PREAMBLE - - The purpose of this License is to make a manual, textbook, or other - functional and useful document free in the sense of freedom: to assure - everyone the effective freedom to copy and redistribute it, with or without - modifying it, either commercially or noncommercially. Secondarily, this - License preserves for the author and publisher a way to get credit for - their work, while not being considered responsible for modifications made - by others. - - This License is a kind of "copyleft", which means that derivative works of - the document must themselves be free in the same sense. It complements the - GNU General Public License, which is a copyleft license designed for free - software. - - We have designed this License in order to use it for manuals for free - software, because free software needs free documentation: a free program - should come with manuals providing the same freedoms that the software - does. But this License is not limited to software manuals; it can be used - for any textual work, regardless of subject matter or whether it is - published as a printed book. We recommend this License principally for - works whose purpose is instruction or reference. - - 2. APPLICABILITY AND DEFINITIONS - - This License applies to any manual or other work, in any medium, that - contains a notice placed by the copyright holder saying it can be - distributed under the terms of this License. Such a notice grants a - world-wide, royalty-free license, unlimited in duration, to use that work - under the conditions stated herein. The "Document", below, refers to any - such manual or work. Any member of the public is a licensee, and is - addressed as "you". You accept the license if you copy, modify or - distribute the work in a way requiring permission under copyright law. - - A "Modified Version" of the Document means any work containing the Document - or a portion of it, either copied verbatim, or with modifications and/or - translated into another language. - - A "Secondary Section" is a named appendix or a front-matter section of the - Document that deals exclusively with the relationship of the publishers or - authors of the Document to the Document's overall subject (or to related - matters) and contains nothing that could fall directly within that overall - subject. (Thus, if the Document is in part a textbook of mathematics, a - Secondary Section may not explain any mathematics.) The relationship could - be a matter of historical connection with the subject or with related - matters, or of legal, commercial, philosophical, ethical or political - position regarding them. - - The "Invariant Sections" are certain Secondary Sections whose titles are - designated, as being those of Invariant Sections, in the notice that says - that the Document is released under this License. If a section does not fit - the above definition of Secondary then it is not allowed to be designated - as Invariant. The Document may contain zero Invariant Sections. If the - Document does not identify any Invariant Sections then there are none. - - The "Cover Texts" are certain short passages of text that are listed, as - Front-Cover Texts or Back-Cover Texts, in the notice that says that the - Document is released under this License. A Front-Cover Text may be at most - 5 words, and a Back-Cover Text may be at most 25 words. - - A "Transparent" copy of the Document means a machine-readable copy, - represented in a format whose specification is available to the general - public, that is suitable for revising the document straightforwardly with - generic text editors or (for images composed of pixels) generic paint - programs or (for drawings) some widely available drawing editor, and that - is suitable for input to text formatters or for automatic translation to a - variety of formats suitable for input to text formatters. A copy made in an - otherwise Transparent file format whose markup, or absence of markup, has - been arranged to thwart or discourage subsequent modification by readers is - not Transparent. An image format is not Transparent if used for any - substantial amount of text. A copy that is not "Transparent" is called - "Opaque". - - Examples of suitable formats for Transparent copies include plain ASCII - without markup, Texinfo input format, LaTeX input format, SGML or XML using - a publicly available DTD, and standard-conforming simple HTML, PostScript - or PDF designed for human modification. Examples of transparent image - formats include PNG, XCF and JPG. Opaque formats include proprietary - formats that can be read and edited only by proprietary word processors, - SGML or XML for which the DTD and/or processing tools are not generally - available, and the machine-generated HTML, PostScript or PDF produced by - some word processors for output purposes only. - - The "Title Page" means, for a printed book, the title page itself, plus - such following pages as are needed to hold, legibly, the material this - License requires to appear in the title page. For works in formats which do - not have any title page as such, "Title Page" means the text near the most - prominent appearance of the work's