Appendix D - GPL Code Statement
Preamble
 The GNU General Public License is a free, copyleft license for software and other kinds of works.
The licenses for most software and other practical works are designed to take away your freedom to share and change the 
works. By contrast, the GNU General Public License is intended to guarantee your freedom to share and change all versions 
of a program--to make sure it remains free software for all its users.  We, the Free Software...

Appendix D - GPL Code Statement
Finally, every program is threatened constantly by software patents. States should not allow patents to restrict development 
and use of software on general-purpose computers, but in those that do, we wish to avoid the special danger that patents 
applied to a free program could make it effectively proprietary.  To prevent this, the GPL assures that patents cannot be used 
to render the program non-free.
The precise terms and conditions for...

case of interfaces specified for a particular programming language, one that is widely used among developers working in that 
language.
The “System...

A “User Product” is either (1) a “consumer product”, which means any tangible personal property which is normally used for 
personal, family, or household purposes, or (2) anything designed or sold for incorporation into a dwelling.  In determining 
whether  a  product  is  a  consumer  product,  doubtful  cases  shall  be  resolved  in  favor  of  coverage.    For  a  particular  product

conditions. Additional permissions that are applicable to the entire Program shall be treated as though they were included in

further  restriction,  you  may  remove  that  term.    If  a  license  document  contains  a  further  restriction  but  permits  relicensing
