    47 <p class="p1"><span class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>For example, if you distribute copies of such a program, whether</p>

    86 <p class="p1">Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are not</p>
    87 <p class="p1">covered by this License; they are outside its scope.<span class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>The act of</p>
    88 <p class="p1">running the Program is not restricted, and the output from the Program</p>
    89 <p class="p1">is covered only if its contents constitute a work based on the</p>

    104 <p class="p1"><span class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>2. You may modify your copy or copies of the Program or any portion</p>

    109 <p class="p1"><span class="Apple-converted-space">    </span>a) You must cause the modified files to carry prominent notices</p>

    111 <p class="p2"><br></p>
    112 <p class="p1"><span class="Apple-converted-space">    </span>b) You must cause any work that you distribute or publish, that in</p>

    118 <p class="p1"><span class="Apple-converted-space">    </span>when run, you must cause it, when started running for such</p>
    119 <p class="p1"><span class="Apple-converted-space">    </span>interactive use in the most ordinary way, to print or display an</p>

    122 <p class="p1"><span class="Apple-converted-space">    </span>a warranty) and that users may redistribute the program under</p>
    123 <p class="p1"><span class="Apple-converted-space">    </span>these conditions, and telling the user how to view a copy of this</p>
    124 <p class="p1"><span class="Apple-converted-space">    </span>License.<span class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>(Exception: if the Program itself is interactive but</p>

    127 <p class="p2"><br></p>
    128 <p class="p1">These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole.<span class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>If</p>
    129 <p class="p1">identifiable sections of that work are not derived from the Program,</p>
    130 <p class="p1">and can be reasonably considered independent and separate works in</p>
    131 <p class="p1">themselves, then this License, and its terms, do not apply to those</p>
    132 <p class="p1">sections when you distribute them as separate works.<span class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>But when you</p>
    133 <p class="p1">distribute the same sections as part of a whole which is a work based</p>
    134 <p class="p1">on the Program, the distribution of the whole must be on the terms of</p>
    135 <p class="p1">this License, whose permissions for other licensees extend to the</p>

    137 <p class="p2"><br></p>
    138 <p class="p1">Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest</p>
    139 <p class="p1">your rights to work written entirely by you; rather, the intent is to</p>
    140 <p class="p1">exercise the right to control the distribution of derivative or</p>
    141 <p class="p1">collective works based on the Program.</p>

    143 <p class="p1">In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the Program</p>

    147 <p class="p2"><br></p>
    148 <p class="p1"><span class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>3. You may copy and distribute the Program (or a work based on it,</p>

    162 <p class="p2"><br></p>
    163 <p class="p1"><span class="Apple-converted-space">    </span>c) Accompany it with the information you received as to the offer</p>

    166 <p class="p1"><span class="Apple-converted-space">    </span>received the program in object code or executable form with such</p>
    167 <p class="p1"><span class="Apple-converted-space">    </span>an offer, in accord with Subsection b above.)</p>
    168 <p class="p2"><br></p>
    169 <p class="p1">The source code for a work means the preferred form of the work for</p>

    173 <p class="p1">control compilation and installation of the executable.<span class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>However, as a</p>
    174 <p class="p1">special exception, the source code distributed need not include</p>
    175 <p class="p1">anything that is normally distributed (in either source or binary</p>
    176 <p class="p1">form) with the major components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of the</p>
    177 <p class="p1">operating system on which the executable runs, unless that component</p>
    178 <p class="p1">itself accompanies the executable.</p>
    179 <p class="p2"><br></p>
    180 <p class="p1">If distribution of executable or object code is made by offering</p>
    181 <p class="p1">access to copy from a designated place, then offering equivalent</p>
    182 <p class="p1">access to copy the source code from the same place counts as</p>
    183 <p class="p1">distribution of the source code, even though third parties are not</p>

    188 <p class="p1">otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense or distribute the Program is</p>

    190 <p class="p1">However, parties who have received copies, or rights, from you under</p>

    193 <p class="p2"><br></p>
    194 <p class="p1"><span class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>5. You are not required to accept this License, since you have not</p>