title, preceding the beginning of the - body of the text. - - A section "Entitled XYZ" means a named subunit of the Document whose title - either is precisely XYZ or contains XYZ in parentheses following text that - translates XYZ in another language. (Here XYZ stands for a specific section - name mentioned below, such as "Acknowledgements", "Dedications", - "Endorsements", or "History".) To "Preserve the Title" of such a section - when you modify the Document means that it remains a section "Entitled XYZ" - according to this definition. - - The Document may include Warranty Disclaimers next to the notice which - states that this License applies to the Document. These Warranty - Disclaimers are considered to be included by reference in this License, but - only as regards disclaiming warranties: any other implication that these - Warranty Disclaimers may have is void and has no effect on the meaning of - this License. - - 3. VERBATIM COPYING - - You may copy and distribute the Document in any medium, either commercially - or noncommercially, provided that this License, the copyright notices, and - the license notice saying this License applies to the Document are - reproduced in all copies, and that you add no other conditions whatsoever - to those of this License. You may not use technical measures to obstruct or - control the reading or further copying of the copies you make or - distribute. However, you may accept compensation in exchange for copies. If - you distribute a large enough number of copies you must also follow the - conditions in section 3. - - You may also lend copies, under the same conditions stated above, and you - may publicly display copies. - - 4. COPYING IN QUANTITY - - If you publish printed copies (or copies in media that commonly have - printed covers) of the Document, numbering more than 100, and the - Document's license notice requires Cover Texts, you must enclose the copies - in covers that carry, clearly and legibly, all these Cover Texts: - Front-Cover Texts on the front cover, and Back-Cover Texts on the back - cover. Both covers must also clearly and legibly identify you as the - publisher of these copies. The front cover must present the full title with - all words of the title equally prominent and visible. You may add other - material on the covers in addition. Copying with changes limited to the - covers, as long as they preserve the title of the Document and satisfy - these conditions, can be treated as verbatim copying in other respects. - - If the required texts for either cover are too voluminous to fit legibly, - you should put the first ones listed (as many as fit reasonably) on the - actual cover, and continue the rest onto adjacent pages. - - If you publish or distribute Opaque copies of the Document numbering more - than 100, you must either include a machine-readable Transparent copy along - with each Opaque copy, or state in or with each Opaque copy a - computer-network location from which the general network-using public has - access to download using public-standard network protocols a complete - Transparent copy of the Document, free of added material. If you use the - latter option, you must take reasonably prudent steps, when you begin - distribution of Opaque copies in quantity, to ensure that this Transparent - copy will remain thus accessible at the stated location until at least one - year after the last time you distribute an Opaque copy (directly or through - your agents or retailers) of that edition to the public. - - It is requested, but not required, that you contact the authors of the - Document well before redistributing any large number of copies, to give - them a chance to provide you with an updated version of the Document. - - 5. MODIFICATIONS - - You may copy and distribute a Modified Version of the Document under the - conditions of sections 2 and 3 above, provided that you release the - Modified Version under precisely this License, with the Modified Version - filling the role of the Document, thus licensing distribution and - modification of the Modified Version to whoever possesses a copy of it. In - addition, you must do these things in the Modified Version: - - 1. Use in the Title Page (and on the covers, if any) a title distinct from - that of the Document, and from those of previous versions (which - should, if there were any, be listed in the History section of the - Document). You may use the same title as a previous version if the - original publisher of that version gives permission. - - 2. List on the Title Page, as authors, one or more persons or entities - responsible for authorship of the modifications in the Modified - Version, together with at least five of the principal authors of the - Document (all of its principal authors, if it has fewer than five), - unless they release you from this requirement. - - 3. State on the Title page the name of the publisher of the Modified - Version, as the publisher. - - 4. Preserve all the copyright notices of the Document. - - 5. Add an appropriate copyright notice for your modifications adjacent to - the other copyright notices. - - 6. Include, immediately after the