1 GNU AFFERO GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE

5 Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies
6 of this license document, but changing it is not allowed.
7
8 Preamble
9
10 The GNU Affero General Public License is a free, copyleft license for
11software and other kinds of works, specifically designed to ensure
12cooperation with the community in the case of network server software.
13
14 The licenses for most software and other practical works are designed
15to take away your freedom to share and change the works. By contrast,
16our General Public Licenses are intended to guarantee your freedom to
17share and change all versions of a program--to make sure it remains free
18software for all its users.
19
20 When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not
21price. Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that you
22have the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge for
23them if you wish), that you receive source code or can get it if you
24want it, that you can change the software or use pieces of it in new
25free programs, and that you know you can do these things.
26
27 Developers that use our General Public Licenses protect your rights
28with two steps: (1) assert copyright on the software, and (2) offer
29you this License which gives you legal permission to copy, distribute
30and/or modify the software.
31
32 A secondary benefit of defending all users' freedom is that
33improvements made in alternate versions of the program, if they
34receive widespread use, become available for other developers to
35incorporate. Many developers of free software are heartened and
36encouraged by the resulting cooperation. However, in the case of
37software used on network servers, this result may fail to come about.
38The GNU General Public License permits making a modified version and
39letting the public access it on a server without ever releasing its
40source code to the public.
41
42 The GNU Affero General Public License is designed specifically to
43ensure that, in such cases, the modified source code becomes available
44to the community. It requires the operator of a network server to
45provide the source code of the modified version running there to the
46users of that server. Therefore, public use of a modified version, on
47a publicly accessible server, gives the public access to the source
48code of the modified version.
49
50 An older license, called the Affero General Public License and
51published by Affero, was designed to accomplish similar goals. This is
52a different license, not a version of the Affero GPL, but Affero has
53released a new version of the Affero GPL which permits relicensing under
54this license.
55
56 This license has also been amended by Dynastic Development in order
57to provide a version of the license which is more fair and respectful to
58contributors and their work.
59
60 The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and
61modification follow.
62
63 TERMS AND CONDITIONS
64
65 0. Definitions.
66
67 "This License" refers to version 3 of the GNU Affero General Public License.
68
69 "Copyright" also means copyright-like laws that apply to other kinds of
70works, such as semiconductor masks.
71
72 "The Program" refers to any copyrightable work licensed under this
73License. Each licensee is addressed as "you". "Licensees" and
74"recipients" may be individuals or organizations.
75
76 To "modify" a work means to copy from or adapt all or part of the work
77in a fashion requiring copyright permission, other than the making of an
78exact copy. The resulting work is called a "modified version" of the
79earlier work or a work "based on" the earlier work.
80
81 A "covered work" means either the unmodified Program or a work based
82on the Program.
83
84 To "propagate" a work means to do anything with it that, without
85permission, would make you directly or secondarily liable for
86infringement under applicable copyright law, except executing it on a
87computer or modifying a private copy. Propagation includes copying,
88distribution (with or without modification), making available to the
89public, and in some countries other activities as well.
90
91 To "convey" a work means any kind of propagation that enables other
92parties to make or receive copies. Mere interaction with a user through
93a computer network, with no transfer of a copy, is not conveying.
94
95 An interactive user interface displays "Appropriate Legal Notices"
96to the extent that it includes a convenient and prominently visible
97feature that (1) displays an appropriate copyright notice, and (2)
98tells the user that there is no warranty for the work (except to the
99extent that warranties are provided), that licensees may convey the
100work under this License, and how to view a copy of this License. If
101the interface presents a list of user commands or options, such as a
102menu, a prominent item in the list meets this criterion.
103
104 1. Source Code.
105
106 The "source code" for a work means the preferred form of the work
107for making modifications to it. "Object code" means any non-source
108form of a work.
