- <p> </p>
- <p>LPPL Version 1.3c 2008-05-04</p>
- <p> </p>
- <p>Copyright 1999 2002-2008 LaTeX3 Project</p>
- <p> Everyone is allowed to distribute verbatim copies of this</p>
- <p> license document, but modification of it is not allowed.</p>
- <p> </p>
- <p> </p>
- <p>PREAMBLE</p>
- <p>========</p>
- <p> </p>
- <p>The LaTeX Project Public License (LPPL) is the primary license under</p>
- <p>which the LaTeX kernel and the base LaTeX packages are distributed.</p>
- <p> </p>
- <p>You may use this license for any work of which you hold the copyright</p>
- <p>and which you wish to distribute. This license may be particularly</p>
- <p>suitable if your work is TeX-related (such as a LaTeX package), but</p>
- <p>it is written in such a way that you can use it even if your work is</p>
- <p>unrelated to TeX.</p>
- <p> </p>
- <p>The section `WHETHER AND HOW TO DISTRIBUTE WORKS UNDER THIS LICENSE',</p>
- <p>below, gives instructions, examples, and recommendations for authors</p>
- <p>who are considering distributing their works under this license.</p>
- <p> </p>
- <p>This license gives conditions under which a work may be distributed</p>
- <p>and modified, as well as conditions under which modified versions of</p>
- <p>that work may be distributed.</p>
- <p> </p>
- <p>We, the LaTeX3 Project, believe that the conditions below give you</p>
- <p>the freedom to make and distribute modified versions of your work</p>
- <p>that conform with whatever technical specifications you wish while</p>
- <p>maintaining the availability, integrity, and reliability of</p>
- <p>that work. If you do not see how to achieve your goal while</p>
- <p>meeting these conditions, then read the document `cfgguide.tex'</p>
- <p>and `modguide.tex' in the base LaTeX distribution for suggestions.</p>
- <p> </p>
- <p> </p>
- <p>DEFINITIONS</p>
- <p>===========</p>
- <p> </p>
- <p>In this license document the following terms are used:</p>
- <p> </p>
- <p> `Work'</p>
- <p> Any work being distributed under this License.</p>
- <p> </p>
- <p> `Derived Work'</p>
- <p> Any work that under any applicable law is derived from the Work.</p>
- <p> </p>
- <p> `Modification'</p>
- <p> Any procedure that produces a Derived Work under any applicable</p>
- <p> law -- for example, the production of a file containing an</p>
- <p> original file associated with the Work or a significant portion of</p>
- <p> such a file, either verbatim or with modifications and/or</p>
- <p> translated into another language.</p>
- <p> </p>
- <p> `Modify'</p>
- <p> To apply any procedure that produces a Derived Work under any</p>
- <p> applicable law.</p>
- <p> </p>
- <p> `Distribution'</p>
- <p> Making copies of the Work available from one person to another, in</p>
- <p> whole or in part. Distribution includes (but is not limited to)</p>
- <p> making any electronic components of the Work accessible by</p>
- <p> file transfer protocols such as FTP or HTTP or by shared file</p>
- <p> systems such as Sun's Network File System (NFS).</p>
- <p> </p>
- <p> `Compiled Work'</p>
- <p> A version of the Work that has been processed into a form where it</p>
- <p> is directly usable on a computer system. This processing may</p>
- <p> include using installation facilities provided by the Work,</p>
- <p> transformations of the Work, copying of components of the Work, or</p>
- <p> other activities. Note that modification of any installation</p>
- <p> facilities provided by the Work constitutes modification of the Work.</p>
- <p> </p>
- <p> `Current Maintainer'</p>
- <p> A person or persons nominated as such within the Work. If there is</p>
- <p> no such explicit nomination then it is the `Copyright Holder' under</p>
- <p> any applicable law.</p>
- <p> </p>
- <p> `Base Interpreter'</p>
- <p> A program or process that is normally needed for running or</p>
- <p> interpreting a part or the whole of the Work. </p>
- <p> </p>
- <p> A Base Interpreter may depend on external components but these</p>
- <p> are not considered part of the Base Interpreter provided that each</p>
- <p> external component clearly identifies itself whenever it is used</p>
- <p> interactively. Unless explicitly specified when applying the</p>
- <p> license to the Work, the only applicable Base Interpreter is a</p>
- <p> `LaTeX-Format' or in the case of files belonging to the</p>
- <p> `LaTeX-format' a program implementing the `TeX language'.</p>
- <p> </p>
- <p> </p>
- <p> </p>
- <p>CONDITIONS ON DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION</p>
- <p>===========================================</p>
- <p> </p>
- <p>1. Activities other than distribution and/or modification of the Work</p>
- <p>are not covered by this license; they are outside its scope. In</p>
- <p>particular, the act of running the Work is not restricted and no</p>
- <p>requirements are made concerning any offers of support for the Work.</p>
- <p> </p>
- <p>2. You may distribute a complete, unmodified copy of the Work as you</p>
