As used herein, “this License” refers to version 3 of the

|
<acronym>GNU</acronym> Lesser General Public License, and the
|
||
|
“<acronym>GNU</acronym> <acronym>GPL</acronym>” refers to

“The Library” refers to a covered work governed by this License,

|
other than an Application or a Combined Work as defined below.
|

</para>

<para>
|
||
|
An “Application” is any work that makes use of an interface
|
||
|
provided by the Library, but which is not otherwise based on the Library.
|
||
|
Defining a subclass of a class defined by the Library is deemed a mode of
|
||
|
using an interface provided by the Library.

A “Combined Work” is a work produced by combining or linking an
|
||
|
Application with the Library. The particular version of the Library with
|
||
|
which the Combined Work was made is also called the “Linked
|
||
|
Version”.

The “Minimal Corresponding Source” for a Combined Work means the
|
||
|
Corresponding Source for the Combined Work, excluding any source code for
|
||
|
portions of the Combined Work that, considered in isolation, are based on
|
||
|
the Application, and not on the Linked Version.
|

</para>
|

|
<para>
|

The “Corresponding Application Code” for a Combined Work means
|
||
|
the object code and/or source code for the Application, including any data
|
||
|
and utility programs needed for reproducing the Combined Work from the
|
||
|
Application, but excluding the System Libraries of the Combined Work.

published by the Free Software Foundation. If the Library as you received it
