    1.21 +PREAMBLE
    1.22 +
    1.23 +The purpose of this License is to make a manual, textbook, or other
    1.24 +functional and useful document @dfn{free} in the sense of freedom: to
    1.25 +assure everyone the effective freedom to copy and redistribute it,
    1.26 +with or without modifying it, either commercially or noncommercially.
    1.27 +Secondarily, this License preserves for the author and publisher a way
    1.28 +to get credit for their work, while not being considered responsible
    1.29 +for modifications made by others.
    1.30 +
    1.31 +This License is a kind of ``copyleft'', which means that derivative
    1.32 +works of the document must themselves be free in the same sense.  It
    1.33 +complements the GNU General Public License, which is a copyleft
    1.34 +license designed for free software.
    1.35 +
    1.36 +We have designed this License in order to use it for manuals for free
    1.37 +software, because free software needs free documentation: a free
    1.38 +program should come with manuals providing the same freedoms that the
    1.39 +software does.  But this License is not limited to software manuals;
    1.40 +it can be used for any textual work, regardless of subject matter or
    1.41 +whether it is published as a printed book.  We recommend this License
    1.42 +principally for works whose purpose is instruction or reference.
    1.43 +
    1.44 +@item
    1.45 +APPLICABILITY AND DEFINITIONS
    1.46 +
    1.47 +This License applies to any manual or other work, in any medium, that
    1.48 +contains a notice placed by the copyright holder saying it can be
    1.49 +distributed under the terms of this License.  Such a notice grants a
    1.50 +world-wide, royalty-free license, unlimited in duration, to use that
    1.51 +work under the conditions stated herein.  The ``Document'', below,
    1.52 +refers to any such manual or work.  Any member of the public is a
    1.53 +licensee, and is addressed as ``you''.  You accept the license if you
    1.54 +copy, modify or distribute the work in a way requiring permission
    1.55 +under copyright law.
    1.56 +
    1.57 +A ``Modified Version'' of the Document means any work containing the
    1.58 +Document or a portion of it, either copied verbatim, or with
    1.59 +modifications and/or translated into another language.
    1.60 +
    1.61 +A ``Secondary Section'' is a named appendix or a front-matter section
    1.62 +of the Document that deals exclusively with the relationship of the
    1.63 +publishers or authors of the Document to the Document's overall
    1.64 +subject (or to related matters) and contains nothing that could fall
    1.65 +directly within that overall subject.  (Thus, if the Document is in
    1.66 +part a textbook of mathematics, a Secondary Section may not explain
    1.67 +any mathematics.)  The relationship could be a matter of historical
    1.68 +connection with the subject or with related matters, or of legal,
    1.69 +commercial, philosophical, ethical or political position regarding
    1.70 +them.
    1.71 +
    1.72 +The ``Invariant Sections'' are certain Secondary Sections whose titles
    1.73 +are designated, as being those of Invariant Sections, in the notice
    1.74 +that says that the Document is released under this License.  If a
    1.75 +section does not fit the above definition of Secondary then it is not
    1.76 +allowed to be designated as Invariant.  The Document may contain zero
    1.77 +Invariant Sections.  If the Document does not identify any Invariant
    1.78 +Sections then there are none.
    1.79 +
    1.80 +The ``Cover Texts'' are certain short passages of text that are listed,
    1.81 +as Front-Cover Texts or Back-Cover Texts, in the notice that says that
    1.82 +the Document is released under this License.  A Front-Cover Text may
    1.83 +be at most 5 words, and a Back-Cover Text may be at most 25 words.
    1.84 +
    1.85 +A ``Transparent'' copy of the Document means a machine-readable copy,
    1.86 +represented in a format whose specification is available to the
    1.87 +general public, that is suitable for revising the document
    1.88 +straightforwardly with generic text editors or (for images composed of
    1.89 +pixels) generic paint programs or (for drawings) some widely available
    1.90 +drawing editor, and that is suitable for input to text formatters or
    1.91 +for automatic translation to a variety of formats suitable for input
    1.92 +to text formatters.  A copy made in an otherwise Transparent file
    1.93 +format whose markup, or absence of markup, has been arranged to thwart
    1.94 +or discourage subsequent modification by readers is not Transparent.
    1.95 +An image format is not Transparent if used for any substantial amount
    1.96 +of text.  A copy that is not ``Transparent'' is called ``Opaque''.
