damage your back, result in other injury, or cause damage to the

instrument itself.

• Before moving the instrument, remove all connected cables, to

prevent damage to the cables or injury to anyone who might trip

over them.

• When setting up the product, make sure that the AC outlet you are

using is easily accessible. If some trouble or malfunction occurs,

immediately turn off the power switch and disconnect the plug from

the outlet. Even when the power switch is turned off, electricity is

still flowing to the product at the minimum level. When you are not

ATTENTION

Observez toujours les précautions élémentaires reprises ci-dessous pour éviter tout risque de blessures corporelles,

pour vous-même ou votre entourage, ainsi que la détérioration de l'instrument ou de tout autre bien. La liste de ces

précautions n'est pas exhaustive :

• N'utilisez pas de connecteur multiple pour brancher l'instrument sur

une prise secteur. Cela risque d'affecter la qualité du son, voire de

provoquer la surchauffe de la prise.

• Veillez à toujours saisir la fiche, et non le cordon, pour débrancher

l'instrument de la prise d'alimentation. Si vous tirez sur le cordon,

vous risquez de l'endommager.

• Débranchez la fiche électrique de la prise secteur lorsque vous

n'utilisez pas l'instrument pendant un certain temps ou en cas

d'orage.

• Ne placez pas l'instrument dans une position instable afin d'éviter

qu'il ne tombe accidentellement.

• En cas de transport ou de déplacement de l'instrument, faites

toujours appel à deux personnes au moins. En essayant de soulever

l'instrument tout seul, vous risqueriez de vous faire mal au dos ou

de vous blesser ou encore d'endommager l'instrument lui-même.

• Avant de déplacer l'instrument, débranchez-en tous les câbles afin

d'éviter de les endommager ou de blesser quiconque risquerait de

trébucher dessus.

• Lors de la configuration de l'instrument, assurez-vous que la prise

secteur que vous utilisez est facilement accessible. En cas de

problème ou de dysfonctionnement, coupez immédiatement

l'alimentation et retirez la fiche de la prise. Même lorsque

l'interrupteur d'alimentation est en position d'arrêt, du courant

électrique de faible intensité continue de circuler dans l'instrument.

Si vous n'utilisez pas l'instrument pendant une période prolongée,

veillez à débrancher le cordon d'alimentation de la prise murale.

• Avant de raccorder l'instrument à d'autres appareils électroniques,

mettez ces derniers hors tension. Avant de mettre ces appareils sous

ou hors tension, réglez tous les niveaux de volume sur le son

minimal.

• Veillez également à régler tous les appareils sur le volume minimal

et à augmenter progressivement les commandes de volume tout en

jouant de l'instrument pour obtenir le niveau sonore souhaité.

• N'insérez pas et ne laissez pas tomber d'objets en papier, en métal

ou autres dans les fentes du panneau ou du clavier. Vous pourriez

vous blesser ou provoquer des blessures à votre entourage,

endommager l'instrument ou un autre bien ou causer des

dysfonctionnements au niveau de l'instrument.

• Ne vous appuyez pas sur l'instrument et ne déposez pas d'objets

lourds dessus. Ne manipulez pas trop brutalement les touches, les

sélecteurs et les connecteurs.

• N'utilisez pas l'instrument ou le casque de manière prolongée

à des niveaux sonores trop élevés ou inconfortables qui risqueraient

d'entraîner des troubles définitifs de l'audition. Si vous constatez

une baisse d'acuité auditive ou que vous entendez des sifflements,

consultez un médecin.

Mettez toujours l'instrument hors tension lorsque vous ne l'utilisez pas.

Même lorsque l'interrupteur [STANDBY/ON] (Veille/Marche) est en position de veille et que le rétroéclairage de l'écran est éteint, une faible quantité

d'électricité circule toujours dans l'instrument.

Lorsque vous n'utilisez pas l'instrument pendant une période prolongée, veillez à débrancher le cordon d'alimentation de la prise murale.

A message from the MONTAGE Development Team

Thank you for purchasing the Yamaha MONTAGE6/7/8 Music Synthesizer. Since the first MOTIF was

launched in 2001, the MOTIF series has reached fourth-generation status and has finally been remodeled—

for the first time in 15 years—as the new MONTAGE.

The MONTAGE has an immense set of impressively high-quality sounds, exceptional playability, and a

sophisticated, stylish design—making this long-awaited instrument destined to be long-loved as well.

High-quality sounds that take you to new creative

and expressive heights

We took the bread-and-butter sounds of the MOTIF series used extensively by artists

worldwide, and significantly enhanced them.

In answer to many and repeated requests from power users, we have created this new model

with FM (frequency modulation) oscillators and many new effects. Moreover, the MONTAGE has

a powerfully dynamic Motion Control System that lets you variably control sounds in real time,

giving you the best of both worlds—tradition and innovation—in sonic expressiveness.

We improved the analog circuitry in the audio output, ensuring superior quality sound

reproduction over a wide frequency range, and especially accurate reproduction over the mid

and high frequency ranges with exceptional clarity.

The MONTAGE is equipped with a wide range of dynamic sounds for use in virtually any music

application.

Controllers and user interface designed for

high playability

The MONTAGE has new controllers which are useful not only as a live-performance keyboard,

but also as a high-performance synthesizer. The MONTAGE’s playability is maximized in live

performance situations through the Live Set function, Scene function, and SSS (Seamless

Sound Switching.)

Moreover, the MONTAGE has a completely new performance controller—the Super Knob—

which lets you easily and expressively create multi-textured, multi-dimensional sound and

music. The sound changes are synchronized with lighting changes on the Super Knob itself as

well as eight other small knobs. It’s almost like having a conversation with the MONTAGE, and

spurring each other on to new creative heights!

The MONTAGE is comprehensively designed for intuitive, simple operation, yet with meticulous

detail, and is ideal for professional musicians.

Here finally, is a musical instrument with stunning sounds, broad capabilities and deep

expressiveness that is truly addictive, and will be your new go-to instrument!

We really hope that the MONTAGE6/7/8 will help your creativity and musical

work grow by leaps and bounds.

Enjoy!