- <p>received it. Distribution of only part of the Work is considered</p>
- <p>modification of the Work, and no right to distribute such a Derived</p>
- <p>Work may be assumed under the terms of this clause.</p>
- <p> </p>
- <p>3. You may distribute a Compiled Work that has been generated from a</p>
- <p>complete, unmodified copy of the Work as distributed under Clause 2</p>
- <p>above, as long as that Compiled Work is distributed in such a way that</p>
- <p>the recipients may install the Compiled Work on their system exactly</p>
- <p>as it would have been installed if they generated a Compiled Work</p>
- <p>directly from the Work.</p>
- <p> </p>
- <p>4. If you are the Current Maintainer of the Work, you may, without</p>
- <p>restriction, modify the Work, thus creating a Derived Work. You may</p>
- <p>also distribute the Derived Work without restriction, including</p>
- <p>Compiled Works generated from the Derived Work. Derived Works</p>
- <p>distributed in this manner by the Current Maintainer are considered to</p>
- <p>be updated versions of the Work.</p>
- <p> </p>
- <p>5. If you are not the Current Maintainer of the Work, you may modify</p>
- <p>your copy of the Work, thus creating a Derived Work based on the Work,</p>
- <p>and compile this Derived Work, thus creating a Compiled Work based on</p>
- <p>the Derived Work.</p>
- <p> </p>
- <p>6. If you are not the Current Maintainer of the Work, you may</p>
- <p>distribute a Derived Work provided the following conditions are met</p>
- <p>for every component of the Work unless that component clearly states</p>
- <p>in the copyright notice that it is exempt from that condition. Only</p>
- <p>the Current Maintainer is allowed to add such statements of exemption</p>
- <p>to a component of the Work.</p>
- <p> </p>
- <p> a. If a component of this Derived Work can be a direct replacement</p>
- <p> for a component of the Work when that component is used with the</p>
- <p> Base Interpreter, then, wherever this component of the Work</p>
- <p> identifies itself to the user when used interactively with that</p>
- <p> Base Interpreter, the replacement component of this Derived Work</p>
- <p> clearly and unambiguously identifies itself as a modified version</p>
- <p> of this component to the user when used interactively with that</p>
- <p> Base Interpreter.</p>
- <p> </p>
- <p> b. Every component of the Derived Work contains prominent notices</p>
- <p> detailing the nature of the changes to that component, or a</p>
- <p> prominent reference to another file that is distributed as part</p>
- <p> of the Derived Work and that contains a complete and accurate log</p>
- <p> of the changes.</p>
- <p> </p>
- <p> c. No information in the Derived Work implies that any persons,</p>
- <p> including (but not limited to) the authors of the original version</p>
- <p> of the Work, provide any support, including (but not limited to)</p>
- <p> the reporting and handling of errors, to recipients of the</p>
- <p> Derived Work unless those persons have stated explicitly that</p>
- <p> they do provide such support for the Derived Work.</p>
- <p> </p>
- <p> d. You distribute at least one of the following with the Derived Work:</p>
- <p> </p>
- <p> 1. A complete, unmodified copy of the Work;</p>
- <p> if your distribution of a modified component is made by</p>
- <p> offering access to copy the modified component from a</p>
- <p> designated place, then offering equivalent access to copy</p>
- <p> the Work from the same or some similar place meets this</p>
- <p> condition, even though third parties are not compelled to</p>
- <p> copy the Work along with the modified component;</p>
- <p> </p>
- <p> 2. Information that is sufficient to obtain a complete,</p>
- <p> unmodified copy of the Work.</p>
- <p> </p>
- <p>7. If you are not the Current Maintainer of the Work, you may</p>
- <p>distribute a Compiled Work generated from a Derived Work, as long as</p>
- <p>the Derived Work is distributed to all recipients of the Compiled</p>
- <p>Work, and as long as the conditions of Clause 6, above, are met with</p>
- <p>regard to the Derived Work.</p>
- <p> </p>
- <p>8. The conditions above are not intended to prohibit, and hence do not</p>
- <p>apply to, the modification, by any method, of any component so that it</p>
- <p>becomes identical to an updated version of that component of the Work as</p>
- <p>it is distributed by the Current Maintainer under Clause 4, above.</p>
- <p> </p>
- <p>9. Distribution of the Work or any Derived Work in an alternative</p>
- <p>format, where the Work or that Derived Work (in whole or in part) is</p>
- <p>then produced by applying some process to that format, does not relax or</p>
- <p>nullify any sections of this license as they pertain to the results of</p>
- <p>applying that process.</p>
- <p> </p>
- <p>10. a. A Derived Work may be distributed under a different license</p>