     12<body>Preliminary notes:<br>
     13<br>
     141) The majority of code in the VirtualBox Open Source Edition (OSE) is<br>
     15copyrighted by Oracle Corporation. This code is combined with third-party code<br>
     16that was originally released under licenses which the Free Software Foundation<br>
     17considers incompatible with the GPL, such as the Apache License 2.0, the OpenSSL<br>
     18license, the Mozilla Public License (MPL) and the Slirp license. (Please see the<br>
     19VirtualBox User Manual for a complete list of third-party code and their<br>
     20licenses.) As a special exception to the terms and conditions of the GPL listed<br>
     21below, Oracle gives you explicit permission to combine its GPL code contained in<br>
     22VirtualBox OSE with third-party code under the aforementioned licenses. You may<br>
     23copy and distribute such a combination provided that you adhere to the terms and<br>
     24conditions of all of the GPL and the licenses of the third-party code; in<br>
     25particular, you must include the source code of the entire combination insofar<br>
     26as the GPL requires distribution of source code.<br>
     27<br>
     282) The GPL listed below does not bind software which uses VirtualBox services by<br>
     29merely linking to VirtualBox libraries so long as all VirtualBox interfaces used<br>
     30by that software are multi-licensed. A VirtualBox interface is deemed<br>
     31multi-licensed if it is declared in a VirtualBox header file that is licensed<br>
     32under both the GPL version 2 (below) *and* the Common Development and<br>
     33Distribution License Version 1.0 (CDDL), as it comes in the &quot;COPYING.CDDL&quot; file.<br>
     34In other words, calling such a multi-licensed interface is merely considered<br>
     35normal use of VirtualBox and does not turn the calling code into a derived work<br>
     36of VirtualBox. In particular, this applies to code that wants to extend<br>
     37VirtualBox by way of the Extension Pack mechanism declared in the ExtPack.h<br>
     38header file.<br>
     39<br>
     403) Whoever creates or distributes a derived work based on VirtualBox OSE is not<br>
     41obligated to grant the above exceptions for such a version. The GPL allows for<br>
     42releasing a modified version without the above exception; in addition, Oracle<br>
     43hereby also allows you to release a modified version which carries forward these<br>
     44exceptions.<br>