Sincerely,

The Yamaha MONTAGE Development Team

MONTAGE Owner’s Manual

Main Features

 High-quality, enhanced sounds covering a

wide range of music styles

The MONTAGE is loaded with 5 GB (in 16-bit linear

format) of preset Advanced Wave memory (AWM2) —

more than seven times the size of the previous MOTIF

XF6/7/8. The MONTAGE has a huge variety of sounds,

including highly realistic Piano sounds, with large-

volume waveform data. Unlike its predecessors, the

MONTAGE features 1.7 GB of User flash memory built in,

for storing various Performance libraries. The

Performance data is maintained in the same way as

preset Performances even if the power is turned off. The

MONTAGE also now features an FM-X tone generator,

providing powerfully complex FM synthesis. This puts

both standard FM and new-generation FM sounds in

your sonic palette, giving you a wide range of

expressive, richly textured sounds to work with, and lets

you combine both the FM-X and AWM2 tone generators.

 Extensive effect processing

The MONTAGE has a huge variety of professional and

modern-music effects, including Beat Repeat, Vinyl

Break, Bit Crusher, and Analog Delay. The instrument

also gives you a wide array of signal processing options,

including separate Variation and Reverb, an overall

Master Effect including multi-band compression, five-

band master EQ, independent Insertion Effects, plus

three-band EQ before the Insertion Effects and two-band

EQ after them. These Insertion Effects contain wide

variety of sound processing options, including a special

Vocoder effect.

 Motion Control System for new musical

possibilities

The Motion Control System is a completely new feature

for variably controlling Motions (rhythmical, multi-

dimensional sound changes) in real time. This amazingly

powerful feature dramatically and dynamically alters the

sounds of the instrument in new, never-heard-before

ways—changing texturally, rhythmically with the beats,

providing cool, colorful lighting effects, and responding

expressively to your creative passion.

The Motion Control System has three main functions:

1) Super Knob:

For creating multi-dimensional sonic changes, and

enhancing those changes with colorful, continually

shifting lighting changes.

2) Motion Sequencer:

For continually variable sound changes.

3) Envelope Follower:

Synchronizes the Motions with tempo and volume of

audio input and other Parts.

 Expanded, enhanced Arpeggio function and

Motion Sequence

The MONTAGE has more than 10,000 Arpeggio types

that cover the latest music styles. Further enhancing the

musical expressiveness of the instrument, you can

combine the Motion Sequence function for creating

dynamic sound variability over time with various

Arpeggio types. You can store all contents—Arpeggio

Type, Motion Sequence, and other parameters such as

Part volume—together as Scenes, and assign them to

eight buttons, letting you conveniently and powerfully

call up those Scenes as desired while you perform.

 Exceptionally convenient live performance

functions

The MONTAGE has a Live Set function for easily calling

up Performances as you play onstage. Once you’ve

stored Performances in the desired order, you can

concentrate fully on your playing and never be at a loss

on which to choose. The MONTAGE also has SSS

(Seamless Sound Switching) function for switching

between Performances smoothly without any notes

being cut off.

 Enhanced user interface

Unlike its predecessors, the MONTAGE has been

designed without any “Modes.” As a result, it is extremely

easy to understand the structure and flow of the

instrument, and the convenient touch panel is a total joy

to use. You can creatively and effectively use the touch

panel for intuitive operations and the switches for more

secure control, if desired. These switches light in three

different ways, letting you instantly understand the

current status of the switches.

 Responsive, expressive keyboard

The MONTAGE6 features a 61-key keyboard, while the

MONTAGE7 has 76 keys with a high-quality FSX

keyboard and the MONTAGE8 has 88 keys with a high-

quality BH (Balanced Hammer) keyboard. All are

equipped with a touch response feature (both initial

touch and aftertouch). These allow you to expressively

change the sound in various ways—initial touch by the

strength with which you play the keys, and aftertouch by

how strongly you press the keys when holding them

down.

 Comprehensive system connectivity

The MONTAGE features a built-in 6-channel in/32-

channel out USB audio interface for recording the high-

quality sound of the MONTAGE on a Mac or Windows

PC—without the need for a separate device! The

MONTAGE also supports high-resolution 192 kHz audio,

making the ideal keyboard to take into professional-level

recording situations as well. The connections are also

compatible with iOS devices.

MONTAGE Owner’s Manual

The MONTAGE has 16 Parts and basic musical instrument

sounds are assigned to each Part. A single set of these

sounds is called a “Performance.” You can change sounds

as desired by selecting the appropriate Performance.

There are three Part types as follows.

Normal Parts (AWM2)

Normal Parts (AWM2) are mainly pitched musical instrument

type sounds (piano, organ, guitar, synthesizer, etc.) that can

be played over the full range of the keyboard.

Normal Parts (FM-X)

Normal Parts (FM-X) are powerful FM Synthesis system

sounds. This sound is played conventionally from the

keyboard, with standard pitches sounding for each key.

Drum Parts

Drum Parts are mainly percussion/drum sounds that are

assigned to individual notes.

Performances can also be divided into two groups as

follows.

Single Part Performances

A Single Part Performance contains only one Part. Select this

if you want to play a single instrument.

Multi Part Performances

A Multi Part Performance contains multiple Parts. Select this

if you want to play sounds of multiple instruments by using

layering and splitting functions.

This instrument features Banks for memorizing

Performances. There are basically four different types of

Banks: Preset, User, Library, and GM. The contained

Performances and features depend on the Bank as

described below.

Preset Banks

The Preset Banks contain a full set of specially programmed

Performances. Performances you’ve edited yourself cannot

be saved in the Preset Banks.

User Banks

The User Banks contain the Performances you have edited

and stored. The User Banks are initially empty.

NOTICE

If a Performance in a User Bank (User Performance) is

overwritten or replaced, that User Performance will be lost. When

you store an edited Performance, be careful not to overwrite any

important User Performances.

Library Banks

The Library Banks contain the Performances you have

added as Libraries. The Library Banks are initially empty.

(A Library can be added by importing a library file.)

GM Bank

The GM Bank contains the Parts allocated according to the

GM standard.

Each of these Banks include Performances organized

according to the Performance type.

NOTE

• For details about Performances, refer to “Basic Structure” in the

Reference Manual PDF document.

• For lists of the Performances, refer to the separate Data List PDF.

GM (General MIDI) is a worldwide standard for Voice

organization and MIDI functions of synthesizers and tone

generators. It was designed primarily to ensure that any

song data created with a specific GM device would sound

virtually the same on any other GM device—no matter the

manufacturer or the model. The GM bank on this

synthesizer is designed to appropriately play back GM

song data. However, keep in mind that the sound may not

be exactly the same as played by the original tone

generator.

An Element is created by applying various parameters

(Effect, EG, etc.) to the waveform of the instrument sound.

A Normal Part of this instrument (AWM2) consists of up to

eight Elements.

