A program is free software if users have all of these freedoms. Thus, |

you should be free to redistribute copies, either with or without |

modifications, either gratis or charging a fee for distribution, to |
| 79 |

<a href="#exportcontrol">anyone anywhere</a>. Being free to do these |

things means (among other things) that you do not have to ask or pay |

privately in your own work or play, without even mentioning that they |

The freedom to run the program means the freedom for any kind of person |

overall job and purpose, without being required to communicate about it |

with the developer or any other specific entity. In this freedom, it is |
| 96 |

the <em>user's</em> purpose that matters, not the <em>developer's</em> |
| 97 |
|

purpose; you as a user are free to run a program for your purposes, |

and if you distribute it to someone else, she is then free to run it |

for conveniently installable free operating systems.) It is ok if there |

|
is no way to produce a binary or executable form for a certain program |
| 108 |
|

(since some languages don't support that feature), but you must have the |

freedom to redistribute such forms should you find or develop a way to |

In order for the freedoms to make changes, and to publish improved |
| 115 |
|
|
versions, to be meaningful, you must have access to the source code of |
| 116 |

|
the program. Therefore, accessibility of source code is a necessary |

1.48 |
condition for free software. |

One important way to modify a program is by merging in available |
| 122 |
|
|
free subroutines and modules. If the program's license says that you |
| 123 |
|
|
cannot merge in an existing module, such as if it requires you to be the |
| 124 |
|
|
copyright holder of any code you add, then the license is too restrictive |
| 125 |
|
|
to qualify as free. |

In order for these freedoms to be real, they must be irrevocable as |
| 130 |
|
|
long as you do nothing wrong; if the developer of the software has the |
| 131 |
sinuhe |
1.48 |
power to revoke the license, without your doing anything to give cause, |
| 132 |
|
|
the software is not free. |

However, certain kinds of rules about the manner of distributing free |
| 137 |
|
|
software are acceptable, when they don't conflict with the central |
| 138 |
|
|
freedoms. For example, copyleft (very simply stated) is the rule that |
| 139 |
|
|
when redistributing the program, you cannot add restrictions to deny |
| 140 |
|
|
other people the central freedoms. This rule does not conflict with |
| 141 |

1.48 |
the central freedoms; rather it protects them. |

You may have paid money to get copies of free software, or you may have |
| 146 |
|

obtained copies at no charge. But regardless of how you got your copies, |

you always have the freedom to copy and change the software, even to |

Rules about how to package a modified version are acceptable, if they |

sinuhe |
1.48 |
don't substantively block your freedom to release modified versions, or |
| 161 |
|
|
your freedom to make and use modified versions privately. Rules that <q>if |

you make your version available in this way, you must make it available in |

that way also</q> can be acceptable too, on the same condition. (Note that |
| 164 |
|
|
such a rule still leaves you the choice of whether to publish your version |
| 165 |
|
|
at all.) Rules that require release of source code to the users for |
| 166 |
|
|
versions that you put into public use are also acceptable. It is also |
| 167 |
|
|
acceptable for the license to require that, if you have distributed a |

modified version and a previous developer asks for a copy of it, you |

|
|
must send one, or that you identify yourself on your modifications. |

Sometimes government <a id="exportcontrol">export control regulations</a> |

is refuse to impose them as conditions of use of the program. In this |

Most free software licenses are based on copyright, and there are limits |

|
|
on what kinds of requirements can be imposed through copyright. If a |
| 202 |
|
|
copyright-based license respects freedom in the ways described above, it |
| 203 |
|
|
is unlikely to have some other sort of problem that we never anticipated |
| 204 |
|
|
(though this does happen occasionally). However, some free software |
| 205 |
|
|
licenses are based on contracts, and contracts can impose a much larger |
| 206 |
|
|
range of possible restrictions. That means there are many possible ways |
| 207 |
|
|
such a license could be unacceptably restrictive and non-free. |

When talking about free software, it is best to avoid using terms |
| 220 |
|
|
like <q>give away</q> or <q>for free,</q> because those terms imply that |
| 221 |
|
|
the issue is about price, not freedom. Some common terms such |

as <q>piracy</q> embody opinions we hope you won't endorse. See |

Finally, note that criteria such as those stated in this free software |
| 231 |
sinuhe |
1.48 |
definition require careful thought for their interpretation. To decide |
| 232 |
|
|
whether a specific software license qualifies as a free software license, |
| 233 |
|
|
we judge it based on these criteria to determine whether it fits their |
| 234 |
|
|
spirit as well as the precise words. If a license includes unconscionable |
| 235 |
|
|
restrictions, we reject it, even if we did not anticipate the issue |
| 236 |
|
|
in these criteria. Sometimes a license requirement raises an issue |
| 237 |
|
|
that calls for extensive thought, including discussions with a lawyer, |
| 238 |
|
|
before we can decide if the requirement is acceptable. When we reach |
| 239 |
|
|
a conclusion about a new issue, we often update these criteria to make |
| 240 |
|
|
it easier to see why certain licenses do or don't qualify. |