- <p> provided that license itself honors the conditions listed in</p>
- <p> Clause 6 above, in regard to the Work, though it does not have</p>
- <p> to honor the rest of the conditions in this license.</p>
- <p> </p>
- <p> b. If a Derived Work is distributed under a different license, that</p>
- <p> Derived Work must provide sufficient documentation as part of</p>
- <p> itself to allow each recipient of that Derived Work to honor the</p>
- <p> restrictions in Clause 6 above, concerning changes from the Work.</p>
- <p> </p>
- <p>11. This license places no restrictions on works that are unrelated to</p>
- <p>the Work, nor does this license place any restrictions on aggregating</p>
- <p>such works with the Work by any means.</p>
- <p> </p>
- <p>12. Nothing in this license is intended to, or may be used to, prevent</p>
- <p>complete compliance by all parties with all applicable laws.</p>
- <p> </p>
- <p> </p>
- <p>NO WARRANTY</p>
- <p>===========</p>
- <p> </p>
- <p>There is no warranty for the Work. Except when otherwise stated in</p>
- <p>writing, the Copyright Holder provides the Work `as is', without</p>
- <p>warranty of any kind, either expressed or implied, including, but not</p>
- <p>limited to, the implied warranties of merchantability and fitness for a</p>
- <p>particular purpose. The entire risk as to the quality and performance</p>
- <p>of the Work is with you. Should the Work prove defective, you assume</p>
- <p>the cost of all necessary servicing, repair, or correction.</p>
- <p> </p>
- <p>In no event unless required by applicable law or agreed to in writing</p>
- <p>will The Copyright Holder, or any author named in the components of the</p>
- <p>Work, or any other party who may distribute and/or modify the Work as</p>
- <p>permitted above, be liable to you for damages, including any general,</p>
- <p>special, incidental or consequential damages arising out of any use of</p>
- <p>the Work or out of inability to use the Work (including, but not limited</p>
- <p>to, loss of data, data being rendered inaccurate, or losses sustained by</p>
- <p>anyone as a result of any failure of the Work to operate with any other</p>
- <p>programs), even if the Copyright Holder or said author or said other</p>
- <p>party has been advised of the possibility of such damages.</p>
- <p> </p>
- <p> </p>
- <p>MAINTENANCE OF THE WORK</p>
- <p>=======================</p>
- <p> </p>
- <p>The Work has the status `author-maintained' if the Copyright Holder</p>
- <p>explicitly and prominently states near the primary copyright notice in</p>
- <p>the Work that the Work can only be maintained by the Copyright Holder</p>
- <p>or simply that it is `author-maintained'.</p>
- <p> </p>
- <p>The Work has the status `maintained' if there is a Current Maintainer</p>
- <p>who has indicated in the Work that they are willing to receive error</p>
- <p>reports for the Work (for example, by supplying a valid e-mail</p>
- <p>address). It is not required for the Current Maintainer to acknowledge</p>
- <p>or act upon these error reports.</p>
- <p> </p>
- <p>The Work changes from status `maintained' to `unmaintained' if there</p>
- <p>is no Current Maintainer, or the person stated to be Current</p>
- <p>Maintainer of the work cannot be reached through the indicated means</p>
- <p>of communication for a period of six months, and there are no other</p>
- <p>significant signs of active maintenance.</p>
- <p> </p>
- <p>You can become the Current Maintainer of the Work by agreement with</p>
- <p>any existing Current Maintainer to take over this role.</p>
- <p> </p>
- <p>If the Work is unmaintained, you can become the Current Maintainer of</p>
- <p>the Work through the following steps:</p>
- <p> </p>
- <p> 1. Make a reasonable attempt to trace the Current Maintainer (and</p>
- <p> the Copyright Holder, if the two differ) through the means of</p>
- <p> an Internet or similar search.</p>
- <p> </p>
- <p> 2. If this search is successful, then enquire whether the Work</p>
- <p> is still maintained.</p>
- <p> </p>
- <p> a. If it is being maintained, then ask the Current Maintainer</p>
- <p> to update their communication data within one month.</p>
- <p> </p>
- <p> b. If the search is unsuccessful or no action to resume active</p>
- <p> maintenance is taken by the Current Maintainer, then announce</p>
- <p> within the pertinent community your intention to take over</p>
- <p> maintenance. (If the Work is a LaTeX work, this could be</p>
- <p> done, for example, by posting to comp.text.tex.)</p>
- <p> </p>
- <p> 3a. If the Current Maintainer is reachable and agrees to pass</p>
- <p> maintenance of the Work to you, then this takes effect</p>
- <p> immediately upon announcement.</p>
- <p> </p>
- <p> b. If the Current Maintainer is not reachable and the Copyright</p>
- <p> Holder agrees that maintenance of the Work be passed to you,</p>
- <p> then this takes effect immediately upon announcement. </p>
- <p> </p>