    1.97 +
    1.98 +Examples of suitable formats for Transparent copies include plain
    1.99 +@sc{ascii} without markup, Texinfo input format, La@TeX{} input
   1.100 +format, @acronym{SGML} or @acronym{XML} using a publicly available
   1.101 +@acronym{DTD}, and standard-conforming simple @acronym{HTML},
   1.102 +PostScript or @acronym{PDF} designed for human modification.  Examples
   1.103 +of transparent image formats include @acronym{PNG}, @acronym{XCF} and
   1.104 +@acronym{JPG}.  Opaque formats include proprietary formats that can be
   1.105 +read and edited only by proprietary word processors, @acronym{SGML} or
   1.106 +@acronym{XML} for which the @acronym{DTD} and/or processing tools are
   1.107 +not generally available, and the machine-generated @acronym{HTML},
   1.108 +PostScript or @acronym{PDF} produced by some word processors for
   1.109 +output purposes only.
   1.110 +
   1.111 +The ``Title Page'' means, for a printed book, the title page itself,
   1.112 +plus such following pages as are needed to hold, legibly, the material
   1.113 +this License requires to appear in the title page.  For works in
   1.114 +formats which do not have any title page as such, ``Title Page'' means
   1.115 +the text near the most prominent appearance of the work's title,
   1.116 +preceding the beginning of the body of the text.
   1.117 +
   1.118 +A section ``Entitled XYZ'' means a named subunit of the Document whose
   1.119 +title either is precisely XYZ or contains XYZ in parentheses following
   1.120 +text that translates XYZ in another language.  (Here XYZ stands for a
   1.121 +specific section name mentioned below, such as ``Acknowledgements'',
   1.122 +``Dedications'', ``Endorsements'', or ``History''.)  To ``Preserve the Title''
   1.123 +of such a section when you modify the Document means that it remains a
   1.124 +section ``Entitled XYZ'' according to this definition.
   1.125 +
   1.126 +The Document may include Warranty Disclaimers next to the notice which
   1.127 +states that this License applies to the Document.  These Warranty
   1.128 +Disclaimers are considered to be included by reference in this
   1.129 +License, but only as regards disclaiming warranties: any other
   1.130 +implication that these Warranty Disclaimers may have is void and has
   1.131 +no effect on the meaning of this License.
   1.132 +
   1.133 +@item
   1.134 +VERBATIM COPYING
   1.135 +
   1.136 +You may copy and distribute the Document in any medium, either
   1.137 +commercially or noncommercially, provided that this License, the
   1.138 +copyright notices, and the license notice saying this License applies
   1.139 +to the Document are reproduced in all copies, and that you add no other
   1.140 +conditions whatsoever to those of this License.  You may not use
   1.141 +technical measures to obstruct or control the reading or further
   1.142 +copying of the copies you make or distribute.  However, you may accept
   1.143 +compensation in exchange for copies.  If you distribute a large enough
   1.144 +number of copies you must also follow the conditions in section 3.
   1.145 +
   1.146 +You may also lend copies, under the same conditions stated above, and
   1.147 +you may publicly display copies.
   1.148 +
   1.149 +@item
   1.150 +COPYING IN QUANTITY
   1.151 +
   1.152 +If you publish printed copies (or copies in media that commonly have
   1.153 +printed covers) of the Document, numbering more than 100, and the
   1.154 +Document's license notice requires Cover Texts, you must enclose the
   1.155 +copies in covers that carry, clearly and legibly, all these Cover
   1.156 +Texts: Front-Cover Texts on the front cover, and Back-Cover Texts on
   1.157 +the back cover.  Both covers must also clearly and legibly identify
   1.158 +you as the publisher of these copies.  The front cover must present
   1.159 +the full title with all words of the title equally prominent and
   1.160 +visible.  You may add other material on the covers in addition.
   1.161 +Copying with changes limited to the covers, as long as they preserve
   1.162 +the title of the Document and satisfy these conditions, can be treated
   1.163 +as verbatim copying in other respects.
   1.164 +
   1.165 +If the required texts for either cover are too voluminous to fit
   1.166 +legibly, you should put the first ones listed (as many as fit
   1.167 +reasonably) on the actual cover, and continue the rest onto adjacent
   1.168 +pages.
   1.169 +
   1.170 +If you publish or distribute Opaque copies of the Document numbering
   1.171 +more than 100, you must either include a machine-readable Transparent
   1.172 +copy along with each Opaque copy, or state in or with each Opaque copy
   1.173 +a computer-network location from which the general network-using
   1.174 +public has access to download using public-standard network protocols
   1.175 +a complete Transparent copy of the Document, free of added material.
