    When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not
  price.  Specifically, the General Public License is designed to make
  sure that you have the freedom to give away or sell copies of free
  software, 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 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.
- 
+
    For example, if you distribute copies of a 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 tell them their rights.
-

    We protect your rights with two steps: (1) copyright the software, and
  (2) offer you this license which gives you legal permission to copy,
  distribute and/or modify the software.

    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.

    If you develop a new program, and you want it to be of the greatest
  possible use to humanity, 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 convey
  the exclusion of warranty; and each file should have at least the
  "copyright" line and a pointer to where the full notice is found.

- 
-

  Also add information on how to contact you by electronic and paper mail.

  If the program is interactive, make it output a short notice like this
  when it starts in an interactive mode:

  The hypothetical commands 'show w' and 'show c' should show the
  appropriate parts of the General Public License.  Of course, the
  commands you use may be called something other than 'show w' and 'show
  c'; they could even be mouse-clicks or menu items--whatever suits your
  program.