The abbreviation “FM” of FM-X stands for “frequency

modulation,” which is special tone generation system that

uses one waveform’s frequency to modulate another

waveform, to produce a completely new one. Waveforms

are generated by “operators,” of which the MONTAGE has

eight. An operator that generates a fundamental waveform

is a “carrier,” and an operator that modulates these

waveforms is a “modulator.” Each of the eight operators

can be used as either a carrier or a modulator. By

changing the way operators are combined and controlling

the modulation with other parameters such as levels and

envelopes, you can create richly textured sounds that

change in a highly complex fashion.

How Parts are assigned to a

Performance

By default (when shipped from the factory), various types of

Performances are provided in the Preset Banks. For some of

these Performances, it may not be immediately obvious how

to play them or use them, since they are quite complicated.

In this section, you’ll learn the typical ways in which

Performances are created, and thus better understand how

to play and use them. This section covers the typical four

Part assignments.

This method lets you play multiple (two or more) Parts

simultaneously by pressing any notes.

For example, you can create a thicker sound by combining

two similar Parts—for example, two different Strings Parts,

each with a different attack speed.

This method lets you play different Parts with your left hand

and right hand. By assigning a Strings Part to the lower

range and assigning a Flute to the higher range separately

as illustrated below, you can play Strings accompaniment

with your left hand and while playing Flute melody with your

right hand.

This method lets you trigger different Parts depending on

your playing strength (velocity). In this example below,

playing notes at low velocities triggers Strings sounds with a

slow attack speed. Playing notes at middle velocities

triggers Strings sounds with a fast attack speed. Playing

notes at high velocities triggers Orchestra Hits.

Compare function

The Compare function lets you switch between the just-

edited sound and its original, unedited condition, allowing

you to hear how your edits affect the sound.

Press the [EDIT] button while the Edit display is shown, so

that the [EDIT] button flashes. In this status, the sound

settings prior to editing will temporarily be reinstated for

comparison purposes. Press the [EDIT] button again to

return to the original status.

With this method, you can play all the parts of a band by

yourself. This type of Performance also uses different

Arpeggio types assigned to the individual Parts, making it

even easier to sound like a full band. In the example below,

the Drum pattern (by Arpeggio) will be played back

indefinitely even when you release the notes, the Bass line

(by Arpeggio) will be played back by your left hand

performance, and the Guitar backing (by Arpeggio) or Piano

Arpeggio will be played back by your right hand

performance. In addition, you can change the Arpeggio

Type assignment for each Part by pressing any of the

Number C [1] – [8] buttons.

Using or combining the four methods described above gives

you the ability to create a rich variety of Performances. By

default, many Performances stored in the Preset Banks have

been created via the above methods. Try out various

Performances and see which method is used for each.

Creating a Performance by

combining Parts

After checking out the pre-programmed Performances in the

Preset Banks, try creating your own original Performance. In

this section, we’ll create a Performance by combining two

You can record MIDI data as Songs on this instrument itself or record your performance (audio data) on a USB flash memory

device plugged into the MONTAGE.

Terminology

Song

A Song on this instrument is effectively the same as a song

on a MIDI sequencer, and playback automatically stops at

the end of the recorded data. The MONTAGE can store up to

64 Songs.

Track

This is a memory location on the sequencer where your

musical performances (made up of MIDI events) are stored.

The MONTAGE provides 16 tracks, which correspond to the

16 Mixing Parts.

Realtime Recording

The instrument records the performance data as it is played

along with a metronome. Realtime Recording features three

available methods: Replace, Overdub and Punch In/Out.

• Replace lets you overwrite an already recorded Track with

new data, erasing the previously recorded data.

• Overdub lets you add more data to a Track that already

contains data—in other words, recording new notes on top

of the previous ones.

• Punch In/Out lets you re-record selectively over a specific

area of the Track.

MIDI Recording

This instrument features a Performance Recorder (built-in

multi Track sequencer) for recording your keyboard

performance as MIDI data. This function allows you to

instantly store your phrase which comes to your mind. You

can create full, complex multi-instrument arrangements and

complete Songs, using DAW.

Recording to a track

In this section, you’ll learn how to record your keyboard

performance, by recording a part to Track 1. However, you’ll

first need to set up the MONTAGE for recording.

- Quit any open application software on the computer.

- Make sure that data is not being transmitted from the

instrument. (Data is transmitted only by playing notes

on the keyboard or playing back a song.)

• While the computer is connected to the instrument, you

should wait for six seconds or more between these oper-

ations: (1) when turning the power of the instrument off

then on again, or (2) when alternately connecting/dis-

connecting the USB cable.

MIDI channels and MIDI ports

MIDI data is assigned to one of sixteen channels, and this

synthesizer is capable of simultaneously playing sixteen

separate Parts, via the sixteen MIDI channels. However,

the sixteen-channel limit can be overcome by using

separate MIDI “ports,” each supporting sixteen channels.

While a single MIDI cable is equipped to handle data over

up to sixteen channels simultaneously, a USB connection

is capable of handling far more—thanks to the use of MIDI

ports. Each MIDI port can handle sixteen channels, and

the USB connection allows up to eight ports, letting you

use up to 128 channels (8 ports x 16 channels) on your

computer.

When connecting this instrument to a computer using a

USB cable, the MIDI ports are defined as follows:

Port 1

The tone generator block in this instrument can recognize

and use only this port. When playing the MONTAGE as a

tone generator from the external MIDI instrument or

computer, you should set the MIDI Port to 1 on the

connected MIDI device or computer.

Port 3

This port is used as the MIDI Thru Port. The MIDI data

received over Port 3 via the [USB TO HOST] terminal will

be re-transmitted to an external MIDI device via the MIDI

[OUT] terminal.

The MIDI data received over Port 3 via the MIDI [IN]

terminal will be re-transmitted to an external device

(computer, etc.) via the [USB TO HOST] terminal. When

using a USB connection, make sure to match the MIDI

transmit port and the MIDI receive port as well as the MIDI

transmit channel and the MIDI receive channel. Make sure

to set the MIDI port of the external device connected to this

instrument according to the above information.

Audio channels

The audio signals of the MONTAGE can be output to the

[USB TO HOST] terminal and the OUTPUT [L/MONO]/[R]

jacks.

When connecting to a computer, use the [USB TO HOST]

terminal. In this case, up to 32 audio channels (16 stereo

channels) are available when the sampling frequency is

44.1 kHz, and up to eight audio channels (four stereo

channels) are available when the sampling frequency is

between 44.1 kHz and 192kHz. The output-to-channel

assignments are made as follows: [EDIT]  [Part Settings]

 “Part Output” in the [General] display.

