  \ Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies\n of this license document,\
  \ but changing it is not allowed.\n\n0. PREAMBLE\n\nThe purpose of this License is to make\
  \ a manual, textbook, or other\nfunctional and useful document \"free\" in the sense of freedom:\
  \ to\nassure everyone the effective freedom to copy and redistribute it,\nwith or without\
  \ modifying it, either commercially or noncommercially.\nSecondarily, this License preserves\
  \ for the author and publisher a way\nto get credit for their work, while not being considered\
  \ responsible\nfor modifications made by others.\n\nThis License is a kind of \"copyleft\"\
  , which means that derivative\nworks of the document must themselves be free in the same sense.\
  \  It\ncomplements the GNU General Public License, which is a copyleft\nlicense designed for\
  \ free software.\n\nWe have designed this License in order to use it for manuals for free\n\
  software, because free software needs free documentation: a free\nprogram should come with\
  \ manuals providing the same freedoms that the\nsoftware does.  But this License is not limited\
  \ to software manuals;\nit can be used for any textual work, regardless of subject matter\
  \ or\nwhether it is published as a printed book.  We recommend this License\nprincipally for\
  \ works whose purpose is instruction or reference.\n\n\n1. APPLICABILITY AND DEFINITIONS\n\
  \nThis License applies to any manual or other work, in any medium, that\ncontains a notice\
  \ placed by the copyright holder saying it can be\ndistributed under the terms of this License.\
  \  Such a notice grants a\nworld-wide, royalty-free license, unlimited in duration, to use\
  \ that\nwork under the conditions stated herein.  The \"Document\", below,\nrefers to any\
  \ such manual or work.  Any member of the public is a\nlicensee, and is addressed as \"you\"\
  .  You accept the license if you\ncopy, modify or distribute the work in a way requiring permission\n\
  under copyright law.\n\nA \"Modified Version\" of the Document means any work containing the\n\
  Document or a portion of it, either copied verbatim, or with\nmodifications and/or translated\
  \ into another language.\n\nA \"Secondary Section\" is a named appendix or a front-matter\
  \ section of\nthe Document that deals exclusively with the relationship of the\npublishers\
  \ or authors of the Document to the Document's overall\nsubject (or to related matters) and\
  \ contains nothing that could fall\ndirectly within that overall subject.  (Thus, if the Document\
  \ is in\npart a textbook of mathematics, a Secondary Section may not explain\nany mathematics.)\
  \  The relationship could be a matter of historical\nconnection with the subject or with related\
  \ matters, or of legal,\ncommercial, philosophical, ethical or political position regarding\n\
  them.\n\nThe \"Invariant Sections\" are certain Secondary Sections whose titles\nare designated,\
  \ as being those of Invariant Sections, in the notice\nthat says that the Document is released\
  \ under this License.  If a\nsection does not fit the above definition of Secondary then it\
  \ is not\nallowed to be designated as Invariant.  The Document may contain zero\nInvariant\
  \ Sections.  If the Document does not identify any Invariant\nSections then there are none.\n\
  \nThe \"Cover Texts\" are certain short passages of text that are listed,\nas Front-Cover\
  \ Texts or Back-Cover Texts, in the notice that says that\nthe Document is released under\
  \ this License.  A Front-Cover Text may\nbe at most 5 words, and a Back-Cover Text may be\
  \ at most 25 words.\n\nA \"Transparent\" copy of the Document means a machine-readable copy,\n\
  represented in a format whose specification is available to the\ngeneral public, that is suitable\
  \ for revising the document\nstraightforwardly with generic text editors or (for images composed\
  \ of\npixels) generic paint programs or (for drawings) some widely available\ndrawing editor,\
  \ and that is suitable for input to text formatters or\nfor automatic translation to a variety\
  \ of formats suitable for input\nto text formatters.  A copy made in an otherwise Transparent\
  \ file\nformat whose markup, or absence of markup, has been arranged to thwart\nor discourage\
  \ subsequent modification by readers is not Transparent.\nAn image format is not Transparent\
  \ if used for any substantial amount\nof text.  A copy that is not \"Transparent\" is called\
  \ \"Opaque\".\n\nExamples of suitable formats for Transparent copies include plain\nASCII\
  \ without markup, Texinfo input format, LaTeX input format, SGML\nor XML using a publicly\
  \ available DTD, and standard-conforming simple\nHTML, PostScript or PDF designed for human\
  \ modification.  Examples of\ntransparent image formats include PNG, XCF and JPG.  Opaque\
