PREAMBLE
Packit f2bd10
Packit f2bd10
The purpose of this License is to make a manual, textbook, or other
Packit f2bd10
functional and useful document @dfn{free} in the sense of freedom: to
Packit f2bd10
assure everyone the effective freedom to copy and redistribute it,
Packit f2bd10
with or without modifying it, either commercially or noncommercially.
Packit f2bd10
Secondarily, this License preserves for the author and publisher a way
Packit f2bd10
to get credit for their work, while not being considered responsible
Packit f2bd10
for modifications made by others.
Packit f2bd10
Packit f2bd10
This License is a kind of ``copyleft'', which means that derivative
Packit f2bd10
works of the document must themselves be free in the same sense.  It
Packit f2bd10
complements the GNU General Public License, which is a copyleft
Packit f2bd10
license designed for free software.
Packit f2bd10
Packit f2bd10
We have designed this License in order to use it for manuals for free
Packit f2bd10
software, because free software needs free documentation: a free
Packit f2bd10
program should come with manuals providing the same freedoms that the
Packit f2bd10
software does.  But this License is not limited to software manuals;
Packit f2bd10
it can be used for any textual work, regardless of subject matter or
Packit f2bd10
whether it is published as a printed book.  We recommend this License
Packit f2bd10
principally for works whose purpose is instruction or reference.

