Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies

of this license document, but changing it is not allowed.

0. PREAMBLE
|
|
17 |
|
|
18 |
The purpose of this License is to make a manual, textbook, or other
|
|
19 |
written document "free" in the sense of freedom: to assure everyone
|
|
20 |
the effective freedom to copy and redistribute it, with or without
|
|
21 |
modifying it, either commercially or noncommercially. Secondarily,
|
|
22 |
this License preserves for the author and publisher a way to get
|
|
23 |
credit for their work, while not being considered responsible for
|
|
24 |
modifications made by others.
|
|
25 |
|
|
26 |
This License is a kind of "copyleft", which means that derivative
|
|
27 |
works of the document must themselves be free in the same sense. It
|
|
28 |
complements the GNU General Public License, which is a copyleft
|
|
29 |
license designed for free software.
|
|
30 |
|
|
31 |
We have designed this License in order to use it for manuals for free
|
|
32 |
software, because free software needs free documentation: a free
|
|
33 |
program should come with manuals providing the same freedoms that the
|
|
34 |
software does. But this License is not limited to software manuals;
|
|
35 |
it can be used for any textual work, regardless of subject matter or
|
|
36 |
whether it is published as a printed book. We recommend this License
|
|
37 |
principally for works whose purpose is instruction or reference.
|
|
38 |
|
|
39 |

