By contrast, our general public license is intended to +give everyone the right to share GNU Make. To make sure that you get the +rights we want you to have, we need to make restrictions that forbid anyone +to deny you these rights or to ask you to surrender the rights. Hence this +license agreement. + +Specifically, we want to make sure that you have the right to give away +copies of GNU Make, that you receive source code or else can get it if you +want it, that you can change GNU Make or use pieces of it in new free +programs, and that you know you can do these things. + +To make sure that everyone has such rights, we have to forbid you to +deprive anyone else of these rights. For example, if you distribute copies +of GNU Make, you must give the recipients all the rights that you have. +You must make sure that they, too, receive or can get the source code. And +you must tell them their rights. + +Also, for our own protection, we must make certain that everyone finds out +that there is no warranty for GNU Make. If GNU Make is modified by someone +else and passed on, we want its recipients to know that what they have is +not what we distributed, so that any problems introduced by others will not +reflect on our reputation. + +Therefore we (Richard Stallman and the Free Software Foundation, +Inc.) make the following terms which say what you must do to be +allowed to distribute or change GNU Make. + +@unnumberedsec Copying Policies + +@enumerate +@item +You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of GNU Make source code as +you receive it, in any medium, provided that you conspicuously and +appropriately publish on each copy a valid copyright notice +``Copyright @copyright{} 1988 Free Software Foundation, Inc.'' (or +with whatever year is appropriate), and include following the +copyright notice a verbatim copy of the above disclaimer of warranty +and of this License. You may charge a distribution fee for the +physical act of transferring a copy. + +@item +You may modify your copy or copies of GNU Make or any portion of it, +and copy and distribute such modifications under the terms of +Paragraph 1 above, provided that you also do the following: + +@itemize @bullet +@item +cause the modified files to carry prominent notices stating +that you changed the files and the date of any change; and + +@item +cause the whole of any work that you distribute or publish, that +in whole or in part contains or is a derivative of Bison or any +part thereof, to be licensed at no charge to all third parties on +terms identical to those contained in this License Agreement +(except that you may choose to grant more extensive warranty +protection to some or all third parties, at your option). + +@item +You may charge a distribution fee for the physical act of +transferring a copy, and you may at your option offer warranty +protection in exchange for a fee. +@end itemize + +Mere aggregation of another unrelated program with this program (or its +derivative) on a volume of a storage or distribution medium does not bring +the other program under the scope of these terms. + +@item +You may copy and distribute GNU Make (or a portion or derivative of it, +under Paragraph 2) in object code or executable form under the terms +of Paragraphs 1 and 2 above provided that you also do one of the +following: + +@itemize @bullet +@item +accompany it with the complete corresponding machine-readable +source code, which must be distributed under the terms of +Paragraphs 1 and 2 above; or, + +@item +accompany it with a written offer, valid for at least three +years, to give any third party free (except for a nominal +shipping charge) a complete machine-readable copy of the +corresponding source code, to be distributed under the terms of +Paragraphs 1 and 2 above; or, + +@item +accompany it with the information you received as to where the +corresponding source code may be obtained. (This alternative is +allowed only for noncommercial distribution and only if you +received the program in object code or executable form alone.) +@end itemize + +For an executable file, complete source code means all the source code +for all modules it contains; but, as a special exception, it need not +include source code for modules which are standard libraries that +accompany the operating system on which the executable file runs. + +@item +You may not copy, sublicense, distribute or transfer GNU Make except as +expressly provided under this License Agreement. Any attempt +otherwise to copy, sublicense, distribute or transfer GNU Make is void +and your rights to use the program under this License agreement shall +be automatically terminated. However, parties who have received +computer software programs from you with this License Agreement will +not have their licenses terminated so long as such parties remain in +full compliance. + +@item +If you wish to incorporate parts of GNU Make into other free programs +whose distribution conditions are different, write to the Free Software +Foundation at 675 Mass Ave, Cambridge, MA 02139. We have not yet worked +out a simple rule that can be stated here, but we will often permit this. +We will be guided by the two goals of preserving the free status of all +derivatives of our free software and of promoting the sharing and reuse of +software. +@end enumerate + +Your comments and suggestions about our licensing policies and our +software are welcome!