Packit f2bd10
APPLICABILITY AND DEFINITIONS
Packit f2bd10
Packit f2bd10
This License applies to any manual or other work, in any medium, that
Packit f2bd10
contains a notice placed by the copyright holder saying it can be
Packit f2bd10
distributed under the terms of this License.  Such a notice grants a
Packit f2bd10
world-wide, royalty-free license, unlimited in duration, to use that
Packit f2bd10
work under the conditions stated herein.  The ``Document'', below,
Packit f2bd10
refers to any such manual or work.  Any member of the public is a
Packit f2bd10
licensee, and is addressed as ``you''.  You accept the license if you
Packit f2bd10
copy, modify or distribute the work in a way requiring permission
Packit f2bd10
under copyright law.
Packit f2bd10
Packit f2bd10
A ``Modified Version'' of the Document means any work containing the
Packit f2bd10
Document or a portion of it, either copied verbatim, or with
Packit f2bd10
modifications and/or translated into another language.
Packit f2bd10
Packit f2bd10
A ``Secondary Section'' is a named appendix or a front-matter section
Packit f2bd10
of the Document that deals exclusively with the relationship of the
Packit f2bd10
publishers or authors of the Document to the Document's overall
Packit f2bd10
subject (or to related matters) and contains nothing that could fall
Packit f2bd10
directly within that overall subject.  (Thus, if the Document is in
Packit f2bd10
part a textbook of mathematics, a Secondary Section may not explain
Packit f2bd10
any mathematics.)  The relationship could be a matter of historical
Packit f2bd10
connection with the subject or with related matters, or of legal,
Packit f2bd10
commercial, philosophical, ethical or political position regarding
Packit f2bd10
them.
Packit f2bd10
Packit f2bd10
The ``Invariant Sections'' are certain Secondary Sections whose titles
Packit f2bd10
are designated, as being those of Invariant Sections, in the notice
Packit f2bd10
that says that the Document is released under this License.  If a
Packit f2bd10
section does not fit the above definition of Secondary then it is not
Packit f2bd10
allowed to be designated as Invariant.  The Document may contain zero
Packit f2bd10
Invariant Sections.  If the Document does not identify any Invariant
Packit f2bd10
Sections then there are none.
Packit f2bd10
Packit f2bd10
The ``Cover Texts'' are certain short passages of text that are listed,
Packit f2bd10
as Front-Cover Texts or Back-Cover Texts, in the notice that says that
Packit f2bd10
the Document is released under this License.  A Front-Cover Text may
Packit f2bd10
be at most 5 words, and a Back-Cover Text may be at most 25 words.
Packit f2bd10
Packit f2bd10
A ``Transparent'' copy of the Document means a machine-readable copy,
Packit f2bd10
represented in a format whose specification is available to the
Packit f2bd10
general public, that is suitable for revising the document
Packit f2bd10
straightforwardly with generic text editors or (for images composed of
Packit f2bd10
pixels) generic paint programs or (for drawings) some widely available
Packit f2bd10
drawing editor, and that is suitable for input to text formatters or
Packit f2bd10
for automatic translation to a variety of formats suitable for input
Packit f2bd10
to text formatters.  A copy made in an otherwise Transparent file
Packit f2bd10
format whose markup, or absence of markup, has been arranged to thwart
Packit f2bd10
or discourage subsequent modification by readers is not Transparent.
Packit f2bd10
An image format is not Transparent if used for any substantial amount
Packit f2bd10
of text.  A copy that is not ``Transparent'' is called ``Opaque''.
Packit f2bd10
Packit f2bd10
Examples of suitable formats for Transparent copies include plain
Packit f2bd10
@sc{ascii} without markup, Texinfo input format, La@TeX{} input
Packit f2bd10
format, @acronym{SGML} or @acronym{XML} using a publicly available
Packit f2bd10
@acronym{DTD}, and standard-conforming simple @acronym{HTML},
Packit f2bd10
PostScript or @acronym{PDF} designed for human modification.  Examples
Packit f2bd10
of transparent image formats include @acronym{PNG}, @acronym{XCF} and
Packit f2bd10
@acronym{JPG}.  Opaque formats include proprietary formats that can be
Packit f2bd10
read and edited only by proprietary word processors, @acronym{SGML} or
Packit f2bd10
@acronym{XML} for which the @acronym{DTD} and/or processing tools are
Packit f2bd10
not generally available, and the machine-generated @acronym{HTML},
Packit f2bd10
PostScript or @acronym{PDF} produced by some word processors for
Packit f2bd10
output purposes only.
Packit f2bd10
Packit f2bd10
The ``Title Page'' means, for a printed book, the title page itself,
Packit f2bd10
plus such following pages as are needed to hold, legibly, the material
Packit f2bd10
this License requires to appear in the title page.  For works in
Packit f2bd10
formats which do not have any title page as such, ``Title Page'' means
Packit f2bd10
the text near the most prominent appearance of the work's title,
Packit f2bd10
preceding the beginning of the body of the text.
Packit f2bd10
Packit f2bd10
The ``publisher'' means any person or entity that distributes copies
Packit f2bd10
of the Document to the public.
Packit f2bd10
Packit f2bd10
A section ``Entitled XYZ'' means a named subunit of the Document whose
Packit f2bd10
title either is precisely XYZ or contains XYZ in parentheses following
Packit f2bd10
text that translates XYZ in another language.  (Here XYZ stands for a
Packit f2bd10
specific section name mentioned below, such as ``Acknowledgements'',
Packit f2bd10
``Dedications'', ``Endorsements'', or ``History''.)  To ``Preserve the Title''
Packit f2bd10
of such a section when you modify the Document means that it remains a
Packit f2bd10
section ``Entitled XYZ'' according to this definition.
Packit f2bd10
Packit f2bd10
The Document may include Warranty Disclaimers next to the notice which
Packit f2bd10
states that this License applies to the Document.  These Warranty
Packit f2bd10
Disclaimers are considered to be included by reference in this
Packit f2bd10
License, but only as regards disclaiming warranties: any other
Packit f2bd10
implication that these Warranty Disclaimers may have is void and has
Packit f2bd10
no effect on the meaning of this License.
Packit f2bd10

Packit f2bd10
VERBATIM COPYING
Packit f2bd10
Packit f2bd10
You may copy and distribute the Document in any medium, either
Packit f2bd10
commercially or noncommercially, provided that this License, the
Packit f2bd10
copyright notices, and the license notice saying this License applies
Packit f2bd10
to the Document are reproduced in all copies, and that you add no other
Packit f2bd10
conditions whatsoever to those of this License.  You may not use
Packit f2bd10
technical measures to obstruct or control the reading or further
Packit f2bd10
copying of the copies you make or distribute.  However, you may accept
Packit f2bd10
compensation in exchange for copies.  If you distribute a large enough
Packit f2bd10
number of copies you must also follow the conditions in section 3.
Packit f2bd10
Packit f2bd10
You may also lend copies, under the same conditions stated above, and
Packit f2bd10
you may publicly display copies.
Packit f2bd10

