automatically terminate your rights under
+  this License (including any patent licenses granted under the third
+  paragraph of section 11).
+  
+    However, if you cease all violation of this License, then your
+  license from a particular copyright holder is reinstated (a)
+  provisionally, unless and until the copyright holder explicitly and
+  finally terminates your license, and (b) permanently, if the copyright
+  holder fails to notify you of the violation by some reasonable means
+  prior to 60 days after the cessation.
+  
+    Moreover, your license from a particular copyright holder is
+  reinstated permanently if the copyright holder notifies you of the
+  violation by some reasonable means, this is the first time you have
+  received notice of violation of this License (for any work) from that
+  copyright holder, and you cure the violation prior to 30 days after
+  your receipt of the notice.
+  
+    Termination of your rights under this section does not terminate the
+  licenses of parties who have received copies or rights from you under
+  this License.  If your rights have been terminated and not permanently
+  reinstated, you do not qualify to receive new licenses for the same
+  material under section 10.
+  
+    9. Acceptance Not Required for Having Copies.
+  
+    You are not required to accept this License in order to receive or
+  run a copy of the Program.  Ancillary propagation of a covered work
+  occurring solely as a consequence of using peer-to-peer transmission
+  to receive a copy likewise does not require acceptance.  However,
+  nothing other than this License grants you permission to propagate or
+  modify any covered work.  These actions infringe copyright if you do
+  not accept this License.  Therefore, by modifying or propagating a
+  covered work, you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so.
+  
+    10. Automatic Licensing of Downstream Recipients.
+  
+    Each time you convey a covered work, the recipient automatically
+  receives a license from the original licensors, to run, modify and
+  propagate that work, subject to this License.  You are not responsible
+  for enforcing compliance by third parties with this License.
+  
+    An "entity transaction" is a transaction transferring control of an
+  organization, or substantially all assets of one, or subdividing an
+  organization, or merging organizations.  If propagation of a covered
+  work results from an entity transaction, each party to that
+  transaction who receives a copy of the work also receives whatever
+  licenses to the work the party's predecessor in interest had or could
+  give under the previous paragraph, plus a right to possession of the
+  Corresponding Source of the work from the predecessor in interest, if
+  the predecessor has it or can get it with reasonable efforts.
+  
+    You may not impose any further restrictions on the exercise of the
+  rights granted or affirmed under this License.  For example, you may
+  not impose a license fee, royalty, or other charge for exercise of
+  rights granted under this License, and you may not initiate litigation
+  (including a cross-claim or counterclaim in a lawsuit) alleging that
+  any patent claim is infringed by making, using, selling, offering for
+  sale, or importing the Program or any portion of it.
+  
+    11. Patents.
+  
+    A "contributor" is a copyright holder who authorizes use under this
+  License of the Program or a work on which the Program is based.  The
+  work thus licensed is called the contributor's "contributor version".
+  
+    A contributor's "essential patent claims" are all patent claims
+  owned or controlled by the contributor, whether already acquired or
+  hereafter acquired, that would be infringed by some manner, permitted
+  by this License, of making, using, or selling its contributor version,
+  but do not include claims that would be infringed only as a
+  consequence of further modification of the contributor version.  For
+  purposes of this definition, "control" includes the right to grant
+  patent sublicenses in a manner consistent with the requirements of
+  this License.
+  
+    Each contributor grants you a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free
+  patent license under the contributor's essential patent claims, to
+  make, use, sell, offer for sale, import and otherwise run, modify and
+  propagate the contents of its contributor version.
+  
+    In the following three paragraphs, a "patent license" is any express
+  agreement or commitment, however denominated, not to enforce a patent
+  (such as an express permission to practice a patent or covenant not to
+  sue for patent infringement).  To "grant" such a patent license to a
+  party means to make such an agreement or commitment not to enforce a
+  patent against the party.
+  
+    If you convey a covered work, knowingly relying on a patent license,
+  and the Corresponding Source of the work is not available for anyone
+  to copy, free of charge and under the terms of this License, through a
+  publicly available network server or other readily accessible means,
+  then you must either (1) cause the Corresponding Source to be so
+  available, or (2) arrange to deprive yourself of the benefit of the
+  patent license for this particular work, or (3) arrange, in a manner
+  consistent with the requirements of this License, to extend the patent
+  license to downstream recipients.  "Knowingly relying" means you have
+  actual knowledge that, but for the patent license, your conveying the
+  covered work in a country, or your recipient's use of the covered work
+  in a country, would infringe one or more identifiable patents in that
+  country that you have reason to believe are valid.
+  
+    If, pursuant to or in connection with a single transaction or
+  arrangement, you convey, or propagate by procuring conveyance of, a
+  covered work, and grant a patent license to some of the parties
+  receiving the covered work authorizing them to use, propagate, modify
+  or convey a specific copy of the covered work, then the patent license
+  you grant is automatically extended to all recipients of the covered
+  work and works based on it.
+  
+    A patent license is "discriminatory" if it does not include within
+  the scope of its coverage, prohibits the exercise of, or is
+  conditioned on the non-exercise of one or more of the rights that are
+  specifically granted under this License.  You may not convey a covered
+  work if you are a party to an arrangement with a third party that is
+  in the business of distributing software, under which you make payment
+  to the third party based on the extent of your activity of conveying
+  the work, and under which the third party grants, to any of the
+  parties who would receive the covered work from you, a discriminatory
+  patent license (a) in connection with copies of the covered work
+  conveyed by you (or copies made from those copies), or (b) primarily
+  for and in connection with specific products or compilations that
+  contain the covered work, unless you entered into that arrangement,
+  or that patent license was granted, prior to 28 March 2007.
