! 17: PREAMBLE
! 18:
! 19: The purpose of this License is to make a manual, textbook, or other
! 20: written document @dfn{free} in the sense of freedom: to assure everyone
! 21: the effective freedom to copy and redistribute it, with or without
! 22: modifying it, either commercially or noncommercially. Secondarily,
! 23: this License preserves for the author and publisher a way to get
! 24: credit for their work, while not being considered responsible for
! 25: modifications made by others.
! 26:
! 27: This License is a kind of ``copyleft'', which means that derivative
! 28: works of the document must themselves be free in the same sense. It
! 29: complements the GNU General Public License, which is a copyleft
! 30: license designed for free software.
! 31:
! 32: We have designed this License in order to use it for manuals for free
! 33: software, because free software needs free documentation: a free
! 34: program should come with manuals providing the same freedoms that the
! 35: software does. But this License is not limited to software manuals;
! 36: it can be used for any textual work, regardless of subject matter or
! 37: whether it is published as a printed book. We recommend this License
! 38: principally for works whose purpose is instruction or reference.
! 39:
! 40: @item
! 41: APPLICABILITY AND DEFINITIONS
! 42:
! 43: This License applies to any manual or other work that contains a
! 44: notice placed by the copyright holder saying it can be distributed
! 45: under the terms of this License. The ``Document'', below, refers to any
! 46: such manual or work. Any member of the public is a licensee, and is
! 47: addressed as ``you''.
! 48:
! 49: A ``Modified Version'' of the Document means any work containing the
! 50: Document or a portion of it, either copied verbatim, or with
! 51: modifications and/or translated into another language.
! 52:
! 53: A ``Secondary Section'' is a named appendix or a front-matter section of
! 54: the Document that deals exclusively with the relationship of the
! 55: publishers or authors of the Document to the Document's overall subject
! 56: (or to related matters) and contains nothing that could fall directly
! 57: within that overall subject. (For example, if the Document is in part a
! 58: textbook of mathematics, a Secondary Section may not explain any
! 59: mathematics.) The relationship could be a matter of historical
! 60: connection with the subject or with related matters, or of legal,
! 61: commercial, philosophical, ethical or political position regarding
! 62: them.
! 63:
! 64: The ``Invariant Sections'' are certain Secondary Sections whose titles
! 65: are designated, as being those of Invariant Sections, in the notice
! 66: that says that the Document is released under this License.
! 67:
! 68: The ``Cover Texts'' are certain short passages of text that are listed,
! 69: as Front-Cover Texts or Back-Cover Texts, in the notice that says that
! 70: the Document is released under this License.
! 71:
! 72: A ``Transparent'' copy of the Document means a machine-readable copy,
! 73: represented in a format whose specification is available to the
! 74: general public, whose contents can be viewed and edited directly and
! 75: straightforwardly with generic text editors or (for images composed of
! 76: pixels) generic paint programs or (for drawings) some widely available
! 77: drawing editor, and that is suitable for input to text formatters or
! 78: for automatic translation to a variety of formats suitable for input
! 79: to text formatters. A copy made in an otherwise Transparent file
! 80: format whose markup has been designed to thwart or discourage
! 81: subsequent modification by readers is not Transparent. A copy that is
! 82: not ``Transparent'' is called ``Opaque''.
! 83:
! 84: Examples of suitable formats for Transparent copies include plain
! 85: @sc{ascii} without markup, Texinfo input format, La@TeX{} input format,
! 86: @acronym{SGML} or @acronym{XML} using a publicly available
! 87: @acronym{DTD}, and standard-conforming simple @acronym{HTML} designed
! 88: for human modification. Opaque formats include PostScript,
! 89: @acronym{PDF}, proprietary formats that can be read and edited only by
! 90: proprietary word processors, @acronym{SGML} or @acronym{XML} for which
! 91: the @acronym{DTD} and/or processing tools are not generally available,
! 92: and the machine-generated @acronym{HTML} produced by some word
! 93: processors for output purposes only.
