<title>GNU Free Documentation License</title>
<subtitle>Version 1.1, March 2000</subtitle>
<para>
Copyright (C) 2000 Free Software Foundation, Inc. 59 Temple
Place, Suite 330, Boston, MA 02111-1307 USA
Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies of
this license document, but changing it is not allowed.
</para>
<sect1 id="preamble">
<title>Preamble</title>
<para>
The purpose of this License is to make a manual, textbook,
or other written document <quote>free</quote> in the sense of
freedom: to assure everyone the effective freedom to copy and
redistribute it, with or without modifying it, either
commercially or noncommercially.
Secondarily, this License preserves for the author and
publisher a way to get credit for their work, while not being
considered responsible for modifications made by others.
</para>
<para>
This License is a kind of <quote>copyleft</quote>, which means
that derivative works of the document must themselves be free
in the same sense.
It complements the GNU General Public License, which is a
copyleft license designed for free software.
</para>
<para>
We have designed this License in order to use it for manuals
for free software, because free software needs free
documentation: a free program should come with manuals
providing the same freedoms that the software does.
But this License is not limited to software manuals; it can be
used for any textual work, regardless of subject matter or
whether it is published as a printed book.
We recommend this License principally for works whose purpose
is instruction or reference.
</para>
</sect1>
<sect1 id="applicability">
<title>Applicability and Definitions</title>
<para>
This License applies to any manual or other work that contains a
notice placed by the copyright holder saying it can be distributed
under the terms of this License. The
<quote>Document</quote>, below, refers to any such manual or work.
Any member of the public is a licensee, and is addressed as
<quote>you</quote>.
</para>
<para>
A <quote>Modified Version</quote> of the Document means any work
containing the Document or a portion of it, either copied verbatim,
or with modifications and/or translated into another language.
</para>
<para>
A <quote>Secondary Section</quote> is a named appendix or a
front-matter section of the Document that deals exclusively with
the relationship of the publishers or authors of the Document to
the Document's overall subject (or to related matters) and
contains nothing that could fall directly within that overall
subject.
(For example, if the Document is in part a textbook of mathematics,
a Secondary Section may not explain any mathematics.)
The relationship could be a matter of historical connection with
the subject or with related matters, or of legal, commercial,
philosophical, ethical or political position regarding them.
</para>
<para>
The <quote>Invariant Sections</quote> are certain Secondary
Sections whose titles are designated, as being those of Invariant
Sections, in the notice that says that the Document is released
under this License.
</para>
<para>
The <quote>Cover Texts</quote> are certain short passages of
text that are listed, as Front-Cover Texts or Back-Cover Texts, in
the notice that says that the Document is released under this
License.
</para>
<para>
A <quote>Transparent</quote> copy of the Document means a
machine-readable copy, represented in a format whose specification
is available to the general public, whose contents can be viewed
and edited directly and straightforwardly with generic text editors
or (for images composed of pixels) generic paint programs or (for
drawings) some widely available drawing editor, and that is
suitable for input to text formatters or for automatic translation
to a variety of formats suitable for input to text formatters.
A copy made in an otherwise Transparent file format whose markup
has been designed to thwart or discourage subsequent modification
by readers is not Transparent.
A copy that is not <quote>Transparent</quote> is called
<quote>Opaque</quote>.
</para>
<para>
Examples of suitable formats for Transparent copies include
plain ASCII without markup,
Texinfo input format, LaTeX input format, SGML or XML using a
publicly available DTD, and standard-conforming simple HTML
designed for human modification.
Opaque formats include PostScript, PDF, proprietary formats that
can be read and edited only by proprietary word processors, SGML
or XML for which the DTD and/or processing tools are not
generally available, and the machine-generated HTML produced by
some word processors for output purposes only.
</para>
<para>
The <quote>Title Page</quote> means, for a printed book, the
title page itself, plus such following pages as are needed to
hold, legibly, the material this License requires to appear in
the title page.
