      7 The ProGuard code itself is copyrighted, but its distribution license
      8 provides you with some rights for modifying and redistributing its

     10 under the terms of the GNU General Public License (GPL), version 2, as
     11 published by the Free Software Foundation (FSF). In short, this means
     12 that you may freely redistribute the program, modified or as is, on
     13 the condition that you make the complete source code available as
     14 well. If you develop a program that is linked with ProGuard, the
     15 program as a whole has to be distributed at no charge under the GPL. I
     16 am granting a special exception to the latter clause (in wording
     17 suggested by the FSF, for combinations with the following stand-alone

     34  Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies
     35  of this license document, but changing it is not allowed.
     36 
     37 			    Preamble
     38 
     39   The licenses for most software are designed to take away your
     40 freedom to share and change it.  By contrast, the GNU General Public
     41 License is intended to guarantee your freedom to share and change free
     42 software--to make sure the software is free for all its users.  This
     43 General Public License applies to most of the Free Software
     44 Foundation's software and to any other program whose authors commit to
     45 using it.  (Some other Free Software Foundation software is covered by
     46 the GNU Library General Public License instead.)  You can apply it to
     47 your programs, too.
     48 
     49   When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not
     50 price.  Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that you
     51 have the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge for
     52 this service if you wish), that you receive source code or can get it
     53 if you want it, that you can change the software or use pieces of it
     54 in new free programs; and that you know you can do these things.
     55 
     56   To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that forbid
     57 anyone to deny you these rights or to ask you to surrender the rights.
     58 These restrictions translate to certain responsibilities for you if you
     59 distribute copies of the software, or if you modify it.
     60 
     61   For example, if you distribute copies of such a program, whether
     62 gratis or for a fee, you must give the recipients all the rights that
     63 you have.  You must make sure that they, too, receive or can get the
     64 source code.  And you must show them these terms so they know their
     65 rights.
     66 
     67   We protect your rights with two steps: (1) copyright the software, and
     68 (2) offer you this license which gives you legal permission to copy,
     69 distribute and/or modify the software.
     70 
     71   Also, for each author's protection and ours, we want to make certain
     72 that everyone understands that there is no warranty for this free
     73 software.  If the software is modified by someone else and passed on, we
     74 want its recipients to know that what they have is not the original, so
     75 that any problems introduced by others will not reflect on the original
     76 authors' reputations.
     77 
     78   Finally, any free program is threatened constantly by software
     79 patents.  We wish to avoid the danger that redistributors of a free
     80 program will individually obtain patent licenses, in effect making the
     81 program proprietary.  To prevent this, we have made it clear that any
     82 patent must be licensed for everyone's free use or not licensed at all.
     83 
     84   The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and
     85 modification follow.
     86 
     88 		    GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE
     89    TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION
     90 
     91   0. This License applies to any program or other work which contains
     92 a notice placed by the copyright holder saying it may be distributed
     93 under the terms of this General Public License.  The "Program", below,
     94 refers to any such program or work, and a "work based on the Program"
     95 means either the Program or any derivative work under copyright law:
     96 that is to say, a work containing the Program or a portion of it,
     97 either verbatim or with modifications and/or translated into another
     98 language.  (Hereinafter, translation is included without limitation in
     99 the term "modification".)  Each licensee is addressed as "you".
    100 
    101 Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are not
    102 covered by this License; they are outside its scope.  The act of
    103 running the Program is not restricted, and the output from the Program
    104 is covered only if its contents constitute a work based on the
    105 Program (independent of having been made by running the Program).
    106 Whether that is true depends on what the Program does.
    107 
    108   1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Program's
    109 source code as you receive it, in any medium, provided that you
    110 conspicuously and appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate
    111 copyright notice and disclaimer of warranty; keep intact all the
    112 notices that refer to this License and to the absence of any warranty;
    113 and give any other recipients of the Program a copy of this License
    114 along with the Program.
    115 
    116 You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy, and
    117 you may at your option offer warranty protection in exchange for a fee.
    118 
    119   2. You may modify your copy or copies of the Program or any portion
    120 of it, thus forming a work based on the Program, and copy and
    121 distribute such modifications or work under the terms of Section 1
    122 above, provided that you also meet all of these conditions:
    123 
    124     a) You must cause the modified files to carry prominent notices
    125     stating that you changed the files and the date of any change.
    126 
    127     b) You must cause any work that you distribute or publish, that in
    128     whole or in part contains or is derived from the Program or any
    129     part thereof, to be licensed as a whole at no charge to all third
    130     parties under the terms of this License.
