The creation or distribution of +works based on the Program (as defined under the GPL) of the Viewer +Software may require the use of certain Free/Libre and Open Source +Software ("FLOSS") works that are subject to license agreements not +compatible with re-licensing under the GPL. Because we want to allow +the Viewer Software to be distributed with these FLOSS works, this +FLOSS Exception following exception applies subject to the terms and +conditions below. + +Legal Terms and Conditions + +As a special exception to the terms and conditions of version 2.0 of +the GPL: + +You are free to distribute a work based on the Program that is formed +entirely from the Viewer Software (and any modifications thereof) and +one or more works that are independent and separate works not derived +from the Viewer Software, and are licensed under one or more of the +licenses listed below in section 1 (each, a "FLOSS Work") , as long +as: + + A.

If you create or +distribute a work which is a work based on the Program for the Viewer +Software and any other work licensed under the GPL, then this FLOSS +Exception is not available for that work; thus, you must remove the +FLOSS Exception notice from that work and comply with the GPL in all +respects, including by retaining all GPL notices. You may choose to +redistribute a copy of the Viewer Software exclusively under the terms +of the GPL by removing the FLOSS Exception notice from that copy of +the Viewer Software, provided that the copy has never been modified by +you or any third party. -- cgit v1.1