  \ formats\ninclude proprietary formats that can be read and edited only by\nproprietary word\
  \ processors, SGML or XML for which the DTD and/or\nprocessing tools are not generally available,\
  \ and the\nmachine-generated HTML, PostScript or PDF produced by some word\nprocessors for\
  \ output purposes only.\n\nThe \"Title Page\" means, for a printed book, the title page itself,\n\
  plus such following pages as are needed to hold, legibly, the material\nthis License requires\
  \ to appear in the title page.  For works in\nformats which do not have any title page as\
  \ such, \"Title Page\" means\nthe text near the most prominent appearance of the work's title,\n\
  preceding the beginning of the body of the text.\n\nThe \"publisher\" means any person or\
  \ entity that distributes copies of\nthe Document to the public.\n\nA section \"Entitled XYZ\"\
  \ means a named subunit of the Document whose\ntitle either is precisely XYZ or contains XYZ\
  \ in parentheses following\ntext that translates XYZ in another language.  (Here XYZ stands\
  \ for a\nspecific section name mentioned below, such as \"Acknowledgements\",\n\"Dedications\"\
  , \"Endorsements\", or \"History\".)  To \"Preserve the Title\"\nof such a section when you\
  \ modify the Document means that it remains a\nsection \"Entitled XYZ\" according to this\
  \ definition.\n\nThe Document may include Warranty Disclaimers next to the notice which\n\
  states that this License applies to the Document.  These Warranty\nDisclaimers are considered\
  \ to be included by reference in this\nLicense, but only as regards disclaiming warranties:\
  \ any other\nimplication that these Warranty Disclaimers may have is void and has\nno effect\
  \ on the meaning of this License.\n\n2. VERBATIM COPYING\n\nYou may copy and distribute the\
  \ Document in any medium, either\ncommercially or noncommercially, provided that this License,\
  \ the\ncopyright notices, and the license notice saying this License applies\nto the Document\
  \ are reproduced in all copies, and that you add no\nother conditions whatsoever to those\
  \ of this License.  You may not use\ntechnical measures to obstruct or control the reading\
  \ or further\ncopying of the copies you make or distribute.  However, you may accept\ncompensation\
  \ in exchange for copies.  If you distribute a large enough\nnumber of copies you must also\
  \ follow the conditions in section 3.\n\nYou may also lend copies, under the same conditions\
  \ stated above, and\nyou may publicly display copies.\n\n\n3. COPYING IN QUANTITY\n\nIf you\
  \ publish printed copies (or copies in media that commonly have\nprinted covers) of the Document,\
  \ numbering more than 100, and the\nDocument's license notice requires Cover Texts, you must\
  \ enclose the\ncopies in covers that carry, clearly and legibly, all these Cover\nTexts: Front-Cover\
  \ Texts on the front cover, and Back-Cover Texts on\nthe back cover.  Both covers must also\
  \ clearly and legibly identify\nyou as the publisher of these copies.  The front cover must\
  \ present\nthe full title with all words of the title equally prominent and\nvisible.  You\
  \ may add other material on the covers in addition.\nCopying with changes limited to the covers,\
  \ as long as they preserve\nthe title of the Document and satisfy these conditions, can be\
  \ treated\nas verbatim copying in other respects.\n\nIf the required texts for either cover\
  \ are too voluminous to fit\nlegibly, you should put the first ones listed (as many as fit\n\
  reasonably) on the actual cover, and continue the rest onto adjacent\npages.\n\nIf you publish\
  \ or distribute Opaque copies of the Document numbering\nmore than 100, you must either include\
  \ a machine-readable Transparent\ncopy along with each Opaque copy, or state in or with each\
  \ Opaque copy\na computer-network location from which the general network-using\npublic has\
  \ access to download using public-standard network protocols\na complete Transparent copy\
  \ of the Document, free of added material.\nIf you use the latter option, you must take reasonably\
  \ prudent steps,\nwhen you begin distribution of Opaque copies in quantity, to ensure\nthat\
  \ this Transparent copy will remain thus accessible at the stated\nlocation until at least\
  \ one year after the last time you distribute an\nOpaque copy (directly or through your agents\
  \ or retailers) of that\nedition to the public.\n\nIt is requested, but not required, that\
  \ you contact the authors of the\nDocument well before redistributing any large number of\
  \ copies, to\ngive them a chance to provide you with an updated version of the\nDocument.\n\
  \n\n4. MODIFICATIONS\n\nYou may copy and distribute a Modified Version of the Document under\n\
  the conditions of sections 2 and 3 above, provided that you release\nthe Modified Version\