For works in formats which do not have any title page as such,
<quote>Title Page</quote> means the text near the most prominent
appearance of the work's title, preceding the beginning
of the body of the text.
</para>
</sect1>
<sect1 id="verbatim">
<title>Verbatim Copying</title>
<para>
You may copy and distribute the Document in any medium,
either commercially or noncommercially, provided that this
License, the copyright notices, and the license notice saying
this License applies to the Document are reproduced in all
copies, and that you add no other conditions whatsoever to
those of this License.
You may not use technical measures to obstruct or control the
reading or further copying of the copies you make or distribute.
However, you may accept compensation in exchange for copies.
If you distribute a large enough number of copies you must also
follow the conditions in section 3.
</para>
<para>
You may also lend copies, under the same conditions stated
above, and you may publicly display copies.
</para>
</sect1>
<sect1 id="quantity">
<title>Copying In Quantity</title>
<para>
If you publish printed copies of the Document numbering more
than 100, and the Document's license notice requires Cover
Texts, you must enclose the copies in covers that carry,
clearly and legibly, all these Cover Texts: Front-Cover Texts
on the front cover, and Back-Cover Texts on the back cover.
Both covers must also clearly and legibly identify you as the
publisher of these copies.
The front cover must present the full title with all words of
the title equally prominent and visible.
You may add other material on the covers in addition.
Copying with changes limited to the covers, as long as they
preserve the title of the Document and satisfy these
conditions, can be treated as verbatim copying in other respects.
</para>
<para>
If the required texts for either cover are too voluminous to
fit legibly, you should put the first ones listed (as many as
fit reasonably) on the actual cover, and continue the rest
onto adjacent pages.
</para>
<para>
If you publish or distribute Opaque copies of the Document
numbering more than 100, you must either include a
machine-readable Transparent copy along with each Opaque copy,
or state in or with each Opaque copy a publicly-accessible
computer-network location containing a complete Transparent
copy of the Document, free of added material, which the general
network-using public has access to download anonymously at no
charge using public-standard network protocols.
If you use the latter option, you must take reasonably
prudent steps, when you begin distribution of Opaque copies in
quantity, to ensure that this Transparent copy will remain
thus accessible at the stated location until at least one year
after the last time you distribute an Opaque copy (directly or
through your agents or retailers) of that edition to the
public.
</para>
<para>
It is requested, but not required, that you contact the
authors of the Document well before redistributing any large
number of copies, to give them a chance to provide you with an
updated version of the Document.
</para>
</sect1>
<sect1 id="fdl_modifications">
<title>Modifications</title>
<para>
You may copy and distribute a Modified Version of the Document
under the conditions of sections 2 and 3 above, provided that
you release the Modified Version under precisely this License,
with the Modified Version filling the role of the Document,
thus licensing distribution and modification of the Modified
Version to whoever possesses a copy of it. In addition, you
must do these things in the Modified Version:
</para>
<orderedlist numeration="upperalpha">
<listitem>
<para>
Use in the Title Page (and on the covers, if any) a
title distinct from that of the Document, and from
those of previous versions (which should, if there
were any, be listed in the History section of the
Document).
You may use the same title as a previous version if
the original publisher of that version gives permission.
</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>
List on the Title Page, as authors, one or more
persons or entities responsible for authorship of the
modifications in the Modified Version, together with
at least five of the principal authors of the Document
(all of its principal authors, if it has less than
five).
</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>
State on the Title page the name of the publisher of
the Modified Version, as the publisher.
</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>
Preserve all the copyright notices of the Document.
</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>
Add an appropriate copyright notice for your
modifications adjacent to the other copyright notices.
</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>
Include, immediately after the copyright notices, a
license notice giving the public permission to use the
Modified Version under the terms of this License, in
the form shown in the Addendum below.
</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>
Preserve in that license notice the full lists of
Invariant Sections and required Cover Texts given in
the Document's license notice.