The audio signals of the MONTAGE can be input from the

[USB TO HOST] terminal and the A/D INPUT [L/MONO]/[R]

jacks.

Up to six channels (three stereo channels) of audio can be

input to the [USB TO HOST] terminal. Set the output level

in the Mixing display or the Performance edit display. The

signals are output to the OUTPUT [L/MONO]/[R] jack (two

channels.) Also, up to two audio channels (one stereo

channel) can be input to the A/D INPUT [L/MONO]/[R]

jacks. The signal is sent to the A/D input part of the

MONTAGE. For more details, see the Reference Manual

PDF document.

MONTAGE Owner’s Manual

Using a Connected Computer

Creating a Song with a computer

By using the MONTAGE with DAW software on a computer

connected to the MONTAGE, you can take advantage of the

following functions and applications.

• MIDI recording and audio recording of your MONTAGE

performance to the DAW software.

• Playing back a song from the DAW software by using the

MONTAGE tone generator.

This section contains an overview on how to use DAW

software on the computer with the MONTAGE after

connecting (page 49).

Recording your performance on the

MONTAGE to computer as MIDI data (no

example below, the MIDI data transmitted from the

MONTAGE then recorded to the computer via MIDI

channel 1 will be returned back from the computer to the

MONTAGE via MIDI channel 3 according to the setting of

the recording Track. As a result, the tone generator of the

MONTAGE will sound the MIDI data generated by

playing the keyboard as MIDI data from channel 3.

2 Record your MONTAGE performance on the

DAW software.

Troubleshooting



When the Part produces a wrong pitch, is the appropriate tuning system selected from the Micro Tuning parameter?

• In case of Normal Part (AWM2) and Drum Part

• In case of Normal Part (FM-X)

 When the Part produces a wrong pitch, is the LFO Pitch Modulation Depth set too high?

• In case of Normal Part (AWM2)

• In case of Normal Part (FM-X)

 When a Part produces a wrong pitch, are Coarse tune and Fine tune settings appropriate?

• In case of Normal Part (AWM2) and Drum Part

• In case of Normal Part (FM-X)

 When the Part seems to produce the wrong pitch, is the destination of the controller set to “Pitch”?

No effect is applied.

 Is the Effect Switch turned off?

 Is the Variation Send or Reverb Send set to a value other than “0”?

 Is the Variation Return or Reverb Return set to a value other than “0”?

 Have any or all of the Element/Keys’ Insertion Effect Output parameters been set to “thru” in the effect setting?

 In case of System Effect, have any or all of the effect types been set to “No Effect”?

 In case of Insertion Effect, have any or all of the effect types been set to “Thru”?

 Check whether the Insertion Switch parameters are set properly or not.

Cannot start the Arpeggio.

 Check whether the [ARP ON/OFF] button is turned on or off.

 Count the number of Parts whose Arpeggio switches are turned on.

You can play back the Arpeggios of up to eight Parts simultaneously.

 Are the Arpeggio related parameters such as Note Limit and Velocity Limit set appropriately?

 Is the Arpeggio Type parameter set to “off”?

Troubleshooting



Check the Arpeggio Switch parameter.

If this parameter for the current Part is set to off, Arpeggio playback will not be triggered by your keyboard performance even

if the [ARP ON/OFF] button is turned on.

Cannot stop the Arpeggio.

 When Arpeggio playback does not stop even if you release the key, set the Arpeggio Hold parameter to “off.”

The Song cannot be started even when pressing the [R] (Play) button.

 Does the selected Song actually contain data?

Song cannot be recorded.

 Is there enough free memory for recording?

MONTAGE memory can record up to 64 Songs. If the memory becomes full, no more recording is possible.

Data communication between the computer and the MONTAGE does not work properly.

 Check whether the Port settings on the computer are appropriate or not.

 Check whether or not the MIDI IN/OUT parameter is set to the appropriate value.

MIDI bulk data transmission/reception does not work properly.

 Is the Receive Bulk parameter set to off?

Set the Receive Bulk parameter to on.

 When receiving MIDI bulk data transmitted via the Bulk Dump function and recorded to the external MIDI device, you need to

set the MIDI Device Number to the same value as when transmitting.

When transmission does not work properly, is the device number of the MIDI instrument connected to the MONTAGE set to

match the Device Number parameter?

Cannot save data to the external USB flash memory device.

 Is the USB flash memory device being used write protected? (Write-protect should be set to off for saving data.)

 Is there enough free space on the USB flash memory device?

In the Contents display, set the device to the USB flash memory device. Check the amount of currently available (unused)

memory of the USB flash memory device indicated at the right top of the display.

 Is operation of the particular USB flash memory device guaranteed by Yamaha?

For details, see page 54.

In the display, there are some black points (unlit) or white points (always lit).

 These are the result of defective pixels and occasionally occur in LCDs; they do not indicate a problem in operation.

MONTAGE Owner’s Manual

GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE

Version 2, June 1991

Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies of this license document, but changing it is not allowed.

Preamble

The licenses for most software are designed to take away your freedom to

share and change it. By contrast, the GNU General Public License is

intended to guarantee your freedom to share and change free software—

to make sure the software is free for all its users. This General Public

License applies to most of the Free Software Foundation’s software and to

any other program whose authors commit to using it. (Some other Free

Software Foundation software is covered by the GNU Lesser General

Public License instead.) You can apply it to your programs, too.

When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not price.

Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that you have the

freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge for this service if

you wish), that you receive source code or can get it if you want it, that

you can change the software or use pieces of it in new free programs; and

that you know you can do these things.

To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that forbid anyone to

deny you these rights or to ask you to surrender the rights. These

restrictions translate to certain responsibilities for you if you distribute

copies of the software, or if you modify it.

For example, if you distribute copies of such a program, whether gratis or

for a fee, 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 show them these terms so they know their rights.

We protect your rights with two steps: (1) copyright the software, and (2)

offer you this license which gives you legal permission to copy, distribute

and/or modify the software.

Also, for each author's protection and ours, we want to make certain that

everyone understands that there is no warranty for this free software. If

the software is modified by someone else and passed on, we want its

recipients to know that what they have is not the original, so that any

problems introduced by others will not reflect on the original authors'

reputations.

Finally, any free program is threatened constantly by software patents.

