By contrast, the GNU General Public<br \/>\nLicense is intended to guarantee your freedom to share and change free<br \/>\nsoftware&#8211;to make sure the software is free for all its users. This<br \/>\nGeneral Public License applies to most of the Free Software<br \/>\nFoundation&#8217;s software and to any other program whose authors commit to<br \/>\nusing it. (Some other Free Software Foundation software is covered by<br \/>\nthe GNU Library General Public License instead.) You can apply it to<br \/>\nyour programs, too.<\/p>\n<p>When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not<br \/>\nprice. Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that you<br \/>\nhave the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge for<br \/>\nthis service if you wish), that you receive source code or can get it<br \/>\nif you want it, that you can change the software or use pieces of it<br \/>\nin new free programs; and that you know you can do these things.<\/p>\n<p>To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that forbid<br \/>\nanyone to deny you these rights or to ask you to surrender the rights.<br \/>\nThese restrictions translate to certain responsibilities for you if you<br \/>\ndistribute copies of the software, or if you modify it.<\/p>\n<p>For example, if you distribute copies of such a program, whether<br \/>\ngratis or for a fee, you must give the recipients all the rights that<br \/>\nyou have. You must make sure that they, too, receive or can get the<br \/>\nsource code. And you must show them these terms so they know their<br \/>\nrights.<\/p>\n<p>We protect your rights with two steps: (1) copyright the software, and<br \/>\n(2) offer you this license which gives you legal permission to copy,<br \/>\ndistribute and\/or modify the software.<\/p>\n<p>Also, for each author&#8217;s protection and ours, we want to make certain<br \/>\nthat everyone understands that there is no warranty for this free<br \/>\nsoftware. If the software is modified by someone else and passed on, we<br \/>\nwant its recipients to know that what they have is not the original, so<br \/>\nthat any problems introduced by others will not reflect on the original<br \/>\nauthors&#8216; reputations.<\/p>\n<p>Finally, any free program is threatened constantly by software<br \/>\npatents. We wish to avoid the danger that redistributors of a free<br \/>\nprogram will individually obtain patent licenses, in effect making the<br \/>\nprogram proprietary. To prevent this, we have made it clear that any<br \/>\npatent must be licensed for everyone&#8217;s free use or not licensed at all.<\/p>\n<p>The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and<br \/>\nmodification follow.<\/p>\n<p>GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE<br \/>\nTERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION<\/p>\n<p>0. This License applies to any program or other work which contains<br \/>\na notice placed by the copyright holder saying it may be distributed<br \/>\nunder the terms of this General Public License. The &#8222;Program&#8220;, below,<br \/>\nrefers to any such program or work, and a &#8222;work based on the Program&#8220;<br \/>\nmeans either the Program or any derivative work under copyright law:<br \/>\nthat is to say, a work containing the Program or a portion of it,<br \/>\neither verbatim or with modifications and\/or translated into another<br \/>\nlanguage. (Hereinafter, translation is included without limitation in<br \/>\nthe term &#8222;modification&#8220;.) Each licensee is addressed as &#8222;you&#8220;.<\/p>\n<p>Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are not<br \/>\ncovered by this License; they are outside its scope. The act of<br \/>\nrunning the Program is not restricted, and the output from the Program<br \/>\nis covered only if its contents constitute a work based on the<br \/>\nProgram (independent of having been made by running the Program).<br \/>\nWhether that is true depends on what the Program does.<\/p>\n<p>1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Program&#8217;s<br \/>\nsource code as you receive it, in any medium, provided that you<br \/>\nconspicuously and appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate<br \/>\ncopyright notice and disclaimer of warranty; keep intact all the<br \/>\nnotices that refer to this License and to the absence of any warranty;<br \/>\nand give any other recipients of the Program a copy of this License<br \/>\nalong with the Program.<\/p>\n<p>You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy, and<br \/>\nyou may at your option offer warranty protection in exchange for a fee.<\/p>\n<p>2. You may modify your copy or copies of the Program or any portion<br \/>\nof it, thus forming a work based on the Program, and copy and<br \/>\ndistribute such modifications or work under the terms of Section 1<br \/>\nabove, provided that you also meet all of these conditions:<\/p>\n<p>a) You must cause the modified files to carry prominent notices<br \/>\nstating that you changed the files and the date of any change.<\/p>\n<p>b) You must cause any work that you distribute or publish, that in<br \/>\nwhole or in part contains or is derived from the Program or any<br \/>\npart thereof, to be licensed as a whole at no charge to all third<br \/>\nparties under the terms of this License.<\/p>\n<p>c) If the modified program normally reads commands interactively<br \/>\nwhen run, you must cause it, when started running for such<br \/>\ninteractive use in the most ordinary way, to print or display an<br \/>\nannouncement including an appropriate copyright notice and a<br \/>\nnotice that there is no warranty (or else, saying that you provide<br \/>\na warranty) and that users may redistribute the program under<br \/>\nthese conditions, and telling the user how to view a copy of this<br \/>\nLicense. (Exception: if the Program itself is interactive but<br \/>\ndoes not normally print such an announcement, your work based on<br \/>\nthe Program is not required to print an announcement.)