  33
  34 <p>The purpose of this License is to make a manual, textbook, or other
  35 functional and useful document
  36 &quot;free&quot; in the sense of freedom: to
  37 assure everyone the effective freedom to copy and redistribute it,
  38 with or without modifying it, either commercially or noncommercially.
  39 Secondarily, this License preserves for the author and publisher a
  40 way to get credit for their work, while not being considered
  41 responsible for modifications made by others.</p>
  42
  43 <p>This License is a kind of
  44 &quot;copyleft&quot;, which means that
  45 derivative works of the document must themselves be free in the same
  46 sense. It complements the GNU General Public License, which is a
  47 copyleft license designed for free software.</p>
  48
  49 <p>We have designed this License in order to use it for manuals for free
  50 software, because free software needs free documentation: a free
  51 program should come with manuals providing the same freedoms that the
  52 software does. But this License is not limited to software manuals;
  53 it can be used for any textual work, regardless of subject matter or
  54 whether it is published as a printed book. We recommend this License
  55 principally for works whose purpose is instruction or reference.</p>

  63 <h3 class="head2">1. APPLICABILITY AND DEFINITIONS</h3>
  64
  65 <p>This License applies to any manual or other work, in any medium, that
  66 contains a notice placed by the copyright holder saying it can be
  67 distributed under the terms of this License. Such a notice grants a
  68 world-wide, royalty-free license, unlimited in duration, to use that
  69 work under the conditions stated herein. The
  70 &quot;Document&quot;, below, refers to any
  71 such manual or work. Any member of the public is a licensee, and is
  72 addressed as &quot;you&quot;. You accept the
  73 license if you copy, modify or distribute the work in a way requiring
  74 permission under copyright law.</p>
  75
  76 <p>A &quot;Modified Version&quot; of the
  77 Document means any work containing the Document or a portion of it,
  78 either copied verbatim, or with modifications and/or translated into
  79 another language.</p>
  80
  81 <p>A &quot;Secondary Section&quot; is a named
  82 appendix or a front-matter section of the Document that deals
  83 exclusively with the relationship of the publishers or authors of the
  84 Document to the Document's overall subject (or to
  85 related matters) and contains nothing that could fall directly within
  86 that overall subject. (Thus, if the Document is in part a textbook of
  87 mathematics, a Secondary Section may not explain any mathematics.)
  88 The relationship could be a matter of historical connection with the
  89 subject or with related matters, or of legal, commercial,
  90 philosophical, ethical or political position regarding them.</p>
  91
  92 <p>The &quot;Invariant Sections&quot; are
  93 certain Secondary Sections whose titles are designated, as being
  94 those of Invariant Sections, in the notice that says that the
  95 Document is released under this License. If a section does not fit
  96 the above definition of Secondary then it is not allowed to be
  97 designated as Invariant. The Document may contain zero Invariant
  98 Sections. If the Document does not identify any Invariant Sections
  99 then there are none.</p>
 100
 101 <p>The &quot;Cover Texts&quot; are certain short
 102 passages of text that are listed, as Front-Cover Texts or Back-Cover
 103 Texts, in the notice that says that the Document is released under
 104 this License. A Front-Cover Text may be at most 5 words, and a
 105 Back-Cover Text may be at most 25 words.</p>
 106
 107 <p>A &quot;Transparent&quot; copy of the
 108 Document means a machine-readable copy, represented in a format whose
 109 specification is available to the general public, that is suitable
 110 for revising the document straightforwardly with generic text editors
 111 or (for images composed of pixels) generic paint programs or (for
 112 drawings) some widely available drawing editor, and that is suitable
 113 for input to text formatters or for automatic translation to a
 114 variety of formats suitable for input to text formatters. A copy made
 115 in an otherwise Transparent file format whose markup, or absence of
 116 markup, has been arranged to thwart or discourage subsequent
 117 modification by readers is not Transparent. An image format is not
 118 Transparent if used for any substantial amount of text. A copy that
 119 is not &quot;Transparent&quot; is called
 120 &quot;Opaque&quot;.</p>
 121
 122 <p>Examples of suitable formats for Transparent copies include plain
 123 ASCII without markup, T<sup class="superscript">E</sup>Xinfo input
 124 format, L<sup class="superscript">A</sup>T<sup class="superscript">E</sup>X
 125 input format, SGML or XML using a publicly available DTD, and
 126 standard-conforming simple HTML, PostScript or PDF designed for human
 127 modification. Examples of transparent image formats include PNG, XCF
 128 and JPG. Opaque formats include proprietary formats that can be read
 129 and edited only by proprietary word processors, SGML or XML for which
 130 the DTD and/or processing tools are not generally available, and the
 131 machine-generated HTML, PostScript or PDF produced by some word
 132 processors for output purposes only.</p>
 133
 134 <p>The &quot;Title Page&quot; means, for a
 135 printed book, the title page itself, plus such following pages as are
 136 needed to hold, legibly, the material this License requires to appear
 137 in the title page. For works in formats which do not have any title
 138 page as such, &quot;Title Page&quot; means
 139 the text near the most prominent appearance of the
 140 work's title, preceding the beginning of the body of
 141 the text.</p>
 142
 143 <p>A section &quot;Entitled XYZ&quot; means a
 144 named subunit of the Document whose title either is precisely XYZ or
 145 contains XYZ in parentheses following text that translates XYZ in
 146 another language. (Here XYZ stands for a specific section name
 147 mentioned below, such as
 148 &quot;Acknowledgments&quot;,
 149 &quot;Dedications&quot;,
 150 &quot;Endorsements&quot;, or
 151 &quot;History&quot;.) To
 152 &quot;Preserve the Title&quot; of such a
 153 section when you modify the Document means that it remains a section
 154 &quot;Entitled XYZ&quot; according to this
 155 definition.</p>
 156
 157 <p>The Document may include Warranty Disclaimers next to the notice
 158 which states that this License applies to the Document. These
 159 Warranty Disclaimers are considered to be included by reference in
 160 this License, but only as regards disclaiming warranties: any other
 161 implication that these Warranty Disclaimers may have is void and has
 162 no effect on the meaning of this License.</p>