- <p> 4. If you make an `intention announcement' as described in 2b. above</p>
- <p> and after three months your intention is challenged neither by</p>
- <p> the Current Maintainer nor by the Copyright Holder nor by other</p>
- <p> people, then you may arrange for the Work to be changed so as</p>
- <p> to name you as the (new) Current Maintainer.</p>
- <p> </p>
- <p> 5. If the previously unreachable Current Maintainer becomes</p>
- <p> reachable once more within three months of a change completed</p>
- <p> under the terms of 3b) or 4), then that Current Maintainer must</p>
- <p> become or remain the Current Maintainer upon request provided</p>
- <p> they then update their communication data within one month.</p>
- <p> </p>
- <p>A change in the Current Maintainer does not, of itself, alter the fact</p>
- <p>that the Work is distributed under the LPPL license.</p>
- <p> </p>
- <p>If you become the Current Maintainer of the Work, you should</p>
- <p>immediately provide, within the Work, a prominent and unambiguous</p>
- <p>statement of your status as Current Maintainer. You should also</p>
- <p>announce your new status to the same pertinent community as</p>
- <p>in 2b) above.</p>
- <p> </p>
- <p> </p>
- <p>WHETHER AND HOW TO DISTRIBUTE WORKS UNDER THIS LICENSE</p>
- <p>======================================================</p>
- <p> </p>
- <p>This section contains important instructions, examples, and</p>
- <p>recommendations for authors who are considering distributing their</p>
- <p>works under this license. These authors are addressed as `you' in</p>
- <p>this section.</p>
- <p> </p>
- <p>Choosing This License or Another License</p>
- <p>----------------------------------------</p>
- <p>If for any part of your work you want or need to use *distribution*</p>
- <p>conditions that differ significantly from those in this license, then</p>
- <p>do not refer to this license anywhere in your work but, instead,</p>
- <p>distribute your work under a different license. You may use the text</p>
- <p>of this license as a model for your own license, but your license</p>
- <p>should not refer to the LPPL or otherwise give the impression that</p>
- <p>your work is distributed under the LPPL.</p>
- <p> </p>
- <p>The document `modguide.tex' in the base LaTeX distribution explains</p>
- <p>the motivation behind the conditions of this license. It explains,</p>
- <p>for example, why distributing LaTeX under the GNU General Public</p>
- <p>License (GPL) was considered inappropriate. Even if your work is</p>
- <p>unrelated to LaTeX, the discussion in `modguide.tex' may still be</p>
- <p>relevant, and authors intending to distribute their works under any</p>
- <p>license are encouraged to read it.</p>
- <p> </p>
- <p>A Recommendation on Modification Without Distribution</p>
- <p>-----------------------------------------------------</p>
- <p> </p>
- <p>It is wise never to modify a component of the Work, even for your own</p>
- <p>personal use, without also meeting the above conditions for</p>
- <p>distributing the modified component. While you might intend that such</p>
- <p>modifications will never be distributed, often this will happen by</p>
- <p>accident -- you may forget that you have modified that component; or</p>
- <p>it may not occur to you when allowing others to access the modified</p>
- <p>version that you are thus distributing it and violating the conditions</p>
- <p>of this license in ways that could have legal implications and, worse,</p>
- <p>cause problems for the community. It is therefore usually in your</p>
- <p>best interest to keep your copy of the Work identical with the public</p>
- <p>one. Many works provide ways to control the behavior of that work</p>
- <p>without altering any of its licensed components.</p>
- <p> </p>
- <p>How to Use This License</p>
- <p>-----------------------</p>
- <p> </p>
- <p>To use this license, place in each of the components of your work both</p>
- <p>an explicit copyright notice including your name and the year the work</p>
- <p>was authored and/or last substantially modified. Include also a</p>
- <p>statement that the distribution and/or modification of that</p>
- <p>component is constrained by the conditions in this license.</p>
- <p> </p>
- <p>Here is an example of such a notice and statement:</p>
- <p> </p>
- <p> %% pig.dtx</p>
- <p> %% Copyright 2005 M. Y. Name</p>
- <p> %</p>
- <p> % This work may be distributed and/or modified under the</p>
- <p> % conditions of the LaTeX Project Public License, either version 1.3</p>
- <p> % of this license or (at your option) any later version.</p>
- <p> % The latest version of this license is in</p>
- <p> % http://www.latex-project.org/lppl.txt</p>
- <p> % and version 1.3 or later is part of all distributions of LaTeX</p>
- <p> % version 2005/12/01 or later.</p>
- <p> %</p>
- <p> % This work has the LPPL maintenance status `maintained'.</p>
- <p> %</p>
- <p> % The Current Maintainer of this work is M. Y. Name.</p>
- <p> %</p>
