|
|---|
| 11 |
|
|---|
| 12 | The purpose of this License is to make a manual, textbook, or other
|
|---|
| 13 | functional and useful document "free" in the sense of freedom: to
|
|---|
| 14 | assure everyone the effective freedom to copy and redistribute it,
|
|---|
| 15 | with or without modifying it, either commercially or noncommercially.
|
|---|
| 16 | Secondarily, this License preserves for the author and publisher a way
|
|---|
| 17 | to get credit for their work, while not being considered responsible
|
|---|
| 18 | for modifications made by others.
|
|---|
| 19 |
|
|---|
| 20 | This License is a kind of "copyleft", which means that derivative
|
|---|
| 21 | works of the document must themselves be free in the same sense. It
|
|---|
| 22 | complements the GNU General Public License, which is a copyleft
|
|---|
| 23 | license designed for free software.
|
|---|
| 24 |
|
|---|
| 25 | We have designed this License in order to use it for manuals for free
|
|---|
| 26 | software, because free software needs free documentation: a free
|
|---|
| 27 | program should come with manuals providing the same freedoms that the
|
|---|
| 28 | software does. But this License is not limited to software manuals;
|
|---|
| 29 | it can be used for any textual work, regardless of subject matter or
|
|---|
| 30 | whether it is published as a printed book. We recommend this License
|
|---|
| 31 | principally for works whose purpose is instruction or reference.
|

| 34 | 1. APPLICABILITY AND DEFINITIONS
|
|---|
| 35 |
|
|---|
| 36 | This License applies to any manual or other work, in any medium, that
|
|---|
| 37 | contains a notice placed by the copyright holder saying it can be
|
|---|
| 38 | distributed under the terms of this License. Such a notice grants a
|
|---|
| 39 | world-wide, royalty-free license, unlimited in duration, to use that
|
|---|
| 40 | work under the conditions stated herein. The "Document", below,
|
|---|
| 41 | refers to any such manual or work. Any member of the public is a
|
|---|
| 42 | licensee, and is addressed as "you". You accept the license if you
|
|---|
| 43 | copy, modify or distribute the work in a way requiring permission
|
|---|
| 44 | under copyright law.
|
|---|
| 45 |
|
|---|
| 46 | A "Modified Version" of the Document means any work containing the
|
|---|
| 47 | Document or a portion of it, either copied verbatim, or with
|
|---|
| 48 | modifications and/or translated into another language.
|
|---|
| 49 |
|
|---|
| 50 | A "Secondary Section" is a named appendix or a front-matter section of
|
|---|
| 51 | the Document that deals exclusively with the relationship of the
|
|---|
| 52 | publishers or authors of the Document to the Document's overall
|
|---|
| 53 | subject (or to related matters) and contains nothing that could fall
|
|---|
| 54 | directly within that overall subject. (Thus, if the Document is in
|
|---|
| 55 | part a textbook of mathematics, a Secondary Section may not explain
|
|---|
| 56 | any mathematics.) The relationship could be a matter of historical
|
|---|
| 57 | connection with the subject or with related matters, or of legal,
|
|---|
| 58 | commercial, philosophical, ethical or political position regarding
|
|---|
| 59 | them.
|
|---|
| 60 |
|
|---|
| 61 | The "Invariant Sections" are certain Secondary Sections whose titles
|
|---|
| 62 | are designated, as being those of Invariant Sections, in the notice
|
|---|
| 63 | that says that the Document is released under this License. If a
|
|---|
| 64 | section does not fit the above definition of Secondary then it is not
|
|---|
| 65 | allowed to be designated as Invariant. The Document may contain zero
|
|---|
| 66 | Invariant Sections. If the Document does not identify any Invariant
|
|---|
| 67 | Sections then there are none.
|
|---|
| 68 |
|
|---|
| 69 | The "Cover Texts" are certain short passages of text that are listed,
|
|---|
| 70 | as Front-Cover Texts or Back-Cover Texts, in the notice that says that
|
|---|
| 71 | the Document is released under this License. A Front-Cover Text may
|
|---|
| 72 | be at most 5 words, and a Back-Cover Text may be at most 25 words.
|
|---|
| 73 |
|
|---|
| 74 | A "Transparent" copy of the Document means a machine-readable copy,
|
|---|
| 75 | represented in a format whose specification is available to the
|
|---|
| 76 | general public, that is suitable for revising the document
|
|---|
| 77 | straightforwardly with generic text editors or (for images composed of
|
|---|
| 78 | pixels) generic paint programs or (for drawings) some widely available
|
|---|
| 79 | drawing editor, and that is suitable for input to text formatters or
|
|---|
| 80 | for automatic translation to a variety of formats suitable for input
|
|---|
| 81 | to text formatters. A copy made in an otherwise Transparent file
|
|---|
| 82 | format whose markup, or absence of markup, has been arranged to thwart
|
|---|
| 83 | or discourage subsequent modification by readers is not Transparent.
|
|---|
| 84 | An image format is not Transparent if used for any substantial amount
|
|---|
| 85 | of text. A copy that is not "Transparent" is called "Opaque".