 169
 170 <h3 class="head2">2. VERBATIM COPYING</h3>
 171
 172 <p>You may copy and distribute the Document in any medium, either
 173 commercially or noncommercially, provided that this License, the
 174 copyright notices, and the license notice saying this License applies
 175 to the Document are reproduced in all copies, and that you add no
 176 other conditions whatsoever to those of this License. You may not use
 177 technical measures to obstruct or control the reading or further
 178 copying of the copies you make or distribute. However, you may accept
 179 compensation in exchange for copies. If you distribute a large enough
 180 number of copies you must also follow the conditions in section 3.</p>
 181
 182 <p>You may also lend copies, under the same conditions stated above, and
 183 you may publicly display copies.</p>
 184
 185

 188
 189 <div class="sect2"><a name="samba2-APP-G-SECT-1.5"/>
 190
 191 <h3 class="head2">3. COPYING IN QUANTITY</h3>
 192
 193 <p>If you publish printed copies (or copies in media that commonly have
 194 printed covers) of the Document, numbering more than 100, and the
 195 Document's license notice requires Cover Texts, you
 196 must enclose the copies in covers that carry, clearly and legibly,
 197 all these Cover Texts: Front-Cover Texts on the front cover, and
 198 Back-Cover Texts on the back cover. Both covers must also clearly and
 199 legibly identify you as the publisher of these copies. The front
 200 cover must present the full title with all words of the title equally
 201 prominent and visible. You may add other material on the covers in
 202 addition. Copying with changes limited to the covers, as long as they
 203 preserve the title of the Document and satisfy these conditions, can
 204 be treated as verbatim copying in other respects.</p>
 205
 206 <p>If the required texts for either cover are too voluminous to fit
 207 legibly, you should put the first ones listed (as many as fit
 208 reasonably) on the actual cover, and continue the rest onto adjacent
 209 pages.</p>
 210
 211 <p>If you publish or distribute Opaque copies of the Document numbering
 212 more than 100, you must either include a machine-readable Transparent
 213 copy along with each Opaque copy, or state in or with each Opaque
 214 copy a computer-network location from which the general network-using
 215 public has access to download using public-standard network protocols
 216 a complete Transparent copy of the Document, free of added material.
 217 If you use the latter option, you must take reasonably prudent steps,
 218 when you begin distribution of Opaque copies in quantity, to ensure
 219 that this Transparent copy will remain thus accessible at the stated
 220 location until at least one year after the last time you distribute
 221 an Opaque copy (directly or through your agents or retailers) of that
 222 edition to the public.</p>
 223
 224 <p>It is requested, but not required, that you contact the authors of
 225 the Document well before redistributing any large number of copies,
 226 to give them a chance to provide you with an updated version of the
 227 Document.</p>

