+European Union Public Licence
+V. 1.1
+
+EUPL © the European Community 2007
+
+This European Union Public Licence (the “EUPL”) applies to the Work or
+Software (as defined below) which is provided under the terms of this
+Licence. Any use of the Work, other than as authorised under this
+Licence is prohibited (to the extent such use is covered by a right of
+the copyright holder of the Work).
+
+The Original Work is provided under the terms of this Licence when the
+Licensor (as defined below) has placed the following notice
+immediately following the copyright notice for the Original Work:
+
+Licensed under the EUPL V.1.1
+
+or has expressed by any other mean his willingness to license under
+the EUPL.
+
+1. Definitions
+
+In this Licence, the following terms have the following meaning:
+
+- The Licence: this Licence.
+
+- The Original Work or the Software: the software distributed and/or
+communicated by the Licensor under this Licence, available as Source
+Code and also as Executable Code as the case may be.
+
+- Derivative Works: the works or software that could be created by the
+Licensee, based upon the Original Work or modifications thereof. This
+Licence does not define the extent of modification or dependence on
+the Original Work required in order to classify a work as a Derivative
+Work; this extent is determined by copyright law applicable in the
+country mentioned in Article 15.
+
+- The Work: the Original Work and/or its Derivative Works.
+
+- The Source Code: the human-readable form of the Work which is the
+most convenient for people to study and modify.
+
+- The Executable Code: any code which has generally been compiled and
+which is meant to be interpreted by a computer as a program.
+
+- The Licensor: the natural or legal person that distributes and/or
+communicates the Work under the Licence.
+
+- Contributor(s): any natural or legal person who modifies the Work
+under the Licence, or otherwise contributes to the creation of a
+Derivative Work.
+
+- The Licensee or “You”: any natural or legal person who makes any
+usage of the Software under the terms of the Licence.
+
+- Distribution and/or Communication: any act of selling, giving,
+lending, renting, distributing, communicating, transmitting, or
+otherwise making available, on-line or off-line, copies of the Work or
+providing access to its essential functionalities at the disposal of
+any other natural or legal person.
+
+2. Scope of the rights granted by the Licence
+
+The Licensor hereby grants You a world-wide, royalty-free,
+non-exclusive, sublicensable licence to do the following, for the
+duration of copyright vested in the Original Work:
+
+- use the Work in any circumstance and for all usage,
+
+- reproduce the Work,
+
+- modify the Original Work, and make Derivative Works based upon the Work,
+
+- communicate to the public, including the right to make available or
+display the Work or copies thereof to the public and perform publicly,
+as the case may be, the Work,
+
+- distribute the Work or copies thereof,
+
+- lend and rent the Work or copies thereof,
+
+- sub-license rights in the Work or copies thereof.
+
+Those rights can be exercised on any media, supports and formats,
+whether now known or later invented, as far as the applicable law
+permits so.
+
+In the countries where moral rights apply, the Licensor waives his
+right to exercise his moral right to the extent allowed by law in
+order to make effective the licence of the economic rights here above
+listed.
+
+The Licensor grants to the Licensee royalty-free, non exclusive usage
+rights to any patents held by the Licensor, to the extent necessary to
+make use of the rights granted on the Work under this Licence.
+
+3. Communication of the Source Code
+
+The Licensor may provide the Work either in its Source Code form, or
+as Executable Code. If the Work is provided as Executable Code, the
+Licensor provides in addition a machine-readable copy of the Source
+Code of the Work along with each copy of the Work that the Licensor
+distributes or indicates, in a notice following the copyright notice
+attached to the Work, a repository where the Source Code is easily and
+freely accessible for as long as the Licensor continues to distribute
+and/or communicate the Work.
+
+4. Limitations on copyright
+
+Nothing in this Licence is intended to deprive the Licensee of the
+benefits from any exception or limitation to the exclusive rights of
+the rights owners in the Original Work or Software, of the exhaustion
+of those rights or of other applicable limitations thereto.
+
+5. Obligations of the Licensee
+
+The grant of the rights mentioned above is subject to some
+restrictions and obligations imposed on the Licensee. Those
+obligations are the following:
+
+Attribution right: the Licensee shall keep intact all copyright,
+patent or trademarks notices and all notices that refer to the Licence
+and to the disclaimer of warranties. The Licensee must include a copy
+of such notices and a copy of the Licence with every copy of the Work
+he/she distributes and/or communicates. The Licensee must cause any
+Derivative Work to carry prominent notices stating that the Work has
+been modified and the date of modification.
+
+Copyleft clause: If the Licensee distributes and/or communicates
+copies of the Original Works or Derivative Works based upon the
+Original Work, this Distribution and/or Communication will be done
+under the terms of this Licence or of a later version of this Licence
+unless the Original Work is expressly distributed only under this
+version of the Licence. The Licensee (becoming Licensor) cannot offer
+or impose any additional terms or conditions on the Work or Derivative
+Work that alter or restrict the terms of the Licence.
+
+Compatibility clause: If the Licensee Distributes and/or Communicates
+Derivative Works or copies thereof based upon both the Original Work
+and another work licensed under a Compatible Licence, this
+Distribution and/or Communication can be done under the terms of this
+Compatible Licence. For the sake of this clause, “Compatible Licence”
+refers to the licences listed in the appendix attached to this
+Licence. Should the Licensee’s obligations under the Compatible
+Licence conflict with his/her obligations under this Licence, the
+obligations of the Compatible Licence shall prevail.