1. APPLICABILITY AND DEFINITIONS
|
|
41 |
|
|
42 |
This License applies to any manual or other work that contains a
|
|
43 |
notice placed by the copyright holder saying it can be distributed
|
|
44 |
under the terms of this License. The "Document", below, refers to any
|
|
45 |
such manual or work. Any member of the public is a licensee, and is
|
|
46 |
addressed as "you".
|
|
47 |
|
|
48 |
A "Modified Version" of the Document means any work containing the
|
|
49 |
Document or a portion of it, either copied verbatim, or with
|
|
50 |
modifications and/or translated into another language.
|
|
51 |
|
|
52 |
A "Secondary Section" is a named appendix or a front-matter section of
|
|
53 |
the Document that deals exclusively with the relationship of the
|
|
54 |
publishers or authors of the Document to the Document's overall subject
|
|
55 |
(or to related matters) and contains nothing that could fall directly
|
|
56 |
within that overall subject. (For example, if the Document is in part a
|
|
57 |
textbook of mathematics, a Secondary Section may not explain any
|
|
58 |
mathematics.) The relationship could be a matter of historical
|
|
59 |
connection with the subject or with related matters, or of legal,
|
|
60 |
commercial, philosophical, ethical or political position regarding
|
|
61 |
them.
|
|
62 |
|
|
63 |
The "Invariant Sections" are certain Secondary Sections whose titles
|
|
64 |
are designated, as being those of Invariant Sections, in the notice
|
|
65 |
that says that the Document is released under this License.
|
|
66 |
|
|
67 |
The "Cover Texts" are certain short passages of text that are listed,
|
|
68 |
as Front-Cover Texts or Back-Cover Texts, in the notice that says that
|
|
69 |
the Document is released under this License.
|
12014
|
70 |
|
22476
|
71 |
A "Transparent" copy of the Document means a machine-readable copy,
|
|
72 |
represented in a format whose specification is available to the
|
|
73 |
general public, whose contents can be viewed and edited directly and
|
|
74 |
straightforwardly with generic text editors or (for images composed of
|
|
75 |
pixels) generic paint programs or (for drawings) some widely available
|
|
76 |
drawing editor, and that is suitable for input to text formatters or
|
|
77 |
for automatic translation to a variety of formats suitable for input
|
|
78 |
to text formatters. A copy made in an otherwise Transparent file
|
|
79 |
format whose markup has been designed to thwart or discourage
|
|
80 |
subsequent modification by readers is not Transparent. A copy that is
|
|
81 |
not "Transparent" is called "Opaque".
|
|
82 |
|
|
83 |
Examples of suitable formats for Transparent copies include plain
|
|
84 |
ASCII without markup, Texinfo input format, LaTeX input format, SGML
|
|
85 |
or XML using a publicly available DTD, and standard-conforming simple
|
|
86 |
HTML designed for human modification. Opaque formats include
|
|
87 |
PostScript, PDF, proprietary formats that can be read and edited only
|
|
88 |
by proprietary word processors, SGML or XML for which the DTD and/or
|
|
89 |
processing tools are not generally available, and the
|
|
90 |
machine-generated HTML produced by some word processors for output
|
|
91 |
purposes only.
|
|
92 |
|
|
93 |
The "Title Page" means, for a printed book, the title page itself,
|
|
94 |
plus such following pages as are needed to hold, legibly, the material
|
|
95 |
this License requires to appear in the title page. For works in
|
|
96 |
formats which do not have any title page as such, "Title Page" means
|
|
97 |
the text near the most prominent appearance of the work's title,
|
|
98 |
preceding the beginning of the body of the text.
|
|
99 |
|
|
100 |
|
|
101 |
2. VERBATIM COPYING
|
|
102 |
|
|
103 |
You may copy and distribute the Document in any medium, either
|
|
104 |
commercially or noncommercially, provided that this License, the
|
|
105 |
copyright notices, and the license notice saying this License applies
|
|
106 |
to the Document are reproduced in all copies, and that you add no other
|
|
107 |
conditions whatsoever to those of this License. You may not use
|
|
108 |
technical measures to obstruct or control the reading or further
|
|
109 |
copying of the copies you make or distribute. However, you may accept
|
|
110 |
compensation in exchange for copies. If you distribute a large enough
|
|
111 |
number of copies you must also follow the conditions in section 3.
|
|
112 |
|
|
113 |
You may also lend copies, under the same conditions stated above, and
|
|
114 |
you may publicly display copies.
|
|
115 |
|
|
116 |
|
|
117 |
3. COPYING IN QUANTITY
|
|
118 |
|
|
119 |
If you publish printed copies of the Document numbering more than 100,
|
|
120 |
and the Document's license notice requires Cover Texts, you must enclose