We wish to avoid the danger that redistributors of a free program will

individually obtain patent licenses, in effect making the program

proprietary. To prevent this, we have made it clear that any patent must

be licensed for everyone’s free use or not licensed at all.

The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and

modification follow.

GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE

TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR

COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND

MODIFICATION

0. This License applies to any program or other work which contains a

notice placed by the copyright holder saying it may be distributed

under the terms of this General Public License. The “Program”,

below, refers to any such program or work, and a “work based on the

Program” means either the Program or any derivative work under

portion of it, either verbatim or with modifications and/or translated

into another language. (Hereinafter, translation is included without

limitation in the term “modification”.) Each licensee is addressed as

“you”.

Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are not

covered by this License; they are outside its scope. The act of

running the Program is not restricted, and the output from the

Program is covered only if its contents constitute a work based on the

Program (independent of having been made by running the

Program). Whether that is true depends on what the Program does.

1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Program's source

code as you receive it, in any medium, provided that you

conspicuously and appropriately publish on each copy an

appropriate copyright notice and disclaimer of warranty; keep intact

all the notices that refer to this License and to the absence of any

warranty; and give any other recipients of the Program a copy of this

License along with the Program.

You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy, and

you may at your option offer warranty protection in exchange for a

fee.

2. You may modify your copy or copies of the Program or any portion of

it, thus forming a work based on the Program, and copy and

distribute such modifications or work under the terms of Section 1

above, provided that you also meet all of these conditions:

a) You must cause the modified files to carry prominent notices

stating that you changed the files and the date of any change.

b) You must cause any work that you distribute or publish, that in

whole or in part contains or is derived from the Program or any

part thereof, to be licensed as a whole at no charge to all third

parties under the terms of this License.

c) If the modified program normally reads commands interactively

when run, you must cause it, when started running for such

interactive use in the most ordinary way, to print or display an

announcement including an appropriate copyright notice and a

notice that there is no warranty (or else, saying that you provide a

warranty) and that users may redistribute the program under

these conditions, and telling the user how to view a copy of this

License. (Exception: if the Program itself is interactive but does

not normally print such an announcement, your work based on the

Program is not required to print an announcement.)

These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole. If

identifiable sections of that work are not derived from the Program,

and can be reasonably considered independent and separate works

in themselves, then this License, and its terms, do not apply to those

sections when you distribute them as separate works. But when you

distribute the same sections as part of a whole which is a work based

on the Program, the distribution of the whole must be on the terms of

this License, whose permissions for other licensees extend to the

entire whole, and thus to each and every part regardless of who

wrote it.

Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest your

rights to work written entirely by you; rather, the intent is to exercise

the right to control the distribution of derivative or collective works

based on the Program.

In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the

Program with the Program (or with a work based on the Program) on

a volume of a storage or distribution medium does not bring the other

work under the scope of this License.

3. You may copy and distribute the Program (or a work based on it,

under Section 2) in object code or executable form under the terms

of Sections 1 and 2 above provided that you also do one of the

following:

a) Accompany it with the complete corresponding machine-

readable source code, which must be distributed under the terms

of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium customarily used for

software interchange; or,

b) Accompany it with a written offer, valid for at least three years, to

give any third party, for a charge no more than your cost of

physically performing source distribution, a complete machine-

readable copy of the corresponding source code, to be

distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a

medium customarily used for software interchange; or,

c) Accompany it with the information you received as to the offer to

distribute corresponding source code. (This alternative is allowed

only for noncommercial distribution and only if you received the

program in object code or executable form with such an offer, in

accord with Subsection b above.)

The source code for a work means the preferred form of the work for

making modifications to it. For an executable work, complete source

code means all the source code for all modules it contains, plus any

associated interface definition files, plus the scripts used to control

compilation and installation of the executable. However, as a special

exception, the source code distributed need not include anything

that is normally distributed (in either source or binary form) with the

major components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of the operating

system on which the executable runs, unless that component itself

accompanies the executable.

If distribution of executable or object code is made by offering

access to copy from a designated place, then offering equivalent

access to copy the source code from the same place counts as

distribution of the source code, even though third parties are not

compelled to copy the source along with the object code.

MONTAGE Owner’s Manual

4. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the Program

except as expressly provided under this License. Any attempt

otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense or distribute the Program is

void, and will automatically terminate your rights under this License.

However, parties who have received copies, or rights, from you under

this License will not have their licenses terminated so long as such

parties remain in full compliance.

5. You are not required to accept this License, since you have not

signed it. However, nothing else grants you permission to modify or

distribute the Program or its derivative works. These actions are

prohibited by law if you do not accept this License. Therefore, by

modifying or distributing the Program (or any work based on the

Program), you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so, and

all its terms and conditions for copying, distributing or modifying the

Program or works based on it.

6. Each time you redistribute the Program (or any work based on the

Program), the recipient automatically receives a license from the

original licensor to copy, distribute or modify the Program subject to

these terms and conditions. You may not impose any further

restrictions on the recipients’ exercise of the rights granted herein.

You are not responsible for enforcing compliance by third parties to

this License.

7. If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent

infringement or for any other reason (not limited to patent issues),

conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or

otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not

excuse you from the conditions of this License. If you cannot

distribute so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this

License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence

you may not distribute the Program at all. For example, if a patent

license would not permit royalty-free redistribution of the Program by

all those who receive copies directly or indirectly through you, then

the only way you could satisfy both it and this License would be to

refrain entirely from distribution of the Program.

If any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable under

any particular circumstance, the balance of the section is intended to

apply and the section as a whole is intended to apply in other

circumstances.

It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe any

patents or other property right claims or to contest validity of any

such claims; this section has the sole purpose of protecting the

integrity of the free software distribution system, which is

implemented by public license practices. Many people have made

generous contributions to the wide range of software distributed

through that system in reliance on consistent application of that

system; it is up to the author/donor to decide if he or she is willing to

distribute software through any other system and a licensee cannot

impose that choice.

This section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is believed to

be a consequence of the rest of this License.

8. If the distribution and/or use of the Program is restricted in certain

countries either by patents or by copyrighted interfaces, the original

add an explicit geographical distribution limitation excluding those

countries, so that distribution is permitted only in or among countries

not thus excluded. In such case, this License incorporates the

limitation as if written in the body of this License.

9. The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new

versions of the General Public License from time to time. Such new

versions will be similar in spirit to the present version, but may differ in

detail to address new problems or concerns.

Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the Program

specifies a version number of this License which applies to it and

“any later version”, you have the option of following the terms and

conditions either of that version or of any later version published by

the Free Software Foundation. If the Program does not specify a

version number of this License, you may choose any version ever

published by the Free Software Foundation.