- <p> % This work consists of the files pig.dtx and pig.ins</p>
- <p> % and the derived file pig.sty.</p>
- <p> </p>
- <p>Given such a notice and statement in a file, the conditions</p>
- <p>given in this license document would apply, with the `Work' referring</p>
- <p>to the three files `pig.dtx', `pig.ins', and `pig.sty' (the last being</p>
- <p>generated from `pig.dtx' using `pig.ins'), the `Base Interpreter'</p>
- <p>referring to any `LaTeX-Format', and both `Copyright Holder' and</p>
- <p>`Current Maintainer' referring to the person `M. Y. Name'.</p>
- <p> </p>
- <p>If you do not want the Maintenance section of LPPL to apply to your</p>
- <p>Work, change `maintained' above into `author-maintained'. </p>
- <p>However, we recommend that you use `maintained', as the Maintenance</p>
- <p>section was added in order to ensure that your Work remains useful to</p>
- <p>the community even when you can no longer maintain and support it</p>
- <p>yourself.</p>
- <p> </p>
- <p>Derived Works That Are Not Replacements</p>
- <p>---------------------------------------</p>
- <p> </p>
- <p>Several clauses of the LPPL specify means to provide reliability and</p>
- <p>stability for the user community. They therefore concern themselves</p>
- <p>with the case that a Derived Work is intended to be used as a</p>
- <p>(compatible or incompatible) replacement of the original Work. If</p>
- <p>this is not the case (e.g., if a few lines of code are reused for a</p>
- <p>completely different task), then clauses 6b and 6d shall not apply.</p>
- <p> </p>
- <p> </p>
- <p>Important Recommendations</p>
- <p>-------------------------</p>
- <p> </p>
- <p> Defining What Constitutes the Work</p>
- <p> </p>
- <p> The LPPL requires that distributions of the Work contain all the</p>
- <p> files of the Work. It is therefore important that you provide a</p>
- <p> way for the licensee to determine which files constitute the Work.</p>
- <p> This could, for example, be achieved by explicitly listing all the</p>
- <p> files of the Work near the copyright notice of each file or by</p>
- <p> using a line such as:</p>
- <p> </p>
- <p> % This work consists of all files listed in manifest.txt.</p>
- <p> </p>
- <p> in that place. In the absence of an unequivocal list it might be</p>
- <p> impossible for the licensee to determine what is considered by you</p>
- <p> to comprise the Work and, in such a case, the licensee would be</p>
- <p> entitled to make reasonable conjectures as to which files comprise</p>
- <p> the Work.</p>

+ <p>The LaTeX Project Public License (LPPL) is the primary license under which the LaTeX kernel and the base
+ LaTeX packages are distributed.</p>
+ <p>You may use this license for any work of which you hold the copyright and which you wish to distribute. This
+ license may be particularly suitable if your work is TeX-related (such as a LaTeX package), but it is written
+ in such a way that you can use it even if your work is unrelated to TeX.</p>
+ <p>The section `WHETHER AND HOW TO DISTRIBUTE WORKS UNDER THIS LICENSE', below, gives instructions, examples,
+ and recommendations for authors who are considering distributing their works under this license.</p>
+ <p>This license gives conditions under which a work may be distributed and modified, as well as conditions
+ under which modified versions of that work may be distributed.</p>
+ <p>We, the LaTeX3 Project, believe that the conditions below give you the freedom to make and distribute
+ modified versions of your work that conform with whatever technical specifications you wish while maintaining
+ the availability, integrity, and reliability of that work. If you do not see how to achieve your goal while
+ meeting these conditions, then read the document `cfgguide.tex' and `modguide.tex' in the base LaTeX
+ distribution for suggestions.</p>
+ <h2><a name="item2" id="item2">DEFINITIONS</a></h2>
+ <p>In this license document the following terms are used:</p>
+ <dl>
+ <dt>`Work'</dt>
+ <dd>Any work being distributed under this License.</dd>
+ <dt>`Derived Work'</dt>
+ <dd>Any work that under any applicable law is derived from the Work.</dd>
+ <dt>`Modification'</dt>
+ <dd>Any procedure that produces a Derived Work under any applicable law — for example, the production of
+ a file containing an original file associated with the Work or a significant portion of such a file, either
+ verbatim or with modifications and/or translated into another language.</dd>
+ <dt>`Modify'</dt>
+ <dd>To apply any procedure that produces a Derived Work under any applicable law.</dd>
+ <dt>`Distribution'</dt>
+ <dd>Making copies of the Work available from one person to another, in whole or in part. Distribution
+ includes (but is not limited to) making any electronic components of the Work accessible by file transfer
+ protocols such as FTP or HTTP or by shared file systems such as Sun's Network File System (NFS).</dd>
+ <dt>`Compiled Work'</dt>