|
|
121 |
the copies in covers that carry, clearly and legibly, all these Cover
|
|
122 |
Texts: Front-Cover Texts on the front cover, and Back-Cover Texts on
|
|
123 |
the back cover. Both covers must also clearly and legibly identify
|
|
124 |
you as the publisher of these copies. The front cover must present
|
|
125 |
the full title with all words of the title equally prominent and
|
|
126 |
visible. You may add other material on the covers in addition.
|
|
127 |
Copying with changes limited to the covers, as long as they preserve
|
|
128 |
the title of the Document and satisfy these conditions, can be treated
|
|
129 |
as verbatim copying in other respects.
|
|
130 |
|
|
131 |
If the required texts for either cover are too voluminous to fit
|
|
132 |
legibly, you should put the first ones listed (as many as fit
|
|
133 |
reasonably) on the actual cover, and continue the rest onto adjacent
|
|
134 |
pages.
|
|
135 |
|
|
136 |
If you publish or distribute Opaque copies of the Document numbering
|
|
137 |
more than 100, you must either include a machine-readable Transparent
|
|
138 |
copy along with each Opaque copy, or state in or with each Opaque copy
|
|
139 |
a publicly-accessible computer-network location containing a complete
|
|
140 |
Transparent copy of the Document, free of added material, which the
|
|
141 |
general network-using public has access to download anonymously at no
|
|
142 |
charge using public-standard network protocols. If you use the latter
|
|
143 |
option, you must take reasonably prudent steps, when you begin
|
|
144 |
distribution of Opaque copies in quantity, to ensure that this
|
|
145 |
Transparent copy will remain thus accessible at the stated location
|
|
146 |
until at least one year after the last time you distribute an Opaque
|
|
147 |
copy (directly or through your agents or retailers) of that edition to
|
|
148 |
the public.
|
|
149 |
|
|
150 |
It is requested, but not required, that you contact the authors of the
|
|
151 |
Document well before redistributing any large number of copies, to give
|
|
152 |
them a chance to provide you with an updated version of the Document.
|
|
153 |
|
|
154 |
|
|
155 |
4. MODIFICATIONS
|
|
156 |
|
|
157 |
You may copy and distribute a Modified Version of the Document under
|
|
158 |
the conditions of sections 2 and 3 above, provided that you release
|
|
159 |
the Modified Version under precisely this License, with the Modified
|
|
160 |
Version filling the role of the Document, thus licensing distribution
|
|
161 |
and modification of the Modified Version to whoever possesses a copy
|
|
162 |
of it. In addition, you must do these things in the Modified Version:
|
12014
|
163 |
|
22476
|
164 |
A. Use in the Title Page (and on the covers, if any) a title distinct
|
|
165 |
from that of the Document, and from those of previous versions
|
|
166 |
(which should, if there were any, be listed in the History section
|
|
167 |
of the Document). You may use the same title as a previous version
|
|
168 |
if the original publisher of that version gives permission.
|
|
169 |
B. List on the Title Page, as authors, one or more persons or entities
|
|
170 |
responsible for authorship of the modifications in the Modified
|
|
171 |
Version, together with at least five of the principal authors of the
|
|
172 |
Document (all of its principal authors, if it has less than five).
|
|
173 |
C. State on the Title page the name of the publisher of the
|
|
174 |
Modified Version, as the publisher.
|
|
175 |
D. Preserve all the copyright notices of the Document.
|
|
176 |
E. Add an appropriate copyright notice for your modifications
|
|
177 |
adjacent to the other copyright notices.
|
|
178 |
F. Include, immediately after the copyright notices, a license notice
|
|
179 |
giving the public permission to use the Modified Version under the
|
|
180 |
terms of this License, in the form shown in the Addendum below.
|
|
181 |
G. Preserve in that license notice the full lists of Invariant Sections
|
|
182 |
and required Cover Texts given in the Document's license notice.
|
|
183 |
H. Include an unaltered copy of this License.
|
|
184 |
I. Preserve the section entitled "History", and its title, and add to
|
|
185 |
it an item stating at least the title, year, new authors, and
|
|
186 |
publisher of the Modified Version as given on the Title Page. If
|
|
187 |
there is no section entitled "History" in the Document, create one
|
|
188 |
stating the title, year, authors, and publisher of the Document as
|
|
189 |
given on its Title Page, then add an item describing the Modified
|
|
190 |
Version as stated in the previous sentence.
|
|
191 |
J. Preserve the network location, if any, given in the Document for
|
|
192 |
public access to a Transparent copy of the Document, and likewise
