 Copying
 *******
 
    GTK is "free"; this means that everyone is free to use it and free
 to redistribute it on a free basis. GTK is not in the public domain; it
 is copyrighted and there are restrictions on its distribution, but
 these restrictions are designed to permit everything that a good
 cooperating citizen would want to do. What is not allowed is to try to
 prevent others from further sharing any version of GTK that they might
 get from you.
 
    Specifically, we want to make sure that you have the right to give
 away copies of GTK, that you receive source code or else can get it if
 you want it, that you can change GTK 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 GTK, 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 GTK. If GTK is modified by
 someone else and passed on, we want their recipients to know that what
 they have is not what we distributed, so that any problems introduced
 by others will no reflect on our reputation.
 
    The precise conditions of the licenses for GTK are found in the
 General Public Licenses that accompany it.
