     8  Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies
     9  of this license document, but changing it is not allowed.
    10 
    11 0. PREAMBLE
    12 
    13 The purpose of this License is to make a manual, textbook, or other
    14 functional and useful document "free" in the sense of freedom: to
    15 assure everyone the effective freedom to copy and redistribute it,
    16 with or without modifying it, either commercially or noncommercially.
    17 Secondarily, this License preserves for the author and publisher a way
    18 to get credit for their work, while not being considered responsible
    19 for modifications made by others.
    20 
    21 This License is a kind of "copyleft", which means that derivative
    22 works of the document must themselves be free in the same sense.  It
    23 complements the GNU General Public License, which is a copyleft
    24 license designed for free software.
    25 
    26 We have designed this License in order to use it for manuals for free
    27 software, because free software needs free documentation: a free
    28 program should come with manuals providing the same freedoms that the
    29 software does.  But this License is not limited to software manuals;
    30 it can be used for any textual work, regardless of subject matter or
    31 whether it is published as a printed book.  We recommend this License
    32 principally for works whose purpose is instruction or reference.
    33 
    34 
    35 1. APPLICABILITY AND DEFINITIONS
    36 
    37 This License applies to any manual or other work, in any medium, that
    38 contains a notice placed by the copyright holder saying it can be
    39 distributed under the terms of this License.  Such a notice grants a
    40 world-wide, royalty-free license, unlimited in duration, to use that
    41 work under the conditions stated herein.  The "Document", below,
    42 refers to any such manual or work.  Any member of the public is a
    43 licensee, and is addressed as "you".  You accept the license if you
    44 copy, modify or distribute the work in a way requiring permission
    45 under copyright law.
    46 
    47 A "Modified Version" of the Document means any work containing the
    48 Document or a portion of it, either copied verbatim, or with
    49 modifications and/or translated into another language.
    50 
    51 A "Secondary Section" is a named appendix or a front-matter section of
    52 the Document that deals exclusively with the relationship of the
    53 publishers or authors of the Document to the Document's overall
    54 subject (or to related matters) and contains nothing that could fall
    55 directly within that overall subject.  (Thus, if the Document is in
    56 part a textbook of mathematics, a Secondary Section may not explain
    57 any mathematics.)  The relationship could be a matter of historical
    58 connection with the subject or with related matters, or of legal,
    59 commercial, philosophical, ethical or political position regarding
    60 them.
    61 
    62 The "Invariant Sections" are certain Secondary Sections whose titles
    63 are designated, as being those of Invariant Sections, in the notice
    64 that says that the Document is released under this License.  If a
    65 section does not fit the above definition of Secondary then it is not
    66 allowed to be designated as Invariant.  The Document may contain zero
    67 Invariant Sections.  If the Document does not identify any Invariant
    68 Sections then there are none.
    69 
    70 The "Cover Texts" are certain short passages of text that are listed,
    71 as Front-Cover Texts or Back-Cover Texts, in the notice that says that
    72 the Document is released under this License.  A Front-Cover Text may
    73 be at most 5 words, and a Back-Cover Text may be at most 25 words.
    74 
    75 A "Transparent" copy of the Document means a machine-readable copy,
    76 represented in a format whose specification is available to the
    77 general public, that is suitable for revising the document
    78 straightforwardly with generic text editors or (for images composed of
    79 pixels) generic paint programs or (for drawings) some widely available
    80 drawing editor, and that is suitable for input to text formatters or
    81 for automatic translation to a variety of formats suitable for input
    82 to text formatters.  A copy made in an otherwise Transparent file
    83 format whose markup, or absence of markup, has been arranged to thwart
    84 or discourage subsequent modification by readers is not Transparent.
    85 An image format is not Transparent if used for any substantial amount
    86 of text.  A copy that is not "Transparent" is called "Opaque".