109
110 A "Standard Interface" means an interface that either is an official
111standard defined by a recognized standards body, or, in the case of
112interfaces specified for a particular programming language, one that
113is widely used among developers working in that language.
114
115 The "System Libraries" of an executable work include anything, other
116than the work as a whole, that (a) is included in the normal form of
117packaging a Major Component, but which is not part of that Major
118Component, and (b) serves only to enable use of the work with that
119Major Component, or to implement a Standard Interface for which an
120implementation is available to the public in source code form. A
121"Major Component", in this context, means a major essential component
122(kernel, window system, and so on) of the specific operating system
123(if any) on which the executable work runs, or a compiler used to
124produce the work, or an object code interpreter used to run it.
125
126 The "Corresponding Source" for a work in object code form means all
127the source code needed to generate, install, and (for an executable
128work) run the object code and to modify the work, including scripts to
129control those activities. However, it does not include the work's
130System Libraries, or general-purpose tools or generally available free
131programs which are used unmodified in performing those activities but
132which are not part of the work. For example, Corresponding Source
133includes interface definition files associated with source files for
134the work, and the source code for shared libraries and dynamically
135linked subprograms that the work is specifically designed to require,
136such as by intimate data communication or control flow between those
137subprograms and other parts of the work.
138
139 The Corresponding Source need not include anything that users
140can regenerate automatically from other parts of the Corresponding
141Source.
142
143 The Corresponding Source for a work in source code form is that
144same work.
145
146 2. Basic Permissions.
147
148 All rights granted under this License are granted for the term of
149copyright on the Program, and are irrevocable provided the stated
150conditions are met. This License explicitly affirms your unlimited
151permission to run the unmodified Program. The output from running a
152covered work is covered by this License only if the output, given its
153content, constitutes a covered work. This License acknowledges your
154rights of fair use or other equivalent, as provided by copyright law.
155
156 You may make, run and propagate covered works that you do not
157convey, without conditions so long as your license otherwise remains
158in force. You may convey covered works to others for the sole purpose
159of having them make modifications exclusively for you, or provide you
160with facilities for running those works, provided that you comply with
161the terms of this License in conveying all material for which you do
162not control copyright. Those thus making or running the covered works
163for you must do so exclusively on your behalf, under your direction
164and control, on terms that prohibit them from making any copies of
165your copyrighted material outside their relationship with you.
166
167 Conveying under any other circumstances is permitted solely under
168the conditions stated below. Sublicensing is not allowed; section 10
169makes it unnecessary.
170
171 3. Protecting Users' Legal Rights From Anti-Circumvention Law.
172
173 No covered work shall be deemed part of an effective technological
174measure under any applicable law fulfilling obligations under article
17511 of the WIPO copyright treaty adopted on 20 December 1996, or
176similar laws prohibiting or restricting circumvention of such
177measures.
178
179 When you convey a covered work, you waive any legal power to forbid
180circumvention of technological measures to the extent such circumvention
181is effected by exercising rights under this License with respect to
182the covered work, and you disclaim any intention to limit operation or
183modification of the work as a means of enforcing, against the work's
184users, your or third parties' legal rights to forbid circumvention of
185technological measures.
186
187 4. Conveying Verbatim Copies.
188
189 You may convey verbatim copies of the Program's source code as you
190receive it, in any medium, provided that you conspicuously and
191appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate copyright notice;
192keep intact all notices stating that this License and any
193non-permissive terms added in accord with section 7 apply to the code;
194keep intact all notices of the absence of any warranty; and give all
195recipients a copy of this License along with the Program.
196
197 You may charge any price or no price for each copy that you convey,
198and you may offer support or warranty protection for a fee.
199
200 5. Conveying Modified Source Versions.
201
202 You may convey a work based on the Program, or the modifications to
203produce it from the Program, in the form of source code under the
204terms of section 4, provided that you also meet all of these conditions:
205
206 a) The work must carry prominent notices stating that you modified
207 it, and giving a relevant date.
