| bos@5 | 4 Version 1.0, 8 June 1999 |
| bos@5 | 5 |
| bos@5 | 6 \section{Requirements on both unmodified and modified versions} |
| bos@5 | 7 |
| bos@5 | 8 The Open Publication works may be reproduced and distributed in whole |
| bos@5 | 9 or in part, in any medium physical or electronic, provided that the |
| bos@5 | 10 terms of this license are adhered to, and that this license or an |
| bos@5 | 11 incorporation of it by reference (with any options elected by the |
| bos@5 | 12 author(s) and/or publisher) is displayed in the reproduction. |
| bos@5 | 13 |
| bos@5 | 14 Proper form for an incorporation by reference is as follows: |
| bos@5 | 15 |
| bos@5 | 16 \begin{quote} |
| bos@5 | 17 Copyright (c) \emph{year} by \emph{author's name or designee}. This |
| bos@5 | 18 material may be distributed only subject to the terms and conditions |
| bos@5 | 19 set forth in the Open Publication License, v\emph{x.y} or later (the |
| bos@5 | 20 latest version is presently available at |
| bos@5 | 21 \url{http://www.opencontent.org/openpub/}). |
| bos@5 | 22 \end{quote} |
| bos@5 | 23 |
| bos@5 | 24 The reference must be immediately followed with any options elected by |
| bos@5 | 25 the author(s) and/or publisher of the document (see |
| bos@5 | 26 section~\ref{sec:opl:options}). |
| bos@5 | 27 |
| bos@5 | 28 Commercial redistribution of Open Publication-licensed material is |
| bos@5 | 29 permitted. |
| bos@5 | 30 |
| bos@5 | 31 Any publication in standard (paper) book form shall require the |
| bos@5 | 32 citation of the original publisher and author. The publisher and |
| bos@5 | 33 author's names shall appear on all outer surfaces of the book. On all |
| bos@5 | 34 outer surfaces of the book the original publisher's name shall be as |
| bos@5 | 35 large as the title of the work and cited as possessive with respect to |
| bos@5 | 36 the title. |
| bos@5 | 37 |
| bos@5 | 38 \section{Copyright} |
| bos@5 | 39 |
| bos@5 | 40 The copyright to each Open Publication is owned by its author(s) or |
| bos@5 | 41 designee. |
| bos@5 | 42 |
| bos@5 | 43 \section{Scope of license} |
| bos@5 | 44 |
| bos@5 | 45 The following license terms apply to all Open Publication works, |
| bos@5 | 46 unless otherwise explicitly stated in the document. |
| bos@5 | 47 |
| bos@5 | 48 Mere aggregation of Open Publication works or a portion of an Open |
| bos@5 | 49 Publication work with other works or programs on the same media shall |
| bos@5 | 50 not cause this license to apply to those other works. The aggregate |
| bos@5 | 51 work shall contain a notice specifying the inclusion of the Open |
| bos@5 | 52 Publication material and appropriate copyright notice. |
| bos@5 | 53 |
| bos@5 | 54 \textbf{Severability}. If any part of this license is found to be |
| bos@5 | 55 unenforceable in any jurisdiction, the remaining portions of the |
| bos@5 | 56 license remain in force. |
| bos@5 | 57 |
| bos@5 | 58 \textbf{No warranty}. Open Publication works are licensed and provided |
| bos@5 | 59 ``as is'' without warranty of any kind, express or implied, including, |
| bos@5 | 60 but not limited to, the implied warranties of merchantability and |
| bos@5 | 61 fitness for a particular purpose or a warranty of non-infringement. |
| bos@5 | 62 |
| bos@5 | 63 \section{Requirements on modified works} |
| bos@5 | 64 |
| bos@5 | 65 All modified versions of documents covered by this license, including |
| bos@5 | 66 translations, anthologies, compilations and partial documents, must |
| bos@5 | 67 meet the following requirements: |
| bos@5 | 68 |
| bos@5 | 69 \begin{enumerate} |
| bos@5 | 70 \item The modified version must be labeled as such. |