  \ under precisely this License, with the Modified\nVersion filling the role of the Document,\
  \ thus licensing distribution\nand modification of the Modified Version to whoever possesses\
  \ a copy\nof it.  In addition, you must do these things in the Modified Version:\n\nA. Use\
  \ in the Title Page (and on the covers, if any) a title distinct\n   from that of the Document,\
  \ and from those of previous versions\n   (which should, if there were any, be listed in the\
  \ History section\n   of the Document).  You may use the same title as a previous version\n\
  \   if the original publisher of that version gives permission.\nB. List on the Title Page,\
  \ as authors, one or more persons or entities\n   responsible for authorship of the modifications\
  \ in the Modified\n   Version, together with at least five of the principal authors of the\n\
  \   Document (all of its principal authors, if it has fewer than five),\n   unless they release\
  \ you from this requirement.\nC. State on the Title page the name of the publisher of the\n\
  \   Modified Version, as the publisher.\nD. Preserve all the copyright notices of the Document.\n\
  E. Add an appropriate copyright notice for your modifications\n   adjacent to the other copyright\
  \ notices.\nF. Include, immediately after the copyright notices, a license notice\n   giving\
  \ the public permission to use the Modified Version under the\n   terms of this License, in\
  \ the form shown in the Addendum below.\nG. Preserve in that license notice the full lists\
  \ of Invariant Sections\n   and required Cover Texts given in the Document's license notice.\n\
  H. Include an unaltered copy of this License.\nI. Preserve the section Entitled \"History\"\
  , Preserve its Title, and add\n   to it an item stating at least the title, year, new authors,\
  \ and\n   publisher of the Modified Version as given on the Title Page.  If\n   there is no\
  \ section Entitled \"History\" in the Document, create one\n   stating the title, year, authors,\
  \ and publisher of the Document as\n   given on its Title Page, then add an item describing\
  \ the Modified\n   Version as stated in the previous sentence.\nJ. Preserve the network location,\
  \ if any, given in the Document for\n   public access to a Transparent copy of the Document,\
  \ and likewise\n   the network locations given in the Document for previous versions\n   it\
  \ was based on.  These may be placed in the \"History\" section.\n   You may omit a network\
  \ location for a work that was published at\n   least four years before the Document itself,\
  \ or if the original\n   publisher of the version it refers to gives permission.\nK. For any\
  \ section Entitled \"Acknowledgements\" or \"Dedications\",\n   Preserve the Title of the\
  \ section, and preserve in the section all\n   the substance and tone of each of the contributor\
  \ acknowledgements\n   and/or dedications given therein.\nL. Preserve all the Invariant Sections\
  \ of the Document,\n   unaltered in their text and in their titles.  Section numbers\n   or\
  \ the equivalent are not considered part of the section titles.\nM. Delete any section Entitled\
  \ \"Endorsements\".  Such a section\n   may not be included in the Modified Version.\nN. Do\
  \ not retitle any existing section to be Entitled \"Endorsements\"\n   or to conflict in title\
  \ with any Invariant Section.\nO. Preserve any Warranty Disclaimers.\n\nIf the Modified Version\
  \ includes new front-matter sections or\nappendices that qualify as Secondary Sections and\
  \ contain no material\ncopied from the Document, you may at your option designate some or\
  \ all\nof these sections as invariant.  To do this, add their titles to the\nlist of Invariant\
  \ Sections in the Modified Version's license notice.\nThese titles must be distinct from any\
  \ other section titles.\n\nYou may add a section Entitled \"Endorsements\", provided it contains\n\
  nothing but endorsements of your Modified Version by various\nparties--for example, statements\
  \ of peer review or that the text has\nbeen approved by an organization as the authoritative\
  \ definition of a\nstandard.\n\nYou may add a passage of up to five words as a Front-Cover\
  \ Text, and a\npassage of up to 25 words as a Back-Cover Text, to the end of the list\nof\
  \ Cover Texts in the Modified Version.  Only one passage of\nFront-Cover Text and one of Back-Cover\
  \ Text may be added by (or\nthrough arrangements made by) any one entity.  If the Document\
  \ already\nincludes a cover text for the same cover, previously added by you or\nby arrangement\
  \ made by the same entity you are acting on behalf of,\nyou may not add another; but you may\
  \ replace the old one, on explicit\npermission from the previous publisher that added the\
  \ old one.\n\nThe author(s) and publisher(s) of the Document do not by this License\ngive\