</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>
Include an unaltered copy of this License.
</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>
Preserve the section entitled <quote>History</quote>,
and its title, and add to it an item stating at least
the title, year, new authors, and publisher of the
Modified Version as given on the Title Page.
If there is no section entitled <quote>History</quote>
in the Document, create one stating the title, year,
authors, and publisher of the Document as given on its
Title Page, then add an item describing the Modified
Version as stated in the previous sentence.
</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>
Preserve the network location, if any, given in the
Document for public access to a Transparent copy of
the Document, and likewise the network locations given
in the Document for previous versions it was based on.
These may be placed in the <quote>History</quote>
section. You may omit a network location for a work
that was published at least four years before the
Document itself, or if the original publisher of the
version it refers to gives permission.
</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>
In any section entitled <quote>Acknowledgements</quote>
or <quote>Dedications</quote>, preserve the
section's title, and preserve in the section all
the substance and tone of each of the contributor
acknowledgements and/or dedications given therein.
</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>
Preserve all the Invariant Sections of the Document,
unaltered in their text and in their titles. Section
numbers or the equivalent are not considered part of
the section titles.
</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>
Delete any section entitled <quote>Endorsements</quote>.
Such a section may not be included in the Modified
Version.
</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>
Do not retitle any existing section as
<quote>Endorsements</quote> or to conflict in title
with any Invariant Section.
</para>
</listitem>
</orderedlist>
<para>
If the Modified Version includes new front-matter sections
or appendices that qualify as Secondary Sections and contain
no material copied from the Document, you may at your option
designate some or all of these sections as invariant.
To do this, add their titles to the list of Invariant
Sections in the Modified Version's license notice.
These titles must be distinct from any other section titles.
</para>
<para>
You may add a section entitled <quote>Endorsements</quote>,
provided it contains nothing but endorsements of your Modified
Version by various parties--for example, statements of peer
review or that the text has been approved by an organization
as the authoritative definition of a standard.
</para>
<para>
You may add a passage of up to five words as a Front-Cover
Text, and a passage of up to 25 words as a Back-Cover Text, to
the end of the list of Cover Texts in the Modified Version.
Only one passage of Front-Cover Text and one of Back-Cover
Text may be added by (or through arrangements made `by) any
one entity.
If the Document already includes a cover text for the same
cover, previously added by you or by arrangement made by the
same entity you are acting on behalf of, you may not add
another; but you may replace the old one, on explicit
permission from the previous publisher that added the old one.
</para>
<para>
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 imply endorsement of any Modified Version.
</para>
</sect1>
<sect1 id="fdl_combining">
<title>Combining Documents</title>
<para>
You may combine the Document with other documents released
under this License, under the terms defined in section 4 above
for modified versions, provided that you include in the
combination all of the Invariant Sections of all of the
original documents, unmodified, and list them all as
Invariant Sections of your combined work in its license notice.
</para>
<para>
The combined work need only contain one copy of this
License, and multiple identical Invariant Sections may be
replaced with a single copy.
If there are multiple Invariant Sections with the same name
but different contents, make the title of each such section
unique by adding at the end of it, in parentheses, the name of
the original author or publisher of that section if known, or
else a unique number. Make the same adjustment to the section
titles in the list of Invariant Sections in the license notice
of the combined work.
</para>
<para>
In the combination, you must combine any sections entitled
<quote>History</quote> in the various original documents,
forming one section entitled <quote>History</quote>; likewise
combine any sections entitled <quote>Acknowledgements</quote>,
and any sections entitled <quote>Dedications</quote>.
You must delete all sections entitled
<quote>Endorsements.</quote>
</para>
</sect1>
<sect1 id="fdl_collections">
<title>Collections of Documents</title>
<para>
You may make a collection consisting of the Document and
other documents released under this License, and replace the
individual copies of this License in the various documents
with a single copy that is included in the collection,
provided that you follow the rules of this License for verbatim
copying of each of the documents in all other respects.
