APPENDIX
7. If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of
patent infringement or for any other reason (not limited to
patent issues), conditions are imposed on you (whether by
court order, agreement or otherwise) that contradict the con-
ditions of this license, they do not excuse you from the con-
ditions of this license. If you cannot distribute so as to satis-
fy simultaneously your obligations under this license and any
other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you may
not distribute the program at all. For example, if a patent
license would not permit royalty-free redistribution of the
program by all those who receive copies directly or indirectly
through you, then the only way you could satisfy both it and
this license would be to refrain entirely from distribution of
the program.
If any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable
under any particular circumstance, the balance of the section
is intended to apply and the section as a whole is intended to
apply in other circumstances.
It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe
any patents or other property right claims or to contest valid-
ity of any such claims; this section has the sole purpose of
protecting the integrity of the free software distribution sys-
tem, which is implemented by public license practices. Many
people have made generous contributions to the wide range
of software distributed through that system in reliance on
consistent application of that system; it is up to the
author/donor to decide if he or she is willing to distribute
software through any other system and a licensee cannot
impose that choice.
This section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is
believed to be a consequence of the rest of this license.
8. If the distribution and/or use of the program is restricted in
certain countries either by patents or by copyrighted inter-
faces, the original copyright holder who places the program
under this license may add an explicit geographical distribution
limitation excluding those countries, so that distribution is
permitted only in or among countries not thus excluded. In
such case, this license incorporates the limitation as if written
in the body of this license.
9. The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or
new versions of the General Public License from time to time.
Such new versions will be similar in spirit to the present ver-
sion, but may differ in detail to address new problems or con-
cerns.
Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the
program specifies a version number of this license which
applies to it and "any later version", you have the option of
following the terms and conditions either of that version or of
any later version published by the Free Software Foundation.
If the program does not specify a version number of this
license, you may choose any version ever published by the
Free Software Foundation.
10.If you wish to incorporate parts of the program into other free
programs whose distribution conditions are different, write to
the author to ask for permission. For software which is copy-
righted by the Free Software Foundation, write to the Free
Software Foundation; we sometimes make exceptions for this.
Our decision will be guided by the two goals of preserving the
free status of all derivatives of our free software and of pro-
moting the sharing and reuse of software generally.
NO WARRANTY
11. BECAUSE THE PROGRAM IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE,
THERE IS NO WARRANTY FOR THE PROGRAM, TO THE
EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW. EXCEPT WHEN
OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT HOLD-
ERS AND/OR OTHER PARTIES PROVIDE THE PROGRAM "AS
IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EITHER
EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED

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.
12.IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR
AGREED TO IN WRITING WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER,
OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MAY MODIFY AND/OR
REDISTRIBUTE 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 PRO-
GRAM (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF DATA
OR DATA BEING RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUS-
TAINED 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.