208
209 b) The work must carry prominent notices stating that it is
210 released under this License and any conditions added under section
211 7. This requirement modifies the requirement in section 4 to
212 "keep intact all notices".
213
214 c) You must license the entire work, as a whole, under this
215 License to anyone who comes into possession of a copy. This
216 License will therefore apply, along with any applicable section 7
217 additional terms, to the whole of the work, and all its parts,
218 regardless of how they are packaged. This License gives no
219 permission to license the work in any other way, but it does not
220 invalidate such permission if you have separately received it.
221
222 d) If the work has interactive user interfaces, each must display
223 Appropriate Legal Notices; however, if the Program has interactive
224 interfaces that do not display Appropriate Legal Notices, your
225 work need not make them do so.
226
227 A compilation of a covered work with other separate and independent
228works, which are not by their nature extensions of the covered work,
229and which are not combined with it such as to form a larger program,
230in or on a volume of a storage or distribution medium, is called an
231"aggregate" if the compilation and its resulting copyright are not
232used to limit the access or legal rights of the compilation's users
233beyond what the individual works permit. Inclusion of a covered work
234in an aggregate does not cause this License to apply to the other
235parts of the aggregate.
236
237 6. Conveying Non-Source Forms.
238
239 You may convey a covered work in object code form under the terms
240of sections 4 and 5, provided that you also convey the
241machine-readable Corresponding Source under the terms of this License,
242in one of these ways:
243
244 a) Convey the object code in, or embodied in, a physical product
245 (including a physical distribution medium), accompanied by the
246 Corresponding Source fixed on a durable physical medium
247 customarily used for software interchange.
248
249 b) Convey the object code in, or embodied in, a physical product
250 (including a physical distribution medium), accompanied by a
251 written offer, valid for at least three years and valid for as
252 long as you offer spare parts or customer support for that product
253 model, to give anyone who possesses the object code either (1) a
254 copy of the Corresponding Source for all the software in the
255 product that is covered by this License, on a durable physical
256 medium customarily used for software interchange, for a price no
257 more than your reasonable cost of physically performing this
258 conveying of source, or (2) access to copy the
259 Corresponding Source from a network server at no charge.
260
261 c) Convey individual copies of the object code with a copy of the
262 written offer to provide the Corresponding Source. This
263 alternative is allowed only occasionally and noncommercially, and
264 only if you received the object code with such an offer, in accord
265 with subsection 6b.
266
267 d) Convey the object code by offering access from a designated
268 place (gratis or for a charge), and offer equivalent access to the
269 Corresponding Source in the same way through the same place at no
270 further charge. You need not require recipients to copy the
271 Corresponding Source along with the object code. If the place to
272 copy the object code is a network server, the Corresponding Source
273 may be on a different server (operated by you or a third party)
274 that supports equivalent copying facilities, provided you maintain
275 clear directions next to the object code saying where to find the
276 Corresponding Source. Regardless of what server hosts the
277 Corresponding Source, you remain obligated to ensure that it is
278 available for as long as needed to satisfy these requirements.
279
280 e) Convey the object code using peer-to-peer transmission, provided
281 you inform other peers where the object code and Corresponding
282 Source of the work are being offered to the general public at no
283 charge under subsection 6d.
284
285 A separable portion of the object code, whose source code is excluded
286from the Corresponding Source as a System Library, need not be
287included in conveying the object code work.
288
289 A "User Product" is either (1) a "consumer product", which means any
290tangible personal property which is normally used for personal, family,
291or household purposes, or (2) anything designed or sold for incorporation
292into a dwelling. In determining whether a product is a consumer product,
293doubtful cases shall be resolved in favor of coverage. For a particular
294product received by a particular user, "normally used" refers to a
295typical or common use of that class of product, regardless of the status
296of the particular user or of the way in which the particular user
297actually uses, or expects or is expected to use, the product. A product
298is a consumer product regardless of whether the product has substantial
299commercial, industrial or non-consumer uses, unless such uses represent
300the only significant mode of use of the product.
