12 | <body>Preliminary notes:<br>
|
---|
13 | <br>
|
---|
14 | 1) The majority of code in the VirtualBox Open Source Edition (OSE) is<br>
|
---|
15 | copyrighted by Oracle Corporation. This code is combined with third-party code<br>
|
---|
16 | that was originally released under licenses which the Free Software Foundation<br>
|
---|
17 | considers incompatible with the GPL, such as the Apache License 2.0, the OpenSSL<br>
|
---|
18 | license, the Mozilla Public License (MPL) and the Slirp license. (Please see the<br>
|
---|
19 | VirtualBox User Manual for a complete list of third-party code and their<br>
|
---|
20 | licenses.) As a special exception to the terms and conditions of the GPL listed<br>
|
---|
21 | below, Oracle gives you explicit permission to combine its GPL code contained in<br>
|
---|
22 | VirtualBox OSE with third-party code under the aforementioned licenses. You may<br>
|
---|
23 | copy and distribute such a combination provided that you adhere to the terms and<br>
|
---|
24 | conditions of all of the GPL and the licenses of the third-party code; in<br>
|
---|
25 | particular, you must include the source code of the entire combination insofar<br>
|
---|
26 | as the GPL requires distribution of source code.<br>
|
---|
27 | <br>
|
---|
28 | 2) The GPL listed below does not bind software which uses VirtualBox services by<br>
|
---|
29 | merely linking to VirtualBox libraries so long as all VirtualBox interfaces used<br>
|
---|
30 | by that software are multi-licensed. A VirtualBox interface is deemed<br>
|
---|
31 | multi-licensed if it is declared in a VirtualBox header file that is licensed<br>
|
---|
32 | under both the GPL version 2 (below) *and* the Common Development and<br>
|
---|
33 | Distribution License Version 1.0 (CDDL), as it comes in the "COPYING.CDDL" file.<br>
|
---|
34 | In other words, calling such a multi-licensed interface is merely considered<br>
|
---|
35 | normal use of VirtualBox and does not turn the calling code into a derived work<br>
|
---|
36 | of VirtualBox. In particular, this applies to code that wants to extend<br>
|
---|
37 | VirtualBox by way of the Extension Pack mechanism declared in the ExtPack.h<br>
|
---|
38 | header file.<br>
|
---|
39 | <br>
|
---|
40 | 3) Whoever creates or distributes a derived work based on VirtualBox OSE is not<br>
|
---|
41 | obligated to grant the above exceptions for such a version. The GPL allows for<br>
|
---|
42 | releasing a modified version without the above exception; in addition, Oracle<br>
|
---|
43 | hereby also allows you to release a modified version which carries forward these<br>
|
---|
44 | exceptions.<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>
|
---|
61 | freedom to share and change it. By contrast, the GNU General Public<br>
|
---|
62 | License is intended to guarantee your freedom to share and change free<br>
|
---|
63 | software--to make sure the software is free for all its users. This<br>
|
---|
64 | General Public License applies to most of the Free Software<br>
|
---|
65 | Foundation's software and to any other program whose authors commit to<br>
|
---|
66 | using it. (Some other Free Software Foundation software is covered by<br>
|
---|
67 | the GNU Lesser General Public License instead.) You can apply it to<br>
|
---|
68 | your programs, too.<br>
|
---|
69 | <br>
|
---|
70 | When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not<br>
|
---|
71 | price. Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that you<br>
|
---|
72 | have the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge for<br>
|
---|
73 | this service if you wish), that you receive source code or can get it<br>
|
---|
74 | if you want it, that you can change the software or use pieces of it<br>
|
---|
75 | in 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>
|
---|
78 | anyone to deny you these rights or to ask you to surrender the rights.<br>
|
---|
79 | These restrictions translate to certain responsibilities for you if you<br>
|
---|
80 | distribute 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>
|
---|
83 | gratis or for a fee, you must give the recipients all the rights that<br>
|
---|
84 | you have. You must make sure that they, too, receive or can get the<br>
|
---|
85 | source code. And you must show them these terms so they know their<br>
|
---|
86 | rights.<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>
|
---|
90 | distribute and/or modify the software.<br>
|
---|
91 | <br>
|
---|
92 | Also, for each author's protection and ours, we want to make certain<br>