10. If you wish to incorporate parts of the Program into other free

programs whose distribution conditions are different, write to the

author to ask for permission. For software which is copyrighted by

the Free Software Foundation, write to the Free Software Foundation;

we sometimes make exceptions for this. Our decision will be guided

by the two goals of preserving the free status of all derivatives of our

free software and of promoting the sharing and reuse of software

generally.

NO WARRANTY

11. BECAUSE THE PROGRAM IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE, THERE

IS NO WARRANTY FOR THE PROGRAM, TO THE EXTENT

PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW. EXCEPT WHEN OTHERWISE

STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER

PARTIES PROVIDE THE PROGRAM “AS IS” WITHOUT WARRANTY

OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT

NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF

MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.

THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF

THE PROGRAM IS WITH YOU. SHOULD THE PROGRAM PROVE

DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE COST OF ALL NECESSARY

SERVICING, REPAIR OR CORRECTION.

12. IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR

AGREED TO IN WRITING WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY

OTHER PARTY WHO MAY MODIFY AND/OR REDISTRIBUTE THE

PROGRAM AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR

DAMAGES, INCLUDING ANY GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR

CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THE USE OR

INABILITY TO USE THE PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED

TO LOSS OF DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED INACCURATE OR

LOSSES SUSTAINED BY YOU OR THIRD PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF

THE PROGRAM TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER PROGRAMS),

EVEN IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF

THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS

How to Apply These Terms to Your New

Programs

If you develop a new program, and you want it to be of the greatest

possible use to the public, the best way to achieve this is to make it free

software which everyone can redistribute and change under these terms.

To do so, attach the following notices to the program. It is safest to attach

them to the start of each source file to most effectively convey the

exclusion of warranty; and each file should have at least the “copyright”

line and a pointer to where the full notice is found.

<one line to give the program’s name and a brief idea of what it

does.>

This program is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify it

under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by

the Free Software Foundation; either version 2 of the License, or (at

your option) any later version.

This General Public License does not permit incorporating your program

into proprietary programs. If your program is a subroutine library, you

may consider it more useful to permit linking proprietary applications with

the library. If this is what you want to do, use the GNU Lesser General

Public License instead of this License.

MONTAGE Owner’s Manual

GNU LESSER GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE

Version 2.1, February 1999

Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies of this license document, but changing it is not allowed.

[This is the first released version of the Lesser GPL.

It also counts as the successor of the GNU Library Public License, version 2, hence the version number 2.1.]

Preamble

The licenses for most software are designed to take away your freedom to

share and change it. By contrast, the GNU General Public Licenses are

intended to guarantee your freedom to share and change free software—

to make sure the software is free for all its users.

This license, the Lesser General Public License, applies to some specially

designated software packages—typically libraries—of the Free Software

Foundation and other authors who decide to use it. You can use it too, but

we suggest you first think carefully about whether this license or the

ordinary General Public License is the better strategy to use in any

particular case, based on the explanations below.

When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom of use, not

price. Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that you

have the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge for this

service if you wish); that you receive source code or can get it if you want

it; that you can change the software and use pieces of it in new free

programs; and that you are informed that you can do these things.

To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that forbid distributors

to deny you these rights or to ask you to surrender these rights. These

restrictions translate to certain responsibilities for you if you distribute

copies of the library or if you modify it.

For example, if you distribute copies of the library, whether gratis or for a

fee, you must give the recipients all the rights that we gave you. You must

make sure that they, too, receive or can get the source code. If you link

other code with the library, you must provide complete object files to the

recipients, so that they can relink them with the library after making

changes to the library and recompiling it. And you must show them these

terms so they know their rights.

We protect your rights with a two-step method: (1) we copyright the

library, and (2) we offer you this license, which gives you legal permission

to copy, distribute and/or modify the library.

To protect each distributor, we want to make it very clear that there is no

warranty for the free library. Also, if the library is modified by someone

else and passed on, the recipients should know that what they have is not

the original version, so that the original author's reputation will not be

affected by problems that might be introduced by others.

Finally, software patents pose a constant threat to the existence of any

free program. We wish to make sure that a company cannot effectively

restrict the users of a free program by obtaining a restrictive license from

a patent holder. Therefore, we insist that any patent license obtained for a

version of the library must be consistent with the full freedom of use

specified in this license.

Most GNU software, including some libraries, is covered by the ordinary

GNU General Public License. This license, the GNU Lesser General

Public License, applies to certain designated libraries, and is quite

different from the ordinary General Public License. We use this license for

certain libraries in order to permit linking those libraries into non-free

programs.

When a program is linked with a library, whether statically or using a

shared library, the combination of the two is legally speaking a combined

work, a derivative of the original library. The ordinary General Public

License therefore permits such linking only if the entire combination fits its

criteria of freedom. The Lesser General Public License permits more lax

criteria for linking other code with the library.

We call this license the “Lesser” General Public License because it does

Less to protect the user’s freedom than the ordinary General Public

License. It also provides other free software developers Less of an

advantage over competing non-free programs. These disadvantages are

the reason we use the ordinary General Public License for many libraries.

However, the Lesser license provides advantages in certain special

circumstances.

For example, on rare occasions, there may be a special need to

encourage the widest possible use of a certain library, so that it becomes

a de-facto standard. To achieve this, non-free programs must be allowed

to use the library. A more frequent case is that a free library does the

same job as widely used non-free libraries. In this case, there is little to

gain by limiting the free library to free software only, so we use the Lesser

General Public License.

In other cases, permission to use a particular library in non-free programs

enables a greater number of people to use a large body of free software.

For example, permission to use the GNU C Library in non-free programs

enables many more people to use the whole GNU operating system, as

well as its variant, the GNU/Linux operating system.

Although the Lesser General Public License is Less protective of the

users’ freedom, it does ensure that the user of a program that is linked

with the Library has the freedom and the wherewithal to run that program

using a modified version of the Library.

The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and

modification follow. Pay close attention to the difference between a “work

based on the library” and a “work that uses the library”. The former

contains code derived from the library, whereas the latter must be

combined with the library in order to run.

GNU LESSER GENERAL PUBLIC

LICENSE

TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR

COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND

MODIFICATION

0. This License Agreement applies to any software library or other

program which contains a notice placed by the copyright holder or

other authorized party saying it may be distributed under the terms of

this Lesser General Public License (also called “this License”). Each

licensee is addressed as “you”.

