9Inc. <http://fsf.org/>
10
11Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies of this
12license document, but changing it is not allowed.
13
14#### 0. PREAMBLE
15
16The purpose of this License is to make a manual, textbook, or other
17functional and useful document "free" in the sense of freedom: to
18assure everyone the effective freedom to copy and redistribute it,
19with or without modifying it, either commercially or noncommercially.
20Secondarily, this License preserves for the author and publisher a way
21to get credit for their work, while not being considered responsible
22for modifications made by others.
23
24This License is a kind of "copyleft", which means that derivative
25works of the document must themselves be free in the same sense. It
26complements the GNU General Public License, which is a copyleft
27license designed for free software.
28
29We have designed this License in order to use it for manuals for free
30software, because free software needs free documentation: a free
31program should come with manuals providing the same freedoms that the
32software does. But this License is not limited to software manuals; it
33can be used for any textual work, regardless of subject matter or
34whether it is published as a printed book. We recommend this License
35principally for works whose purpose is instruction or reference.
36
37#### 1. APPLICABILITY AND DEFINITIONS
38
39This License applies to any manual or other work, in any medium, that
40contains a notice placed by the copyright holder saying it can be
41distributed under the terms of this License. Such a notice grants a
42world-wide, royalty-free license, unlimited in duration, to use that
43work under the conditions stated herein. The "Document", below, refers
44to any such manual or work. Any member of the public is a licensee,
45and is addressed as "you". You accept the license if you copy, modify
46or distribute the work in a way requiring permission under copyright
47law.
48
49A "Modified Version" of the Document means any work containing the
50Document or a portion of it, either copied verbatim, or with
51modifications and/or translated into another language.
52
53A "Secondary Section" is a named appendix or a front-matter section of
54the Document that deals exclusively with the relationship of the
55publishers or authors of the Document to the Document's overall
56subject (or to related matters) and contains nothing that could fall
57directly within that overall subject. (Thus, if the Document is in
58part a textbook of mathematics, a Secondary Section may not explain
59any mathematics.) The relationship could be a matter of historical
60connection with the subject or with related matters, or of legal,
61commercial, philosophical, ethical or political position regarding
62them.
63
64The "Invariant Sections" are certain Secondary Sections whose titles
65are designated, as being those of Invariant Sections, in the notice
66that says that the Document is released under this License. If a
67section does not fit the above definition of Secondary then it is not
68allowed to be designated as Invariant. The Document may contain zero
69Invariant Sections. If the Document does not identify any Invariant
70Sections then there are none.
71
72The "Cover Texts" are certain short passages of text that are listed,
73as Front-Cover Texts or Back-Cover Texts, in the notice that says that
74the Document is released under this License. A Front-Cover Text may be
75at most 5 words, and a Back-Cover Text may be at most 25 words.
76
77A "Transparent" copy of the Document means a machine-readable copy,
78represented in a format whose specification is available to the
79general public, that is suitable for revising the document
80straightforwardly with generic text editors or (for images composed of
81pixels) generic paint programs or (for drawings) some widely available
82drawing editor, and that is suitable for input to text formatters or
83for automatic translation to a variety of formats suitable for input
84to text formatters. A copy made in an otherwise Transparent file
85format whose markup, or absence of markup, has been arranged to thwart
86or discourage subsequent modification by readers is not Transparent.
87An image format is not Transparent if used for any substantial amount
88of text. A copy that is not "Transparent" is called "Opaque".
89
90Examples of suitable formats for Transparent copies include plain
91ASCII without markup, Texinfo input format, LaTeX input format, SGML
92or XML using a publicly available DTD, and standard-conforming simple
93HTML, PostScript or PDF designed for human modification. Examples of
94transparent image formats include PNG, XCF and JPG. Opaque formats
95include proprietary formats that can be read and edited only by
96proprietary word processors, SGML or XML for which the DTD and/or
97processing tools are not generally available, and the
98machine-generated HTML, PostScript or PDF produced by some word
99processors for output purposes only.
100
101The "Title Page" means, for a printed book, the title page itself,
102plus such following pages as are needed to hold, legibly, the material
103this License requires to appear in the title page. For works in
104formats which do not have any title page as such, "Title Page" means
105the text near the most prominent appearance of the work's title,
106preceding the beginning of the body of the text.
107
108The "publisher" means any person or entity that distributes copies of
109the Document to the public.
110
111A section "Entitled XYZ" means a named subunit of the Document whose
112title either is precisely XYZ or contains XYZ in parentheses following
113text that translates XYZ in another language. (Here XYZ stands for a
114specific section name mentioned below, such as "Acknowledgements",
115"Dedications", "Endorsements", or "History".) To "Preserve the Title"
116of such a section when you modify the Document means that it remains a
117section "Entitled XYZ" according to this definition.