copyright notices, a license notice - giving the public permission to use the Modified Version under the - terms of this License, in the form shown in the Addendum below. - - 7. Preserve in that license notice the full lists of Invariant Sections - and required Cover Texts given in the Document's license notice. - - 8. Include an unaltered copy of this License. - - 9. Preserve the section Entitled "History", Preserve its Title, and add to - it an item stating at least the title, year, new authors, and publisher - of the Modified Version as given on the Title Page. If there is no - section Entitled "History" in the Document, create one stating the - title, year, authors, and publisher of the Document as given on its - Title Page, then add an item describing the Modified Version as stated - in the previous sentence. - - 10. Preserve the network location, if any, given in the Document for public - access to a Transparent copy of the Document, and likewise the network - locations given in the Document for previous versions it was based on. - These may be placed in the "History" section. You may omit a network - location for a work that was published at least four years before the - Document itself, or if the original publisher of the version it refers - to gives permission. - - 11. For any section Entitled "Acknowledgements" or "Dedications", Preserve - the Title of the section, and preserve in the section all the substance - and tone of each of the contributor acknowledgements and/or dedications - given therein. - - 12. Preserve all the Invariant Sections of the Document, unaltered in their - text and in their titles. Section numbers or the equivalent are not - considered part of the section titles. - - 13. Delete any section Entitled "Endorsements". Such a section may not be - included in the Modified Version. - - 14. Do not retitle any existing section to be Entitled "Endorsements" or to - conflict in title with any Invariant Section. - - 15. Preserve any Warranty Disclaimers. - - If the Modified Version includes new front-matter sections or appendices - that qualify as Secondary Sections and contain no material copied from the - Document, you may at your option designate some or all of these sections as - invariant. To do this, add their titles to the list of Invariant Sections - in the Modified Version's license notice. These titles must be distinct - from any other section titles. - - You may add a section Entitled "Endorsements", provided it contains nothing - but endorsements of your Modified Version by various parties--for example, - statements of peer review or that the text has been approved by an - organization as the authoritative definition of a standard. - - You may add a passage of up to five words as a Front-Cover Text, and a - passage of up to 25 words as a Back-Cover Text, to the end of the list of - Cover Texts in the Modified Version. Only one passage of Front-Cover Text - and one of Back-Cover Text may be added by (or through arrangements made - by) any one entity. If the Document already includes a cover text for the - same cover, previously added by you or by arrangement made by the same - entity you are acting on behalf of, you may not add another; but you may - replace the old one, on explicit permission from the previous publisher - that added the old one. - - The author(s) and publisher(s) of the Document do not by this License give - permission to use their names for publicity for or to assert or imply - endorsement of any Modified Version. - - 6. COMBINING DOCUMENTS - - You may combine the Document with other documents released under this - License, under the terms defined in section 4 above for modified versions, - provided that you include in the combination all of the Invariant Sections - of all of the original documents, unmodified, and list them all as - Invariant Sections of your combined work in its license notice, and that - you preserve all their Warranty Disclaimers. - - The combined work need only contain one copy of this License, and multiple - identical Invariant Sections may be replaced with a single copy. If there - are multiple Invariant Sections with the same name but different contents, - make the title of each such section unique by adding at the end of it, in - parentheses, the name of the original author or publisher of that section - if known, or else a unique number. Make the same adjustment to the section - titles in the list of Invariant Sections in the license notice of the - combined work. - - In the combination, you must combine any sections Entitled "History" in the - various original documents, forming one section Entitled "History"; - likewise combine any sections Entitled "Acknowledgements", and any sections - Entitled "Dedications". You must delete all sections Entitled - "Endorsements." - - 7. COLLECTIONS OF DOCUMENTS - - You may make a collection consisting of the Document and other documents - released under this License, and replace the individual copies of this - License in the various documents with a single copy that is included in the - collection, provided that you follow the rules of this License for verbatim - copying of each of