A “library” means a collection of software functions and/or data

prepared so as to be conveniently linked with application programs

(which use some of those functions and data) to form executables.

The “Library”, below, refers to any such software library or work which

has been distributed under these terms. A “work based on the

Library” means either the Library or any derivative work under

of it, either verbatim or with modifications and/or translated

straightforwardly into another language. (Hereinafter, translation is

included without limitation in the term “modification”.)

“Source code” for a work means the preferred form of the work for

making modifications to it. For a library, complete source code

means all the source code for all modules it contains, plus any

associated interface definition files, plus the scripts used to control

compilation and installation of the library.

Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are not

covered by this License; they are outside its scope. The act of

running a program using the Library is not restricted, and output from

such a program is covered only if its contents constitute a work

based on the Library (independent of the use of the Library in a tool

for writing it). Whether that is true depends on what the Library does

and what the program that uses the Library does.

1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Library’s

complete source code as you receive it, in any medium, provided

that you conspicuously and appropriately publish on each copy an

appropriate copyright notice and disclaimer of warranty; keep intact

all the notices that refer to this License and to the absence of any

warranty; and distribute a copy of this License along with the Library.

You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy, and

you may at your option offer warranty protection in exchange for a

fee.

2. You may modify your copy or copies of the Library or any portion of it,

thus forming a work based on the Library, and copy and distribute

such modifications or work under the terms of Section 1 above,

provided that you also meet all of these conditions:

a) The modified work must itself be a software library.

b) You must cause the files modified to carry prominent notices

stating that you changed the files and the date of any change.

c) You must cause the whole of the work to be licensed at no charge

to all third parties under the terms of this License.

d) If a facility in the modified Library refers to a function or a table of

data to be supplied by an application program that uses the

facility, other than as an argument passed when the facility is

invoked, then you must make a good faith effort to ensure that, in

the event an application does not supply such function or table,

MONTAGE Owner’s Manual

the facility still operates, and performs whatever part of its

purpose remains meaningful.

(For example, a function in a library to compute square roots has a

purpose that is entirely well-defined independent of the

application. Therefore, Subsection 2d requires that any

application-supplied function or table used by this function must

be optional: if the application does not supply it, the square root

function must still compute square roots.)

These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole. If

identifiable sections of that work are not derived from the Library, and

can be reasonably considered independent and separate works in

themselves, then this License, and its terms, do not apply to those

sections when you distribute them as separate works. But when you

distribute the same sections as part of a whole which is a work based

on the Library, the distribution of the whole must be on the terms of

this License, whose permissions for other licensees extend to the

entire whole, and thus to each and every part regardless of who

wrote it.

Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest your

rights to work written entirely by you; rather, the intent is to exercise

the right to control the distribution of derivative or collective works

based on the Library.

In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the

Library with the Library (or with a work based on the Library) on a

volume of a storage or distribution medium does not bring the other

work under the scope of this License.

3. You may opt to apply the terms of the ordinary GNU General Public

License instead of this License to a given copy of the Library. To do

this, you must alter all the notices that refer to this License, so that

they refer to the ordinary GNU General Public License, version 2,

instead of to this License. (If a newer version than version 2 of the

ordinary GNU General Public License has appeared, then you can

specify that version instead if you wish.) Do not make any other

change in these notices.

Once this change is made in a given copy, it is irreversible for that

copy, so the ordinary GNU General Public License applies to all

subsequent copies and derivative works made from that copy.

This option is useful when you wish to copy part of the code of the

Library into a program that is not a library.

4. You may copy and distribute the Library (or a portion or derivative of

it, under Section 2) in object code or executable form under the terms

of Sections 1 and 2 above provided that you accompany it with the

complete corresponding machine-readable source code, which must

be distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a

medium customarily used for software interchange.

If distribution of object code is made by offering access to copy from

a designated place, then offering equivalent access to copy the

source code from the same place satisfies the requirement to

distribute the source code, even though third parties are not

compelled to copy the source along with the object code.

5. A program that contains no derivative of any portion of the Library,

but is designed to work with the Library by being compiled or linked

with it, is called a “work that uses the Library”. Such a work, in

isolation, is not a derivative work of the Library, and therefore falls

outside the scope of this License.

However, linking a “work that uses the Library” with the Library

creates an executable that is a derivative of the Library (because it

contains portions of the Library), rather than a “work that uses the

library”. The executable is therefore covered by this License.

Section 6 states terms for distribution of such executables.

When a “work that uses the Library” uses material from a header file

that is part of the Library, the object code for the work may be a

derivative work of the Library even though the source code is not.

Whether this is true is especially significant if the work can be linked

without the Library, or if the work is itself a library. The threshold for

this to be true is not precisely defined by law.

If such an object file uses only numerical parameters, data structure

layouts and accessors, and small macros and small inline functions

(ten lines or less in length), then the use of the object file is

unrestricted, regardless of whether it is legally a derivative work.

(Executables containing this object code plus portions of the Library

will still fall under Section 6.)

Otherwise, if the work is a derivative of the Library, you may distribute

the object code for the work under the terms of Section 6. Any

executables containing that work also fall under Section 6, whether or

not they are linked directly with the Library itself.

6. As an exception to the Sections above, you may also combine or link

a “work that uses the Library” with the Library to produce a work

containing portions of the Library, and distribute that work under

terms of your choice, provided that the terms permit modification of

the work for the customer's own use and reverse engineering for

debugging such modifications.

You must give prominent notice with each copy of the work that the

Library is used in it and that the Library and its use are covered by

this License. You must supply a copy of this License. If the work

during execution displays copyright notices, you must include the

directing the user to the copy of this License. Also, you must do one

of these things:

a) Accompany the work with the complete corresponding machine-

readable source code for the Library including whatever changes

were used in the work (which must be distributed under Sections

1 and 2 above); and, if the work is an executable linked with the

Library, with the complete machine-readable “work that uses the

Library”, as object code and/or source code, so that the user can

modify the Library and then relink to produce a modified

executable containing the modified Library. (It is understood that

the user who changes the contents of definitions files in the

Library will not necessarily be able to recompile the application to

use the modified definitions.)

b) Use a suitable shared library mechanism for linking with the

Library. A suitable mechanism is one that (1) uses at run time a

copy of the library already present on the user's computer system,

rather than copying library functions into the executable, and (2)

will operate properly with a modified version of the library, if the

user installs one, as long as the modified version is interface-

compatible with the version that the work was made with.

c) Accompany the work with a written offer, valid for at least three

years, to give the same user the materials specified in Subsection

6a, above, for a charge no more than the cost of performing this

distribution.

d) If distribution of the work is made by offering access to copy from

a designated place, offer equivalent access to copy the above

specified materials from the same place.

e) Verify that the user has already received a copy of these materials

or that you have already sent this user a copy.