     50 GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE<br>
     51 Version 2, June 1991<br>
     52<br>
     53 Copyright (C) 1989, 1991 Free Software Foundation, Inc.,<br>
     54 51 Franklin Street, Fifth Floor, Boston, MA 02110-1301 USA<br>
     55 Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies<br>
     56 of this license document, but changing it is not allowed.<br>
     57<br>
     58 Preamble<br>
     59<br>
     60 The licenses for most software are designed to take away your<br>
     61freedom to share and change it. By contrast, the GNU General Public<br>
     62License is intended to guarantee your freedom to share and change free<br>
     63software--to make sure the software is free for all its users. This<br>
     64General Public License applies to most of the Free Software<br>
     65Foundation's software and to any other program whose authors commit to<br>
     66using it. (Some other Free Software Foundation software is covered by<br>
     67the GNU Lesser General Public License instead.) You can apply it to<br>
     68your programs, too.<br>
     69<br>
     70 When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not<br>
     71price. Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that you<br>
     72have the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge for<br>
     73this service if you wish), that you receive source code or can get it<br>
     74if you want it, that you can change the software or use pieces of it<br>
     75in new free programs; and that you know you can do these things.<br>
     76<br>
     77 To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that forbid<br>
     78anyone to deny you these rights or to ask you to surrender the rights.<br>
     79These restrictions translate to certain responsibilities for you if you<br>
     80distribute copies of the software, or if you modify it.<br>
     81<br>
     82 For example, if you distribute copies of such a program, whether<br>
     83gratis or for a fee, you must give the recipients all the rights that<br>
     84you have. You must make sure that they, too, receive or can get the<br>
     85source code. And you must show them these terms so they know their<br>
     86rights.<br>
     87<br>
     88 We protect your rights with two steps: (1) copyright the software, and<br>
     89(2) offer you this license which gives you legal permission to copy,<br>
     90distribute and/or modify the software.<br>
     91<br>
     92 Also, for each author's protection and ours, we want to make certain<br>
     93that everyone understands that there is no warranty for this free<br>
     94software. If the software is modified by someone else and passed on, we<br>
     95want its recipients to know that what they have is not the original, so<br>
     96that any problems introduced by others will not reflect on the original<br>
     97authors' reputations.<br>
     98<br>
     99 Finally, any free program is threatened constantly by software<br>
     100patents. We wish to avoid the danger that redistributors of a free<br>
     101program will individually obtain patent licenses, in effect making the<br>
     102program proprietary. To prevent this, we have made it clear that any<br>
     103patent must be licensed for everyone's free use or not licensed at all.<br>
     104<br>
     105 The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and<br>
     106modification follow.<br>
     107<br>
     108 GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE<br>
     109 TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION<br>
     110<br>
     111 0. This License applies to any program or other work which contains<br>
     112a notice placed by the copyright holder saying it may be distributed<br>
     113under the terms of this General Public License. The &quot;Program&quot;, below,<br>
     114refers to any such program or work, and a &quot;work based on the Program&quot;<br>
     115means either the Program or any derivative work under copyright law:<br>
     116that is to say, a work containing the Program or a portion of it,<br>
     117either verbatim or with modifications and/or translated into another<br>
     118language. (Hereinafter, translation is included without limitation in<br>
     119the term &quot;modification&quot;.) Each licensee is addressed as &quot;you&quot;.<br>
     120<br>
     121Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are not<br>
     122covered by this License; they are outside its scope. The act of<br>
     123running the Program is not restricted, and the output from the Program<br>
     124is covered only if its contents constitute a work based on the<br>
     125Program (independent of having been made by running the Program).<br>
     126Whether that is true depends on what the Program does.<br>
     127<br>
     128 1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Program's<br>
     129source code as you receive it, in any medium, provided that you<br>
     130conspicuously and appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate<br>
     131copyright notice and disclaimer of warranty; keep intact all the<br>
     132notices that refer to this License and to the absence of any warranty;<br>
     133and give any other recipients of the Program a copy of this License<br>
     134along with the Program.<br>
     135<br>
     136You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy, and<br>
     137you may at your option offer warranty protection in exchange for a fee.<br>
     138<br>
     139 2. You may modify your copy or copies of the Program or any portion<br>
     140of it, thus forming a work based on the Program, and copy and<br>
     141distribute such modifications or work under the terms of Section 1<br>
     142above, provided that you also meet all of these conditions:<br>
     143<br>
     144 a) You must cause the modified files to carry prominent notices<br>
     145 stating that you changed the files and the date of any change.<br>
     146<br>
     147 b) You must cause any work that you distribute or publish, that in<br>
     148 whole or in part contains or is derived from the Program or any<br>
     149 part thereof, to be licensed as a whole at no charge to all third<br>
     150 parties under the terms of this License.<br>
     151<br>
     152 c) If the modified program normally reads commands interactively<br>
     153 when run, you must cause it, when started running for such<br>
     154 interactive use in the most ordinary way, to print or display an<br>
     155 announcement including an appropriate copyright notice and a<br>
     156 notice that there is no warranty (or else, saying that you provide<br>
     157 a warranty) and that users may redistribute the program under<br>
     158 these conditions, and telling the user how to view a copy of this<br>
     159 License. (Exception: if the Program itself is interactive but<br>
     160 does not normally print such an announcement, your work based on<br>
     161 the Program is not required to print an announcement.)<br>
     162<br>
     163These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole. If<br>
     164identifiable sections of that work are not derived from the Program,<br>
     165and can be reasonably considered independent and separate works in<br>