+ <dd>A version of the Work that has been processed into a form where it is directly usable on a computer
+ system. This processing may include using installation facilities provided by the Work, transformations of
+ the Work, copying of components of the Work, or other activities. Note that modification of any
+ installation facilities provided by the Work constitutes modification of the Work.</dd>
+ <dt>`Current Maintainer'</dt>
+ <dd>A person or persons nominated as such within the Work. If there is no such explicit nomination then it
+ is the `Copyright Holder' under any applicable law.</dd>
+ <dt>`Base Interpreter'</dt>
+ <dd>A program or process that is normally needed for running or interpreting a part or the whole of the
+ Work.<br />
+ <br />
+ A Base Interpreter may depend on external components but these are not considered part of the Base
+ Interpreter provided that each external component clearly identifies itself whenever it is used
+ interactively. Unless explicitly specified when applying the license to the Work, the only applicable Base
+ Interpreter is a `LaTeX-Format' or in the case of files belonging to the `LaTeX-format' a program
+ implementing the `TeX language'.</dd>
+ </dl>
+ <h2><a name="item3" id="item3">CONDITIONS ON DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION</a></h2>
+ <ol>
+ <li>Activities other than distribution and/or modification of the Work are not covered by this license;
+ they are outside its scope. In particular, the act of running the Work is not restricted and no
+ requirements are made concerning any offers of support for the Work.</li>
+ <li>You may distribute a complete, unmodified copy of the Work as you received it. Distribution of only
+ part of the Work is considered modification of the Work, and no right to distribute such a Derived Work may
+ be assumed under the terms of this clause.</li>
+ <li>You may distribute a Compiled Work that has been generated from a complete, unmodified copy of the Work
+ as distributed under Clause 2 above, as long as that Compiled Work is distributed in such a way that the
+ recipients may install the Compiled Work on their system exactly as it would have been installed if they
+ generated a Compiled Work directly from the Work.</li>
+ <li>If you are the Current Maintainer of the Work, you may, without restriction, modify the Work, thus
+ creating a Derived Work. You may also distribute the Derived Work without restriction, including Compiled
+ Works generated from the Derived Work. Derived Works distributed in this manner by the Current Maintainer
+ are considered to be updated versions of the Work.</li>
+ <li>If you are not the Current Maintainer of the Work, you may modify your copy of the Work, thus creating
+ a Derived Work based on the Work, and compile this Derived Work, thus creating a Compiled Work based on the
+ Derived Work.</li>
+ <li>If you are not the Current Maintainer of the Work, you may distribute a Derived Work provided the
+ following conditions are met for every component of the Work unless that component clearly states in the
+ copyright notice that it is exempt from that condition. Only the Current Maintainer is allowed to add such
+ statements of exemption to a component of the Work.
+ <ol>
+ <li>If a component of this Derived Work can be a direct replacement for a component of the Work
+ when that component is used with the Base Interpreter, then, wherever this component of the Work
+ identifies itself to the user when used interactively with that Base Interpreter, the replacement
+ component of this Derived Work clearly and unambiguously identifies itself as a modified version of
+ this component to the user when used interactively with that Base Interpreter.</li>
+ <li>Every component of the Derived Work contains prominent notices detailing the nature of the
+ changes to that component, or a prominent reference to another file that is distributed as part of
+ the Derived Work and that contains a complete and accurate log of the changes.</li>
+ <li>No information in the Derived Work implies that any persons, including (but not limited to) the
+ authors of the original version of the Work, provide any support, including (but not limited to)
+ the reporting and handling of errors, to recipients of the Derived Work unless those persons have
+ stated explicitly that they do provide such support for the Derived Work.</li>
+ <li>You distribute at least one of the following with the Derived Work:
+ <ol>
+ <li>A complete, unmodified copy of the Work; if your distribution of a modified component
+ is made by offering access to copy the modified component from a designated place, then
+ offering equivalent access to copy the Work from the same or some similar place meets this
+ condition, even though third parties are not compelled to copy the Work along with the
+ modified component;</li>
+ <li>Information that is sufficient to obtain a complete, unmodified copy of the Work.</li>