 235 <h3 class="head2">4. MODIFICATIONS</h3>
 236
 237 <p>You may copy and distribute a Modified Version of the Document under
 238 the conditions of sections 2 and 3 above, provided that you release
 239 the Modified Version under precisely this License, with the Modified
 240 Version filling the role of the Document, thus licensing distribution
 241 and modification of the Modified Version to whoever possesses a copy
 242 of it. In addition, you must do these things in the Modified Version:</p>
 243
 244 <ol><li>
 245 <p>Use in the Title Page (and on the covers, if any) a title distinct
 246 from that of the Document, and from those of previous versions (which
 247 should, if there were any, be listed in the History section of the
 248 Document). You may use the same title as a previous version if the
 249 original publisher of that version gives permission.</p>
 250 </li><li>
 251 <p>List on the Title Page, as authors, one or more persons or entities
 252 responsible for authorship of the modifications in the Modified
 253 Version, together with at least five of the principal authors of the
 254 Document (all of its principal authors, if it has fewer than five),
 255 unless they release you from this requirement.</p>
 256 </li><li>
 257 <p>State on the Title page the name of the publisher of the Modified
 258 Version, as the publisher.</p>
 259 </li><li>
 260 <p>Preserve all the copyright notices of the Document.</p>
 261 </li><li>
 262 <p>Add an appropriate copyright notice for your modifications adjacent
 263 to the other copyright notices.</p>
 264 </li><li>
 265 <p>Include, immediately after the copyright notices, a license notice
 266 giving the public permission to use the Modified Version under the
 267 terms of this License, in the form shown in the Addendum below.</p>
 268 </li><li>
 269 <p>Preserve in that license notice the full lists of Invariant Sections
 270 and required Cover Texts given in the Document's
 271 license notice.</p>
 272 </li><li>
 273 <p>Include an unaltered copy of this License.</p>
 274 </li><li>
 275 <p>Preserve the section Entitled
 276 &quot;History&quot;, Preserve its Title, and
 277 add to it an item stating at least the title, year, new authors, and
 278 publisher of the Modified Version as given on the Title Page. If
 279 there is no section Entitled
 280 &quot;History&quot; in the Document, create
 281 one stating the title, year, authors, and publisher of the Document
 282 as given on its Title Page, then add an item describing the Modified
 283 Version as stated in the previous sentence.</p>
 284 </li><li>
 285 <p>Preserve the network location, if any, given in the Document for
 286 public access to a Transparent copy of the Document, and likewise the
 287 network locations given in the Document for previous versions it was
 288 based on. These may be placed in the
 289 &quot;History&quot; section. You may omit a
 290 network location for a work that was published at least four years
 291 before the Document itself, or if the original publisher of the
 292 version it refers to gives permission.</p>
 293 </li><li>
 294 <p>For any section Entitled
 295 &quot;Acknowledgments&quot; or
 296 &quot;Dedications&quot;, Preserve the Title
 297 of the section, and preserve in the section all the substance and
 298 tone of each of the contributor acknowledgments and/or dedications
 299 given therein.</p>
 300 </li><li>
 301 <p>Preserve all the Invariant Sections of the Document, unaltered in
 302 their text and in their titles. Section numbers or the equivalent are
 303 not considered part of the section titles.</p>
 304 </li><li>
 305 <p>Delete any section Entitled
 306 &quot;Endorsements&quot;. Such a section may
 307 not be included in the Modified Version.</p>
 308 </li><li>
 309 <p>Do not retitle any existing section to be Entitled
 310 &quot;Endorsements&quot; or to conflict in
 311 title with any Invariant Section.</p>
 312 </li><li>
 313 <p>Preserve any Warranty Disclaimers.</p>
 314
 315 <p>If the Modified Version includes new front-matter sections or
 316 appendices that qualify as Secondary Sections and contain no material
 317 copied from the Document, you may at your option designate some or
 318 all of these sections as invariant. To do this, add their titles to
 319 the list of Invariant Sections in the Modified
 320 Version's license notice. These titles must be
 321 distinct from any other section titles.</p>
 322
 323 <p>You may add a section Entitled
 324 &quot;Endorsements&quot;, provided it
 325 contains nothing but endorsements of your Modified Version by various
 326 parties&mdash;for example, statements of peer review or that the text
 327 has been approved by an organization as the authoritative definition
 328 of a standard.</p>
 329
 330 <p>You may add a passage of up to five words as a Front-Cover Text, and
 331 a passage of up to 25 words as a Back-Cover Text, to the end of the
 332 list of Cover Texts in the Modified Version. Only one passage of
 333 Front-Cover Text and one of Back-Cover Text may be added by (or
 334 through arrangements made by) any one entity. If the Document already
 335 includes a cover text for the same cover, previously added by you or
 336 by arrangement made by the same entity you are acting on behalf of,
 337 you may not add another; but you may replace the old one, on explicit
 338 permission from the previous publisher that added the old one.</p>
 339
 340 <p>The author(s) and publisher(s) of the Document do not by this License
 341 give permission to use their names for publicity for or to assert or
 342 imply endorsement of any Modified Version.</p>