    131 
    132     c) If the modified program normally reads commands interactively
    133     when run, you must cause it, when started running for such
    134     interactive use in the most ordinary way, to print or display an
    135     announcement including an appropriate copyright notice and a
    136     notice that there is no warranty (or else, saying that you provide
    137     a warranty) and that users may redistribute the program under
    138     these conditions, and telling the user how to view a copy of this
    139     License.  (Exception: if the Program itself is interactive but
    140     does not normally print such an announcement, your work based on
    141     the Program is not required to print an announcement.)
    142 
    144 These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole.  If
    145 identifiable sections of that work are not derived from the Program,
    146 and can be reasonably considered independent and separate works in
    147 themselves, then this License, and its terms, do not apply to those
    148 sections when you distribute them as separate works.  But when you
    149 distribute the same sections as part of a whole which is a work based
    150 on the Program, the distribution of the whole must be on the terms of
    151 this License, whose permissions for other licensees extend to the
    152 entire whole, and thus to each and every part regardless of who wrote it.
    153 
    154 Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest
    155 your rights to work written entirely by you; rather, the intent is to
    156 exercise the right to control the distribution of derivative or
    157 collective works based on the Program.
    158 
    159 In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the Program
    160 with the Program (or with a work based on the Program) on a volume of
    161 a storage or distribution medium does not bring the other work under
    162 the scope of this License.
    163 
    164   3. You may copy and distribute the Program (or a work based on it,
    165 under Section 2) in object code or executable form under the terms of
    166 Sections 1 and 2 above provided that you also do one of the following:
    167 
    168     a) Accompany it with the complete corresponding machine-readable
    169     source code, which must be distributed under the terms of Sections
    170     1 and 2 above on a medium customarily used for software interchange; or,
    171 
    172     b) Accompany it with a written offer, valid for at least three
    173     years, to give any third party, for a charge no more than your
    174     cost of physically performing source distribution, a complete
    175     machine-readable copy of the corresponding source code, to be
    176     distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium
    177     customarily used for software interchange; or,
    178 
    179     c) Accompany it with the information you received as to the offer
    180     to distribute corresponding source code.  (This alternative is
    181     allowed only for noncommercial distribution and only if you
    182     received the program in object code or executable form with such
    183     an offer, in accord with Subsection b above.)
    184 
    185 The source code for a work means the preferred form of the work for
    186 making modifications to it.  For an executable work, complete source
    187 code means all the source code for all modules it contains, plus any
    188 associated interface definition files, plus the scripts used to
    189 control compilation and installation of the executable.  However, as a
    190 special exception, the source code distributed need not include
    191 anything that is normally distributed (in either source or binary
    192 form) with the major components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of the
    193 operating system on which the executable runs, unless that component
    194 itself accompanies the executable.
    195 
    196 If distribution of executable or object code is made by offering
    197 access to copy from a designated place, then offering equivalent
    198 access to copy the source code from the same place counts as
    199 distribution of the source code, even though third parties are not
    200 compelled to copy the source along with the object code.
    201 
    203   4. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the Program
    204 except as expressly provided under this License.  Any attempt
    205 otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense or distribute the Program is
    206 void, and will automatically terminate your rights under this License.
    207 However, parties who have received copies, or rights, from you under
    208 this License will not have their licenses terminated so long as such
    209 parties remain in full compliance.
    210 
    211   5. You are not required to accept this License, since you have not
    212 signed it.  However, nothing else grants you permission to modify or
    213 distribute the Program or its derivative works.  These actions are
    214 prohibited by law if you do not accept this License.  Therefore, by
    215 modifying or distributing the Program (or any work based on the
    216 Program), you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so, and
    217 all its terms and conditions for copying, distributing or modifying
    218 the Program or works based on it.
    219 
    220   6. Each time you redistribute the Program (or any work based on the
    221 Program), the recipient automatically receives a license from the
    222 original licensor to copy, distribute or modify the Program subject to
    223 these terms and conditions.  You may not impose any further
    224 restrictions on the recipients' exercise of the rights granted herein.
    225 You are not responsible for enforcing compliance by third parties to
    226 this License.
    227 
    228   7. If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent
    229 infringement or for any other reason (not limited to patent issues),
    230 conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or
    231 otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not
    232 excuse you from the conditions of this License.  If you cannot
    233 distribute so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this
    234 License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you
    235 may not distribute the Program at all.  For example, if a patent
    236 license would not permit royalty-free redistribution of the Program by
    237 all those who receive copies directly or indirectly through you, then
    238 the only way you could satisfy both it and this License would be to
    239 refrain entirely from distribution of the Program.
    240 
    241 If any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable under
    242 any particular circumstance, the balance of the section is intended to
    243 apply and the section as a whole is intended to apply in other
    244 circumstances.
    245 
    246 It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe any
    247 patents or other property right claims or to contest validity of any
    248 such claims; this section has the sole purpose of protecting the
    249 integrity of the free software distribution system, which is
    250 implemented by public license practices.  Many people have made
    251 generous contributions to the wide range of software distributed
    252 through that system in reliance on consistent application of that
    253 system; it is up to the author/donor to decide if he or she is willing
    254 to distribute software through any other system and a licensee cannot
    255 impose that choice.