     166themselves, then this License, and its terms, do not apply to those<br>
     167sections when you distribute them as separate works. But when you<br>
     168distribute the same sections as part of a whole which is a work based<br>
     169on the Program, the distribution of the whole must be on the terms of<br>
     170this License, whose permissions for other licensees extend to the<br>
     171entire whole, and thus to each and every part regardless of who wrote it.<br>
     172<br>
     173Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest<br>
     174your rights to work written entirely by you; rather, the intent is to<br>
     175exercise the right to control the distribution of derivative or<br>
     176collective works based on the Program.<br>
     177<br>
     178In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the Program<br>
     179with the Program (or with a work based on the Program) on a volume of<br>
     180a storage or distribution medium does not bring the other work under<br>
     181the scope of this License.<br>
     182<br>
     183 3. You may copy and distribute the Program (or a work based on it,<br>
     184under Section 2) in object code or executable form under the terms of<br>
     185Sections 1 and 2 above provided that you also do one of the following:<br>
     186<br>
     187 a) Accompany it with the complete corresponding machine-readable<br>
     188 source code, which must be distributed under the terms of Sections<br>
     189 1 and 2 above on a medium customarily used for software interchange; or,<br>
     190<br>
     191 b) Accompany it with a written offer, valid for at least three<br>
     192 years, to give any third party, for a charge no more than your<br>
     193 cost of physically performing source distribution, a complete<br>
     194 machine-readable copy of the corresponding source code, to be<br>
     195 distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium<br>
     196 customarily used for software interchange; or,<br>
     197<br>
     198 c) Accompany it with the information you received as to the offer<br>
     199 to distribute corresponding source code. (This alternative is<br>
     200 allowed only for noncommercial distribution and only if you<br>
     201 received the program in object code or executable form with such<br>
     202 an offer, in accord with Subsection b above.)<br>
     203<br>
     204The source code for a work means the preferred form of the work for<br>
     205making modifications to it. For an executable work, complete source<br>
     206code means all the source code for all modules it contains, plus any<br>
     207associated interface definition files, plus the scripts used to<br>
     208control compilation and installation of the executable. However, as a<br>
     209special exception, the source code distributed need not include<br>
     210anything that is normally distributed (in either source or binary<br>
     211form) with the major components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of the<br>
     212operating system on which the executable runs, unless that component<br>
     213itself accompanies the executable.<br>
     214<br>
     215If distribution of executable or object code is made by offering<br>
     216access to copy from a designated place, then offering equivalent<br>
     217access to copy the source code from the same place counts as<br>
     218distribution of the source code, even though third parties are not<br>
     219compelled to copy the source along with the object code.<br>
     220<br>
     221 4. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the Program<br>
     222except as expressly provided under this License. Any attempt<br>
     223otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense or distribute the Program is<br>
     224void, and will automatically terminate your rights under this License.<br>
     225However, parties who have received copies, or rights, from you under<br>
     226this License will not have their licenses terminated so long as such<br>
     227parties remain in full compliance.<br>
     228<br>
     229 5. You are not required to accept this License, since you have not<br>
     230signed it. However, nothing else grants you permission to modify or<br>
     231distribute the Program or its derivative works. These actions are<br>
     232prohibited by law if you do not accept this License. Therefore, by<br>
     233modifying or distributing the Program (or any work based on the<br>
     234Program), you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so, and<br>
     235all its terms and conditions for copying, distributing or modifying<br>
     236the Program or works based on it.<br>
     237<br>
     238 6. Each time you redistribute the Program (or any work based on the<br>
     239Program), the recipient automatically receives a license from the<br>
     240original licensor to copy, distribute or modify the Program subject to<br>
     241these terms and conditions. You may not impose any further<br>
     242restrictions on the recipients' exercise of the rights granted herein.<br>
     243You are not responsible for enforcing compliance by third parties to<br>
     244this License.<br>
     245<br>
     246 7. If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent<br>
     247infringement or for any other reason (not limited to patent issues),<br>
     248conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or<br>
     249otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not<br>
     250excuse you from the conditions of this License. If you cannot<br>
     251distribute so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this<br>
     252License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you<br>
     253may not distribute the Program at all. For example, if a patent<br>
     254license would not permit royalty-free redistribution of the Program by<br>
     255all those who receive copies directly or indirectly through you, then<br>
     256the only way you could satisfy both it and this License would be to<br>
     257refrain entirely from distribution of the Program.<br>
     258<br>
     259If any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable under<br>
     260any particular circumstance, the balance of the section is intended to<br>
     261apply and the section as a whole is intended to apply in other<br>
     262circumstances.<br>
     263<br>
     264It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe any<br>
     265patents or other property right claims or to contest validity of any<br>
     266such claims; this section has the sole purpose of protecting the<br>
     267integrity of the free software distribution system, which is<br>
     268implemented by public license practices. Many people have made<br>
     269generous contributions to the wide range of software distributed<br>
     270through that system in reliance on consistent application of that<br>
     271system; it is up to the author/donor to decide if he or she is willing<br>
     272to distribute software through any other system and a licensee cannot<br>
     273impose that choice.<br>
     274<br>
     275This section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is believed to<br>