For an executable, the required form of the “work that uses the

Library” must include any data and utility programs needed for

reproducing the executable from it. However, as a special exception,

the materials to be distributed need not include anything that is

normally distributed (in either source or binary form) with the major

components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of the operating system on

which the executable runs, unless that component itself

accompanies the executable.

It may happen that this requirement contradicts the license

restrictions of other proprietary libraries that do not normally

accompany the operating system. Such a contradiction means you

cannot use both them and the Library together in an executable that

you distribute.

7. You may place library facilities that are a work based on the Library

side-by-side in a single library together with other library facilities not

covered by this License, and distribute such a combined library,

provided that the separate distribution of the work based on the

Library and of the other library facilities is otherwise permitted, and

provided that you do these two things:

a) Accompany the combined library with a copy of the same work

based on the Library, uncombined with any other library facilities.

This must be distributed under the terms of the Sections above.

b) Give prominent notice with the combined library of the fact that

part of it is a work based on the Library, and explaining where to

find the accompanying uncombined form of the same work.

8. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, link with, or distribute the

Library except as expressly provided under this License. Any

attempt otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense, link with, or distribute

the Library is void, and will automatically terminate your rights under

this License. However, parties who have received copies, or rights,

from you under this License will not have their licenses terminated so

long as such parties remain in full compliance.

9. You are not required to accept this License, since you have not

signed it. However, nothing else grants you permission to modify or

distribute the Library or its derivative works. These actions are

prohibited by law if you do not accept this License. Therefore, by

modifying or distributing the Library (or any work based on the

Library), you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so, and

all its terms and conditions for copying, distributing or modifying the

Library or works based on it.

10. Each time you redistribute the Library (or any work based on the

Library), the recipient automatically receives a license from the

original licensor to copy, distribute, link with or modify the Library

subject to these terms and conditions. You may not impose any

further restrictions on the recipients’ exercise of the rights granted

herein. You are not responsible for enforcing compliance by third

parties with this License.

MONTAGE Owner’s Manual

11. If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent

infringement or for any other reason (not limited to patent issues),

conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or

otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not

excuse you from the conditions of this License. If you cannot

distribute so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this

License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence

you may not distribute the Library at all. For example, if a patent

license would not permit royalty-free redistribution of the Library by all

those who receive copies directly or indirectly through you, then the

only way you could satisfy both it and this License would be to refrain

entirely from distribution of the Library.

If any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable under

any particular circumstance, the balance of the section is intended to

apply, and the section as a whole is intended to apply in other

circumstances.

It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe any

patents or other property right claims or to contest validity of any

such claims; this section has the sole purpose of protecting the

integrity of the free software distribution system which is implemented

by public license practices. Many people have made generous

contributions to the wide range of software distributed through that

system in reliance on consistent application of that system; it is up to

the author/donor to decide if he or she is willing to distribute software

through any other system and a licensee cannot impose that choice.

This section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is believed to

be a consequence of the rest of this License.

12. If the distribution and/or use of the Library is restricted in certain

countries either by patents or by copyrighted interfaces, the original

an explicit geographical distribution limitation excluding those

countries, so that distribution is permitted only in or among countries

not thus excluded. In such case, this License incorporates the

limitation as if written in the body of this License.

13. The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new

versions of the Lesser General Public License from time to time.

Such new versions will be similar in spirit to the present version, but

may differ in detail to address new problems or concerns.

Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the Library

specifies a version number of this License which applies to it and

“any later version”, you have the option of following the terms and

conditions either of that version or of any later version published by

the Free Software Foundation. If the Library does not specify a

license version number, you may choose any version ever published

by the Free Software Foundation.

14. If you wish to incorporate parts of the Library into other free programs

whose distribution conditions are incompatible with these, write to the

author to ask for permission. For software which is copyrighted by

the Free Software Foundation, write to the Free Software Foundation;

we sometimes make exceptions for this. Our decision will be guided

by the two goals of preserving the free status of all derivatives of our

free software and of promoting the sharing and reuse of software

generally.

NO WARRANTY

15. BECAUSE THE LIBRARY IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE, THERE

IS NO WARRANTY FOR THE LIBRARY, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED

BY APPLICABLE LAW. EXCEPT WHEN OTHERWISE STATED IN

WRITING THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER PARTIES

PROVIDE THE LIBRARY “AS IS” WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY

KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT

LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY

AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. THE ENTIRE RISK

AS TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF TH LIBRARY IS WITH

YOU. SHOULD THE LIBRARY PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME

THE COST OF ALL NECESSARY SERVICING, REPAIR OR

CORRECTION.

16. IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR

AGREED TO IN WRITING WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY

OTHER PARTY WHO MAY MODIFY AND/OR REDISTRIBUTE THE

LIBRARY AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR

DAMAGES, INCLUDING ANY GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR

CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THE USE OR

INABILITY TO USE THE LIBRARY (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED

TO LOSS OF DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED INACCURATE OR

LOSSES SUSTAINED BY YOU OR THIRD PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF

THE LIBRARY TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER SOFTWARE), EVEN

IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE

POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS

How to Apply These Terms to Your New

Libraries

If you develop a new library, and you want it to be of the greatest possible

use to the public, we recommend making it free software that everyone

can redistribute and change. You can do so by permitting redistribution

under these terms (or, alternatively, under the terms of the ordinary

General Public License).

To apply these terms, attach the following notices to the library. It is safest

to attach them to the start of each source file to most effectively convey

the exclusion of warranty; and each file should have at least the

“copyright” line and a pointer to where the full notice is found.

This library is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify it

under the terms of the GNU Lesser General Public License as

published by the Free Software Foundation; either version 2.1 of the

License, or (at your option) any later version.

This library is distributed in the hope that it will be useful, but

WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of

MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.

See the GNU Lesser General Public License for more details.

You should have received a copy of the GNU Lesser General Public

License along with this library; if not, write to the Free Software

Foundation, Inc., 51 Franklin Street, Fifth Floor, Boston, MA 02110-

1301 USA

Also add information on how to contact you by electronic and paper mail.

You should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer) or your

school, if any, to sign a “copyright disclaimer” for the library, if necessary.