  \ permission to use their names for publicity for or to assert or\nimply endorsement of any\
  \ Modified Version.\n\n\n5. COMBINING DOCUMENTS\n\nYou may combine the Document with other\
  \ documents released under this\nLicense, under the terms defined in section 4 above for modified\n\
  versions, provided that you include in the combination all of the\nInvariant Sections of all\
  \ of the original documents, unmodified, and\nlist them all as Invariant Sections of your\
  \ combined work in its\nlicense notice, and that you preserve all their Warranty Disclaimers.\n\
  \nThe combined work need only contain one copy of this License, and\nmultiple identical Invariant\
  \ Sections may be replaced with a single\ncopy.  If there are multiple Invariant Sections\
  \ with the same name but\ndifferent contents, make the title of each such section unique by\n\
  adding at the end of it, in parentheses, the name of the original\nauthor or publisher of\
  \ that section if known, or else a unique number.\nMake the same adjustment to the section\
  \ titles in the list of\nInvariant Sections in the license notice of the combined work.\n\n\
  In the combination, you must combine any sections Entitled \"History\"\nin the various original\
  \ documents, forming one section Entitled\n\"History\"; likewise combine any sections Entitled\
  \ \"Acknowledgements\",\nand any sections Entitled \"Dedications\".  You must delete all sections\n\
  Entitled \"Endorsements\".\n\n\n6. COLLECTIONS OF DOCUMENTS\n\nYou may make a collection consisting\
  \ of the Document and other\ndocuments released under this License, and replace the individual\n\
  copies of this License in the various documents with a single copy\nthat is included in the\
  \ collection, provided that you follow the rules\nof this License for verbatim copying of\
  \ each of the documents in all\nother respects.\n\nYou may extract a single document from\
  \ such a collection, and\ndistribute it individually under this License, provided you insert\
  \ a\ncopy of this License into the extracted document, and follow this\nLicense in all other\
  \ respects regarding verbatim copying of that\ndocument.\n\n\n7. AGGREGATION WITH INDEPENDENT\
  \ WORKS\n\nA compilation of the Document or its derivatives with other separate\nand independent\
  \ documents or works, in or on a volume of a storage or\ndistribution medium, is called an\
  \ \"aggregate\" if the copyright\nresulting from the compilation is not used to limit the\
  \ legal rights\nof the compilation's users beyond what the individual works permit.\nWhen\
  \ the Document is included in an aggregate, this License does not\napply to the other works\
  \ in the aggregate which are not themselves\nderivative works of the Document.\n\nIf the Cover\
  \ Text requirement of section 3 is applicable to these\ncopies of the Document, then if the\
  \ Document is less than one half of\nthe entire aggregate, the Document's Cover Texts may\
  \ be placed on\ncovers that bracket the Document within the aggregate, or the\nelectronic\
  \ equivalent of covers if the Document is in electronic form.\nOtherwise they must appear\
  \ on printed covers that bracket the whole\naggregate.\n\n\n8. TRANSLATION\n\nTranslation\
  \ is considered a kind of modification, so you may\ndistribute translations of the Document\
  \ under the terms of section 4.\nReplacing Invariant Sections with translations requires special\n\
  permission from their copyright holders, but you may include\ntranslations of some or all\
  \ Invariant Sections in addition to the\noriginal versions of these Invariant Sections.  You\
  \ may include a\ntranslation of this License, and all the license notices in the\nDocument,\
  \ and any Warranty Disclaimers, provided that you also include\nthe original English version\
  \ of this License and the original versions\nof those notices and disclaimers.  In case of\
  \ a disagreement between\nthe translation and the original version of this License or a notice\n\
  or disclaimer, the original version will prevail.\n\nIf a section in the Document is Entitled\
  \ \"Acknowledgements\",\n\"Dedications\", or \"History\", the requirement (section 4) to Preserve\n\
  its Title (section 1) will typically require changing the actual\ntitle.\n\n\n9. TERMINATION\n\
  \nYou may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the Document\nexcept as expressly provided\
  \ under this License.  Any attempt\notherwise to copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute it\
  \ is void, and\nwill automatically terminate your rights under this License.\n\nHowever, if\
  \ you cease all violation of this License, then your license\nfrom a particular copyright\
  \ holder is reinstated (a) provisionally,\nunless and until the copyright holder explicitly\
  \ and finally\nterminates your license, and (b) permanently, if the copyright holder\nfails\