301
302 "Installation Information" for a User Product means any methods,
303procedures, authorization keys, or other information required to install
304and execute modified versions of a covered work in that User Product from
305a modified version of its Corresponding Source. The information must
306suffice to ensure that the continued functioning of the modified object
307code is in no case prevented or interfered with solely because
308modification has been made.
309
310 If you convey an object code work under this section in, or with, or
311specifically for use in, a User Product, and the conveying occurs as
312part of a transaction in which the right of possession and use of the
313User Product is transferred to the recipient in perpetuity or for a
314fixed term (regardless of how the transaction is characterized), the
315Corresponding Source conveyed under this section must be accompanied
316by the Installation Information. But this requirement does not apply
317if neither you nor any third party retains the ability to install
318modified object code on the User Product (for example, the work has
319been installed in ROM).
320
321 The requirement to provide Installation Information does not include a
322requirement to continue to provide support service, warranty, or updates
323for a work that has been modified or installed by the recipient, or for
324the User Product in which it has been modified or installed. Access to a
325network may be denied when the modification itself materially and
326adversely affects the operation of the network or violates the rules and
327protocols for communication across the network.
328
329 Corresponding Source conveyed, and Installation Information provided,
330in accord with this section must be in a format that is publicly
331documented (and with an implementation available to the public in
332source code form), and must require no special password or key for
333unpacking, reading or copying.
334
335 7. Additional Terms.
336
337 "Additional permissions" are terms that supplement the terms of this
338License by making exceptions from one or more of its conditions.
339Additional permissions that are applicable to the entire Program shall
340be treated as though they were included in this License, to the extent
341that they are valid under applicable law. If additional permissions
342apply only to part of the Program, that part may be used separately
343under those permissions, but the entire Program remains governed by
344this License without regard to the additional permissions.
345
346 When you convey a copy of a covered work, you may at your option
347remove any additional permissions from that copy, or from any part of
348it. (Additional permissions may be written to require their own
349removal in certain cases when you modify the work.) You may place
350additional permissions on material, added by you to a covered work,
351for which you have or can give appropriate copyright permission.
352
353 Notwithstanding any other provision of this License, for material you
354add to a covered work, you may (if authorized by the copyright holders of
355that material) supplement the terms of this License with terms:
356
357 a) Disclaiming warranty or limiting liability differently from the
358 terms of sections 15 and 16 of this License; or
359
360 b) Requiring preservation of specified reasonable legal notices or
361 author attributions in that material or in the Appropriate Legal
362 Notices displayed by works containing it; or
363
364 c) Prohibiting misrepresentation of the origin of that material, or
365 requiring that modified versions of such material be marked in
366 reasonable ways as different from the original version; or
367
368 d) Limiting the use for publicity purposes of names of licensors or
369 authors of the material; or
370
371 e) Declining to grant rights under trademark law for use of some
372 trade names, trademarks, or service marks; or
373
374 f) Requiring indemnification of licensors and authors of that
375 material by anyone who conveys the material (or modified versions of
376 it) with contractual assumptions of liability to the recipient, for
377 any liability that these contractual assumptions directly impose on
378 those licensors and authors.
379
380 All other non-permissive additional terms are considered "further
381restrictions" within the meaning of section 10. If the Program as you
382received it, or any part of it, contains a notice stating that it is
383governed by this License along with a term that is a further
384restriction, you may remove that term. If a license document contains
385a further restriction but permits relicensing or conveying under this
386License, you may add to a covered work material governed by the terms
387of that license document, provided that the further restriction does
388not survive such relicensing or conveying.
389
390 If you add terms to a covered work in accord with this section, you
391must place, in the relevant source files, a statement of the
392additional terms that apply to those files, or a notice indicating
393where to find the applicable terms.