     276be a consequence of the rest of this License.<br>
     277<br>
     278 8. If the distribution and/or use of the Program is restricted in<br>
     279certain countries either by patents or by copyrighted interfaces, the<br>
     280original copyright holder who places the Program under this License<br>
     281may add an explicit geographical distribution limitation excluding<br>
     282those countries, so that distribution is permitted only in or among<br>
     283countries not thus excluded. In such case, this License incorporates<br>
     284the limitation as if written in the body of this License.<br>
     285<br>
     286 9. The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions<br>
     287of the General Public License from time to time. Such new versions will<br>
     288be similar in spirit to the present version, but may differ in detail to<br>
     289address new problems or concerns.<br>
     290<br>
     291Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the Program<br>
     292specifies a version number of this License which applies to it and &quot;any<br>
     293later version&quot;, you have the option of following the terms and conditions<br>
     294either of that version or of any later version published by the Free<br>
     295Software Foundation. If the Program does not specify a version number of<br>
     296this License, you may choose any version ever published by the Free Software<br>
     297Foundation.<br>
     298<br>
     299 10. If you wish to incorporate parts of the Program into other free<br>
     300programs whose distribution conditions are different, write to the author<br>
     301to ask for permission. For software which is copyrighted by the Free<br>
     302Software Foundation, write to the Free Software Foundation; we sometimes<br>
     303make exceptions for this. Our decision will be guided by the two goals<br>
     304of preserving the free status of all derivatives of our free software and<br>
     305of promoting the sharing and reuse of software generally.<br>
     306<br>
     307 NO WARRANTY<br>
     308<br>
     309 11. BECAUSE THE PROGRAM IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE, THERE IS NO WARRANTY<br>
     310FOR THE PROGRAM, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW. EXCEPT WHEN<br>
     311OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER PARTIES<br>
     312PROVIDE THE PROGRAM &quot;AS IS&quot; WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED<br>
     313OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF<br>
     314MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. THE ENTIRE RISK AS<br>
     315TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE PROGRAM IS WITH YOU. SHOULD THE<br>
     316PROGRAM PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE COST OF ALL NECESSARY SERVICING,<br>
     317REPAIR OR CORRECTION.<br>
     318<br>
     319 12. IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN WRITING<br>
     320WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MAY MODIFY AND/OR<br>
     321REDISTRIBUTE THE PROGRAM AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES,<br>
     322INCLUDING ANY GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING<br>
     323OUT OF THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED<br>
     324TO LOSS OF DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY<br>
     325YOU OR THIRD PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF THE PROGRAM TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER<br>
     326PROGRAMS), EVEN IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE<br>
     327POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.<br>
     328<br>
     329 END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS<br>
     330<br>
     331 How to Apply These Terms to Your New Programs<br>
     332<br>
     333 If you develop a new program, and you want it to be of the greatest<br>
     334possible use to the public, the best way to achieve this is to make it<br>
     335free software which everyone can redistribute and change under these terms.<br>
     336<br>
     337 To do so, attach the following notices to the program. It is safest<br>
     338to attach them to the start of each source file to most effectively<br>
     339convey the exclusion of warranty; and each file should have at least<br>
     340the &quot;copyright&quot; line and a pointer to where the full notice is found.<br>
     341<br>
     342 &lt;one line to give the program's name and a brief idea of what it does.&gt;<br>
     343 Copyright (C) &lt;year&gt; &lt;name of author&gt;<br>
     344<br>
     345 This program is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify<br>
     346 it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by<br>
     347 the Free Software Foundation; either version 2 of the License, or<br>
     348 (at your option) any later version.<br>
     349<br>
     350 This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful,<br>
     351 but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of<br>
     352 MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. See the<br>
     353 GNU General Public License for more details.<br>
     354<br>
     355 You should have received a copy of the GNU General Public License along<br>
     356 with this program; if not, write to the Free Software Foundation, Inc.,<br>
     357 51 Franklin Street, Fifth Floor, Boston, MA 02110-1301 USA.<br>
     358<br>
     359Also add information on how to contact you by electronic and paper mail.<br>
     360<br>
     361If the program is interactive, make it output a short notice like this<br>
     362when it starts in an interactive mode:<br>
     363<br>
     364 Gnomovision version 69, Copyright (C) year name of author<br>
     365 Gnomovision comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY; for details type `show w'.<br>
     366 This is free software, and you are welcome to redistribute it<br>
     367 under certain conditions; type `show c' for details.<br>
     368<br>
     369The hypothetical commands `show w' and `show c' should show the appropriate<br>
     370parts of the General Public License. Of course, the commands you use may<br>
     371be called something other than `show w' and `show c'; they could even be<br>
     372mouse-clicks or menu items--whatever suits your program.<br>
     373<br>
     374You should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer) or your<br>
     375school, if any, to sign a &quot;copyright disclaimer&quot; for the program, if<br>
     376necessary. Here is a sample; alter the names:<br>
     377<br>
     378 Yoyodyne, Inc., hereby disclaims all copyright interest in the program<br>
     379 `Gnomovision' (which makes passes at compilers) written by James Hacker.<br>
     380<br>
     381 &lt;signature of Ty Coon&gt;, 1 April 1989<br>
     382 Ty Coon, President of Vice<br>
     383<br>
     384This General Public License does not permit incorporating your program into<br>
     385proprietary programs. If your program is a subroutine library, you may<br>
     386consider it more useful to permit linking proprietary applications with the<br>
     387library. If this is what you want to do, use the GNU Lesser General<br>
     388Public License instead of this License.<br>
