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.

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>.

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> |