394
395 Additional terms, permissive or non-permissive, may be stated in the
396form of a separately written license, or stated as exceptions;
397the above requirements apply either way.
398
399 8. Termination.
400
401 You may not propagate or modify a covered work except as expressly
402provided under this License. Any attempt otherwise to propagate or
403modify it is void, and will automatically terminate your rights under
404this License (including any patent licenses granted under the third
405paragraph of section 11).
406
407 However, if you cease all violation of this License, then your
408license from a particular copyright holder is reinstated (a)
409provisionally, unless and until the copyright holder explicitly and
410finally terminates your license, and (b) permanently, if the copyright
411holder fails to notify you of the violation by some reasonable means
412prior to 60 days after the cessation.
413
414 Moreover, your license from a particular copyright holder is
415reinstated permanently if the copyright holder notifies you of the
416violation by some reasonable means, this is the first time you have
417received notice of violation of this License (for any work) from that
418copyright holder, and you cure the violation prior to 30 days after
419your receipt of the notice.
420
421 Termination of your rights under this section does not terminate the
422licenses of parties who have received copies or rights from you under
423this License. If your rights have been terminated and not permanently
424reinstated, you do not qualify to receive new licenses for the same
425material under section 10.
426
427 9. Acceptance Not Required for Having Copies.
428
429 You are not required to accept this License in order to receive or
430run a copy of the Program. Ancillary propagation of a covered work
431occurring solely as a consequence of using peer-to-peer transmission
432to receive a copy likewise does not require acceptance. However,
433nothing other than this License grants you permission to propagate or
434modify any covered work. These actions infringe copyright if you do
435not accept this License. Therefore, by modifying or propagating a
436covered work, you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so.
437
438 10. Automatic Licensing of Downstream Recipients.
439
440 Each time you convey a covered work, the recipient automatically
441receives a license from the original licensors, to run, modify and
442propagate that work, subject to this License. You are not responsible
443for enforcing compliance by third parties with this License.
444
445 An "entity transaction" is a transaction transferring control of an
446organization, or substantially all assets of one, or subdividing an
447organization, or merging organizations. If propagation of a covered
448work results from an entity transaction, each party to that
449transaction who receives a copy of the work also receives whatever
450licenses to the work the party's predecessor in interest had or could
451give under the previous paragraph, plus a right to possession of the
452Corresponding Source of the work from the predecessor in interest, if
453the predecessor has it or can get it with reasonable efforts.
454
455 You may not impose any further restrictions on the exercise of the
456rights granted or affirmed under this License. For example, you may
457not impose a license fee, royalty, or other charge for exercise of
458rights granted under this License, and you may not initiate litigation
459(including a cross-claim or counterclaim in a lawsuit) alleging that
460any patent claim is infringed by making, using, selling, offering for
461sale, or importing the Program or any portion of it.
462
463 11. Patents.
464
465 A "contributor" is a copyright holder who authorizes use under this
466License of the Program or a work on which the Program is based. The
467work thus licensed is called the contributor's "contributor version".
468
469 A contributor's "essential patent claims" are all patent claims
470owned or controlled by the contributor, whether already acquired or
471hereafter acquired, that would be infringed by some manner, permitted
472by this License, of making, using, or selling its contributor version,
473but do not include claims that would be infringed only as a
474consequence of further modification of the contributor version. For
475purposes of this definition, "control" includes the right to grant
476patent sublicenses in a manner consistent with the requirements of
477this License.
478
479 Each contributor grants you a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free
480patent license under the contributor's essential patent claims, to
481make, use, sell, offer for sale, import and otherwise run, modify and
482propagate the contents of its contributor version.
483
484 In the following three paragraphs, a "patent license" is any express
485agreement or commitment, however denominated, not to enforce a patent
486(such as an express permission to practice a patent or covenant not to
487sue for patent infringement). To "grant" such a patent license to a
488party means to make such an agreement or commitment not to enforce a
489patent against the party.
