+
+ <p><strong>v1.0, 8 June 1999</strong></p>
+
+
+ <h2>I. REQUIREMENTS ON BOTH UNMODIFIED AND MODIFIED VERSIONS</h2>
+
+ <p>The Open Publication works may be reproduced and distributed in
+ whole or in part, in any medium physical or electronic, provided
+ that the terms of this license are adhered to, and that this
+ license or an incorporation of it by reference (with any options
+ elected by the author(s) and/or publisher) is displayed in the
+ reproduction.</p>
+
+ <p>Proper form for an incorporation by reference is as follows:
+ Copyright (c) &lt;year&gt; by &lt;author's name or designee&gt;. This
+ material may be distributed only subject to the terms and
+ conditions set forth in the Open Publication License, vX.Y or
+ later (the latest version is presently available at
+ <url "http://www.opencontent.org/openpub/" />). The reference must be
+ immediately followed with any options elected by the author(s)
+ and/or publisher of the document (see section VI).</p>
+
+ <p>Commercial redistribution of Open Publication-licensed material
+ is permitted.</p>
+
+ <p>Any publication in standard (paper) book form shall require the
+ citation of the original publisher and author. The publisher and
+ author's names shall appear on all outer surfaces of the book. On
+ all outer surfaces of the book the original publisher's name shall
+ be as large as the title of the work and cited as possessive with
+ respect to the title.</p>
+
+
+ <h2>II. COPYRIGHT</h2>
+
+ <p>The copyright to each Open Publication is owned by its
+ author(s) or designee.</p>
+
+
+ <h2>III. SCOPE OF LICENSE</h2>
+
+ <p>The following license terms apply to all Open Publication
+ works, unless otherwise explicitly stated in the document.</p>
+
+ <p>Mere aggregation of Open Publication works or a portion of an
+ Open Publication work with other works or programs on the same
+ media shall not cause this license to apply to those other
+ works. The aggregate work shall contain a notice specifying the
+ inclusion of the Open Publication material and appropriate
+ copyright notice.</p>
+
+ <p><em>SEVERABILITY</em>. If any part of this license is found to
+ be unenforceable in any jurisdiction, the remaining portions of
+ the license remain in force.</p>
+
+ <p><em>NO WARRANTY</em>. Open Publication works are licensed and
+ provided "as is" without warranty of any kind, express or implied,
+ including, but not limited to, the implied warranties of
+ merchantability and fitness for a particular purpose or a warranty
+ of non-infringement.</p>
+
+
+ <h2>IV. REQUIREMENTS ON MODIFIED WORKS</h2>
+
+ <p>All modified versions of documents covered by this license,
+ including translations, anthologies, compilations and partial
+ documents, must meet the following requirements:</p>
+
+ <ul>
+ <li>The modified version must be labeled as such.</li>
+ <li>The person making the modifications must be identified and
+ the modifications dated.</li>
+ <li>Acknowledgement of the original author and publisher if
+ applicable must be retained according to normal academic
+ citation practices.</li>
+ <li>The location of the original unmodified document must be
+ identified.</li>
+ <li>The original author's (or authors') name(s) may not be used
+ to assert or imply endorsement of the resulting document without
+ the original author's (or authors') permission.</li>
+ </ul>
+
+
+ <h2>V. GOOD-PRACTICE RECOMMENDATIONS</h2>
+
+ <p>In addition to the requirements of this license, it is
+ requested from and strongly recommended of redistributors
+ that:</p>
+
+ <ul>
+ <li>If you are distributing Open Publication works on hardcopy or
+ CD-ROM, you provide email notification to the authors of your
+ intent to redistribute at least thirty days before your
+ manuscript or media freeze, to give the authors time to provide
+ updated documents. This notification should describe
+ modifications, if any, made to the document.</li>
+ <li>All substantive modifications (including deletions) be either
+ clearly marked up in the document or else described in an
+ attachment to the document.</li>
+ <li>Finally, while it is not mandatory under this license, it is
+ considered good form to offer a free copy of any hardcopy and
+ CD-ROM expression of an Open Publication-licensed work to its
+ author(s).</li>
+ </ul>
+
+
+ <h2>VI. LICENSE OPTIONS</h2>
+
+ <p>The author(s) and/or publisher of an Open Publication-licensed
+ document may elect certain options by appending language to the
+ reference to or copy of the license. These options are
+ considered part of the license instance and must be included
+ with the license (or its incorporation by reference) in derived
+ works.</p>
+
+ <p>A. To prohibit distribution of substantively modified versions
+ without the explicit permission of the author(s). "Substantive
+ modification" is defined as a change to the semantic content of
+ the document, and excludes mere changes in format or typographical
+ corrections.</p>
+
+ <p>To accomplish this, add the phrase `Distribution of
+ substantively modified versions of this document is prohibited
+ without the explicit permission of the copyright holder.' to the
+ license reference or copy.</p>
+
+ <p>B. To prohibit any publication of this work or derivative works
+ in whole or in part in standard (paper) book form for commercial
+ purposes is prohibited unless prior permission is obtained from
+ the copyright holder.</p>
+
+ <p>To accomplish this, add the phrase 'Distribution of the work or
+ derivative of the work in any standard (paper) book form is
+ prohibited unless prior permission is obtained from the copyright
+ holder.' to the license reference or copy.</p>