+
+Provision of Source Code: When distributing and/or communicating
+copies of the Work, the Licensee will provide a machine-readable copy
+of the Source Code or indicate a repository where this Source will be
+easily and freely available for as long as the Licensee continues to
+distribute and/or communicate the Work.
+
+Legal Protection: This Licence does not grant permission to use the
+trade names, trademarks, service marks, or names of the Licensor,
+except as required for reasonable and customary use in describing the
+origin of the Work and reproducing the content of the copyright
+notice.
+
+6. Chain of Authorship
+
+The original Licensor warrants that the copyright in the Original Work
+granted hereunder is owned by him/her or licensed to him/her and that
+he/she has the power and authority to grant the Licence.
+
+Each Contributor warrants that the copyright in the modifications
+he/she brings to the Work are owned by him/her or licensed to him/her
+and that he/she has the power and authority to grant the Licence.
+
+Each time You accept the Licence, the original Licensor and subsequent
+Contributors grant You a licence to their contributions to the Work,
+under the terms of this Licence.
+
+7. Disclaimer of Warranty
+
+The Work is a work in progress, which is continuously improved by
+numerous contributors. It is not a finished work and may therefore
+contain defects or “bugs” inherent to this type of software
+development.
+
+For the above reason, the Work is provided under the Licence on an “as
+is” basis and without warranties of any kind concerning the Work,
+including without limitation merchantability, fitness for a particular
+purpose, absence of defects or errors, accuracy, non-infringement of
+intellectual property rights other than copyright as stated in Article
+6 of this Licence.
+
+This disclaimer of warranty is an essential part of the Licence and a
+condition for the grant of any rights to the Work.
+
+8. Disclaimer of Liability
+
+Except in the cases of wilful misconduct or damages directly caused to
+natural persons, the Licensor will in no event be liable for any
+direct or indirect, material or moral, damages of any kind, arising
+out of the Licence or of the use of the Work, including without
+limitation, damages for loss of goodwill, work stoppage, computer
+failure or malfunction, loss of data or any commercial damage, even if
+the Licensor has been advised of the possibility of such damage.
+However, the Licensor will be liable under statutory product liability
+laws as far such laws apply to the Work.
+
+9. Additional agreements
+
+While distributing the Original Work or Derivative Works, You may
+choose to conclude an additional agreement to offer, and charge a fee
+for, acceptance of support, warranty, indemnity, or other liability
+obligations and/or services consistent with this Licence. However, in
+accepting such obligations, You may act only on your own behalf and on
+your sole responsibility, not on behalf of the original Licensor or
+any other Contributor, and only if You agree to indemnify, defend, and
+hold each Contributor harmless for any liability incurred by, or
+claims asserted against such Contributor by the fact You have accepted
+any such warranty or additional liability.
+
+10. Acceptance of the Licence
+
+The provisions of this Licence can be accepted by clicking on an icon
+“I agree” placed under the bottom of a window displaying the text of
+this Licence or by affirming consent in any other similar way, in
+accordance with the rules of applicable law. Clicking on that icon
+indicates your clear and irrevocable acceptance of this Licence and
+all of its terms and conditions.
+
+Similarly, you irrevocably accept this Licence and all of its terms
+and conditions by exercising any rights granted to You by Article 2 of
+this Licence, such as the use of the Work, the creation by You of a
+Derivative Work or the Distribution and/or Communication by You of the
+Work or copies thereof.
+
+11. Information to the public
+
+In case of any Distribution and/or Communication of the Work by means
+of electronic communication by You (for example, by offering to
+download the Work from a remote location) the distribution channel or
+media (for example, a website) must at least provide to the public the
+information requested by the applicable law regarding the Licensor,
+the Licence and the way it may be accessible, concluded, stored and
+reproduced by the Licensee.
+
+12. Termination of the Licence
+
+The Licence and the rights granted hereunder will terminate
+automatically upon any breach by the Licensee of the terms of the
+Licence.
+
+Such a termination will not terminate the licences of any person who
+has received the Work from the Licensee under the Licence, provided
+such persons remain in full compliance with the Licence.
+
+13. Miscellaneous
+
+Without prejudice of Article 9 above, the Licence represents the
+complete agreement between the Parties as to the Work licensed
+hereunder.
+
+If any provision of the Licence is invalid or unenforceable under
+applicable law, this will not affect the validity or enforceability of
+the Licence as a whole. Such provision will be construed and/or
+reformed so as necessary to make it valid and enforceable.
+
+The European Commission may publish other linguistic versions and/or
+new versions of this Licence, so far this is required and reasonable,
+without reducing the scope of the rights granted by the Licence. New
+versions of the Licence will be published with a unique version
+number.
+
+All linguistic versions of this Licence, approved by the European
+Commission, have identical value. Parties can take advantage of the
+linguistic version of their choice.
+
+14. Jurisdiction
+
+Any litigation resulting from the interpretation of this License,
+arising between the European Commission, as a Licensor, and any
+Licensee, will be subject to the jurisdiction of the Court of Justice
+of the European Communities, as laid down in article 238 of the Treaty
+establishing the European Community.
+
+Any litigation arising between Parties, other than the European
+Commission, and resulting from the interpretation of this License,
+will be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the competent court
+where the Licensor resides or conducts its primary business.
+
+15. Applicable Law
+
+This Licence shall be governed by the law of the European Union
+country where the Licensor resides or has his registered office.
+
+This licence shall be governed by the Belgian law if:
+
+- a litigation arises between the European Commission, as a Licensor, and any
+Licensee;