490
491 If you convey a covered work, knowingly relying on a patent license,
492and the Corresponding Source of the work is not available for anyone
493to copy, free of charge and under the terms of this License, through a
494publicly available network server or other readily accessible means,
495then you must either (1) cause the Corresponding Source to be so
496available, or (2) arrange to deprive yourself of the benefit of the
497patent license for this particular work, or (3) arrange, in a manner
498consistent with the requirements of this License, to extend the patent
499license to downstream recipients. "Knowingly relying" means you have
500actual knowledge that, but for the patent license, your conveying the
501covered work in a country, or your recipient's use of the covered work
502in a country, would infringe one or more identifiable patents in that
503country that you have reason to believe are valid.
504
505 If, pursuant to or in connection with a single transaction or
506arrangement, you convey, or propagate by procuring conveyance of, a
507covered work, and grant a patent license to some of the parties
508receiving the covered work authorizing them to use, propagate, modify
509or convey a specific copy of the covered work, then the patent license
510you grant is automatically extended to all recipients of the covered
511work and works based on it.
512
513 A patent license is "discriminatory" if it does not include within
514the scope of its coverage, prohibits the exercise of, or is
515conditioned on the non-exercise of one or more of the rights that are
516specifically granted under this License. You may not convey a covered
517work if you are a party to an arrangement with a third party that is
518in the business of distributing software, under which you make payment
519to the third party based on the extent of your activity of conveying
520the work, and under which the third party grants, to any of the
521parties who would receive the covered work from you, a discriminatory
522patent license (a) in connection with copies of the covered work
523conveyed by you (or copies made from those copies), or (b) primarily
524for and in connection with specific products or compilations that
525contain the covered work, unless you entered into that arrangement,
526or that patent license was granted, prior to 28 March 2007.
527
528 Nothing in this License shall be construed as excluding or limiting
529any implied license or other defenses to infringement that may
530otherwise be available to you under applicable patent law.
531
532 12. No Surrender of Others' Freedom.
533
534 If conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or
535otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not
536excuse you from the conditions of this License. If you cannot convey a
537covered work so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this
538License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you may
539not convey it at all. For example, if you agree to terms that obligate you
540to collect a royalty for further conveying from those to whom you convey
541the Program, the only way you could satisfy both those terms and this
542License would be to refrain entirely from conveying the Program.
543
544 13. Remote Network Interaction; Use with the GNU General Public License.
545
546 Notwithstanding any other provision of this License, if you modify the
547Program, your modified version must prominently offer all users
548interacting with it remotely through a computer network (if your version
549supports such interaction) an opportunity to receive the Corresponding
550Source of your version by providing access to the Corresponding Source
551from a network server at no charge, through some standard or customary
552means of facilitating copying of software. This Corresponding Source
553shall include the Corresponding Source for any work covered by version 3
554of the GNU General Public License that is incorporated pursuant to the
555following paragraph.
556
557 Notwithstanding any other provision of this License, you have
558permission to link or combine any covered work with a work licensed
559under version 3 of the GNU General Public License into a single
560combined work, and to convey the resulting work. The terms of this
561License will continue to apply to the part which is the covered work,
562but the work with which it is combined will remain governed by version
5633 of the GNU General Public License.
564
565 14. Revised Versions of this License.
566
567 The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions of
568the GNU Affero General Public License from time to time. Such new versions
569will be similar in spirit to the present version, but may differ in detail to
570address new problems or concerns.
571
572 Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the
573Program specifies that a certain numbered version of the GNU Affero General
574Public License "or any later version" applies to it, you have the
575option of following the terms and conditions either of that numbered
576version or of any later version published by the Free Software
577Foundation. If the Program does not specify a version number of the
578GNU Affero General Public License, you may choose any version ever published
579by the Free Software Foundation.