+  
+    Nothing in this License shall be construed as excluding or limiting
+  any implied license or other defenses to infringement that may
+  otherwise be available to you under applicable patent law.
+  
+    12. No Surrender of Others' Freedom.
+  
+    If conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or
+  otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not
+  excuse you from the conditions of this License.  If you cannot convey a
+  covered work so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this
+  License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you may
+  not convey it at all.  For example, if you agree to terms that obligate you
+  to collect a royalty for further conveying from those to whom you convey
+  the Program, the only way you could satisfy both those terms and this
+  License would be to refrain entirely from conveying the Program.
+  
+    13. Use with the GNU Affero General Public License.
+  
+    Notwithstanding any other provision of this License, you have
+  permission to link or combine any covered work with a work licensed
+  under version 3 of the GNU Affero General Public License into a single
+  combined work, and to convey the resulting work.  The terms of this
+  License will continue to apply to the part which is the covered work,
+  but the special requirements of the GNU Affero General Public License,
+  section 13, concerning interaction through a network will apply to the
+  combination as such.
+  
+    14. Revised Versions of this License.
+  
+    The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions of
+  the GNU General Public License from time to time.  Such new versions will
+  be similar in spirit to the present version, but may differ in detail to
+  address new problems or concerns.
+  
+    Each version is given a distinguishing version number.  If the
+  Program specifies that a certain numbered version of the GNU General
+  Public License "or any later version" applies to it, you have the
+  option of following the terms and conditions either of that numbered
+  version or of any later version published by the Free Software
+  Foundation.  If the Program does not specify a version number of the
+  GNU General Public License, you may choose any version ever published
+  by the Free Software Foundation.
+  
+    If the Program specifies that a proxy can decide which future
+  versions of the GNU General Public License can be used, that proxy's
+  public statement of acceptance of a version permanently authorizes you
+  to choose that version for the Program.
+  
+    Later license versions may give you additional or different
+  permissions.  However, no additional obligations are imposed on any
+  author or copyright holder as a result of your choosing to follow a
+  later version.
+  
+    15. Disclaimer of Warranty.
+  
+    THERE IS NO WARRANTY FOR THE PROGRAM, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY
+  APPLICABLE LAW.  EXCEPT WHEN OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT
+  HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER PARTIES PROVIDE THE PROGRAM "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY
+  OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO,
+  THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR
+  PURPOSE.  THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE PROGRAM
+  IS WITH YOU.  SHOULD THE PROGRAM PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE COST OF
+  ALL NECESSARY SERVICING, REPAIR OR CORRECTION.
+  
+    16. Limitation of Liability.
+  
+    IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN WRITING
+  WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MODIFIES AND/OR CONVEYS
+  THE PROGRAM AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES, INCLUDING ANY
+  GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THE
+  USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF
+  DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY YOU OR THIRD
+  PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF THE PROGRAM TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER PROGRAMS),
+  EVEN IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF
+  SUCH DAMAGES.
+  
+    17. Interpretation of Sections 15 and 16.
+  
+    If the disclaimer of warranty and limitation of liability provided
+  above cannot be given local legal effect according to their terms,
+  reviewing courts shall apply local law that most closely approximates
+  an absolute waiver of all civil liability in connection with the
+  Program, unless a warranty or assumption of liability accompanies a
+  copy of the Program in return for a fee.
+  
+                       END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS
+  
+              How to Apply These Terms to Your New Programs
+  
+    If you develop a new program, and you want it to be of the greatest
+  possible use to the public, the best way to achieve this is to make it
+  free software which everyone can redistribute and change under these terms.
+  
+    To do so, attach the following notices to the program.  It is safest
+  to attach them to the start of each source file to most effectively
+  state the exclusion of warranty; and each file should have at least
+  the "copyright" line and a pointer to where the full notice is found.
+  
+      <one line to give the program's name and a brief idea of what it does.>
+      Copyright (C) <year>  <name of author>
+  
+      This program is free software: you can redistribute it and/or modify
+      it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by
+      the Free Software Foundation, either version 3 of the License, or
+      (at your option) any later version.
+  
+      This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful,
+      but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of
+      MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.  See the
+      GNU General Public License for more details.
+  
+      You should have received a copy of the GNU General Public License
+      along with this program.  If not, see <http://www.gnu.org/licenses/>.
+  
+  Also add information on how to contact you by electronic and paper mail.
+  
+    If the program does terminal interaction, make it output a short
+  notice like this when it starts in an interactive mode:
+  
+      <program>  Copyright (C) <year>  <name of author>
+      This program comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY; for details type `show w'.
+      This is free software, and you are welcome to redistribute it
+      under certain conditions; type `show c' for details.
+  
+  The hypothetical commands `show w' and `show c' should show the appropriate
+  parts of the General Public License.  Of course, your program's commands
+  might be different; for a GUI interface, you would use an "about box".
+  
+    You should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer) or school,
+  if any, to sign a "copyright disclaimer" for the program, if necessary.
+  For more information on this, and how to apply and follow the GNU GPL, see
+  <http://www.gnu.org/licenses/>.
+  
+    The GNU 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.  But first, please read
+  <http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/why-not-lgpl.html>.