    87 
    88 Examples of suitable formats for Transparent copies include plain
    89 ASCII without markup, Texinfo input format, LaTeX input format, SGML
    90 or XML using a publicly available DTD, and standard-conforming simple
    91 HTML, PostScript or PDF designed for human modification.  Examples of
    92 transparent image formats include PNG, XCF and JPG.  Opaque formats
    93 include proprietary formats that can be read and edited only by
    94 proprietary word processors, SGML or XML for which the DTD and/or
    95 processing tools are not generally available, and the
    96 machine-generated HTML, PostScript or PDF produced by some word
    97 processors for output purposes only.
    98 
    99 The "Title Page" means, for a printed book, the title page itself,
   100 plus such following pages as are needed to hold, legibly, the material
   101 this License requires to appear in the title page.  For works in
   102 formats which do not have any title page as such, "Title Page" means
   103 the text near the most prominent appearance of the work's title,
   104 preceding the beginning of the body of the text.
   105 
   106 The "publisher" means any person or entity that distributes copies of
   107 the Document to the public.
   108 
   109 A section "Entitled XYZ" means a named subunit of the Document whose
   110 title either is precisely XYZ or contains XYZ in parentheses following
   111 text that translates XYZ in another language.  (Here XYZ stands for a
   112 specific section name mentioned below, such as "Acknowledgements",
   113 "Dedications", "Endorsements", or "History".)  To "Preserve the Title"
   114 of such a section when you modify the Document means that it remains a
   115 section "Entitled XYZ" according to this definition.
   116 
   117 The Document may include Warranty Disclaimers next to the notice which
   118 states that this License applies to the Document.  These Warranty
   119 Disclaimers are considered to be included by reference in this
   120 License, but only as regards disclaiming warranties: any other
   121 implication that these Warranty Disclaimers may have is void and has
   122 no effect on the meaning of this License.
   123 
   124 2. VERBATIM COPYING
   125 
   126 You may copy and distribute the Document in any medium, either
   127 commercially or noncommercially, provided that this License, the
   128 copyright notices, and the license notice saying this License applies
   129 to the Document are reproduced in all copies, and that you add no
   130 other conditions whatsoever to those of this License.  You may not use
   131 technical measures to obstruct or control the reading or further
   132 copying of the copies you make or distribute.  However, you may accept
   133 compensation in exchange for copies.  If you distribute a large enough
   134 number of copies you must also follow the conditions in section 3.
   135 
   136 You may also lend copies, under the same conditions stated above, and
   137 you may publicly display copies.
   138 
   139 
   140 3. COPYING IN QUANTITY
   141 
   142 If you publish printed copies (or copies in media that commonly have
   143 printed covers) of the Document, numbering more than 100, and the
   144 Document's license notice requires Cover Texts, you must enclose the
   145 copies in covers that carry, clearly and legibly, all these Cover
   146 Texts: Front-Cover Texts on the front cover, and Back-Cover Texts on
   147 the back cover.  Both covers must also clearly and legibly identify
   148 you as the publisher of these copies.  The front cover must present
   149 the full title with all words of the title equally prominent and
   150 visible.  You may add other material on the covers in addition.
   151 Copying with changes limited to the covers, as long as they preserve
   152 the title of the Document and satisfy these conditions, can be treated
   153 as verbatim copying in other respects.
   154 
   155 If the required texts for either cover are too voluminous to fit
   156 legibly, you should put the first ones listed (as many as fit
   157 reasonably) on the actual cover, and continue the rest onto adjacent
   158 pages.
   159 
   160 If you publish or distribute Opaque copies of the Document numbering
   161 more than 100, you must either include a machine-readable Transparent
   162 copy along with each Opaque copy, or state in or with each Opaque copy
   163 a computer-network location from which the general network-using
   164 public has access to download using public-standard network protocols
   165 a complete Transparent copy of the Document, free of added material.
   166 If you use the latter option, you must take reasonably prudent steps,
   167 when you begin distribution of Opaque copies in quantity, to ensure
   168 that this Transparent copy will remain thus accessible at the stated
   169 location until at least one year after the last time you distribute an
   170 Opaque copy (directly or through your agents or retailers) of that
   171 edition to the public.