! 94:
! 95: The ``Title Page'' means, for a printed book, the title page itself,
! 96: plus such following pages as are needed to hold, legibly, the material
! 97: this License requires to appear in the title page. For works in
! 98: formats which do not have any title page as such, ``Title Page'' means
! 99: the text near the most prominent appearance of the work's title,
! 100: preceding the beginning of the body of the text.
! 101:
! 102: @item
! 103: VERBATIM COPYING
! 104:
! 105: You may copy and distribute the Document in any medium, either
! 106: commercially or noncommercially, provided that this License, the
! 107: copyright notices, and the license notice saying this License applies
! 108: to the Document are reproduced in all copies, and that you add no other
! 109: conditions whatsoever to those of this License. You may not use
! 110: technical measures to obstruct or control the reading or further
! 111: copying of the copies you make or distribute. However, you may accept
! 112: compensation in exchange for copies. If you distribute a large enough
! 113: number of copies you must also follow the conditions in section 3.
! 114:
! 115: You may also lend copies, under the same conditions stated above, and
! 116: you may publicly display copies.
! 117:
! 118: @item
! 119: COPYING IN QUANTITY
! 120:
! 121: If you publish printed copies of the Document numbering more than 100,
! 122: and the Document's license notice requires Cover Texts, you must enclose
! 123: the copies in covers that carry, clearly and legibly, all these Cover
! 124: Texts: Front-Cover Texts on the front cover, and Back-Cover Texts on
! 125: the back cover. Both covers must also clearly and legibly identify
! 126: you as the publisher of these copies. The front cover must present
! 127: the full title with all words of the title equally prominent and
! 128: visible. You may add other material on the covers in addition.
! 129: Copying with changes limited to the covers, as long as they preserve
! 130: the title of the Document and satisfy these conditions, can be treated
! 131: as verbatim copying in other respects.
! 132:
! 133: If the required texts for either cover are too voluminous to fit
! 134: legibly, you should put the first ones listed (as many as fit
! 135: reasonably) on the actual cover, and continue the rest onto adjacent
! 136: pages.
! 137:
! 138: If you publish or distribute Opaque copies of the Document numbering
! 139: more than 100, you must either include a machine-readable Transparent
! 140: copy along with each Opaque copy, or state in or with each Opaque copy
! 141: a publicly-accessible computer-network location containing a complete
! 142: Transparent copy of the Document, free of added material, which the
! 143: general network-using public has access to download anonymously at no
! 144: charge using public-standard network protocols. If you use the latter
! 145: option, you must take reasonably prudent steps, when you begin
! 146: distribution of Opaque copies in quantity, to ensure that this
! 147: Transparent copy will remain thus accessible at the stated location
! 148: until at least one year after the last time you distribute an Opaque
! 149: copy (directly or through your agents or retailers) of that edition to
! 150: the public.
! 151:
! 152: It is requested, but not required, that you contact the authors of the
! 153: Document well before redistributing any large number of copies, to give
! 154: them a chance to provide you with an updated version of the Document.
! 155:
! 156: @item
! 157: MODIFICATIONS
! 158:
! 159: You may copy and distribute a Modified Version of the Document under
! 160: the conditions of sections 2 and 3 above, provided that you release
! 161: the Modified Version under precisely this License, with the Modified
! 162: Version filling the role of the Document, thus licensing distribution
! 163: and modification of the Modified Version to whoever possesses a copy
! 164: of it. In addition, you must do these things in the Modified Version:
! 165:
! 166: @enumerate A
! 167: @item
! 168: Use in the Title Page (and on the covers, if any) a title distinct
! 169: from that of the Document, and from those of previous versions
! 170: (which should, if there were any, be listed in the History section
! 171: of the Document). You may use the same title as a previous version
! 172: if the original publisher of that version gives permission.
! 173:
! 174: @item
! 175: List on the Title Page, as authors, one or more persons or entities
! 176: responsible for authorship of the modifications in the Modified
! 177: Version, together with at least five of the principal authors of the
! 178: Document (all of its principal authors, if it has less than five).
! 179:
! 180: @item
! 181: State on the Title page the name of the publisher of the
! 182: Modified Version, as the publisher.
