| 460 | | How to Apply These Terms to Your New Libraries |
| 461 | | |
| 462 | | If you develop a new library, and you want it to be of the greatest |
| 463 | | possible use to the public, we recommend making it free software that |
| 464 | | everyone can redistribute and change. You can do so by permitting |
| 465 | | redistribution under these terms (or, alternatively, under the terms of the |
| 466 | | ordinary General Public License). |
| 467 | | |
| 468 | | To apply these terms, attach the following notices to the library. It is |
| 469 | | safest to attach them to the start of each source file to most effectively |
| 470 | | convey the exclusion of warranty; and each file should have at least the |
| 471 | | "copyright" line and a pointer to where the full notice is found. |
| 472 | | |
| 473 | | <one line to give the library's name and a brief idea of what it does.> |
| 474 | | Copyright (C) <year> <name of author> |
| 475 | | |
| 476 | | This library is free software; you can redistribute it and/or |
| 477 | | modify it under the terms of the GNU Lesser General Public |
| 478 | | License as published by the Free Software Foundation; either |
| 479 | | version 2.1 of the License, or (at your option) any later version. |
| 480 | | |
| 481 | | This library is distributed in the hope that it will be useful, |
| 482 | | but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of |
| 483 | | MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. See the GNU |
| 484 | | Lesser General Public License for more details. |
| 485 | | |
| 486 | | You should have received a copy of the GNU Lesser General Public |
| 487 | | License along with this library; if not, write to the Free Software |
| 488 | | Foundation, Inc., 51 Franklin Street, Fifth Floor, Boston, MA 02110-1301, USA |
| 489 | | |
| 490 | | Also add information on how to contact you by electronic and paper mail. |
| 491 | | |
| 492 | | You should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer) or your |
| 493 | | school, if any, to sign a "copyright disclaimer" for the library, if |
| 494 | | necessary. Here is a sample; alter the names: |
| 495 | | |
| 496 | | Yoyodyne, Inc., hereby disclaims all copyright interest in the |
| 497 | | library `Frob' (a library for tweaking knobs) written by James Random Hacker. |