|
---|
93 | that everyone understands that there is no warranty for this free<br>
|
---|
94 | software. If the software is modified by someone else and passed on, we<br>
|
---|
95 | want its recipients to know that what they have is not the original, so<br>
|
---|
96 | that any problems introduced by others will not reflect on the original<br>
|
---|
97 | authors' reputations.<br>
|
---|
98 | <br>
|
---|
99 | Finally, any free program is threatened constantly by software<br>
|
---|
100 | patents. We wish to avoid the danger that redistributors of a free<br>
|
---|
101 | program will individually obtain patent licenses, in effect making the<br>
|
---|
102 | program proprietary. To prevent this, we have made it clear that any<br>
|
---|
103 | patent 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>
|
---|
106 | modification 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>
|
---|
112 | a notice placed by the copyright holder saying it may be distributed<br>
|
---|
113 | under the terms of this General Public License. The "Program", below,<br>
|
---|
114 | refers to any such program or work, and a "work based on the Program"<br>
|
---|
115 | means either the Program or any derivative work under copyright law:<br>
|
---|
116 | that is to say, a work containing the Program or a portion of it,<br>
|
---|
117 | either verbatim or with modifications and/or translated into another<br>
|
---|
118 | language. (Hereinafter, translation is included without limitation in<br>
|
---|
119 | the term "modification".) Each licensee is addressed as "you".<br>
|
---|
120 | <br>
|
---|
121 | Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are not<br>
|
---|
122 | covered by this License; they are outside its scope. The act of<br>
|
---|
123 | running the Program is not restricted, and the output from the Program<br>
|
---|
124 | is covered only if its contents constitute a work based on the<br>
|
---|
125 | Program (independent of having been made by running the Program).<br>
|
---|
126 | Whether 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>
|
---|
129 | source code as you receive it, in any medium, provided that you<br>
|
---|
130 | conspicuously and appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate<br>
|
---|
131 | copyright notice and disclaimer of warranty; keep intact all the<br>
|
---|
132 | notices that refer to this License and to the absence of any warranty;<br>
|
---|
133 | and give any other recipients of the Program a copy of this License<br>
|
---|
134 | along with the Program.<br>
|
---|
135 | <br>
|
---|
136 | You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy, and<br>
|
---|
137 | you 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>
|
---|
140 | of it, thus forming a work based on the Program, and copy and<br>
|
---|
141 | distribute such modifications or work under the terms of Section 1<br>
|
---|
142 | above, 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>
|
---|
163 | These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole. If<br>
|
---|
164 | identifiable sections of that work are not derived from the Program,<br>
|
---|
165 | and can be reasonably considered independent and separate works in<br>
|
---|
166 | themselves, then this License, and its terms, do not apply to those<br>
|
---|
167 | sections when you distribute them as separate works. But when you<br>
|
---|
168 | distribute the same sections as part of a whole which is a work based<br>
|
---|
169 | on the Program, the distribution of the whole must be on the terms of<br>
|
---|
170 | this License, whose permissions for other licensees extend to the<br>
|
---|
171 | entire whole, and thus to each and every part regardless of who wrote it.<br>
|
---|
172 | <br>
|
---|
173 | Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest<br>
|
---|
174 | your rights to work written entirely by you; rather, the intent is to<br>
|
---|
175 | exercise the right to control the distribution of derivative or<br>
|
---|
176 | collective works based on the Program.<br>
|
---|
177 | <br>
|
---|
178 | In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the Program<br>
|
---|
179 | with the Program (or with a work based on the Program) on a volume of<br>
|
---|
180 | a storage or distribution medium does not bring the other work under<br>
|
---|
181 | the scope of this License.<br>
|
---|
182 | <br>
|
---|
183 | 3. You may copy and distribute the Program (or a work based on it,<br>
|
---|
184 | under Section 2) in object code or executable form under the terms of<br>
|
---|