| bos@5 | 71 \item The person making the modifications must be identified and the |
| bos@5 | 72 modifications dated. |
| bos@5 | 73 \item Acknowledgement of the original author and publisher if |
| bos@5 | 74 applicable must be retained according to normal academic citation |
| bos@5 | 75 practices. |
| bos@5 | 76 \item The location of the original unmodified document must be |
| bos@5 | 77 identified. |
| bos@5 | 78 \item The original author's (or authors') name(s) may not be used to |
| bos@5 | 79 assert or imply endorsement of the resulting document without the |
| bos@5 | 80 original author's (or authors') permission. |
| bos@5 | 81 \end{enumerate} |
| bos@5 | 82 |
| bos@5 | 83 \section{Good-practice recommendations} |
| bos@5 | 84 |
| bos@5 | 85 In addition to the requirements of this license, it is requested from |
| bos@5 | 86 and strongly recommended of redistributors that: |
| bos@5 | 87 |
| bos@5 | 88 \begin{enumerate} |
| bos@5 | 89 \item If you are distributing Open Publication works on hardcopy or |
| bos@5 | 90 CD-ROM, you provide email notification to the authors of your intent |
| bos@5 | 91 to redistribute at least thirty days before your manuscript or media |
| bos@5 | 92 freeze, to give the authors time to provide updated documents. This |
| bos@5 | 93 notification should describe modifications, if any, made to the |
| bos@5 | 94 document. |
| bos@5 | 95 \item All substantive modifications (including deletions) be either |
| bos@5 | 96 clearly marked up in the document or else described in an attachment |
| bos@5 | 97 to the document. |
| bos@5 | 98 \item Finally, while it is not mandatory under this license, it is |
| bos@5 | 99 considered good form to offer a free copy of any hardcopy and CD-ROM |
| bos@5 | 100 expression of an Open Publication-licensed work to its author(s). |
| bos@5 | 101 \end{enumerate} |
| bos@5 | 102 |
| bos@5 | 103 \section{License options} |
| bos@5 | 104 \label{sec:opl:options} |
| bos@5 | 105 |
| bos@5 | 106 The author(s) and/or publisher of an Open Publication-licensed |
| bos@5 | 107 document may elect certain options by appending language to the |
| bos@5 | 108 reference to or copy of the license. These options are considered part |
| bos@5 | 109 of the license instance and must be included with the license (or its |
| bos@5 | 110 incorporation by reference) in derived works. |
| bos@5 | 111 |
| bos@5 | 112 \begin{enumerate}[A] |
| bos@5 | 113 \item To prohibit distribution of substantively modified versions |
| bos@5 | 114 without the explicit permission of the author(s). ``Substantive |
| bos@5 | 115 modification'' is defined as a change to the semantic content of the |
| bos@5 | 116 document, and excludes mere changes in format or typographical |
| bos@5 | 117 corrections. |
| bos@5 | 118 |
| bos@5 | 119 To accomplish this, add the phrase ``Distribution of substantively |
| bos@5 | 120 modified versions of this document is prohibited without the |
| bos@5 | 121 explicit permission of the copyright holder.'' to the license |
| bos@5 | 122 reference or copy. |
| bos@5 | 123 |
| bos@5 | 124 \item To prohibit any publication of this work or derivative works in |
| bos@5 | 125 whole or in part in standard (paper) book form for commercial |
| bos@5 | 126 purposes is prohibited unless prior permission is obtained from the |
| bos@5 | 127 copyright holder. |
| bos@5 | 128 |
| bos@5 | 129 To accomplish this, add the phrase ``Distribution of the work or |
| bos@5 | 130 derivative of the work in any standard (paper) book form is |
| bos@5 | 131 prohibited unless prior permission is obtained from the copyright |
| bos@5 | 132 holder.'' to the license reference or copy. |