  \ to notify you of the violation by some reasonable means prior to\n60 days after the cessation.\n\
  \nMoreover, your license from a particular copyright holder is\nreinstated permanently if\
  \ the copyright holder notifies you of the\nviolation by some reasonable means, this is the\
  \ first time you have\nreceived notice of violation of this License (for any work) from that\n\
  copyright holder, and you cure the violation prior to 30 days after\nyour receipt of the notice.\n\
  \nTermination of your rights under this section does not terminate the\nlicenses of parties\
  \ who have received copies or rights from you under\nthis License.  If your rights have been\
  \ terminated and not permanently\nreinstated, receipt of a copy of some or all of the same\
  \ material does\nnot give you any rights to use it.\n\n\n10. FUTURE REVISIONS OF THIS LICENSE\n\
  \nThe Free Software Foundation may publish new, revised versions of the\nGNU Free Documentation\
  \ License from time to time.  Such new versions\nwill be similar in spirit to the present\
  \ version, but may differ in\ndetail to address new problems or concerns.  See\nhttp://www.gnu.org/copyleft/.\n\
  \nEach version of the License is given a distinguishing version number.\nIf the Document specifies\
  \ that a particular numbered version of this\nLicense \"or any later version\" applies to\
  \ it, you have the option of\nfollowing the terms and conditions either of that specified\
  \ version or\nof any later version that has been published (not as a draft) by the\nFree Software\
  \ Foundation.  If the Document does not specify a version\nnumber of this License, you may\
  \ choose any version ever published (not\nas a draft) by the Free Software Foundation.  If\
  \ the Document\nspecifies that a proxy can decide which future versions of this\nLicense can\
  \ be used, that proxy's public statement of acceptance of a\nversion permanently authorizes\
  \ you to choose that version for the\nDocument.\n\n11. RELICENSING\n\n\"Massive Multiauthor\
  \ Collaboration Site\" (or \"MMC Site\") means any\nWorld Wide Web server that publishes copyrightable\
  \ works and also\nprovides prominent facilities for anybody to edit those works.  A\npublic\
  \ wiki that anybody can edit is an example of such a server.  A\n\"Massive Multiauthor Collaboration\"\
  \ (or \"MMC\") contained in the site\nmeans any set of copyrightable works thus published\
  \ on the MMC site.\n\n\"CC-BY-SA\" means the Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike 3.0\
  \ \nlicense published by Creative Commons Corporation, a not-for-profit \ncorporation with\
  \ a principal place of business in San Francisco, \nCalifornia, as well as future copyleft\
  \ versions of that license \npublished by that same organization.\n\n\"Incorporate\" means\
  \ to publish or republish a Document, in whole or in \npart, as part of another Document.\n\
  \nAn MMC is \"eligible for relicensing\" if it is licensed under this \nLicense, and if all\
  \ works that were first published under this License \nsomewhere other than this MMC, and\
  \ subsequently incorporated in whole or \nin part into the MMC, (1) had no cover texts or\
  \ invariant sections, and \n(2) were thus incorporated prior to November 1, 2008.\n\nThe operator\
  \ of an MMC Site may republish an MMC contained in the site\nunder CC-BY-SA on the same site\
  \ at any time before August 1, 2009,\nprovided the MMC is eligible for relicensing.\n\n\n\
  ADDENDUM: How to use this License for your documents\n\nTo use this License in a document\
  \ you have written, include a copy of\nthe License in the document and put the following copyright\
  \ and\nlicense notices just after the title page:\n\n    Copyright (c)  YEAR  YOUR NAME.\n\
  \    Permission is granted to copy, distribute and/or modify this document\n    under the\
  \ terms of the GNU Free Documentation License, Version 1.3\n    or any later version published\
  \ by the Free Software Foundation;\n    with no Invariant Sections, no Front-Cover Texts,\
  \ and no Back-Cover Texts.\n    A copy of the license is included in the section entitled\
  \ \"GNU\n    Free Documentation License\".\n\nIf you have Invariant Sections, Front-Cover\
  \ Texts and Back-Cover Texts,\nreplace the \"with...Texts.\" line with this:\n\n    with the\
  \ Invariant Sections being LIST THEIR TITLES, with the\n    Front-Cover Texts being LIST,\
  \ and with the Back-Cover Texts being LIST.\n\nIf you have Invariant Sections without Cover\
  \ Texts, or some other\ncombination of the three, merge those two alternatives to suit the\n\
  situation.\n\nIf your document contains nontrivial examples of program code, we\nrecommend\
  \ releasing these examples in parallel under your choice of\nfree software license, such as\
  \ the GNU General Public License,\nto permit their use in free software."
