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 IS

ACCEPTANCE OF SUCH TERMS AND CONDITIONS.

1. Definitions

 

1. "Collective Work" means a work, such as a

periodical issue, anthology or encyclopedia, in

which the Work in its entirety in unmodified form,

along with a number of other contributions,

constituting separate and independent works in

themselves, are assembled into a collective whole. A

work that constitutes a Collective Work will not be

considered a Derivative Work (as defined below) for

the purposes of this License.

2. "Derivative Work" means a work based upon the

Work or upon the Work and other pre-existing works,

such as a translation, musical arrangement,

dramatization, fictionalization, motion picture

version, sound recording, art reproduction,

abridgment, condensation, or any other form in which

the Work may be recast, transformed, or adapted,

except that a work that constitutes a Collective

Work will not be considered a Derivative Work for

the purpose of this License.

3. "Licensor" means the individual or entity that

offers the Work under the terms of this License.

4. "Original Author" means the individual or entity

who created the Work.

5. "Work" means the copyrightable work of authorship

offered under the terms of this License.

6. "You" means an individual or entity exercising

rights under this License who has not previously

violated the terms of this License with respect to

the Work, or who has received express permission

from the Licensor to exercise rights under this

License despite a previous violation.

 

2. Fair Use Rights. Nothing in this license is intended to

reduce, limit, or restrict any rights arising from fair use,

first sale or other limitations on the exclusive rights of the

copyright owner under copyright law or other applicable laws.

3. License Grant. Subject to the terms and conditions of this

License, Licensor hereby grants You a worldwide, royalty-free,

non-exclusive, perpetual (for the duration of the applicable

copyright) license to exercise the rights in the Work as stated

below:

 

1. to reproduce the Work, to incorporate the Work

into one or more Collective Works, and to reproduce

the Work as incorporated in the Collective Works;

2. to create and reproduce Derivative Works;

3. to distribute copies or phonorecords of, display

publicly, perform publicly, and perform publicly by

means of a digital audio transmission the Work

including as incorporated in Collective Works;

4. to distribute copies or phonorecords of, display

publicly, perform publicly, and perform publicly by

means of a digital audio transmission Derivative

Works;

 

The above rights may be exercised in all media and formats

whether now known or hereafter devised. The above rights include

the right to make such modifications as are technically necessary

to exercise the rights in other media and formats. All rights not

expressly granted by Licensor are hereby reserved.

4. Restrictions. The license granted in Section 3 above is

expressly made subject to and limited by the following

restrictions:

 

1. You may distribute, publicly display, publicly

perform, or publicly digitally perform the Work only

under the terms of this License, and You must

include a copy of, or the Uniform Resource

Identifier for, this License with every copy or

phonorecord of the Work You distribute, publicly

display, publicly perform, or publicly digitally

perform. You may not offer or impose any terms on

the Work that alter or restrict the terms of this

License or the recipients' exercise of the rights

granted hereunder. You may not sublicense the Work.

You must keep intact all notices that refer to this

License and to the disclaimer of warranties. You may

not distribute, publicly display, publicly perform,

or publicly digitally perform the Work with any

technological measures that control access or use of

the Work in a manner inconsistent with the terms of

this License Agreement. The above applies to the

Work as incorporated in a Collective Work, but this

does not require the Collective Work apart from the

Work itself to be made subject to the terms of this

License. If You create a Collective Work, upon

notice from any Licensor You must, to the extent

practicable, remove from the Collective Work any

reference to such Licensor or the Original Author,

as requested. If You create a Derivative Work, upon

notice from any Licensor You must, to the extent

practicable, remove from the Derivative Work any

reference to such Licensor or the Original Author,

as requested.

2. You may distribute, publicly display, publicly

perform, or publicly digitally perform a Derivative

Work only under the terms of this License, and You

must include a copy of, or the Uniform Resource

Identifier for, this License with every copy or

phonorecord of each Derivative Work You distribute,

publicly display, publicly perform, or publicly

digitally perform. You may not offer or impose any

terms on the Derivative Works that alter or restrict

the terms of this License or the recipients'

exercise of the rights granted hereunder, and You

must keep intact all notices that refer to this

License and to the disclaimer of warranties. You may

not distribute, publicly display, publicly perform,

or publicly digitally perform the Derivative Work

with any technological measures that control access

or use of the Work in a manner inconsistent with the

terms of this License Agreement. The above applies

to the Derivative Work as incorporated in a

Collective Work, but this does not require the

Collective Work apart from the Derivative Work

itself to be made subject to the terms of this

License.