   1.176 +If you use the latter option, you must take reasonably prudent steps,
   1.177 +when you begin distribution of Opaque copies in quantity, to ensure
   1.178 +that this Transparent copy will remain thus accessible at the stated
   1.179 +location until at least one year after the last time you distribute an
   1.180 +Opaque copy (directly or through your agents or retailers) of that
   1.181 +edition to the public.
   1.182 +
   1.183 +It is requested, but not required, that you contact the authors of the
   1.184 +Document well before redistributing any large number of copies, to give
   1.185 +them a chance to provide you with an updated version of the Document.
   1.186 +
   1.187 +@item
   1.188 +MODIFICATIONS
   1.189 +
   1.190 +You may copy and distribute a Modified Version of the Document under
   1.191 +the conditions of sections 2 and 3 above, provided that you release
   1.192 +the Modified Version under precisely this License, with the Modified
   1.193 +Version filling the role of the Document, thus licensing distribution
   1.194 +and modification of the Modified Version to whoever possesses a copy
   1.195 +of it.  In addition, you must do these things in the Modified Version:
   1.196 +
   1.197 +@enumerate A
   1.198 +@item
   1.199 +Use in the Title Page (and on the covers, if any) a title distinct
   1.200 +from that of the Document, and from those of previous versions
   1.201 +(which should, if there were any, be listed in the History section
   1.202 +of the Document).  You may use the same title as a previous version
   1.203 +if the original publisher of that version gives permission.
   1.204 +
   1.205 +@item
   1.206 +List on the Title Page, as authors, one or more persons or entities
   1.207 +responsible for authorship of the modifications in the Modified
   1.208 +Version, together with at least five of the principal authors of the
   1.209 +Document (all of its principal authors, if it has fewer than five),
   1.210 +unless they release you from this requirement.
   1.211 +
   1.212 +@item
   1.213 +State on the Title page the name of the publisher of the
   1.214 +Modified Version, as the publisher.
   1.215 +
   1.216 +@item
   1.217 +Preserve all the copyright notices of the Document.
   1.218 +
   1.219 +@item
   1.220 +Add an appropriate copyright notice for your modifications
   1.221 +adjacent to the other copyright notices.
   1.222 +
   1.223 +@item
   1.224 +Include, immediately after the copyright notices, a license notice
   1.225 +giving the public permission to use the Modified Version under the
   1.226 +terms of this License, in the form shown in the Addendum below.
   1.227 +
   1.228 +@item
   1.229 +Preserve in that license notice the full lists of Invariant Sections
   1.230 +and required Cover Texts given in the Document's license notice.
   1.231 +
   1.232 +@item
   1.233 +Include an unaltered copy of this License.
   1.234 +
   1.235 +@item
   1.236 +Preserve the section Entitled ``History'', Preserve its Title, and add
   1.237 +to it an item stating at least the title, year, new authors, and
   1.238 +publisher of the Modified Version as given on the Title Page.  If
   1.239 +there is no section Entitled ``History'' in the Document, create one
   1.240 +stating the title, year, authors, and publisher of the Document as
   1.241 +given on its Title Page, then add an item describing the Modified
   1.242 +Version as stated in the previous sentence.
   1.243 +
   1.244 +@item
   1.245 +Preserve the network location, if any, given in the Document for
   1.246 +public access to a Transparent copy of the Document, and likewise
   1.247 +the network locations given in the Document for previous versions
   1.248 +it was based on.  These may be placed in the ``History'' section.
   1.249 +You may omit a network location for a work that was published at
   1.250 +least four years before the Document itself, or if the original
   1.251 +publisher of the version it refers to gives permission.
   1.252 +
   1.253 +@item
   1.254 +For any section Entitled ``Acknowledgements'' or ``Dedications'', Preserve
   1.255 +the Title of the section, and preserve in the section all the
   1.256 +substance and tone of each of the contributor acknowledgements and/or
   1.257 +dedications given therein.
   1.258 +
   1.259 +@item
   1.260 +Preserve all the Invariant Sections of the Document,
   1.261 +unaltered in their text and in their titles.  Section numbers
   1.262 +or the equivalent are not considered part of the section titles.
   1.263 +
   1.264 +@item
   1.265 +Delete any section Entitled ``Endorsements''.  Such a section
   1.266 +may not be included in the Modified Version.