</para>
<para>
You may extract a single document from such a collection,
and distribute it individually under this License, provided
you insert a copy of this License into the extracted document,
and follow this License in all other respects regarding
verbatim copying of that document.
</para>
</sect1>
<sect1 id="fdl_aggregation">
<title>Aggregation With Independent Works</title>
<para>
A compilation of the Document or its derivatives with other
separate and independent documents or works, in or on a volume
of a storage or distribution medium, does not as a whole count
as a Modified Version of the Document, provided no compilation
copyright is claimed for the compilation.
Such a compilation is called an <quote>aggregate</quote>,
and this License does not apply to the other self-contained
works thus compiled with the Document, on account of their
being thus compiled, if they are not themselves derivative
works of the Document.
</para>
<para>
If the Cover Text requirement of section 3 is applicable to
these copies of the Document, then if the Document is less
than one quarter of the entire aggregate, the Document's
Cover Texts may be placed on covers that surround only the
Document within the aggregate. Otherwise they must appear on
covers around the whole aggregate.
</para>
</sect1>
<sect1 id="fdl_translation">
<title>Translation</title>
<para>
Translation is considered a kind of modification, so you may
distribute translations of the Document under the terms of
section 4.
Replacing Invariant Sections with translations requires
special permission from their copyright holders, but you may
include translations of some or all Invariant Sections in
addition to the original versions of these Invariant Sections.
You may include a translation of this License provided that
you also include the original English version of this License.
In case of a disagreement between the translation and the
original English version of this License, the original
English version will prevail.
</para>
</sect1>
<sect1 id="fdl_termination">
<title>Termination</title>
<para>
You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the
Document except as expressly provided for under this License.
Any other attempt to copy, modify, sublicense or distribute
the Document is void, and will automatically terminate your
rights under this License. However, parties who have received
copies, or rights, from you under this License will not have
their licenses terminated so long as such parties remain in
full compliance.
</para>
</sect1>
<sect1 id="fdl_future_revisions">
<title>Future Revisions of This License</title>
<para>
The Free Software Foundation may publish new, revised
versions of the GNU Free Documentation License from time
to time.
Such new versions will be similar in spirit to the present
version, but may differ in detail to address new problems
or concerns.
See the
<ulink url="http://www.gnu.org/copyleft/">
<citetitle>
GNU Free Documentation License
</citetitle>.
</ulink>
web site.
</para>
<para>
Each version of the License is given a distinguishing
version number.
If the Document specifies that a particular
numbered version of this License
<quote>or any later version</quote>
applies to it, you have the option of following the terms
and conditions either of that specified version or of any
later version that has been published (not as a draft) by
the Free Software Foundation.
If the Document does not specify a version number of this
License, you may choose any version ever published (not as
a draft) by the Free Software Foundation.
</para>
</sect1>
<sect1 id="fdl_how_to_use">
<title>How to use this License for your documents</title>
<para>
To use this License in a document you have written,
include a copy of the License in the document and put the
following copyright and license notices just after the
title page:
</para>
<para>
Copyright© YEAR YOUR NAME. 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;
with the Invariant Sections being LIST THEIR TITLES, with
the Front-Cover Texts being LIST, and with the Back-Cover
Texts being LIST.
A copy of the license is included in the section entitled
<quote>GNU Free Documentation License</quote>.
</para>
<para>
If you have no Invariant Sections, write <quote>with no
Invariant Sections</quote> instead of saying which ones
are invariant.
If you have no Front-Cover Texts, write
<quote>no Front-Cover Texts</quote> instead of
<quote>Front-Cover Texts being LIST</quote>; likewise for
Back-Cover Texts.
</para>
<para>
If your document contains nontrivial examples of program
code, we recommend releasing these examples in parallel
under your choice of free software license, such as the
GNU General Public License, to permit their use in free
software.
