+To "modify" a work means to copy from or adapt all or part of the work in a fashion requiring copyright permission, other than the making of an exact copy. 
+
+A "Licensed Work" includes any means that is protectable under applicable copyright law, including unmodified code or a work based on the code.
+
+To "propagate" a work means to do anything with it that, without permission, would make you directly or secondarily liable for infringement under applicable copyright law, except executing it on a computer. Propagation includes copying, distribution (with or without modification), making available to the public, and in some countries other activities as well.