+ </ol>
+ </li>
+ </ol>
+ </li>
+ <li>If you are not the Current Maintainer of the Work, you may distribute a Compiled Work generated from a
+ Derived Work, as long as the Derived Work is distributed to all recipients of the Compiled Work, and as
+ long as the conditions of Clause 6, above, are met with regard to the Derived Work.</li>
+ <li>The conditions above are not intended to prohibit, and hence do not apply to, the modification, by any
+ method, of any component so that it becomes identical to an updated version of that component of the Work
+ as it is distributed by the Current Maintainer under Clause 4, above.</li>
+ <li>Distribution of the Work or any Derived Work in an alternative format, where the Work or that Derived
+ Work (in whole or in part) is then produced by applying some process to that format, does not relax or
+ nullify any sections of this license as they pertain to the results of applying that process.</li>
+ <li>
+ <ol>
+ <li>A Derived Work may be distributed under a different license provided that license itself honors
+ the conditions listed in Clause 6 above, in regard to the Work, though it does not have to honor
+ the rest of the conditions in this license.</li>
+ <li>If a Derived Work is distributed under a different license, that Derived Work must provide
+ sufficient documentation as part of itself to allow each recipient of that Derived Work to honor
+ the restrictions in Clause 6 above, concerning changes from the Work.</li>
+ </ol>
+ </li>
+ <li>This license places no restrictions on works that are unrelated to the Work, nor does this license
+ place any restrictions on aggregating such works with the Work by any means.</li>
+ <li>Nothing in this license is intended to, or may be used to, prevent complete compliance by all parties
+ with all applicable laws.</li>
+ </ol>
+ <h2><a name="item4" id="item4">NO WARRANTY</a></h2>
+ <p>There is no warranty for the Work. Except when otherwise stated in writing, the Copyright Holder provides
+ the Work `as is', without warranty of any kind, either expressed or implied, including, but not limited to, the
+ implied warranties of merchantability and fitness for a particular purpose. The entire risk as to the quality
+ and performance of the Work is with you. Should the Work prove defective, you assume the cost of all necessary
+ servicing, repair, or correction.</p>
+ <p>In no event unless required by applicable law or agreed to in writing will The Copyright Holder, or any
+ author named in the components of the Work, or any other party who may distribute and/or modify the Work as
+ permitted above, be liable to you for damages, including any general, special, incidental or consequential
+ damages arising out of any use of the Work or out of inability to use the Work (including, but not limited to,
+ loss of data, data being rendered inaccurate, or losses sustained by anyone as a result of any failure of the
+ Work to operate with any other programs), even if the Copyright Holder or said author or said other party has
+ been advised of the possibility of such damages.</p>
+ <h2><a name="item5" id="item5">MAINTENANCE OF THE WORK</a></h2>
+ <p>The Work has the status `author-maintained' if the Copyright Holder explicitly and prominently states near
+ the primary copyright notice in the Work that the Work can only be maintained by the Copyright Holder or simply
+ that it is `author-maintained'.</p>
+ <p>The Work has the status `maintained' if there is a Current Maintainer who has indicated in the Work that
+ they are willing to receive error reports for the Work (for example, by supplying a valid e-mail address). It
+ is not required for the Current Maintainer to acknowledge or act upon these error reports.</p>
+ <p>The Work changes from status `maintained' to `unmaintained' if there is no Current Maintainer, or the person
+ stated to be Current Maintainer of the work cannot be reached through the indicated means of communication for
+ a period of six months, and there are no other significant signs of active maintenance.</p>
+ <p>You can become the Current Maintainer of the Work by agreement with any existing Current Maintainer to take
+ over this role.</p>
+ <p>If the Work is unmaintained, you can become the Current Maintainer of the Work through the following
+ steps:</p>
+ <ol>
+ <li>Make a reasonable attempt to trace the Current Maintainer (and the Copyright Holder, if the two differ)
+ through the means of an Internet or similar search.</li>
+ <li>If this search is successful, then enquire whether the Work is still maintained.
+ <ol>
+ <li>If it is being maintained, then ask the Current Maintainer to update their communication data
+ within one month.</li>
+ <li>If the search is unsuccessful or no action to resume active maintenance is taken by the Current
+ Maintainer, then announce within the pertinent community your intention to take over maintenance.