   172 
   173 It is requested, but not required, that you contact the authors of the
   174 Document well before redistributing any large number of copies, to
   175 give them a chance to provide you with an updated version of the
   176 Document.
   177 
   178 
   179 4. MODIFICATIONS
   180 
   181 You may copy and distribute a Modified Version of the Document under
   182 the conditions of sections 2 and 3 above, provided that you release
   183 the Modified Version under precisely this License, with the Modified
   184 Version filling the role of the Document, thus licensing distribution
   185 and modification of the Modified Version to whoever possesses a copy
   186 of 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 distinct
   189    from that of the Document, and from those of previous versions
   190    (which should, if there were any, be listed in the History section
   191    of the Document).  You may use the same title as a previous version
   192    if the original publisher of that version gives permission.
   193 B. List on the Title Page, as authors, one or more persons or entities
   194    responsible for authorship of the modifications in the Modified
   195    Version, together with at least five of the principal authors of the
   196    Document (all of its principal authors, if it has fewer than five),
   197    unless they release you from this requirement.
   198 C. State on the Title page the name of the publisher of the
   199    Modified Version, as the publisher.
   200 D. Preserve all the copyright notices of the Document.
   201 E. Add an appropriate copyright notice for your modifications
   202    adjacent to the other copyright notices.
   203 F. Include, immediately after the copyright notices, a license notice
   204    giving the public permission to use the Modified Version under the
   205    terms of this License, in the form shown in the Addendum below.
   206 G. Preserve in that license notice the full lists of Invariant Sections
   207    and required Cover Texts given in the Document's license notice.
   208 H. Include an unaltered copy of this License.
   209 I. Preserve the section Entitled "History", Preserve its Title, and add
   210    to it an item stating at least the title, year, new authors, and
   211    publisher of the Modified Version as given on the Title Page.  If
   212    there is no section Entitled "History" in the Document, create one
   213    stating the title, year, authors, and publisher of the Document as
   214    given on its Title Page, then add an item describing the Modified
   215    Version as stated in the previous sentence.
   216 J. Preserve the network location, if any, given in the Document for
   217    public access to a Transparent copy of the Document, and likewise
   218    the network locations given in the Document for previous versions
   219    it was based on.  These may be placed in the "History" section.
   220    You may omit a network location for a work that was published at
   221    least four years before the Document itself, or if the original
   222    publisher of the version it refers to gives permission.
   223 K. For any section Entitled "Acknowledgements" or "Dedications",
   224    Preserve the Title of the section, and preserve in the section all
   225    the substance and tone of each of the contributor acknowledgements
   226    and/or dedications given therein.
   227 L. Preserve all the Invariant Sections of the Document,
   228    unaltered in their text and in their titles.  Section numbers
   229    or the equivalent are not considered part of the section titles.
   230 M. Delete any section Entitled "Endorsements".  Such a section
   231    may not be included in the Modified Version.
   232 N. Do not retitle any existing section to be Entitled "Endorsements"
   233    or to conflict in title with any Invariant Section.
   234 O. Preserve any Warranty Disclaimers.
   235 
   236 If the Modified Version includes new front-matter sections or
   237 appendices that qualify as Secondary Sections and contain no material
   238 copied from the Document, you may at your option designate some or all
   239 of these sections as invariant.  To do this, add their titles to the
   240 list of Invariant Sections in the Modified Version's license notice.
   241 These titles must be distinct from any other section titles.
   242 
   243 You may add a section Entitled "Endorsements", provided it contains
   244 nothing but endorsements of your Modified Version by various
   245 parties--for example, statements of peer review or that the text has
   246 been approved by an organization as the authoritative definition of a
   247 standard.
   248 
   249 You may add a passage of up to five words as a Front-Cover Text, and a
   250 passage of up to 25 words as a Back-Cover Text, to the end of the list
   251 of Cover Texts in the Modified Version.  Only one passage of
   252 Front-Cover Text and one of Back-Cover Text may be added by (or
   253 through arrangements made by) any one entity.  If the Document already
   254 includes a cover text for the same cover, previously added by you or
   255 by arrangement made by the same entity you are acting on behalf of,
   256 you may not add another; but you may replace the old one, on explicit
   257 permission from the previous publisher that added the old one.