|
|
193 |
the network locations given in the Document for previous versions
|
|
194 |
it was based on. These may be placed in the "History" section.
|
|
195 |
You may omit a network location for a work that was published at
|
|
196 |
least four years before the Document itself, or if the original
|
|
197 |
publisher of the version it refers to gives permission.
|
|
198 |
K. In any section entitled "Acknowledgements" or "Dedications",
|
|
199 |
preserve the section's title, and preserve in the section all the
|
|
200 |
substance and tone of each of the contributor acknowledgements
|
|
201 |
and/or dedications given therein.
|
|
202 |
L. Preserve all the Invariant Sections of the Document,
|
|
203 |
unaltered in their text and in their titles. Section numbers
|
|
204 |
or the equivalent are not considered part of the section titles.
|
|
205 |
M. Delete any section entitled "Endorsements". Such a section
|
|
206 |
may not be included in the Modified Version.
|
|
207 |
N. Do not retitle any existing section as "Endorsements"
|
|
208 |
or to conflict in title with any Invariant Section.
|
|
209 |
|
|
210 |
If the Modified Version includes new front-matter sections or
|
|
211 |
appendices that qualify as Secondary Sections and contain no material
|
|
212 |
copied from the Document, you may at your option designate some or all
|
|
213 |
of these sections as invariant. To do this, add their titles to the
|
|
214 |
list of Invariant Sections in the Modified Version's license notice.
|
|
215 |
These titles must be distinct from any other section titles.
|
|
216 |
|
|
217 |
You may add a section entitled "Endorsements", provided it contains
|
|
218 |
nothing but endorsements of your Modified Version by various
|
|
219 |
parties--for example, statements of peer review or that the text has
|
|
220 |
been approved by an organization as the authoritative definition of a
|
|
221 |
standard.
|
|
222 |
|
|
223 |
You may add a passage of up to five words as a Front-Cover Text, and a
|
|
224 |
passage of up to 25 words as a Back-Cover Text, to the end of the list
|
|
225 |
of Cover Texts in the Modified Version. Only one passage of
|
|
226 |
Front-Cover Text and one of Back-Cover Text may be added by (or
|
|
227 |
through arrangements made by) any one entity. If the Document already
|
|
228 |
includes a cover text for the same cover, previously added by you or
|
|
229 |
by arrangement made by the same entity you are acting on behalf of,
|
|
230 |
you may not add another; but you may replace the old one, on explicit
|
|
231 |
permission from the previous publisher that added the old one.
|
|
232 |
|
|
233 |
The author(s) and publisher(s) of the Document do not by this License
|
|
234 |
give permission to use their names for publicity for or to assert or
|
|
235 |
imply endorsement of any Modified Version.
|
|
236 |
|
|
237 |
|
|
238 |
5. COMBINING DOCUMENTS
|
|
239 |
|
|
240 |
You may combine the Document with other documents released under this
|
|
241 |
License, under the terms defined in section 4 above for modified
|
|
242 |
versions, provided that you include in the combination all of the
|
|
243 |
Invariant Sections of all of the original documents, unmodified, and
|
|
244 |
list them all as Invariant Sections of your combined work in its
|
|
245 |
license notice.
|
|
246 |
|
|
247 |
The combined work need only contain one copy of this License, and
|
|
248 |
multiple identical Invariant Sections may be replaced with a single
|
|
249 |
copy. If there are multiple Invariant Sections with the same name but
|
|
250 |
different contents, make the title of each such section unique by
|
|
251 |
adding at the end of it, in parentheses, the name of the original
|
|
252 |
author or publisher of that section if known, or else a unique number.
|
|
253 |
Make the same adjustment to the section titles in the list of
|
|
254 |
Invariant Sections in the license notice of the combined work.
|
|
255 |
|
|
256 |
In the combination, you must combine any sections entitled "History"
|
|
257 |
in the various original documents, forming one section entitled
|
|
258 |
"History"; likewise combine any sections entitled "Acknowledgements",
|
|
259 |
and any sections entitled "Dedications". You must delete all sections
|
|
260 |
entitled "Endorsements."
|
|
261 |
|
|
262 |
|
|
263 |
6. COLLECTIONS OF DOCUMENTS
|
|
264 |
|
|
265 |
You may make a collection consisting of the Document and other documents
|
|
266 |
released under this License, and replace the individual copies of this
|
|
267 |
License in the various documents with a single copy that is included in
|
|
268 |
the collection, provided that you follow the rules of this License for
|
|
269 |
verbatim copying of each of the documents in all other respects.
|
|
270 |
|
|