! 183:
! 184: @item
! 185: Preserve all the copyright notices of the Document.
! 186:
! 187: @item
! 188: Add an appropriate copyright notice for your modifications
! 189: adjacent to the other copyright notices.
! 190:
! 191: @item
! 192: Include, immediately after the copyright notices, a license notice
! 193: giving the public permission to use the Modified Version under the
! 194: terms of this License, in the form shown in the Addendum below.
! 195:
! 196: @item
! 197: Preserve in that license notice the full lists of Invariant Sections
! 198: and required Cover Texts given in the Document's license notice.
! 199:
! 200: @item
! 201: Include an unaltered copy of this License.
! 202:
! 203: @item
! 204: Preserve the section entitled ``History'', and its title, and add to
! 205: it an item stating at least the title, year, new authors, and
! 206: publisher of the Modified Version as given on the Title Page. If
! 207: there is no section entitled ``History'' in the Document, create one
! 208: stating the title, year, authors, and publisher of the Document as
! 209: given on its Title Page, then add an item describing the Modified
! 210: Version as stated in the previous sentence.
! 211:
! 212: @item
! 213: Preserve the network location, if any, given in the Document for
! 214: public access to a Transparent copy of the Document, and likewise
! 215: the network locations given in the Document for previous versions
! 216: it was based on. These may be placed in the ``History'' section.
! 217: You may omit a network location for a work that was published at
! 218: least four years before the Document itself, or if the original
! 219: publisher of the version it refers to gives permission.
! 220:
! 221: @item
! 222: In any section entitled ``Acknowledgments'' or ``Dedications'',
! 223: preserve the section's title, and preserve in the section all the
! 224: substance and tone of each of the contributor acknowledgments
! 225: and/or dedications given therein.
! 226:
! 227: @item
! 228: Preserve all the Invariant Sections of the Document,
! 229: unaltered in their text and in their titles. Section numbers
! 230: or the equivalent are not considered part of the section titles.
! 231:
! 232: @item
! 233: Delete any section entitled ``Endorsements''. Such a section
! 234: may not be included in the Modified Version.
! 235:
! 236: @item
! 237: Do not retitle any existing section as ``Endorsements''
! 238: or to conflict in title with any Invariant Section.
! 239: @end enumerate
! 240:
! 241: If the Modified Version includes new front-matter sections or
! 242: appendices that qualify as Secondary Sections and contain no material
! 243: copied from the Document, you may at your option designate some or all
! 244: of these sections as invariant. To do this, add their titles to the
! 245: list of Invariant Sections in the Modified Version's license notice.
! 246: These titles must be distinct from any other section titles.
! 247:
! 248: You may add a section entitled ``Endorsements'', provided it contains
! 249: nothing but endorsements of your Modified Version by various
! 250: parties---for example, statements of peer review or that the text has
! 251: been approved by an organization as the authoritative definition of a
! 252: standard.
! 253:
! 254: You may add a passage of up to five words as a Front-Cover Text, and a
! 255: passage of up to 25 words as a Back-Cover Text, to the end of the list
! 256: of Cover Texts in the Modified Version. Only one passage of
! 257: Front-Cover Text and one of Back-Cover Text may be added by (or
! 258: through arrangements made by) any one entity. If the Document already
! 259: includes a cover text for the same cover, previously added by you or
! 260: by arrangement made by the same entity you are acting on behalf of,
! 261: you may not add another; but you may replace the old one, on explicit
! 262: permission from the previous publisher that added the old one.
! 263:
! 264: The author(s) and publisher(s) of the Document do not by this License
! 265: give permission to use their names for publicity for or to assert or
! 266: imply endorsement of any Modified Version.
! 267:
! 268: @item
! 269: COMBINING DOCUMENTS
! 270:
! 271: You may combine the Document with other documents released under this
! 272: License, under the terms defined in section 4 above for modified
! 273: versions, provided that you include in the combination all of the
! 274: Invariant Sections of all of the original documents, unmodified, and
! 275: list them all as Invariant Sections of your combined work in its
! 276: license notice.