118
119The Document may include Warranty Disclaimers next to the notice which
120states that this License applies to the Document. These Warranty
121Disclaimers are considered to be included by reference in this
122License, but only as regards disclaiming warranties: any other
123implication that these Warranty Disclaimers may have is void and has
124no effect on the meaning of this License.
125
126#### 2. VERBATIM COPYING
127
128You may copy and distribute the Document in any medium, either
129commercially or noncommercially, provided that this License, the
130copyright notices, and the license notice saying this License applies
131to the Document are reproduced in all copies, and that you add no
132other conditions whatsoever to those of this License. You may not use
133technical measures to obstruct or control the reading or further
134copying of the copies you make or distribute. However, you may accept
135compensation in exchange for copies. If you distribute a large enough
136number of copies you must also follow the conditions in section 3.
137
138You may also lend copies, under the same conditions stated above, and
139you may publicly display copies.
140
141#### 3. COPYING IN QUANTITY
142
143If you publish printed copies (or copies in media that commonly have
144printed covers) of the Document, numbering more than 100, and the
145Document's license notice requires Cover Texts, you must enclose the
146copies in covers that carry, clearly and legibly, all these Cover
147Texts: Front-Cover Texts on the front cover, and Back-Cover Texts on
148the back cover. Both covers must also clearly and legibly identify you
149as the publisher of these copies. The front cover must present the
150full title with all words of the title equally prominent and visible.
151You may add other material on the covers in addition. Copying with
152changes limited to the covers, as long as they preserve the title of
153the Document and satisfy these conditions, can be treated as verbatim
154copying in other respects.
155
156If the required texts for either cover are too voluminous to fit
157legibly, you should put the first ones listed (as many as fit
158reasonably) on the actual cover, and continue the rest onto adjacent
159pages.
160
161If you publish or distribute Opaque copies of the Document numbering
162more than 100, you must either include a machine-readable Transparent
163copy along with each Opaque copy, or state in or with each Opaque copy
164a computer-network location from which the general network-using
165public has access to download using public-standard network protocols
166a complete Transparent copy of the Document, free of added material.
167If you use the latter option, you must take reasonably prudent steps,
168when you begin distribution of Opaque copies in quantity, to ensure
169that this Transparent copy will remain thus accessible at the stated
170location until at least one year after the last time you distribute an
171Opaque copy (directly or through your agents or retailers) of that
172edition to the public.
173
174It is requested, but not required, that you contact the authors of the
175Document well before redistributing any large number of copies, to
176give them a chance to provide you with an updated version of the
177Document.
178
179#### 4. MODIFICATIONS
180
181You may copy and distribute a Modified Version of the Document under
182the conditions of sections 2 and 3 above, provided that you release
183the Modified Version under precisely this License, with the Modified
184Version filling the role of the Document, thus licensing distribution
185and modification of the Modified Version to whoever possesses a copy
186of it. In addition, you must do these things in the Modified Version:
187
188- A. Use in the Title Page (and on the covers, if any) a title
189 distinct from that of the Document, and from those of previous
190 versions (which should, if there were any, be listed in the
191 History section of the Document). You may use the same title as a
192 previous version if the original publisher of that version
193 gives permission.
194- B. List on the Title Page, as authors, one or more persons or
195 entities responsible for authorship of the modifications in the
196 Modified Version, together with at least five of the principal
197 authors of the Document (all of its principal authors, if it has
198 fewer than five), unless they release you from this requirement.
199- C. State on the Title page the name of the publisher of the
200 Modified Version, as the publisher.
201- D. Preserve all the copyright notices of the Document.
202- E. Add an appropriate copyright notice for your modifications
203 adjacent to the other copyright notices.
204- F. Include, immediately after the copyright notices, a license
205 notice giving the public permission to use the Modified Version
206 under the terms of this License, in the form shown in the
207 Addendum below.
208- G. Preserve in that license notice the full lists of Invariant
209 Sections and required Cover Texts given in the Document's
210 license notice.
211- H. Include an unaltered copy of this License.
212- I. Preserve the section Entitled "History", Preserve its Title,
213 and add to it an item stating at least the title, year, new
214 authors, and publisher of the Modified Version as given on the
215 Title Page. If there is no section Entitled "History" in the
216 Document, create one stating the title, year, authors, and
217 publisher of the Document as given on its Title Page, then add an
218 item describing the Modified Version as stated in the
219 previous sentence.
220- J. Preserve the network location, if any, given in the Document
221 for public access to a Transparent copy of the Document, and
222 likewise the network locations given in the Document for previous
223 versions it was based on. These may be placed in the "History"
224 section. You may omit a network location for a work that was
225 published at least four years before the Document itself, or if
226 the original publisher of the version it refers to
227 gives permission.