580
581 If the Program specifies that a proxy can decide which future
582versions of the GNU Affero General Public License can be used, that proxy's
583public statement of acceptance of a version permanently authorizes you
584to choose that version for the Program.
585
586 Later license versions may give you additional or different
587permissions. However, no additional obligations are imposed on any
588author or copyright holder as a result of your choosing to follow a
589later version.
590
591 15. Disclaimer of Warranty.
592
593 THERE IS NO WARRANTY FOR THE PROGRAM, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY
594APPLICABLE LAW. EXCEPT WHEN OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT
595HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER PARTIES PROVIDE THE PROGRAM "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY
596OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO,
597THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR
598PURPOSE. THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE PROGRAM
599IS WITH YOU. SHOULD THE PROGRAM PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE COST OF
600ALL NECESSARY SERVICING, REPAIR OR CORRECTION.
601
602 16. Limitation of Liability.
603
604 IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN WRITING
605WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MODIFIES AND/OR CONVEYS
606THE PROGRAM AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES, INCLUDING ANY
607GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THE
608USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF
609DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY YOU OR THIRD
610PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF THE PROGRAM TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER PROGRAMS),
611EVEN IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF
612SUCH DAMAGES.
613
614 17. Interpretation of Sections 15 and 16.
615
616 If the disclaimer of warranty and limitation of liability provided
617above cannot be given local legal effect according to their terms,
618reviewing courts shall apply local law that most closely approximates
619an absolute waiver of all civil liability in connection with the
620Program, unless a warranty or assumption of liability accompanies a
621copy of the Program in return for a fee.
622
623 END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS
624
625 How to Apply These Terms to Your New Programs
626
627 If you develop a new program, and you want it to be of the greatest
628possible use to the public, the best way to achieve this is to make it
629free software which everyone can redistribute and change under these terms.
630
631 To do so, attach the following notices to the program. It is safest
632to attach them to the start of each source file to most effectively
633state the exclusion of warranty; and each file should have at least
634the "copyright" line and a pointer to where the full notice is found.
635
636 <one line to give the program's name and a brief idea of what it does.>
637 Copyright (C) <year> <name of author>
638
639 This program is free software: you can redistribute it and/or modify
640 it under the terms of the GNU Affero General Public License as published
641 by the Free Software Foundation, either version 3 of the License, or
642 (at your option) any later version.
643
644 This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful,
645 but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of
646 MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. See the
647 GNU Affero General Public License for more details.
648
649 You should have received a copy of the GNU Affero General Public License
650 along with this program. If not, see <http://www.gnu.org/licenses/>.
651
652Also add information on how to contact you by electronic and paper mail.
653
654 If your software can interact with users remotely through a computer
655network, you should also make sure that it provides a way for users to
656get its source. For example, if your program is a web application, its
657interface could display a "Source" link that leads users to an archive
658of the code. There are many ways you could offer source, and different
659solutions will be better for different programs; see section 13 for the
660specific requirements.
661
662 You should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer) or school,
663if any, to sign a "copyright disclaimer" for the program, if necessary.

667 AMENDMENTS TO TERMS AND CONDITIONS
668
669 In addition to the following terms and conditions detailed above, there are
670 a few key differences that has been amended, in order to be respectful to the
671 contributors.
672
673 0. Source Recognition.
674
675 “Link” refers to a hyperlink on a web page, which can be interacted with
676 by users in order to take them to the specified web address.
677
678 To “publicly host“ the program is to make it accessible via the Internet
679 to any number of users.
680
681 To “commercially host” the program is to make it accessible with the intent
682 of any commercial gain.
683
684 Every publicly or commercially hosted copy of the program must include, in
685 some place easily visible to users, a link back to the original hosted version
686 of the program (accessible at https://canvas.place), and a link to the original
687 source code repository (accessible via GitHub under Dynastic Development’s GitHub
688 organization with the project name ‘place’).