! 277:
! 278: The combined work need only contain one copy of this License, and
! 279: multiple identical Invariant Sections may be replaced with a single
! 280: copy. If there are multiple Invariant Sections with the same name but
! 281: different contents, make the title of each such section unique by
! 282: adding at the end of it, in parentheses, the name of the original
! 283: author or publisher of that section if known, or else a unique number.
! 284: Make the same adjustment to the section titles in the list of
! 285: Invariant Sections in the license notice of the combined work.
! 286:
! 287: In the combination, you must combine any sections entitled ``History''
! 288: in the various original documents, forming one section entitled
! 289: ``History''; likewise combine any sections entitled ``Acknowledgments'',
! 290: and any sections entitled ``Dedications''. You must delete all sections
! 291: entitled ``Endorsements.''
! 292:
! 293: @item
! 294: COLLECTIONS OF DOCUMENTS
! 295:
! 296: You may make a collection consisting of the Document and other documents
! 297: released under this License, and replace the individual copies of this
! 298: License in the various documents with a single copy that is included in
! 299: the collection, provided that you follow the rules of this License for
! 300: verbatim copying of each of the documents in all other respects.
! 301:
! 302: You may extract a single document from such a collection, and distribute
! 303: it individually under this License, provided you insert a copy of this
! 304: License into the extracted document, and follow this License in all
! 305: other respects regarding verbatim copying of that document.
! 306:
! 307: @item
! 308: AGGREGATION WITH INDEPENDENT WORKS
! 309:
! 310: A compilation of the Document or its derivatives with other separate
! 311: and independent documents or works, in or on a volume of a storage or
! 312: distribution medium, does not as a whole count as a Modified Version
! 313: of the Document, provided no compilation copyright is claimed for the
! 314: compilation. Such a compilation is called an ``aggregate'', and this
! 315: License does not apply to the other self-contained works thus compiled
! 316: with the Document, on account of their being thus compiled, if they
! 317: are not themselves derivative works of the Document.
! 318:
! 319: If the Cover Text requirement of section 3 is applicable to these
! 320: copies of the Document, then if the Document is less than one quarter
! 321: of the entire aggregate, the Document's Cover Texts may be placed on
! 322: covers that surround only the Document within the aggregate.
! 323: Otherwise they must appear on covers around the whole aggregate.
! 324:
! 325: @item
! 326: TRANSLATION
! 327:
! 328: Translation is considered a kind of modification, so you may
! 329: distribute translations of the Document under the terms of section 4.
! 330: Replacing Invariant Sections with translations requires special
! 331: permission from their copyright holders, but you may include
! 332: translations of some or all Invariant Sections in addition to the
! 333: original versions of these Invariant Sections. You may include a
! 334: translation of this License provided that you also include the
! 335: original English version of this License. In case of a disagreement
! 336: between the translation and the original English version of this
! 337: License, the original English version will prevail.
! 338:
! 339: @item
! 340: TERMINATION
! 341:
! 342: You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the Document except
! 343: as expressly provided for under this License. Any other attempt to
! 344: copy, modify, sublicense or distribute the Document is void, and will
! 345: automatically terminate your rights under this License. However,
! 346: parties who have received copies, or rights, from you under this
! 347: License will not have their licenses terminated so long as such
! 348: parties remain in full compliance.
! 349:
! 350: @item
! 351: FUTURE REVISIONS OF THIS LICENSE
! 352:
! 353: The Free Software Foundation may publish new, revised versions
! 354: of the GNU Free Documentation License from time to time. Such new
! 355: versions will be similar in spirit to the present version, but may
! 356: differ in detail to address new problems or concerns. See
! 357: @uref{http://www.gnu.org/licenses/}.
! 358:
! 359: Each version of the License is given a distinguishing version number.
! 360: If the Document specifies that a particular numbered version of this
! 361: License ``or any later version'' applies to it, you have the option of
! 362: following the terms and conditions either of that specified version or
! 363: of any later version that has been published (not as a draft) by the
! 364: Free Software Foundation. If the Document does not specify a version
! 365: number of this License, you may choose any version ever published (not
! 366: as a draft) by the Free Software Foundation.