+ (If the Work is a LaTeX work, this could be done, for example, by posting to comp.text.tex.)</li>
+ </ol>
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ <ol>
+ <li>If the Current Maintainer is reachable and agrees to pass maintenance of the Work to you, then
+ this takes effect immediately upon announcement.</li>
+ <li>If the Current Maintainer is not reachable and the Copyright Holder agrees that maintenance of
+ the Work be passed to you, then this takes effect immediately upon announcement.</li>
+ </ol>
+ </li>
+ <li>If you make an `intention announcement' as described in 2b. above and after three months your intention
+ is challenged neither by the Current Maintainer nor by the Copyright Holder nor by other people, then you
+ may arrange for the Work to be changed so as to name you as the (new) Current Maintainer.</li>
+ <li>If the previously unreachable Current Maintainer becomes reachable once more within three months of a
+ change completed under the terms of 3b) or 4), then that Current Maintainer must become or remain the
+ Current Maintainer upon request provided they then update their communication data within one month.</li>
+ </ol>
+ <p>A change in the Current Maintainer does not, of itself, alter the fact that the Work is distributed under
+ the LPPL license.</p>
+ <p>If you become the Current Maintainer of the Work, you should immediately provide, within the Work, a
+ prominent and unambiguous statement of your status as Current Maintainer. You should also announce your new
+ status to the same pertinent community as in 2b) above.</p>
+ <h2><a name="item6" id="item6">WHETHER AND HOW TO DISTRIBUTE WORKS UNDER THIS LICENSE</a></h2>
+ <p>This section contains important instructions, examples, and recommendations for authors who are considering
+ distributing their works under this license. These authors are addressed as `you' in this section.</p>
+ <h3>Choosing This License or Another License</h3>
+ <p>If for any part of your work you want or need to use *distribution* conditions that differ significantly
+ from those in this license, then do not refer to this license anywhere in your work but, instead, distribute
+ your work under a different license. You may use the text of this license as a model for your own license, but
+ your license should not refer to the LPPL or otherwise give the impression that your work is distributed under
+ the LPPL.</p>
+ <p>The document `modguide.tex' in the base LaTeX distribution explains the motivation behind the conditions of
+ this license. It explains, for example, why distributing LaTeX under the GNU General Public License (GPL) was
+ considered inappropriate. Even if your work is unrelated to LaTeX, the discussion in `modguide.tex' may still
+ be relevant, and authors intending to distribute their works under any license are encouraged to read it.</p>
+ <h3>A Recommendation on Modification Without Distribution</h3>
+ <p>It is wise never to modify a component of the Work, even for your own personal use, without also meeting the
+ above conditions for distributing the modified component. While you might intend that such modifications will
+ never be distributed, often this will happen by accident — you may forget that you have modified that
+ component; or it may not occur to you when allowing others to access the modified version that you are thus
+ distributing it and violating the conditions of this license in ways that could have legal implications and,
+ worse, cause problems for the community. It is therefore usually in your best interest to keep your copy of the
+ Work identical with the public one. Many works provide ways to control the behavior of that work without
+ altering any of its licensed components.</p>
+ <h3>How to Use This License</h3>
+ <p>To use this license, place in each of the components of your work both an explicit copyright notice
+ including your name and the year the work was authored and/or last substantially modified. Include also a
+ statement that the distribution and/or modification of that component is constrained by the conditions in this
+ license.</p>
+ <p>Here is an example of such a notice and statement:</p>
+ <pre>
+ %% pig.dtx
+ %% Copyright 2005 M. Y. Name
+ %
+ % This work may be distributed and/or modified under the
+ % conditions of the LaTeX Project Public License, either version 1.3
+ % of this license or (at your option) any later version.
+ % The latest version of this license is in
+ % http://www.latex-project.org/lppl.txt
+ % and version 1.3 or later is part of all distributions of LaTeX
+ % version 2005/12/01 or later.
+ %
+ % This work has the LPPL maintenance status `maintained'.
+ %
+ % The Current Maintainer of this work is M. Y. Name.
+ %
+ % This work consists of the files pig.dtx and pig.ins
+ % and the derived file pig.sty.
+</pre>
+ <p>Given such a notice and statement in a file, the conditions given in this license document would apply, with
+ the `Work' referring to the three files `pig.dtx', `pig.ins', and `pig.sty' (the last being generated from
+ `pig.dtx' using `pig.ins'), the `Base Interpreter' referring to any `LaTeX-Format', and both `Copyright Holder'
+ and `Current Maintainer' referring to the person `M. Y. Name'.</p>
+ <p>If you do not want the Maintenance section of LPPL to apply to your Work, change `maintained' above into
+ `author-maintained'. However, we recommend that you use `maintained', as the Maintenance section was added in
+ order to ensure that your Work remains useful to the community even when you can no longer maintain and support
+ it yourself.</p>
+ <h3>Derived Works That Are Not Replacements</h3>
+ <p>Several clauses of the LPPL specify means to provide reliability and stability for the user community. They
+ therefore concern themselves with the case that a Derived Work is intended to be used as a (compatible or
+ incompatible) replacement of the original Work. If this is not the case (e.g., if a few lines of code are
+ reused for a completely different task), then clauses 6b and 6d shall not apply.</p>
+ <h3>Important Recommendations</h3>
+ <h4>Defining What Constitutes the Work</h4>
+ <p>The LPPL requires that distributions of the Work contain all the files of the Work. It is therefore
+ important that you provide a way for the licensee to determine which files constitute the Work. This could, for
+ example, be achieved by explicitly listing all the files of the Work near the copyright notice of each file or
+ by using a line such as:</p>
+ <pre>
+ % This work consists of all files listed in manifest.txt.
+</pre>
+ <p>in that place. In the absence of an unequivocal list it might be impossible for the licensee to determine
+ what is considered by you to comprise the Work and, in such a case, the licensee would be entitled to make
+ reasonable conjectures as to which files comprise the Work.</p>