   258 
   259 The author(s) and publisher(s) of the Document do not by this License
   260 give permission to use their names for publicity for or to assert or
   261 imply endorsement of any Modified Version.
   262 
   263 
   264 5. COMBINING DOCUMENTS
   265 
   266 You may combine the Document with other documents released under this
   267 License, under the terms defined in section 4 above for modified
   268 versions, provided that you include in the combination all of the
   269 Invariant Sections of all of the original documents, unmodified, and
   270 list them all as Invariant Sections of your combined work in its
   271 license notice, and that you preserve all their Warranty Disclaimers.
   272 
   273 The combined work need only contain one copy of this License, and
   274 multiple identical Invariant Sections may be replaced with a single
   275 copy.  If there are multiple Invariant Sections with the same name but
   276 different contents, make the title of each such section unique by
   277 adding at the end of it, in parentheses, the name of the original
   278 author or publisher of that section if known, or else a unique number.
   279 Make the same adjustment to the section titles in the list of
   280 Invariant Sections in the license notice of the combined work.
   281 
   282 In the combination, you must combine any sections Entitled "History"
   283 in the various original documents, forming one section Entitled
   284 "History"; likewise combine any sections Entitled "Acknowledgements",
   285 and any sections Entitled "Dedications".  You must delete all sections
   286 Entitled "Endorsements".
   287 
   288 
   289 6. COLLECTIONS OF DOCUMENTS
   290 
   291 You may make a collection consisting of the Document and other
   292 documents released under this License, and replace the individual
   293 copies of this License in the various documents with a single copy
   294 that is included in the collection, provided that you follow the rules
   295 of this License for verbatim copying of each of the documents in all
   296 other respects.
   297 
   298 You may extract a single document from such a collection, and
   299 distribute it individually under this License, provided you insert a
   300 copy of this License into the extracted document, and follow this
   301 License in all other respects regarding verbatim copying of that
   302 document.
   303 
   304 
   305 7. AGGREGATION WITH INDEPENDENT WORKS
   306 
   307 A compilation of the Document or its derivatives with other separate
   308 and independent documents or works, in or on a volume of a storage or
   309 distribution medium, is called an "aggregate" if the copyright
   310 resulting from the compilation is not used to limit the legal rights
   311 of the compilation's users beyond what the individual works permit.
   312 When the Document is included in an aggregate, this License does not
   313 apply to the other works in the aggregate which are not themselves
   314 derivative works of the Document.
   315 
   316 If the Cover Text requirement of section 3 is applicable to these
   317 copies of the Document, then if the Document is less than one half of
   318 the entire aggregate, the Document's Cover Texts may be placed on
   319 covers that bracket the Document within the aggregate, or the
   320 electronic equivalent of covers if the Document is in electronic form.
   321 Otherwise they must appear on printed covers that bracket the whole
   322 aggregate.
   323 
   324 
   325 8. TRANSLATION
   326 
   327 Translation is considered a kind of modification, so you may
   328 distribute translations of the Document under the terms of section 4.
   329 Replacing Invariant Sections with translations requires special
   330 permission from their copyright holders, but you may include
   331 translations of some or all Invariant Sections in addition to the
   332 original versions of these Invariant Sections.  You may include a
   333 translation of this License, and all the license notices in the
   334 Document, and any Warranty Disclaimers, provided that you also include
   335 the original English version of this License and the original versions
   336 of those notices and disclaimers.  In case of a disagreement between
   337 the translation and the original version of this License or a notice
   338 or disclaimer, the original version will prevail.
   339 
   340 If a section in the Document is Entitled "Acknowledgements",
   341 "Dedications", or "History", the requirement (section 4) to Preserve
   342 its Title (section 1) will typically require changing the actual
   343 title.
   344 
   345 
   346 9. TERMINATION
   347 
   348 You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the Document
   349 except as expressly provided under this License.  Any attempt
   350 otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute it is void, and
   351 will automatically terminate your rights under this License.