the documents in all other respects. - - You may extract a single document from such a collection, and distribute it - individually under this License, provided you insert a copy of this License - into the extracted document, and follow this License in all other respects - regarding verbatim copying of that document. - - 8. AGGREGATION WITH INDEPENDENT WORKS - - A compilation of the Document or its derivatives with other separate and - independent documents or works, in or on a volume of a storage or - distribution medium, is called an "aggregate" if the copyright resulting - from the compilation is not used to limit the legal rights of the - compilation's users beyond what the individual works permit. When the - Document is included in an aggregate, this License does not apply to the - other works in the aggregate which are not themselves derivative works of - the Document. - - If the Cover Text requirement of section 3 is applicable to these copies of - the Document, then if the Document is less than one half of the entire - aggregate, the Document's Cover Texts may be placed on covers that bracket - the Document within the aggregate, or the electronic equivalent of covers - if the Document is in electronic form. Otherwise they must appear on - printed covers that bracket the whole aggregate. - - 9. TRANSLATION - - Translation is considered a kind of modification, so you may distribute - translations of the Document under the terms of section 4. Replacing - Invariant Sections with translations requires special permission from their - copyright holders, but you may include translations of some or all - Invariant Sections in addition to the original versions of these Invariant - Sections. You may include a translation of this License, and all the - license notices in the Document, and any Warranty Disclaimers, provided - that you also include the original English version of this License and the - original versions of those notices and disclaimers. In case of a - disagreement between the translation and the original version of this - License or a notice or disclaimer, the original version will prevail. - - If a section in the Document is Entitled "Acknowledgements", "Dedications", - or "History", the requirement (section 4) to Preserve its Title (section 1) - will typically require changing the actual title. - -10. TERMINATION - - You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the Document except as - expressly provided for under this License. Any other attempt to copy, - modify, sublicense or distribute the Document is void, and will - automatically terminate your rights under this License. However, parties - who have received copies, or rights, from you under this License will not - have their licenses terminated so long as such parties remain in full - compliance. - -11. FUTURE REVISIONS OF THIS LICENSE - - The Free Software Foundation may publish new, revised versions of the GNU - Free Documentation License from time to time. Such new versions will be - similar in spirit to the present version, but may differ in detail to - address new problems or concerns. See http://www.gnu.org/copyleft/. - - Each version of the License is given a distinguishing version number. If - the Document specifies that a particular numbered version of this License - "or any later version" applies to it, you have the option of following the - terms and conditions either of that specified version or of any later - version that has been published (not as a draft) by the Free Software - Foundation. If the Document does not specify a version number of this - License, you may choose any version ever published (not as a draft) by the - Free Software Foundation. - -ADDENDUM: How to use this License for your documents - -To use this License in a document you have written, include a copy of the -License in the document and put the following copyright and license notices -just after the title page: - - Copyright (C) year your name. - Permission is granted to copy, distribute and/or modify this document - under the terms of the GNU Free Documentation License, Version 1.2 - or any later version published by the Free Software Foundation; - with no Invariant Sections, no Front-Cover Texts, and no Back-Cover - Texts. A copy of the license is included in the section entitled ``GNU - Free Documentation License''. - - -If you have Invariant Sections, Front-Cover Texts and Back-Cover Texts, replace -the "with...Texts." line with this: - - with the Invariant Sections being list their titles, with - the Front-Cover Texts being list, and with the Back-Cover Texts - being list. - - -If you have Invariant Sections without Cover Texts, or some other combination -of the three, merge those two alternatives to suit the situation. - -If your document contains nontrivial examples of program code, we recommend -releasing these examples in parallel under your choice of free software -license, such as the GNU General Public License, to permit their use in free -software. ---FDL copy ends----- - - - Excerpt from upstream's README: LICENSE ISSUES: +-------------- -Since the 0.4.2 version the gnutls library is covered under the GNU -Lesser GPL.