    256 
    257 This section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is believed to
    258 be a consequence of the rest of this License.
    259 
    261   8. If the distribution and/or use of the Program is restricted in
    262 certain countries either by patents or by copyrighted interfaces, the
    263 original copyright holder who places the Program under this License
    264 may add an explicit geographical distribution limitation excluding
    265 those countries, so that distribution is permitted only in or among
    266 countries not thus excluded.  In such case, this License incorporates
    267 the limitation as if written in the body of this License.
    268 
    269   9. The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions
    270 of the General Public License from time to time.  Such new versions will
    271 be similar in spirit to the present version, but may differ in detail to
    272 address new problems or concerns.
    273 
    274 Each version is given a distinguishing version number.  If the Program
    275 specifies a version number of this License which applies to it and "any
    276 later version", you have the option of following the terms and conditions
    277 either of that version or of any later version published by the Free
    278 Software Foundation.  If the Program does not specify a version number of
    279 this License, you may choose any version ever published by the Free Software
    280 Foundation.
    281 
    282   10. If you wish to incorporate parts of the Program into other free
    283 programs whose distribution conditions are different, write to the author
    284 to ask for permission.  For software which is copyrighted by the Free
    285 Software Foundation, write to the Free Software Foundation; we sometimes
    286 make exceptions for this.  Our decision will be guided by the two goals
    287 of preserving the free status of all derivatives of our free software and
    288 of promoting the sharing and reuse of software generally.
    289 
    290 			    NO WARRANTY
    291 
    292   11. BECAUSE THE PROGRAM IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE, THERE IS NO WARRANTY
    293 FOR THE PROGRAM, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW.  EXCEPT WHEN
    294 OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER PARTIES
    295 PROVIDE THE PROGRAM "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED
    296 OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF
    297 MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.  THE ENTIRE RISK AS
    298 TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE PROGRAM IS WITH YOU.  SHOULD THE
    299 PROGRAM PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE COST OF ALL NECESSARY SERVICING,
    300 REPAIR OR CORRECTION.
    301 
    302   12. IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN WRITING
    303 WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MAY MODIFY AND/OR
    304 REDISTRIBUTE THE PROGRAM AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES,
    305 INCLUDING ANY GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING
    306 OUT OF THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED
    307 TO LOSS OF DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY
    308 YOU OR THIRD PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF THE PROGRAM TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER
    309 PROGRAMS), EVEN IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE
    310 POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
    311 
    312 		     END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS
    313 
    315 	    How to Apply These Terms to Your New Programs
    316 
    317   If you develop a new program, and you want it to be of the greatest
    318 possible use to the public, the best way to achieve this is to make it
    319 free software which everyone can redistribute and change under these terms.
    320 
    321   To do so, attach the following notices to the program.  It is safest
    322 to attach them to the start of each source file to most effectively
    323 convey the exclusion of warranty; and each file should have at least
    324 the "copyright" line and a pointer to where the full notice is found.
    325 
    326     <one line to give the program's name and a brief idea of what it does.>
    327     Copyright (C) <year>  <name of author>
    328 
    329     This program is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify
    330     it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by
    331     the Free Software Foundation; either version 2 of the License, or
    332     (at your option) any later version.
    333 
    334     This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful,
    335     but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of
    336     MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.  See the
    337     GNU General Public License for more details.
    338 
    339     You should have received a copy of the GNU General Public License
    340     along with this program; if not, write to the Free Software
    341     Foundation, Inc., 59 Temple Place, Suite 330, Boston, MA  02111-1307  USA
    342 
    343 
    344 Also add information on how to contact you by electronic and paper mail.
    345 
    346 If the program is interactive, make it output a short notice like this
    347 when it starts in an interactive mode:
    348 
    349     Gnomovision version 69, Copyright (C) year  name of author
    350     Gnomovision comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY; for details type `show w'.
    351     This is free software, and you are welcome to redistribute it
    352     under certain conditions; type `show c' for details.
    353 
    354 The hypothetical commands `show w' and `show c' should show the appropriate
    355 parts of the General Public License.  Of course, the commands you use may
    356 be called something other than `show w' and `show c'; they could even be
    357 mouse-clicks or menu items--whatever suits your program.
    358 
    359 You should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer) or your
    360 school, if any, to sign a "copyright disclaimer" for the program, if
    361 necessary.  Here is a sample; alter the names:
    362 
    363   Yoyodyne, Inc., hereby disclaims all copyright interest in the program
    364   `Gnomovision' (which makes passes at compilers) written by James Hacker.

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