185 | Sections 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>
|
---|
204 | The source code for a work means the preferred form of the work for<br>
|
---|
205 | making modifications to it. For an executable work, complete source<br>
|
---|
206 | code means all the source code for all modules it contains, plus any<br>
|
---|
207 | associated interface definition files, plus the scripts used to<br>
|
---|
208 | control compilation and installation of the executable. However, as a<br>
|
---|
209 | special exception, the source code distributed need not include<br>
|
---|
210 | anything that is normally distributed (in either source or binary<br>
|
---|
211 | form) with the major components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of the<br>
|
---|
212 | operating system on which the executable runs, unless that component<br>
|
---|
213 | itself accompanies the executable.<br>
|
---|
214 | <br>
|
---|
215 | If distribution of executable or object code is made by offering<br>
|
---|
216 | access to copy from a designated place, then offering equivalent<br>
|
---|
217 | access to copy the source code from the same place counts as<br>
|
---|
218 | distribution of the source code, even though third parties are not<br>
|
---|
219 | compelled 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>
|
---|
222 | except as expressly provided under this License. Any attempt<br>
|
---|
223 | otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense or distribute the Program is<br>
|
---|
224 | void, and will automatically terminate your rights under this License.<br>
|
---|
225 | However, parties who have received copies, or rights, from you under<br>
|
---|
226 | this License will not have their licenses terminated so long as such<br>
|
---|
227 | parties remain in full compliance.<br>
|
---|
228 | <br>
|
---|
229 | 5. You are not required to accept this License, since you have not<br>
|
---|
230 | signed it. However, nothing else grants you permission to modify or<br>
|
---|
231 | distribute the Program or its derivative works. These actions are<br>
|
---|
232 | prohibited by law if you do not accept this License. Therefore, by<br>
|
---|
233 | modifying or distributing the Program (or any work based on the<br>
|
---|
234 | Program), you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so, and<br>
|
---|
235 | all its terms and conditions for copying, distributing or modifying<br>
|
---|
236 | the Program or works based on it.<br>
|
---|
237 | <br>
|
---|
238 | 6. Each time you redistribute the Program (or any work based on the<br>
|
---|
239 | Program), the recipient automatically receives a license from the<br>
|
---|
240 | original licensor to copy, distribute or modify the Program subject to<br>
|
---|
241 | these terms and conditions. You may not impose any further<br>
|
---|
242 | restrictions on the recipients' exercise of the rights granted herein.<br>
|
---|
243 | You are not responsible for enforcing compliance by third parties to<br>
|
---|
244 | this License.<br>
|
---|
245 | <br>
|
---|
246 | 7. If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent<br>
|
---|
247 | infringement or for any other reason (not limited to patent issues),<br>
|
---|
248 | conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or<br>
|
---|
249 | otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not<br>
|
---|
250 | excuse you from the conditions of this License. If you cannot<br>
|
---|
251 | distribute so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this<br>
|
---|
252 | License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you<br>
|
---|
253 | may not distribute the Program at all. For example, if a patent<br>
|
---|
254 | license would not permit royalty-free redistribution of the Program by<br>
|
---|
255 | all those who receive copies directly or indirectly through you, then<br>
|
---|
256 | the only way you could satisfy both it and this License would be to<br>
|
---|
257 | refrain entirely from distribution of the Program.<br>
|
---|
258 | <br>
|
---|
259 | If any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable under<br>
|
---|
260 | any particular circumstance, the balance of the section is intended to<br>
|
---|
261 | apply and the section as a whole is intended to apply in other<br>
|
---|
262 | circumstances.<br>
|
---|
263 | <br>
|
---|
264 | It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe any<br>
|
---|
265 | patents or other property right claims or to contest validity of any<br>
|
---|
