LINKING EXCEPTION

Routing is distributed under the terms of the GNU General Public
License (v3) with the following clarification and special exception.
Linking this library statically or dynamically with other modules is
making a combined work based on this library. Thus, the terms and
conditions of the GNU General Public License cover the whole
combination. As a special exception, the copyright holders of this
library give you permission to link this library with independent
modules to produce an executable, regardless of the license terms of
these independent modules, and to copy and distribute the resulting
executable under terms of your choice, provided that you also meet,
for each linked independent module, the terms and conditions of the
license of that module. An independent module is a module which is not
derived from or based on this library. If you modify this library, you
may extend this exception to your version of the library, but you are
not obliged to do so. If you do not wish to do so, delete this
exception statement from your version.