3. You may not exercise any of the rights granted to

You in Section 3 above in any manner that is

primarily intended for or directed toward commercial

advantage or private monetary compensation. The

exchange of the Work for other copyrighted works by

means of digital file-sharing or otherwise shall not

be considered to be intended for or directed toward

commercial advantage or private monetary

compensation, provided there is no payment of any

monetary compensation in connection with the

exchange of copyrighted works.

4. If you distribute, publicly display, publicly

perform, or publicly digitally perform the Work or

any Derivative Works or Collective Works, You must

keep intact all copyright notices for the Work and

give the Original Author credit reasonable to the

medium or means You are utilizing by conveying the

name (or pseudonym if applicable) of the Original

Author if supplied; the title of the Work if

supplied; in the case of a Derivative Work, a credit

identifying the use of the Work in the Derivative

Work (e.g., "French translation of the Work by

Original Author," or "Screenplay based on original

Work by Original Author"). Such credit may be

implemented in any reasonable manner; provided,

however, that in the case of a Derivative Work or

Collective Work, at a minimum such credit will

appear where any other comparable authorship credit

appears and in a manner at least as prominent as

such other comparable authorship credit.

 

5. Representations, Warranties and Disclaimer

 

1. By offering the Work for public release under

this License, Licensor represents and warrants that,

to the best of Licensor's knowledge after reasonable

inquiry:

 

1. Licensor has secured all rights in the Work

hereunder and to permit the lawful exercise of

the rights granted hereunder without You

having any obligation to pay any royalties,

compulsory license fees, residuals or any

other payments;

2. The Work does not infringe the copyright,

trademark, publicity rights, common law rights

or any other right of any third party or

constitute defamation, invasion of privacy or

other tortious injury to any third party.

 

2. EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY STATED IN THIS LICENSE OR

OTHERWISE AGREED IN WRITING OR REQUIRED BY

APPLICABLE LAW, THE WORK IS LICENSED ON AN "AS IS"

BASIS, WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EITHER

EXPRESS OR IMPLIED INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION,

ANY WARRANTIES REGARDING THE CONTENTS OR ACCURACY OF

THE WORK.

 

6. Limitation on Liability. EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT REQUIRED BY

APPLICABLE LAW, AND EXCEPT FOR DAMAGES ARISING FROM LIABILITY TO

5, IN NO EVENT WILL LICENSOR BE LIABLE TO YOU ON ANY LEGAL THEORY

DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THIS LICENSE OR THE USE OF THE WORK, EVEN

IF LICENSOR HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

7. Termination

 

1. This License and the rights granted hereunder

will terminate automatically upon any breach by You

of the terms of this License. Individuals or

entities who have received Derivative Works or

Collective Works from You under this License,

however, will not have their licenses terminated

provided such individuals or entities remain in full

compliance with those licenses. Sections 1, 2, 5, 6,

7, and 8 will survive any termination of this

License.

2. Subject to the above terms and conditions, the

license granted here is perpetual (for the duration

of the applicable copyright in the Work).

Notwithstanding the above, Licensor reserves the

right to release the Work under different license

terms or to stop distributing the Work at any time;

provided, however that any such election will not

serve to withdraw this License (or any other license

that has been, or is required to be, granted under

the terms of this License), and this License will

continue in full force and effect unless terminated

as stated above.

 

8. Miscellaneous

 

1. Each time You distribute or publicly digitally

perform the Work or a Collective Work, the Licensor

offers to the recipient a license to the Work on the

same terms and conditions as the license granted to

You under this License.

2. Each time You distribute or publicly digitally

perform a Derivative Work, Licensor offers to the

recipient a license to the original Work on the same

terms and conditions as the license granted to You

under this License.

3. If any provision of this License is invalid or

unenforceable under applicable law, it shall not

affect the validity or enforceability of the

remainder of the terms of this License, and without

further action by the parties to this agreement,

such provision shall be reformed to the minimum

extent necessary to make such provision valid and

enforceable.

4. No term or provision of this License shall be

deemed waived and no breach consented to unless such

waiver or consent shall be in writing and signed by

the party to be charged with such waiver or consent.

5. This License constitutes the entire agreement

between the parties with respect to the Work

licensed here. There are no understandings,

agreements or representations with respect to the

Work not specified here. Licensor shall not be bound

by any additional provisions that may appear in any

communication from You. This License may not be

modified without the mutual written agreement of the

Licensor and You.