271 |
You may extract a single document from such a collection, and distribute
|
|
272 |
it individually under this License, provided you insert a copy of this
|
|
273 |
License into the extracted document, and follow this License in all
|
|
274 |
other respects regarding verbatim copying of that document.
|
|
275 |
|
|
276 |
|
|
277 |
7. AGGREGATION WITH INDEPENDENT WORKS
|
|
278 |
|
|
279 |
A compilation of the Document or its derivatives with other separate
|
|
280 |
and independent documents or works, in or on a volume of a storage or
|
|
281 |
distribution medium, does not as a whole count as a Modified Version
|
|
282 |
of the Document, provided no compilation copyright is claimed for the
|
|
283 |
compilation. Such a compilation is called an "aggregate", and this
|
|
284 |
License does not apply to the other self-contained works thus compiled
|
|
285 |
with the Document, on account of their being thus compiled, if they
|
|
286 |
are not themselves derivative works of the Document.
|
|
287 |
|
|
288 |
If the Cover Text requirement of section 3 is applicable to these
|
|
289 |
copies of the Document, then if the Document is less than one quarter
|
|
290 |
of the entire aggregate, the Document's Cover Texts may be placed on
|
|
291 |
covers that surround only the Document within the aggregate.
|
|
292 |
Otherwise they must appear on covers around the whole aggregate.
|
|
293 |
|
|
294 |
|
|
295 |
8. TRANSLATION
|
|
296 |
|
|
297 |
Translation is considered a kind of modification, so you may
|
|
298 |
distribute translations of the Document under the terms of section 4.
|
|
299 |
Replacing Invariant Sections with translations requires special
|
|
300 |
permission from their copyright holders, but you may include
|
|
301 |
translations of some or all Invariant Sections in addition to the
|
|
302 |
original versions of these Invariant Sections. You may include a
|
|
303 |
translation of this License provided that you also include the
|
|
304 |
original English version of this License. In case of a disagreement
|
|
305 |
between the translation and the original English version of this
|
|
306 |
License, the original English version will prevail.
|
|
307 |
|
|
308 |
|
|
309 |
9. TERMINATION
|
|
310 |
|
|
311 |
You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the Document except
|
|
312 |
as expressly provided for under this License. Any other attempt to
|
|
313 |
copy, modify, sublicense or distribute the Document is void, and will
|
|
314 |
automatically terminate your rights under this License. However,
|
|
315 |
parties who have received copies, or rights, from you under this
|
|
316 |
License will not have their licenses terminated so long as such
|
|
317 |
parties remain in full compliance.
|
|
318 |
|
|
319 |
|
|
320 |
10. FUTURE REVISIONS OF THIS LICENSE
|
|
321 |
|
|
322 |
The Free Software Foundation may publish new, revised versions
|
|
323 |
of the GNU Free Documentation License from time to time. Such new
|
|
324 |
versions will be similar in spirit to the present version, but may
|
|
325 |
differ in detail to address new problems or concerns. See
|
|
326 |
http://www.gnu.org/copyleft/.
|
|
327 |
|
|
328 |
Each version of the License is given a distinguishing version number.
|
|
329 |
If the Document specifies that a particular numbered version of this
|
|
330 |
License "or any later version" applies to it, you have the option of
|
|
331 |
following the terms and conditions either of that specified version or
|
|
332 |
of any later version that has been published (not as a draft) by the
|
|
333 |
Free Software Foundation. If the Document does not specify a version
|
|
334 |
number of this License, you may choose any version ever published (not
|
|
335 |
as a draft) by the Free Software Foundation.
|
|
336 |
|
|
337 |
|

To use this License in a document you have written, include a copy of
|
|
341 |
the License in the document and put the following copyright and
|
|
342 |
license notices just after the title page:
|
|
343 |

|
344 |

Permission is granted to copy, distribute and/or modify this document

under the terms of the GNU Free Documentation License, Version 1.1

or any later version published by the Free Software Foundation;
|

If you have no Invariant Sections, write "with no Invariant Sections"
|
|
354 |
instead of saying which ones are invariant. If you have no
|
|
355 |
Front-Cover Texts, write "no Front-Cover Texts" instead of
|
|
356 |
"Front-Cover Texts being LIST"; likewise for Back-Cover Texts.
|
|
357 |
|
|
358 |
If your document contains nontrivial examples of program code, we

359 |
recommend releasing these examples in parallel under your choice of
|
|
360 |
free software license, such as the GNU General Public License,
|
|
361 |
to permit their use in free software.
