SANE exception: As a special exception, the authors of SANE give permission for additional uses of the libraries contained in this release of SANE. The exception is that, if you link a SANE library with other files to produce an executable, this does not by itself cause the resulting executable to be covered by the GNU General Public License. Your use of that executable is in no way restricted on account of linking the SANE library code into it. This exception does not, however, invalidate any other reasons why the executable file might be covered by the GNU General Public License. If you submit changes to SANE to the maintainers to be included in a subsequent release, you agree by submitting the changes that those changes may be distributed with this exception intact. If you write modifications of your own for SANE, it is your choice whether to permit this exception to apply to your modifications. If you do not wish that, delete this exception notice. Exception for the epkowa libs: Linking the EPKOWA SANE backend statically or dynamically with other modules is making a combined work based on the EPKOWA SANE backend. Thus, the terms and conditions of the GNU General Public License cover the whole combination. As a special exception, the copyright holders of the EPKOWA SANE backend give you permission to link the EPKOWA SANE backend with independent modules that communicate with the EPKOWA SANE backend solely through the "Interpreter" interface, regardless of the license terms of these independent modules, and to copy and distribute the resulting combined work under terms of your choice, provided that every copy of the combined work is accompanied by a complete copy of the source code of the EPKOWA SANE backend (the version of the EPKOWA SANE backend used to produce the combined work), being distributed under the terms of the GNU General Public License plus this exception. An independent module is a module which is not derived from or based on the EPKOWA SANE backend. Note that people who make modified versions of the EPKOWA SANE backend are not obligated to grant this special exception for their modified versions; it is their choice whether to do so. The GNU General Public License gives permission to release a modified version without this exception; this exception also makes it possible to release a modified version which carries forward this exception.