Packit f2bd10
COPYING IN QUANTITY
Packit f2bd10
Packit f2bd10
If you publish printed copies (or copies in media that commonly have
Packit f2bd10
printed covers) of the Document, numbering more than 100, and the
Packit f2bd10
Document's license notice requires Cover Texts, you must enclose the
Packit f2bd10
copies in covers that carry, clearly and legibly, all these Cover
Packit f2bd10
Texts: Front-Cover Texts on the front cover, and Back-Cover Texts on
Packit f2bd10
the back cover.  Both covers must also clearly and legibly identify
Packit f2bd10
you as the publisher of these copies.  The front cover must present
Packit f2bd10
the full title with all words of the title equally prominent and
Packit f2bd10
visible.  You may add other material on the covers in addition.
Packit f2bd10
Copying with changes limited to the covers, as long as they preserve
Packit f2bd10
the title of the Document and satisfy these conditions, can be treated
Packit f2bd10
as verbatim copying in other respects.
Packit f2bd10
Packit f2bd10
If the required texts for either cover are too voluminous to fit
Packit f2bd10
legibly, you should put the first ones listed (as many as fit
Packit f2bd10
reasonably) on the actual cover, and continue the rest onto adjacent
Packit f2bd10
pages.
Packit f2bd10
Packit f2bd10
If you publish or distribute Opaque copies of the Document numbering
Packit f2bd10
more than 100, you must either include a machine-readable Transparent
Packit f2bd10
copy along with each Opaque copy, or state in or with each Opaque copy
Packit f2bd10
a computer-network location from which the general network-using
Packit f2bd10
public has access to download using public-standard network protocols
Packit f2bd10
a complete Transparent copy of the Document, free of added material.
Packit f2bd10
If you use the latter option, you must take reasonably prudent steps,
Packit f2bd10
when you begin distribution of Opaque copies in quantity, to ensure
Packit f2bd10
that this Transparent copy will remain thus accessible at the stated
Packit f2bd10
location until at least one year after the last time you distribute an
Packit f2bd10
Opaque copy (directly or through your agents or retailers) of that
Packit f2bd10
edition to the public.
Packit f2bd10
Packit f2bd10
It is requested, but not required, that you contact the authors of the
Packit f2bd10
Document well before redistributing any large number of copies, to give
Packit f2bd10
them a chance to provide you with an updated version of the Document.

MODIFICATIONS
Packit f2bd10
Packit f2bd10
You may copy and distribute a Modified Version of the Document under
Packit f2bd10
the conditions of sections 2 and 3 above, provided that you release
Packit f2bd10
the Modified Version under precisely this License, with the Modified
Packit f2bd10
Version filling the role of the Document, thus licensing distribution
Packit f2bd10
and modification of the Modified Version to whoever possesses a copy

Packit f2bd10
of the Document).  You may use the same title as a previous version
Packit f2bd10

the network locations given in the Document for previous versions
Packit f2bd10
it was based on.  These may be placed in the ``History'' section.
Packit f2bd10
You may omit a network location for a work that was published at

If the Modified Version includes new front-matter sections or
Packit f2bd10
appendices that qualify as Secondary Sections and contain no material
Packit f2bd10
copied from the Document, you may at your option designate some or all
Packit f2bd10
of these sections as invariant.  To do this, add their titles to the
Packit f2bd10
list of Invariant Sections in the Modified Version's license notice.
Packit f2bd10
These titles must be distinct from any other section titles.
Packit f2bd10
Packit f2bd10
You may add a section Entitled ``Endorsements'', provided it contains
Packit f2bd10
nothing but endorsements of your Modified Version by various
Packit f2bd10
parties---for example, statements of peer review or that the text has
Packit f2bd10
been approved by an organization as the authoritative definition of a
Packit f2bd10
standard.
Packit f2bd10
Packit f2bd10
You may add a passage of up to five words as a Front-Cover Text, and a
Packit f2bd10
passage of up to 25 words as a Back-Cover Text, to the end of the list
Packit f2bd10
of Cover Texts in the Modified Version.  Only one passage of
Packit f2bd10
Front-Cover Text and one of Back-Cover Text may be added by (or
Packit f2bd10
through arrangements made by) any one entity.  If the Document already
Packit f2bd10
includes a cover text for the same cover, previously added by you or
Packit f2bd10
by arrangement made by the same entity you are acting on behalf of,
Packit f2bd10
you may not add another; but you may replace the old one, on explicit
Packit f2bd10
permission from the previous publisher that added the old one.
Packit f2bd10
Packit f2bd10
The author(s) and publisher(s) of the Document do not by this License

give permission to use their names for publicity for or to assert or
Packit f2bd10
imply endorsement of any Modified Version.