228- K. For any section Entitled "Acknowledgements" or "Dedications",
229 Preserve the Title of the section, and preserve in the section all
230 the substance and tone of each of the contributor acknowledgements
231 and/or dedications given therein.
232- L. Preserve all the Invariant Sections of the Document, unaltered
233 in their text and in their titles. Section numbers or the
234 equivalent are not considered part of the section titles.
235- M. Delete any section Entitled "Endorsements". Such a section may
236 not be included in the Modified Version.
237- N. Do not retitle any existing section to be Entitled
238 "Endorsements" or to conflict in title with any Invariant Section.
239- O. Preserve any Warranty Disclaimers.
240
241If the Modified Version includes new front-matter sections or
242appendices that qualify as Secondary Sections and contain no material
243copied from the Document, you may at your option designate some or all
244of these sections as invariant. To do this, add their titles to the
245list of Invariant Sections in the Modified Version's license notice.
246These titles must be distinct from any other section titles.
247
248You may add a section Entitled "Endorsements", provided it contains
249nothing but endorsements of your Modified Version by various
250parties—for example, statements of peer review or that the text has
251been approved by an organization as the authoritative definition of a
252standard.
253
254You may add a passage of up to five words as a Front-Cover Text, and a
255passage of up to 25 words as a Back-Cover Text, to the end of the list
256of Cover Texts in the Modified Version. Only one passage of
257Front-Cover Text and one of Back-Cover Text may be added by (or
258through arrangements made by) any one entity. If the Document already
259includes a cover text for the same cover, previously added by you or
260by arrangement made by the same entity you are acting on behalf of,
261you may not add another; but you may replace the old one, on explicit
262permission from the previous publisher that added the old one.
263
264The author(s) and publisher(s) of the Document do not by this License
265give permission to use their names for publicity for or to assert or
266imply endorsement of any Modified Version.
267
268#### 5. COMBINING DOCUMENTS
269
270You may combine the Document with other documents released under this
271License, under the terms defined in section 4 above for modified
272versions, provided that you include in the combination all of the
273Invariant Sections of all of the original documents, unmodified, and
274list them all as Invariant Sections of your combined work in its
275license notice, and that you preserve all their Warranty Disclaimers.
276
277The combined work need only contain one copy of this License, and
278multiple identical Invariant Sections may be replaced with a single
279copy. If there are multiple Invariant Sections with the same name but
280different contents, make the title of each such section unique by
281adding at the end of it, in parentheses, the name of the original
282author or publisher of that section if known, or else a unique number.
283Make the same adjustment to the section titles in the list of
284Invariant Sections in the license notice of the combined work.
285
286In the combination, you must combine any sections Entitled "History"
287in the various original documents, forming one section Entitled
288"History"; likewise combine any sections Entitled "Acknowledgements",
289and any sections Entitled "Dedications". You must delete all sections
290Entitled "Endorsements".
291
292#### 6. COLLECTIONS OF DOCUMENTS
293
294You may make a collection consisting of the Document and other
295documents released under this License, and replace the individual
296copies of this License in the various documents with a single copy
297that is included in the collection, provided that you follow the rules
298of this License for verbatim copying of each of the documents in all
299other respects.
300
301You may extract a single document from such a collection, and
302distribute it individually under this License, provided you insert a
303copy of this License into the extracted document, and follow this
304License in all other respects regarding verbatim copying of that
305document.
306
307#### 7. AGGREGATION WITH INDEPENDENT WORKS
308
309A compilation of the Document or its derivatives with other separate
310and independent documents or works, in or on a volume of a storage or
311distribution medium, is called an "aggregate" if the copyright
312resulting from the compilation is not used to limit the legal rights
313of the compilation's users beyond what the individual works permit.
314When the Document is included in an aggregate, this License does not
315apply to the other works in the aggregate which are not themselves
316derivative works of the Document.
317
318If the Cover Text requirement of section 3 is applicable to these
319copies of the Document, then if the Document is less than one half of
320the entire aggregate, the Document's Cover Texts may be placed on
321covers that bracket the Document within the aggregate, or the
322electronic equivalent of covers if the Document is in electronic form.
323Otherwise they must appear on printed covers that bracket the whole
324aggregate.
325
326#### 8. TRANSLATION
327
328Translation is considered a kind of modification, so you may
329distribute translations of the Document under the terms of section 4.
