It achieves this guarantee by imposing obligations on anyone +who chooses to distribute the software. + +Some of these obligations may be seen as unnecessarily burdensome. In +particular, when the source code for the software is already publicly +and freely available, there is minimal value in imposing upon each +distributor the obligation to provide the complete source code (or an +equivalent written offer to provide the complete source code). + +This Licence allows for the distribution of unmodified binaries built +from publicly available source code, without imposing the obligations +of the GNU General Public License upon anyone who chooses to +distribute only the unmodified binaries built from that source code. + +The extra permissions granted by this Licence apply only to unmodified +binaries built from source code which has already been made available +to the public in accordance with the terms of the GNU General Public +Licence. Nothing in this Licence allows for the creation of +closed-source modified versions of the Program. Any modified versions +of the Program are subject to the usual terms and conditions of the +GNU General Public License. + + +TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION + +This Licence applies to any Program or other work which contains a +notice placed by the copyright holder saying it may be distributed +under the terms of this Unmodified Binary Distribution Licence. All +terms used in the text of this Licence are to be interpreted as they +are used in version 2 of the GNU General Public License as published +by the Free Software Foundation. + +If you have made this Program available to the public in both source +code and executable form in accordance with the terms of the GNU +General Public License as published by the Free Software Foundation; +either version 2 of the License, or (at your option) any later +version, then you are hereby granted an additional permission to use, +copy, and distribute the unmodified executable form of this Program +(the "Unmodified Binary") without restriction, including the right to +permit persons to whom the Unmodified Binary is furnished to do +likewise, subject to the following conditions: + +- when started running, the Program must display an announcement which + includes the details of your existing publication of the Program + made in accordance with the terms of the GNU General Public License. + For example, the Program could display the URL of the publicly + available source code from which the Unmodified Binary was built. + +- when exercising your right to grant permissions under this Licence, + you do not need to refer directly to the text of this Licence, but + you may not grant permissions beyond those granted to you by this + Licence. |