COMBINING DOCUMENTS
Packit f2bd10
Packit f2bd10
You may combine the Document with other documents released under this
Packit f2bd10
License, under the terms defined in section 4 above for modified
Packit f2bd10
versions, provided that you include in the combination all of the
Packit f2bd10
Invariant Sections of all of the original documents, unmodified, and
Packit f2bd10
list them all as Invariant Sections of your combined work in its
Packit f2bd10
license notice, and that you preserve all their Warranty Disclaimers.
Packit f2bd10
Packit f2bd10
The combined work need only contain one copy of this License, and
Packit f2bd10
multiple identical Invariant Sections may be replaced with a single
Packit f2bd10
copy.  If there are multiple Invariant Sections with the same name but
Packit f2bd10
different contents, make the title of each such section unique by
Packit f2bd10
adding at the end of it, in parentheses, the name of the original
Packit f2bd10
author or publisher of that section if known, or else a unique number.
Packit f2bd10
Make the same adjustment to the section titles in the list of
Packit f2bd10
Invariant Sections in the license notice of the combined work.
Packit f2bd10
Packit f2bd10
In the combination, you must combine any sections Entitled ``History''
Packit f2bd10
in the various original documents, forming one section Entitled
Packit f2bd10
``History''; likewise combine any sections Entitled ``Acknowledgements'',
Packit f2bd10
and any sections Entitled ``Dedications''.  You must delete all

COLLECTIONS OF DOCUMENTS
Packit f2bd10
Packit f2bd10
You may make a collection consisting of the Document and other documents
Packit f2bd10
released under this License, and replace the individual copies of this
Packit f2bd10
License in the various documents with a single copy that is included in
Packit f2bd10
the collection, provided that you follow the rules of this License for
Packit f2bd10
verbatim copying of each of the documents in all other respects.
Packit f2bd10
Packit f2bd10
You may extract a single document from such a collection, and distribute
Packit f2bd10
it individually under this License, provided you insert a copy of this
Packit f2bd10

Packit f2bd10
other respects regarding verbatim copying of that document.

AGGREGATION WITH INDEPENDENT WORKS
Packit f2bd10
Packit f2bd10
A compilation of the Document or its derivatives with other separate
Packit f2bd10
and independent documents or works, in or on a volume of a storage or
Packit f2bd10
distribution medium, is called an ``aggregate'' if the copyright
Packit f2bd10
resulting from the compilation is not used to limit the legal rights
Packit f2bd10
of the compilation's users beyond what the individual works permit.
Packit f2bd10
When the Document is included in an aggregate, this License does not
Packit f2bd10
apply to the other works in the aggregate which are not themselves
Packit f2bd10
derivative works of the Document.
Packit f2bd10
Packit f2bd10
If the Cover Text requirement of section 3 is applicable to these
Packit f2bd10
copies of the Document, then if the Document is less than one half of
Packit f2bd10
the entire aggregate, the Document's Cover Texts may be placed on
Packit f2bd10
covers that bracket the Document within the aggregate, or the
Packit f2bd10
electronic equivalent of covers if the Document is in electronic form.
Packit f2bd10
Otherwise they must appear on printed covers that bracket the whole
Packit f2bd10
aggregate.

TRANSLATION
Packit f2bd10
Packit f2bd10
Translation is considered a kind of modification, so you may
Packit f2bd10
distribute translations of the Document under the terms of section 4.
Packit f2bd10
Replacing Invariant Sections with translations requires special
Packit f2bd10
permission from their copyright holders, but you may include
Packit f2bd10
translations of some or all Invariant Sections in addition to the
Packit f2bd10
original versions of these Invariant Sections.  You may include a
Packit f2bd10
translation of this License, and all the license notices in the
Packit f2bd10
Document, and any Warranty Disclaimers, provided that you also include
Packit f2bd10
the original English version of this License and the original versions
Packit f2bd10
of those notices and disclaimers.  In case of a disagreement between
Packit f2bd10
the translation and the original version of this License or a notice
Packit f2bd10
or disclaimer, the original version will prevail.
Packit f2bd10
Packit f2bd10
If a section in the Document is Entitled ``Acknowledgements'',
Packit f2bd10
``Dedications'', or ``History'', the requirement (section 4) to Preserve
Packit f2bd10
its Title (section 1) will typically require changing the actual
Packit f2bd10
title.

