 *                CeCILL FREE SOFTWARE LICENSE AGREEMENT
 *
 *
 *     Notice
 *
 * This Agreement is a Free Software license agreement that is the result
 * of discussions between its authors in order to ensure compliance with
 * the two main principles guiding its drafting:
 *
 *     * firstly, compliance with the principles governing the distribution
 *       of Free Software: access to source code, broad rights granted to
 *       users,
 *     * secondly, the election of a governing law, French law, with which
 *       it is conformant, both as regards the law of torts and
 *       intellectual property law, and the protection that it offers to
 *       both authors and holders of the economic rights over software.
 *
 * The authors of the CeCILL (for Ce[a] C[nrs] I[nria] L[logiciel] L[ibre])
 * license are:
 *
 * Commissariat à l'Energie Atomique - CEA, a public scientific, technical
 * and industrial establishment, having its principal place of business at
 * 31-33 rue de la Fédération, 75752 Paris cedex 15, France.
 *
 * Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique - CNRS, a public scientific
 * and technological establishment, having its principal place of business
 * at 3 rue Michel-Ange 75794 Paris cedex 16, France.
 *
 * Institut National de Recherche en Informatique et en Automatique -
 * INRIA, a public scientific and technological establishment, having its

 *
 *
 *     Preamble
 *
 * The purpose of this Free Software license agreement is to grant users
 * the right to modify and redistribute the software governed by this
 * license within the framework of an open source distribution model.
 *
 * The exercising of these rights is conditional upon certain obligations
 * for users so as to preserve this status for all subsequent redistributions.
 *
 * In consideration of access to the source code and the rights to copy,
 * modify and redistribute granted by the license, users are provided only
 * with a limited warranty and the software's author, the holder of the
 * economic rights, and the successive licensors only have limited liability.
 *
 * In this respect, the risks associated with loading, using, modifying
 * and/or developing or reproducing the software by the user are brought to
 * the user's attention, given its Free Software status, which may make it
 * complicated to use, with the result that its use is reserved for
 * developers and experienced professionals having in-depth computer
 * knowledge. Users are therefore encouraged to load and test the
 * Software's suitability as regards their requirements in conditions
 * enabling the security of their systems and/or data to be ensured and,
 * more generally, to use and operate it in the same conditions of
 * security. This Agreement may be freely reproduced and published,
 * provided it is not altered, and that no provisions are either added or
 * removed herefrom.
 *
 * This Agreement may apply to any or all software for which the holder of
 * the economic rights decides to submit the use thereof to its provisions.

 * possible uses to be tested and verified, nor for the presence of
 * possible defects to be detected. In this respect, the Licensee's
 * attention has been drawn to the risks associated with loading, using,
 * modifying and/or developing and reproducing the Software which are
 * reserved for experienced users.
 *
 * The Licensee shall be responsible for verifying, by any or all means,
 * the product's suitability for its requirements, its good working order,
 * and for ensuring that it shall not cause damage to either persons or
 * properties.
 *
 * 9.2 The Licensor hereby represents, in good faith, that it is entitled
 * to grant all the rights over the Software (including in particular the

 * the Licensor without any other express or tacit warranty, other than
 * that provided for in Article 9.2 and, in particular, without any warranty

 * nature.
 *
 * Specifically, the Licensor does not warrant that the Software is free
 * from any error, that it will operate without interruption, that it will
 * be compatible with the Licensee's own equipment and software
 * configuration, nor that it will meet the Licensee's requirements.
 *
 * 9.4 The Licensor does not either expressly or tacitly warrant that the
 * Software does not infringe any third party intellectual property right
 * relating to a patent, software or any other property right. Therefore,
 * the Licensor disclaims any and all liability towards the Licensee
 * arising out of any or all proceedings for infringement that may be
 * instituted in respect of the use, modification and redistribution of the
 * Software. Nevertheless, should such proceedings be instituted against
 * the Licensee, the Licensor shall provide it with technical and legal
 * assistance for its defense. Such technical and legal assistance shall be
 * decided on a case-by-case basis between the relevant Licensor and the
 * Licensee pursuant to a memorandum of understanding. The Licensor
 * disclaims any and all liability as regards the Licensee's use of the
 * name of the Software. No warranty is given as regards the existence of
 * prior rights over the name of the Software or as regards the existence
 * of a trademark.

 * hereunder, the Licensor may automatically terminate this Agreement
 * thirty (30) days after notice has been sent to the Licensee and has

 *
 * 11.3 The Agreement cancels and replaces any or all previous agreements,
 * whether written or oral, between the Parties and having the same
 * purpose, and constitutes the entirety of the agreement between said