   1.267 +
   1.268 +@item
   1.269 +Do not retitle any existing section to be Entitled ``Endorsements'' or
   1.270 +to conflict in title with any Invariant Section.
   1.271 +
   1.272 +@item
   1.273 +Preserve any Warranty Disclaimers.
   1.274 +@end enumerate
   1.275 +
   1.276 +If the Modified Version includes new front-matter sections or
   1.277 +appendices that qualify as Secondary Sections and contain no material
   1.278 +copied from the Document, you may at your option designate some or all
   1.279 +of these sections as invariant.  To do this, add their titles to the
   1.280 +list of Invariant Sections in the Modified Version's license notice.
   1.281 +These titles must be distinct from any other section titles.
   1.282 +
   1.283 +You may add a section Entitled ``Endorsements'', provided it contains
   1.284 +nothing but endorsements of your Modified Version by various
   1.285 +parties---for example, statements of peer review or that the text has
   1.286 +been approved by an organization as the authoritative definition of a
   1.287 +standard.
   1.288 +
   1.289 +You may add a passage of up to five words as a Front-Cover Text, and a
   1.290 +passage of up to 25 words as a Back-Cover Text, to the end of the list
   1.291 +of Cover Texts in the Modified Version.  Only one passage of
   1.292 +Front-Cover Text and one of Back-Cover Text may be added by (or
   1.293 +through arrangements made by) any one entity.  If the Document already
   1.294 +includes a cover text for the same cover, previously added by you or
   1.295 +by arrangement made by the same entity you are acting on behalf of,
   1.296 +you may not add another; but you may replace the old one, on explicit
   1.297 +permission from the previous publisher that added the old one.
   1.298 +
   1.299 +The author(s) and publisher(s) of the Document do not by this License
   1.300 +give permission to use their names for publicity for or to assert or
   1.301 +imply endorsement of any Modified Version.
   1.302 +
   1.303 +@item
   1.304 +COMBINING DOCUMENTS
   1.305 +
   1.306 +You may combine the Document with other documents released under this
   1.307 +License, under the terms defined in section 4 above for modified
   1.308 +versions, provided that you include in the combination all of the
   1.309 +Invariant Sections of all of the original documents, unmodified, and
   1.310 +list them all as Invariant Sections of your combined work in its
   1.311 +license notice, and that you preserve all their Warranty Disclaimers.
   1.312 +
   1.313 +The combined work need only contain one copy of this License, and
   1.314 +multiple identical Invariant Sections may be replaced with a single
   1.315 +copy.  If there are multiple Invariant Sections with the same name but
   1.316 +different contents, make the title of each such section unique by
   1.317 +adding at the end of it, in parentheses, the name of the original
   1.318 +author or publisher of that section if known, or else a unique number.
   1.319 +Make the same adjustment to the section titles in the list of
   1.320 +Invariant Sections in the license notice of the combined work.
   1.321 +
   1.322 +In the combination, you must combine any sections Entitled ``History''
   1.323 +in the various original documents, forming one section Entitled
   1.324 +``History''; likewise combine any sections Entitled ``Acknowledgements'',
   1.325 +and any sections Entitled ``Dedications''.  You must delete all
   1.326 +sections Entitled ``Endorsements.''
   1.327 +
   1.328 +@item
   1.329 +COLLECTIONS OF DOCUMENTS
   1.330 +
   1.331 +You may make a collection consisting of the Document and other documents
   1.332 +released under this License, and replace the individual copies of this
   1.333 +License in the various documents with a single copy that is included in
   1.334 +the collection, provided that you follow the rules of this License for
   1.335 +verbatim copying of each of the documents in all other respects.
   1.336 +
   1.337 +You may extract a single document from such a collection, and distribute
   1.338 +it individually under this License, provided you insert a copy of this
   1.339 +License into the extracted document, and follow this License in all
   1.340 +other respects regarding verbatim copying of that document.
   1.341 +
   1.342 +@item
   1.343 +AGGREGATION WITH INDEPENDENT WORKS
   1.344 +
   1.345 +A compilation of the Document or its derivatives with other separate
   1.346 +and independent documents or works, in or on a volume of a storage or
   1.347 +distribution medium, is called an ``aggregate'' if the copyright
   1.348 +resulting from the compilation is not used to limit the legal rights
   1.349 +of the compilation's users beyond what the individual works permit.
   1.350 +When the Document is included in an aggregate, this License does not
   1.351 +apply to the other works in the aggregate which are not themselves
   1.352 +derivative works of the Document.