330Replacing Invariant Sections with translations requires special
331permission from their copyright holders, but you may include
332translations of some or all Invariant Sections in addition to the
333original versions of these Invariant Sections. You may include a
334translation of this License, and all the license notices in the
335Document, and any Warranty Disclaimers, provided that you also include
336the original English version of this License and the original versions
337of those notices and disclaimers. In case of a disagreement between
338the translation and the original version of this License or a notice
339or disclaimer, the original version will prevail.
340
341If a section in the Document is Entitled "Acknowledgements",
342"Dedications", or "History", the requirement (section 4) to Preserve
343its Title (section 1) will typically require changing the actual
344title.
345
346#### 9. TERMINATION
347
348You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the Document
349except as expressly provided under this License. Any attempt otherwise
350to copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute it is void, and will
351automatically terminate your rights under this License.
352
353However, if you cease all violation of this License, then your license
354from a particular copyright holder is reinstated (a) provisionally,
355unless and until the copyright holder explicitly and finally
356terminates your license, and (b) permanently, if the copyright holder
357fails to notify you of the violation by some reasonable means prior to
35860 days after the cessation.
359
360Moreover, your license from a particular copyright holder is
361reinstated permanently if the copyright holder notifies you of the
362violation by some reasonable means, this is the first time you have
363received notice of violation of this License (for any work) from that
364copyright holder, and you cure the violation prior to 30 days after
365your receipt of the notice.
366
367Termination of your rights under this section does not terminate the
368licenses of parties who have received copies or rights from you under
369this License. If your rights have been terminated and not permanently
370reinstated, receipt of a copy of some or all of the same material does
371not give you any rights to use it.
372
373#### 10. FUTURE REVISIONS OF THIS LICENSE
374
375The Free Software Foundation may publish new, revised versions of the
376GNU Free Documentation License from time to time. Such new versions
377will be similar in spirit to the present version, but may differ in
378detail to address new problems or concerns. See
379<http://www.gnu.org/copyleft/>.
380
381Each version of the License is given a distinguishing version number.
382If the Document specifies that a particular numbered version of this
383License "or any later version" applies to it, you have the option of
384following the terms and conditions either of that specified version or
385of any later version that has been published (not as a draft) by the
386Free Software Foundation. If the Document does not specify a version
387number of this License, you may choose any version ever published (not
388as a draft) by the Free Software Foundation. If the Document specifies
389that a proxy can decide which future versions of this License can be
390used, that proxy's public statement of acceptance of a version
391permanently authorizes you to choose that version for the Document.
392
393#### 11. RELICENSING
394
395"Massive Multiauthor Collaboration Site" (or "MMC Site") means any
396World Wide Web server that publishes copyrightable works and also
397provides prominent facilities for anybody to edit those works. A
398public wiki that anybody can edit is an example of such a server. A
399"Massive Multiauthor Collaboration" (or "MMC") contained in the site
400means any set of copyrightable works thus published on the MMC site.
401
402"CC-BY-SA" means the Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike 3.0
403license published by Creative Commons Corporation, a not-for-profit
404corporation with a principal place of business in San Francisco,
405California, as well as future copyleft versions of that license
406published by that same organization.
407
408"Incorporate" means to publish or republish a Document, in whole or in
409part, as part of another Document.
410
411An MMC is "eligible for relicensing" if it is licensed under this
412License, and if all works that were first published under this License
413somewhere other than this MMC, and subsequently incorporated in whole
414or in part into the MMC, (1) had no cover texts or invariant sections,
415and (2) were thus incorporated prior to November 1, 2008.
416
417The operator of an MMC Site may republish an MMC contained in the site
418under CC-BY-SA on the same site at any time before August 1, 2009,
419provided the MMC is eligible for relicensing.
420
421### ADDENDUM: How to use this License for your documents
422
423To use this License in a document you have written, include a copy of
424the License in the document and put the following copyright and
425license notices just after the title page:
426
427 Copyright (C) YEAR YOUR NAME.
428
429
430Permission is granted to copy, distribute and/or modify this document
431 under the terms of the GNU Free Documentation License, Version 1.3
432 or any later version published by the Free Software Foundation;
433 with no Invariant Sections, no Front-Cover Texts, and no Back-Cover Texts.
434 A copy of the license is included in the section entitled "GNU
435 Free Documentation License".
436
437If you have Invariant Sections, Front-Cover Texts and Back-Cover
438Texts, replace the "with … Texts." line with this:
439
440 with the Invariant Sections being LIST THEIR TITLES, with the
441 Front-Cover Texts being LIST, and with the Back-Cover Texts being LIST.
442
443If you have Invariant Sections without Cover Texts, or some other
444combination of the three, merge those two alternatives to suit the
445situation.
446
447If your document contains nontrivial examples of program code, we
448recommend releasing these examples in parallel under your choice of
449free software license, such as the GNU General Public License, to
450permit their use in free software.