266 | such claims; this section has the sole purpose of protecting the<br>
|
---|
267 | integrity of the free software distribution system, which is<br>
|
---|
268 | implemented by public license practices. Many people have made<br>
|
---|
269 | generous contributions to the wide range of software distributed<br>
|
---|
270 | through that system in reliance on consistent application of that<br>
|
---|
271 | system; it is up to the author/donor to decide if he or she is willing<br>
|
---|
272 | to distribute software through any other system and a licensee cannot<br>
|
---|
273 | impose that choice.<br>
|
---|
274 | <br>
|
---|
275 | This section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is believed to<br>
|
---|
276 | be 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>
|
---|
279 | certain countries either by patents or by copyrighted interfaces, the<br>
|
---|
280 | original copyright holder who places the Program under this License<br>
|
---|
281 | may add an explicit geographical distribution limitation excluding<br>
|
---|
282 | those countries, so that distribution is permitted only in or among<br>
|
---|
283 | countries not thus excluded. In such case, this License incorporates<br>
|
---|
284 | the 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>
|
---|
287 | of the General Public License from time to time. Such new versions will<br>
|
---|
288 | be similar in spirit to the present version, but may differ in detail to<br>
|
---|
289 | address new problems or concerns.<br>
|
---|
290 | <br>
|
---|
291 | Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the Program<br>
|
---|
292 | specifies a version number of this License which applies to it and "any<br>
|
---|
293 | later version", you have the option of following the terms and conditions<br>
|
---|
294 | either of that version or of any later version published by the Free<br>
|
---|
295 | Software Foundation. If the Program does not specify a version number of<br>
|
---|
296 | this License, you may choose any version ever published by the Free Software<br>
|
---|
297 | Foundation.<br>
|
---|
298 | <br>
|
---|
299 | 10. If you wish to incorporate parts of the Program into other free<br>
|
---|
300 | programs whose distribution conditions are different, write to the author<br>
|
---|
301 | to ask for permission. For software which is copyrighted by the Free<br>
|
---|
302 | Software Foundation, write to the Free Software Foundation; we sometimes<br>
|
---|
303 | make exceptions for this. Our decision will be guided by the two goals<br>
|
---|
304 | of preserving the free status of all derivatives of our free software and<br>
|
---|
305 | of promoting the sharing and reuse of software generally.<br>
|
---|
306 | <br>
|
---|
307 | NO WARRANTY<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>
|
---|
334 | possible use to the public, the best way to achieve this is to make it<br>
|
---|
335 | free 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>
|
---|
338 | to attach them to the start of each source file to most effectively<br>
|
---|
339 | convey the exclusion of warranty; and each file should have at least<br>
|
---|
340 | the "copyright" line and a pointer to where the full notice is found.<br>
|
---|
341 | <br>
|
---|
342 | <one line to give the program's name and a brief idea of what it does.><br>

|
---|

|

|
---|
359 | Also add information on how to contact you by electronic and paper mail.<br>
|
---|
360 | <br>
|
---|
361 | If the program is interactive, make it output a short notice like this<br>
|
---|
362 | when 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>
|
---|
369 | The hypothetical commands `show w' and `show c' should show the appropriate<br>
|
---|
370 | parts of the General Public License. Of course, the commands you use may<br>
|
---|
371 | be called something other than `show w' and `show c'; they could even be<br>
|
---|
372 | mouse-clicks or menu items--whatever suits your program.<br>
|
---|
373 | <br>
|
---|
374 | You should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer) or your<br>
|
---|
375 | school, if any, to sign a "copyright disclaimer" for the program, if<br>
|
---|
376 | necessary. Here is a sample; alter the names:<br>

384 | This General Public License does not permit incorporating your program into<br>
|
---|
385 | proprietary programs. If your program is a subroutine library, you may<br>
|
---|
386 | consider it more useful to permit linking proprietary applications with the<br>
|
---|
387 | library. If this is what you want to do, use the GNU Lesser General<br>