   1.353 +
   1.354 +If the Cover Text requirement of section 3 is applicable to these
   1.355 +copies of the Document, then if the Document is less than one half of
   1.356 +the entire aggregate, the Document's Cover Texts may be placed on
   1.357 +covers that bracket the Document within the aggregate, or the
   1.358 +electronic equivalent of covers if the Document is in electronic form.
   1.359 +Otherwise they must appear on printed covers that bracket the whole
   1.360 +aggregate.
   1.361 +
   1.362 +@item
   1.363 +TRANSLATION
   1.364 +
   1.365 +Translation is considered a kind of modification, so you may
   1.366 +distribute translations of the Document under the terms of section 4.
   1.367 +Replacing Invariant Sections with translations requires special
   1.368 +permission from their copyright holders, but you may include
   1.369 +translations of some or all Invariant Sections in addition to the
   1.370 +original versions of these Invariant Sections.  You may include a
   1.371 +translation of this License, and all the license notices in the
   1.372 +Document, and any Warranty Disclaimers, provided that you also include
   1.373 +the original English version of this License and the original versions
   1.374 +of those notices and disclaimers.  In case of a disagreement between
   1.375 +the translation and the original version of this License or a notice
   1.376 +or disclaimer, the original version will prevail.
   1.377 +
   1.378 +If a section in the Document is Entitled ``Acknowledgements'',
   1.379 +``Dedications'', or ``History'', the requirement (section 4) to Preserve
   1.380 +its Title (section 1) will typically require changing the actual
   1.381 +title.
   1.382 +
   1.383 +@item
   1.384 +TERMINATION
   1.385 +
   1.386 +You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the Document except
   1.387 +as expressly provided for under this License.  Any other attempt to
   1.388 +copy, modify, sublicense or distribute the Document is void, and will

   1.395 +FUTURE REVISIONS OF THIS LICENSE
   1.396 +
   1.397 +The Free Software Foundation may publish new, revised versions
   1.398 +of the GNU Free Documentation License from time to time.  Such new
   1.399 +versions will be similar in spirit to the present version, but may
   1.400 +differ in detail to address new problems or concerns.  See
   1.401 +@uref{http://www.gnu.org/copyleft/}.
   1.402 +
   1.403 +Each version of the License is given a distinguishing version number.
   1.404 +If the Document specifies that a particular numbered version of this
   1.405 +License ``or any later version'' applies to it, you have the option of
   1.406 +following the terms and conditions either of that specified version or
   1.407 +of any later version that has been published (not as a draft) by the
   1.408 +Free Software Foundation.  If the Document does not specify a version
   1.409 +number of this License, you may choose any version ever published (not
   1.410 +as a draft) by the Free Software Foundation.

   1.415 +
   1.416 +To use this License in a document you have written, include a copy of
   1.417 +the License in the document and put the following copyright and
   1.418 +license notices just after the title page:
   1.419 +
   1.420 +@smallexample
   1.421 +@group
   1.422 +  Copyright (C)  @var{year}  @var{your name}.
   1.423 +  Permission is granted to copy, distribute and/or modify this document
   1.424 +  under the terms of the GNU Free Documentation License, Version 1.2
   1.425 +  or any later version published by the Free Software Foundation;
   1.426 +  with no Invariant Sections, no Front-Cover Texts, and no Back-Cover
   1.427 +  Texts.  A copy of the license is included in the section entitled ``GNU
   1.428 +  Free Documentation License''.
   1.429 +@end group
   1.430 +@end smallexample
   1.431 +
   1.432 +If you have Invariant Sections, Front-Cover Texts and Back-Cover Texts,
   1.433 +replace the ``with...Texts.'' line with this:
   1.434 +
   1.435 +@smallexample
   1.436 +@group
   1.437 +    with the Invariant Sections being @var{list their titles}, with
   1.438 +    the Front-Cover Texts being @var{list}, and with the Back-Cover Texts
   1.439 +    being @var{list}.
   1.440 +@end group
   1.441 +@end smallexample
   1.442 +
   1.443 +If you have Invariant Sections without Cover Texts, or some other
   1.444 +combination of the three, merge those two alternatives to suit the
   1.445 +situation.
   1.446 +
   1.447 +If your document contains nontrivial examples of program code, we
   1.448 +recommend releasing these examples in parallel under your choice of
   1.449 +free software license, such as the GNU General Public License,
   1.450 +to permit their use in free software.