   352 
   353 However, if you cease all violation of this License, then your license
   354 from a particular copyright holder is reinstated (a) provisionally,
   355 unless and until the copyright holder explicitly and finally
   356 terminates your license, and (b) permanently, if the copyright holder
   357 fails to notify you of the violation by some reasonable means prior to
   358 60 days after the cessation.
   359 
   360 Moreover, your license from a particular copyright holder is
   361 reinstated permanently if the copyright holder notifies you of the
   362 violation by some reasonable means, this is the first time you have
   363 received notice of violation of this License (for any work) from that
   364 copyright holder, and you cure the violation prior to 30 days after
   365 your receipt of the notice.
   366 
   367 Termination of your rights under this section does not terminate the
   368 licenses of parties who have received copies or rights from you under
   369 this License.  If your rights have been terminated and not permanently
   370 reinstated, receipt of a copy of some or all of the same material does
   371 not give you any rights to use it.
   372 
   373 
   374 10. FUTURE REVISIONS OF THIS LICENSE
   375 
   376 The Free Software Foundation may publish new, revised versions of the
   377 GNU Free Documentation License from time to time.  Such new versions
   378 will be similar in spirit to the present version, but may differ in
   379 detail to address new problems or concerns.  See
   380 http://www.gnu.org/copyleft/.
   381 
   382 Each version of the License is given a distinguishing version number.
   383 If the Document specifies that a particular numbered version of this
   384 License "or any later version" applies to it, you have the option of
   385 following the terms and conditions either of that specified version or
   386 of any later version that has been published (not as a draft) by the
   387 Free Software Foundation.  If the Document does not specify a version
   388 number of this License, you may choose any version ever published (not
   389 as a draft) by the Free Software Foundation.  If the Document
   390 specifies that a proxy can decide which future versions of this
   391 License can be used, that proxy's public statement of acceptance of a
   392 version permanently authorizes you to choose that version for the
   393 Document.
   394 
   395 11. RELICENSING
   396 
   397 "Massive Multiauthor Collaboration Site" (or "MMC Site") means any
   398 World Wide Web server that publishes copyrightable works and also
   399 provides prominent facilities for anybody to edit those works.  A
   400 public wiki that anybody can edit is an example of such a server.  A
   401 "Massive Multiauthor Collaboration" (or "MMC") contained in the site
   402 means any set of copyrightable works thus published on the MMC site.
   403 
   404 "CC-BY-SA" means the Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike 3.0 
   405 license published by Creative Commons Corporation, a not-for-profit 
   406 corporation with a principal place of business in San Francisco, 
   407 California, as well as future copyleft versions of that license 
   408 published by that same organization.
   409 
   410 "Incorporate" means to publish or republish a Document, in whole or in 
   411 part, as part of another Document.
   412 
   413 An MMC is "eligible for relicensing" if it is licensed under this 
   414 License, and if all works that were first published under this License 
   415 somewhere other than this MMC, and subsequently incorporated in whole or 
   416 in part into the MMC, (1) had no cover texts or invariant sections, and 
   417 (2) were thus incorporated prior to November 1, 2008.
   418 
   419 The operator of an MMC Site may republish an MMC contained in the site
   420 under CC-BY-SA on the same site at any time before August 1, 2009,
   421 provided the MMC is eligible for relicensing.
   422 
   423 
   424 ADDENDUM: How to use this License for your documents
   425 
   426 To use this License in a document you have written, include a copy of
   427 the License in the document and put the following copyright and
   428 license notices just after the title page:
   429

   438 If you have Invariant Sections, Front-Cover Texts and Back-Cover Texts,
   439 replace the "with...Texts." line with this:
   440 
   441     with the Invariant Sections being LIST THEIR TITLES, with the
   442     Front-Cover Texts being LIST, and with the Back-Cover Texts being LIST.
   443 
   444 If you have Invariant Sections without Cover Texts, or some other
   445 combination of the three, merge those two alternatives to suit the
   446 situation.
