| + | The intention of this license is to provide a means to release |
| | + | a product in a community without any particular user governing |
| | + | the project. In particular, the license should encourage the |
| | + | liberties taken in wiki systems, provide a means to settle |
| | + | disputes, and allow new users to continue a project where every |
| | + | developer has gone inactive. This license imposes NO |
| | + | restrictions on work that is released under other names than the |
| | + | name of this product. If such restrictions are desired, the work |
| | + | may be licensed under more than one license. |
| | | | |
| | + | Definitions. |
| | + | "This product" refers to all copyrightable work licensed under |
| | + | this license. A "derivative work" is any copyrightable material |
| | + | based on or using this product. "The community of this product" |
| | + | is a body of entities, usually people, which may be defined in |
| | + | an accompanying policy document or section as stated below. |

| + | A separate document or section defining this product's |
| | + | community and policy may accompany this license and is treated |
| | + | as constituent of the referenced product as far as this license |
| | + | is concerned. Such a document or section may only define "the |
| | + | community" and how "the community" may exercise clause 3.2 of |
| | + | this license. In particular, changing such a document does not |
| | + | demand a new release of this license but it does demand a new |
| | + | release of the product. If no such document or clause |
| | + | accompanies the product, then "the community" is the empty set. |

| − | THE WORK (AS DEFINED BELOW) IS PROVIDED UNDER THE TERMS OF THIS CREATIVE COMMONS PUBLIC LICENSE ("CCPL" OR "LICENSE"). THE WORK IS PROTECTED BY COPYRIGHT AND/OR OTHER APPLICABLE LAW. ANY USE OF THE WORK OTHER THAN AS AUTHORIZED UNDER THIS LICENSE OR COPYRIGHT LAW IS PROHIBITED.

| | + | Permission is granted to use this product in any fashion and |
| | + | for any purpose, including commercial, with or without this |
| | + | license, provided the following conditions are met. |
| | + | 1. Derivative works released under more than one license are |
| | + | subject to the restrictions of each such license. |
| | + | 2. Any derivative work advertised under the same name and the |
| | + | same version as this product must constitute a complete |
| | + | unaltered copy of this product without any additions and be |
| | + | accompanied by an unaltered copy of this license. |
| | + | 3. If a derivative work is advertised under the same name as |
| | + | this product but under a different version, then the following |
| | + | additional conditions apply. |
| | + | 3.1. The derivative work must clearly state that they are a |
| | + | derivative of this product and must be licensed under this |
| | + | license or a newer version of this license as approved by the |
| | + | community. |
| | + | 3.2. The community of this product has the right to demand |
| | + | that any derivative work, or any derivative work of a derivative |
| | + | in any number of steps, changes the name of the derivative work |
| | + | to a name other than the name of this product or else be subject |
| | + | to copyright infringement. The owners of the derivative work |
| | + | must in such an event be notified about the decision. The |
| | + | community has no right in choosing the new name. |
| | + | 3.3. Clause 3.2 may be invoked any number of times permitted |
| | + | by the accompanying policy. |

You may not sublicense the Work. You must keep intact all notices that refer to this License and to the disclaimer of warranties with every copy of the Work You Distribute or Publicly Perform.

The credit required by this Section 4(c) may be implemented in any reasonable manner; provided, however, that in the case of a Adaptation or Collection, at a minimum such credit will appear, if a credit for all contributing authors of the Adaptation or Collection appears, then as part of these credits and in a manner at least as prominent as the credits for the other contributing authors. For the avoidance of doubt, You may only use the credit required by this Section for the purpose of attribution in the manner set out above and, by exercising Your rights under this License, You may not implicitly or explicitly assert or imply any connection with, sponsorship or endorsement by the Original Author, Licensor and/or Attribution Parties, as appropriate, of You or Your use of the Work, without the separate, express prior written permission of the Original Author, Licensor and/or Attribution Parties.

These rights and subject matter take effect in the relevant jurisdiction in which the License terms are sought to be enforced according to the corresponding provisions of the implementation of those treaty provisions in the applicable national law. If the standard suite of rights granted under applicable copyright law includes additional rights not granted under this License, such additional rights are deemed to be included in the License; this License is not intended to restrict the license of any rights under applicable law.