<\/p>\n<p>These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole. If<br \/>\nidentifiable sections of that work are not derived from the Program,<br \/>\nand can be reasonably considered independent and separate works in<br \/>\nthemselves, then this License, and its terms, do not apply to those<br \/>\nsections when you distribute them as separate works. But when you<br \/>\ndistribute the same sections as part of a whole which is a work based<br \/>\non the Program, the distribution of the whole must be on the terms of<br \/>\nthis License, whose permissions for other licensees extend to the<br \/>\nentire whole, and thus to each and every part regardless of who wrote it.<\/p>\n<p>Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest<br \/>\nyour rights to work written entirely by you; rather, the intent is to<br \/>\nexercise the right to control the distribution of derivative or<br \/>\ncollective works based on the Program.<\/p>\n<p>In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the Program<br \/>\nwith the Program (or with a work based on the Program) on a volume of<br \/>\na storage or distribution medium does not bring the other work under<br \/>\nthe scope of this License.<\/p>\n<p>3. You may copy and distribute the Program (or a work based on it,<br \/>\nunder Section 2) in object code or executable form under the terms of<br \/>\nSections 1 and 2 above provided that you also do one of the following:<\/p>\n<p>a) Accompany it with the complete corresponding machine-readable<br \/>\nsource code, which must be distributed under the terms of Sections<br \/>\n1 and 2 above on a medium customarily used for software interchange; or,<\/p>\n<p>b) Accompany it with a written offer, valid for at least three<br \/>\nyears, to give any third party, for a charge no more than your<br \/>\ncost of physically performing source distribution, a complete<br \/>\nmachine-readable copy of the corresponding source code, to be<br \/>\ndistributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium<br \/>\ncustomarily used for software interchange; or,<\/p>\n<p>c) Accompany it with the information you received as to the offer<br \/>\nto distribute corresponding source code. (This alternative is<br \/>\nallowed only for noncommercial distribution and only if you<br \/>\nreceived the program in object code or executable form with such<br \/>\nan offer, in accord with Subsection b above.)<\/p>\n<p>The source code for a work means the preferred form of the work for<br \/>\nmaking modifications to it. For an executable work, complete source<br \/>\ncode means all the source code for all modules it contains, plus any<br \/>\nassociated interface definition files, plus the scripts used to<br \/>\ncontrol compilation and installation of the executable. However, as a<br \/>\nspecial exception, the source code distributed need not include<br \/>\nanything that is normally distributed (in either source or binary<br \/>\nform) with the major components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of the<br \/>\noperating system on which the executable runs, unless that component<br \/>\nitself accompanies the executable.<\/p>\n<p>If distribution of executable or object code is made by offering<br \/>\naccess to copy from a designated place, then offering equivalent<br \/>\naccess to copy the source code from the same place counts as<br \/>\ndistribution of the source code, even though third parties are not<br \/>\ncompelled to copy the source along with the object code.<\/p>\n<p>4. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the Program<br \/>\nexcept as expressly provided under this License. Any attempt<br \/>\notherwise to copy, modify, sublicense or distribute the Program is<br \/>\nvoid, and will automatically terminate your rights under this License.<br \/>\nHowever, parties who have received copies, or rights, from you under<br \/>\nthis License will not have their licenses terminated so long as such<br \/>\nparties remain in full compliance.<\/p>\n<p>5. You are not required to accept this License, since you have not<br \/>\nsigned it. However, nothing else grants you permission to modify or<br \/>\ndistribute the Program or its derivative works. These actions are<br \/>\nprohibited by law if you do not accept this License. Therefore, by<br \/>\nmodifying or distributing the Program (or any work based on the<br \/>\nProgram), you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so, and<br \/>\nall its terms and conditions for copying, distributing or modifying<br \/>\nthe Program or works based on it.<\/p>\n<p>6. Each time you redistribute the Program (or any work based on the<br \/>\nProgram), the recipient automatically receives a license from the<br \/>\noriginal licensor to copy, distribute or modify the Program subject to<br \/>\nthese terms and conditions. You may not impose any further<br \/>\nrestrictions on the recipients&#8216; exercise of the rights granted herein.<br \/>\nYou are not responsible for enforcing compliance by third parties to<br \/>\nthis License.<\/p>\n<p>7. If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent<br \/>\ninfringement or for any other reason (not limited to patent issues),<br \/>\nconditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or<br \/>\notherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not<br \/>\nexcuse you from the conditions of this License. If you cannot<br \/>\ndistribute so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this<br \/>\nLicense and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you<br \/>\nmay not distribute the Program at all. For example, if a patent<br \/>\nlicense would not permit royalty-free redistribution of the Program by<br \/>\nall those who receive copies directly or indirectly through you, then<br \/>\nthe only way you could satisfy both it and this License would be to<br \/>\nrefrain entirely from distribution of the Program.