TERMINATION
Packit f2bd10
Packit f2bd10
You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the Document
Packit f2bd10
except as expressly provided under this License.  Any attempt
Packit f2bd10
otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute it is void, and
Packit f2bd10
will automatically terminate your rights under this License.
Packit f2bd10
Packit f2bd10
However, if you cease all violation of this License, then your license
Packit f2bd10
from a particular copyright holder is reinstated (a) provisionally,
Packit f2bd10
unless and until the copyright holder explicitly and finally
Packit f2bd10
terminates your license, and (b) permanently, if the copyright holder
Packit f2bd10
fails to notify you of the violation by some reasonable means prior to
Packit f2bd10
60 days after the cessation.
Packit f2bd10
Packit f2bd10
Moreover, your license from a particular copyright holder is
Packit f2bd10
reinstated permanently if the copyright holder notifies you of the
Packit f2bd10
violation by some reasonable means, this is the first time you have
Packit f2bd10
received notice of violation of this License (for any work) from that
Packit f2bd10
copyright holder, and you cure the violation prior to 30 days after
Packit f2bd10
your receipt of the notice.
Packit f2bd10
Packit f2bd10
Termination of your rights under this section does not terminate the

FUTURE REVISIONS OF THIS LICENSE
Packit f2bd10
Packit f2bd10
The Free Software Foundation may publish new, revised versions
Packit f2bd10
of the GNU Free Documentation License from time to time.  Such new
Packit f2bd10
versions will be similar in spirit to the present version, but may
Packit f2bd10
differ in detail to address new problems or concerns.  See
Packit f2bd10
@uref{http://www.gnu.org/copyleft/}.
Packit f2bd10
Packit f2bd10
Each version of the License is given a distinguishing version number.
Packit f2bd10
If the Document specifies that a particular numbered version of this
Packit f2bd10
License ``or any later version'' applies to it, you have the option of
Packit f2bd10
following the terms and conditions either of that specified version or
Packit f2bd10
of any later version that has been published (not as a draft) by the
Packit f2bd10
Free Software Foundation.  If the Document does not specify a version
Packit f2bd10
number of this License, you may choose any version ever published (not
Packit f2bd10
as a draft) by the Free Software Foundation.  If the Document
Packit f2bd10
specifies that a proxy can decide which future versions of this
Packit f2bd10
License can be used, that proxy's public statement of acceptance of a
Packit f2bd10
version permanently authorizes you to choose that version for the
Packit f2bd10
Document.

Packit f2bd10
``Massive Multiauthor Collaboration Site'' (or ``MMC Site'') means any
Packit f2bd10
World Wide Web server that publishes copyrightable works and also
Packit f2bd10
provides prominent facilities for anybody to edit those works.  A
Packit f2bd10
public wiki that anybody can edit is an example of such a server.  A
Packit f2bd10
``Massive Multiauthor Collaboration'' (or ``MMC'') contained in the
Packit f2bd10
site means any set of copyrightable works thus published on the MMC
Packit f2bd10
site.
Packit f2bd10
Packit f2bd10
``CC-BY-SA'' means the Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike 3.0
Packit f2bd10
license published by Creative Commons Corporation, a not-for-profit
Packit f2bd10
corporation with a principal place of business in San Francisco,
Packit f2bd10
California, as well as future copyleft versions of that license
Packit f2bd10
published by that same organization.
Packit f2bd10
Packit f2bd10
``Incorporate'' means to publish or republish a Document, in whole or
Packit f2bd10
in part, as part of another Document.
Packit f2bd10
Packit f2bd10
An MMC is ``eligible for relicensing'' if it is licensed under this
Packit f2bd10
License, and if all works that were first published under this License
Packit f2bd10
somewhere other than this MMC, and subsequently incorporated in whole
Packit f2bd10
or in part into the MMC, (1) had no cover texts or invariant sections,
Packit f2bd10
and (2) were thus incorporated prior to November 1, 2008.
Packit f2bd10
Packit f2bd10
The operator of an MMC Site may republish an MMC contained in the site
Packit f2bd10
under CC-BY-SA on the same site at any time before August 1, 2009,
Packit f2bd10
provided the MMC is eligible for relicensing.