 350 <h3 class="head2">5. COMBINING DOCUMENTS</h3>
 351
 352 <p>You may combine the Document with other documents released under this
 353 License, under the terms defined in section 4 above for modified
 354 versions, provided that you include in the combination all of the
 355 Invariant Sections of all of the original documents, unmodified, and
 356 list them all as Invariant Sections of your combined work in its
 357 license notice, and that you preserve all their Warranty Disclaimers.</p>
 358
 359 <p>The combined work need only contain one copy of this License, and
 360 multiple identical Invariant Sections may be replaced with a single
 361 copy. If there are multiple Invariant Sections with the same name but
 362 different contents, make the title of each such section unique by
 363 adding at the end of it, in parentheses, the name of the original
 364 author or publisher of that section if known, or else a unique
 365 number. Make the same adjustment to the section titles in the list of
 366 Invariant Sections in the license notice of the combined work.</p>
 367
 368 <p>In the combination, you must combine any sections Entitled
 369 &quot;History&quot; in the various original
 370 documents, forming one section Entitled
 371 &quot;History&quot;; likewise combine any
 372 sections Entitled
 373 &quot;Acknowledgements&quot;, and any
 374 sections Entitled &quot;Dedications&quot;.
 375 You must delete all sections Entitled
 376 &quot;Endorsements&quot;.</p>

 383
 384 <h3 class="head2">6. COLLECTIONS OF DOCUMENTS</h3>
 385
 386 <p>You may make a collection consisting of the Document and other
 387 documents released under this License, and replace the individual
 388 copies of this License in the various documents with a single copy
 389 that is included in the collection, provided that you follow the
 390 rules of this License for verbatim copying of each of the documents
 391 in all other respects.</p>
 392
 393 <p>You may extract a single document from such a collection, and
 394 distribute it individually under this License, provided you insert a
 395 copy of this License into the extracted document, and follow this
 396 License in all other respects regarding verbatim copying of that
 397 document.</p>

 402
 403 <div class="sect2"><a name="samba2-APP-G-SECT-1.9"/>
 404
 405 <h3 class="head2">7. AGGREGATION WITH INDEPENDENT WORKS</h3>
 406
 407 <p>A compilation of the Document or its derivatives with other separate
 408 and independent documents or works, in or on a volume of a storage or
 409 distribution medium, is called an
 410 &quot;aggregate&quot; if the copyright
 411 resulting from the compilation is not used to limit the legal rights
 412 of the compilation's users beyond what the
 413 individual works permit. When the Document is included as an
 414 aggregate, this License does not apply to the other works in the
 415 aggregate which are not themselves derivative works of the Document.</p>
 416
 417 <p>If the Cover Text requirement of section 3 is applicable to these
 418 copies of the Document, then if the Document is less than one half of
 419 the entire aggregate, the Document's Cover Texts may
 420 be placed on covers that bracket the Document within the aggregate,
 421 or the electronic equivalent of covers if the Document is in
 422 electronic form. Otherwise they must appear on printed covers that
 423 bracket the whole aggregate.</p>

 430
 431 <h3 class="head2">8. TRANSLATION</h3>
 432
 433 <p>Translation is considered a kind of modification, so you may
 434 distribute translations of the Document under the terms of section 4.
 435 Replacing Invariant Sections with translations requires special
 436 permission from their copyright holders, but you may include
 437 translations of some or all Invariant Sections in addition to the
 438 original versions of these Invariant Sections. You may include a
 439 translation of this License, and all the license notices in the
 440 Document, and any Warranty Disclaimers, provided that you also
 441 include the original English version of this License and the original
 442 versions of those notices and disclaimers. In case of a disagreement
 443 between the translation and the original version of this License or a
 444 notice or disclaimer, the original version will prevail.</p>
 445
 446 <p>If a section in the Document is Entitled
 447 &quot;Acknowledgements&quot;,
 448 &quot;Dedications&quot;, or
 449 &quot;History&quot;, the requirement (section
 450 4) to Preserve its Title (section 1) will typically require changing
 451 the actual title.</p>

 460
 461 <p>You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the Document
 462 except as expressly provided for under this License. Any other
 463 attempt to copy, modify, sublicense or distribute the Document is
 464 void, and will automatically terminate your rights under this
 465 License. However, parties who have received copies, or rights, from
 466 you under this License will not have their licenses terminated so
 467 long as such parties remain in full compliance.</p>

 476
 477 <p>The Free Software Foundation may publish new, revised versions of the
 478 GNU Free Documentation License from time to time. Such new versions
 479 will be similar in spirit to the present version, but may differ in
 480 detail to address new problems or concerns. See <a href="http://www.gnu.org/copyleft/">http://www.gnu.org/copyleft/</a>.</p>
 481
 482 <p>Each version of the License is given a distinguishing version number.
 483 If the Document specifies that a particular numbered version of this
 484 License &quot;or any later version&quot;
 485 applies to it, you have the option of following the terms and
 486 conditions either of that specified version or of any later version
 487 that has been published (not as a draft) by the Free Software
 488 Foundation. If the Document does not specify a version number of this
 489 License, you may choose any version ever published (not as a draft)
 490 by the Free Software Foundation. <a name="INDEX-2"/></p>