<\/p>\n<p>If any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable under<br \/>\nany particular circumstance, the balance of the section is intended to<br \/>\napply and the section as a whole is intended to apply in other<br \/>\ncircumstances.<\/p>\n<p>It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe any<br \/>\npatents or other property right claims or to contest validity of any<br \/>\nsuch claims; this section has the sole purpose of protecting the<br \/>\nintegrity of the free software distribution system, which is<br \/>\nimplemented by public license practices. Many people have made<br \/>\ngenerous contributions to the wide range of software distributed<br \/>\nthrough that system in reliance on consistent application of that<br \/>\nsystem; it is up to the author\/donor to decide if he or she is willing<br \/>\nto distribute software through any other system and a licensee cannot<br \/>\nimpose that choice.<\/p>\n<p>This section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is believed to<br \/>\nbe a consequence of the rest of this License.<\/p>\n<p>8. If the distribution and\/or use of the Program is restricted in<br \/>\ncertain countries either by patents or by copyrighted interfaces, the<br \/>\noriginal copyright holder who places the Program under this License<br \/>\nmay add an explicit geographical distribution limitation excluding<br \/>\nthose countries, so that distribution is permitted only in or among<br \/>\ncountries not thus excluded. In such case, this License incorporates<br \/>\nthe limitation as if written in the body of this License.<\/p>\n<p>9. The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and\/or new versions<br \/>\nof the General Public License from time to time. Such new versions will<br \/>\nbe similar in spirit to the present version, but may differ in detail to<br \/>\naddress new problems or concerns.<\/p>\n<p>Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the Program<br \/>\nspecifies a version number of this License which applies to it and &#8222;any<br \/>\nlater version&#8220;, you have the option of following the terms and conditions<br \/>\neither of that version or of any later version published by the Free<br \/>\nSoftware Foundation. If the Program does not specify a version number of<br \/>\nthis License, you may choose any version ever published by the Free Software<br \/>\nFoundation.<\/p>\n<p>10. If you wish to incorporate parts of the Program into other free<br \/>\nprograms whose distribution conditions are different, write to the author<br \/>\nto ask for permission. For software which is copyrighted by the Free<br \/>\nSoftware Foundation, write to the Free Software Foundation; we sometimes<br \/>\nmake exceptions for this. Our decision will be guided by the two goals<br \/>\nof preserving the free status of all derivatives of our free software and<br \/>\nof promoting the sharing and reuse of software generally.<\/p>\n<p>NO WARRANTY<\/p>\n<p>11. BECAUSE THE PROGRAM IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE, THERE IS NO WARRANTY<br \/>\nFOR THE PROGRAM, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW. EXCEPT WHEN<br \/>\nOTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS AND\/OR OTHER PARTIES<br \/>\nPROVIDE THE PROGRAM &#8222;AS IS&#8220; WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED<br \/>\nOR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF<br \/>\nMERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. THE ENTIRE RISK AS<br \/>\nTO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE PROGRAM IS WITH YOU. SHOULD THE<br \/>\nPROGRAM PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE COST OF ALL NECESSARY SERVICING,<br \/>\nREPAIR OR CORRECTION.<\/p>\n<p>12. IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN WRITING<br \/>\nWILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MAY MODIFY AND\/OR<br \/>\nREDISTRIBUTE THE PROGRAM AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES,<br \/>\nINCLUDING ANY GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING<br \/>\nOUT OF THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED<br \/>\nTO LOSS OF DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY<br \/>\nYOU OR THIRD PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF THE PROGRAM TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER<br \/>\nPROGRAMS), EVEN IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE<br \/>\nPOSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.<\/p>\n<p>END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE Version 2, June 1991 Copyright (C) 1989, 1991 Free Software Foundation, Inc. 675 Mass Ave, Cambridge, MA 02139, USA Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":185,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-380","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.hsu-hh.de\/hisalt\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/380","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.hsu-hh.de\/hisalt\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.hsu-hh.de\/hisalt\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.hsu-hh.de\/hisalt\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/185"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.hsu-hh.de\/hisalt\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=380"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.hsu-hh.de\/hisalt\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/380\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":381,"href":"https:\/\/www.hsu-hh.de\/hisalt\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/380\/revisions\/381"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.hsu-hh.de\/hisalt\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=380"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.hsu-hh.de\/hisalt\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=380"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.hsu-hh.de\/hisalt\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=380"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