|
|---|
| 86 |
|
|---|
| 87 | Examples of suitable formats for Transparent copies include plain
|
|---|
| 88 | ASCII without markup, Texinfo input format, LaTeX input format, SGML
|
|---|
| 89 | or XML using a publicly available DTD, and standard-conforming simple
|
|---|
| 90 | HTML, PostScript or PDF designed for human modification. Examples of
|
|---|
| 91 | transparent image formats include PNG, XCF and JPG. Opaque formats
|
|---|
| 92 | include proprietary formats that can be read and edited only by
|
|---|
| 93 | proprietary word processors, SGML or XML for which the DTD and/or
|
|---|
| 94 | processing tools are not generally available, and the
|
|---|
| 95 | machine-generated HTML, PostScript or PDF produced by some word
|
|---|
| 96 | processors for output purposes only.
|
|---|
| 97 |
|
|---|
| 98 | The "Title Page" means, for a printed book, the title page itself,
|
|---|
| 99 | plus such following pages as are needed to hold, legibly, the material
|
|---|
| 100 | this License requires to appear in the title page. For works in
|
|---|
| 101 | formats which do not have any title page as such, "Title Page" means
|
|---|
| 102 | the text near the most prominent appearance of the work's title,
|
|---|
| 103 | preceding the beginning of the body of the text.
|
|---|
| 104 |
|
|---|
| 105 | The "publisher" means any person or entity that distributes copies of
|
|---|
| 106 | the Document to the public.
|
|---|
| 107 |
|
|---|
| 108 | A section "Entitled XYZ" means a named subunit of the Document whose
|
|---|
| 109 | title either is precisely XYZ or contains XYZ in parentheses following
|
|---|
| 110 | text that translates XYZ in another language. (Here XYZ stands for a
|
|---|
| 111 | specific section name mentioned below, such as "Acknowledgements",
|
|---|
| 112 | "Dedications", "Endorsements", or "History".) To "Preserve the Title"
|
|---|
| 113 | of such a section when you modify the Document means that it remains a
|
|---|
| 114 | section "Entitled XYZ" according to this definition.
|
|---|
| 115 |
|
|---|
| 116 | The Document may include Warranty Disclaimers next to the notice which
|
|---|
| 117 | states that this License applies to the Document. These Warranty
|
|---|
| 118 | Disclaimers are considered to be included by reference in this
|
|---|
| 119 | License, but only as regards disclaiming warranties: any other
|
|---|
| 120 | implication that these Warranty Disclaimers may have is void and has
|
|---|
| 121 | no effect on the meaning of this License.
|
|---|
| 122 |
|
|---|
| 123 | 2. VERBATIM COPYING
|
|---|
| 124 |
|
|---|
| 125 | You may copy and distribute the Document in any medium, either
|
|---|
| 126 | commercially or noncommercially, provided that this License, the
|
|---|
| 127 | copyright notices, and the license notice saying this License applies
|
|---|
| 128 | to the Document are reproduced in all copies, and that you add no
|
|---|
| 129 | other conditions whatsoever to those of this License. You may not use
|
|---|
| 130 | technical measures to obstruct or control the reading or further
|
|---|
| 131 | copying of the copies you make or distribute. However, you may accept
|
|---|
| 132 | compensation in exchange for copies. If you distribute a large enough
|
|---|
| 133 | number of copies you must also follow the conditions in section 3.
|
|---|
| 134 |
|
|---|
| 135 | You may also lend copies, under the same conditions stated above, and
|
|---|
| 136 | you may publicly display copies.
|
|---|
| 137 |
|
|---|
| 138 |
|
|---|
| 139 | 3. COPYING IN QUANTITY
|
|---|
| 140 |
|
|---|
| 141 | If you publish printed copies (or copies in media that commonly have
|
|---|
| 142 | printed covers) of the Document, numbering more than 100, and the
|
|---|
| 143 | Document's license notice requires Cover Texts, you must enclose the
|
|---|
| 144 | copies in covers that carry, clearly and legibly, all these Cover
|
|---|
| 145 | Texts: Front-Cover Texts on the front cover, and Back-Cover Texts on
|
|---|
| 146 | the back cover. Both covers must also clearly and legibly identify
|
|---|
| 147 | you as the publisher of these copies. The front cover must present
|
|---|
| 148 | the full title with all words of the title equally prominent and
|
|---|
| 149 | visible. You may add other material on the covers in addition.
|
|---|
| 150 | Copying with changes limited to the covers, as long as they preserve
|
|---|
| 151 | the title of the Document and satisfy these conditions, can be treated
|
|---|
| 152 | as verbatim copying in other respects.
|
|---|
| 153 |
|
|---|
| 154 | If the required texts for either cover are too voluminous to fit
|
|---|
| 155 | legibly, you should put the first ones listed (as many as fit
|
|---|
| 156 | reasonably) on the actual cover, and continue the rest onto adjacent
|
|---|
| 157 | pages.
|
|---|
| 158 |
|
|---|
| 159 | If you publish or distribute Opaque copies of the Document numbering
|
|---|
| 160 | more than 100, you must either include a machine-readable Transparent
|
|---|
|
|---|
