  <title>GNU Free Documentation License</title>

    <title>0. 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 id="fdl-section1">
    <title>1. APPLICABILITY AND DEFINITIONS</title>

    <para id="fdl-document">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 id="fdl-modified">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 id="fdl-secondary">A <quote>Secondary Section</quote> is a named appendix or a front-matter section of the
      <link
      linkend="fdl-document">Document</link> that deals exclusively with the
      relationship of the publishers or authors of the Document to the Document&rsquo;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 id="fdl-invariant">The <quote>Invariant Sections</quote> are certain <link
      linkend="fdl-secondary"> Secondary
      Sections</link> whose titles are designated, as being those of Invariant Sections, in the
      notice that says that the <link
      linkend="fdl-document">Document</link> is released under
      this License.
    </para>

    <para id="fdl-cover-texts">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
      <link
      linkend="fdl-document">Document</link> is released under this License.
    </para>

    <para id="fdl-transparent">A <quote>Transparent</quote> copy of the <link
      linkend="fdl-document"> Document</link> 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 id="fdl-title-page">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&rsquo;s title,
      preceding the beginning of the body of the text.
    </para>

  <sect1 id="fdl-section2">
    <title>2. VERBATIM COPYING</title>

    <para>You may copy and distribute the <link
      linkend="fdl-document">Document</link> 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
      <link
      linkend="fdl-section3">section 3</link>.
    </para>

    <para>You may also lend copies, under the same conditions stated above, and you may publicly display
      copies.
    </para>
  </sect1>

  <sect1 id="fdl-section3">
    <title>3. COPYING IN QUANTITY</title>

    <para>If you publish printed copies of the <link
      linkend="fdl-document">Document</link> numbering
      more than 100, and the Document&rsquo;s license notice requires
      <link
      linkend="fdl-cover-texts">Cover Texts</link>, 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 <link linkend="fdl-document">Document</link> 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 <link
      linkend="fdl-transparent">Opaque</link> copies of the
      <link
      linkend="fdl-document">Document</link> numbering more than 100, you must either
      include a machine-readable <link
      linkend="fdl-transparent">Transparent</link> 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
      <link linkend="fdl-document">Document</link> well before redistributing any large number of
      copies, to give them a chance to provide you with an updated version of the Document.

  <sect1 id="fdl-section4">
    <title>4. MODIFICATIONS</title>

    <para>You may copy and distribute a <link

      <link linkend="fdl-section2">2</link> and <link
      linkend="fdl-section3">3</link> 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:

    <title>10. FUTURE REVISIONS OF THIS LICENSE</title>

    <para>The <ulink url="http://www.gnu.org/fsf/fsf.html">Free Software Foundation</ulink> 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
      <ulink
      url="http://www.gnu.org/copyleft">http://www.gnu.org/copyleft/</ulink>.
    </para>

    <para>Each version of the License is given a distinguishing version number. If the
      <link linkend="fdl-document">Document</link> 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>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 <link

    <para>If you have no <link linkend="fdl-invariant">Invariant Sections</link>, write <quote>with no
      Invariant Sections</quote> instead of saying which ones are invariant. If you have no
      <link linkend="fdl-cover-texts">Front-Cover Texts</link>, write <quote>no Front-Cover
      Texts</quote> instead of <quote>Front-Cover Texts being LIST</quote>; likewise for
      <link
      linkend="fdl-cover-texts">Back-Cover Texts</link>.
    </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
      <ulink

      to permit their use in free software.
