  CREATIVE COMMONS CORPORATION IS NOT A LAW FIRM AND DOES NOT PROVIDE
  LEGAL SERVICES. DISTRIBUTION OF THIS LICENSE DOES NOT CREATE AN
  ATTORNEY-CLIENT RELATIONSHIP. CREATIVE COMMONS PROVIDES THIS INFORMATION
  ON AN "AS-IS" BASIS. CREATIVE COMMONS MAKES NO WARRANTIES REGARDING THE
  INFORMATION PROVIDED, AND DISCLAIMS LIABILITY FOR DAMAGES RESULTING FROM
  ITS USE. 

  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 OR COPYRIGHT LAW IS PROHIBITED.

  BY EXERCISING ANY RIGHTS TO THE WORK PROVIDED HERE, YOU ACCEPT AND AGREE
  TO BE BOUND BY THE TERMS OF THIS LICENSE. TO THE EXTENT THIS LICENSE MAY
  BE CONSIDERED TO BE A CONTRACT, THE LICENSOR GRANTS YOU THE RIGHTS
  CONTAINED HERE IN CONSIDERATION OF YOUR ACCEPTANCE OF SUCH TERMS AND
  CONDITIONS.

  1. Definitions

     1. "Adaptation" means a work based upon the Work, or upon the Work
  and other pre-existing works, such as a translation, adaptation,
  derivative work, arrangement of music or other alterations of a literary
  or artistic work, or phonogram or performance and includes
  cinematographic adaptations or any other form in which the Work may be
  recast, transformed, or adapted including in any form recognizably
  derived from the original, except that a work that constitutes a
  Collection will not be considered an Adaptation for the purpose of this
  License. For the avoidance of doubt, where the Work is a musical work,
  performance or phonogram, the synchronization of the Work in
  timed-relation with a moving image ("synching") will be considered an
  Adaptation for the purpose of this License.

     2. "Collection" means a collection of literary or artistic works,
  such as encyclopedias and anthologies, or performances, phonograms or
  broadcasts, or other works or subject matter other than works listed in
  Section 1(f) below, which, by reason of the selection and arrangement of
  their contents, constitute intellectual creations, in which the Work is
  included in its entirety in unmodified form along with one or more other
  contributions, each constituting separate and independent works in
  themselves, which together are assembled into a collective whole. A work
  that constitutes a Collection will not be considered an Adaptation (as
  defined above) for the purposes of this License.

     3. "Distribute" means to make available to the public the original
  and copies of the Work or Adaptation, as appropriate, through sale or
  other transfer of ownership.

     4. "Licensor" means the individual, individuals, entity or entities
  that offer(s) the Work under the terms of this License.

     5. "Original Author" means, in the case of a literary or artistic
  work, the individual, individuals, entity or entities who created the
  Work or if no individual or entity can be identified, the publisher; and
  in addition (i) in the case of a performance the actors, singers,
  musicians, dancers, and other persons who act, sing, deliver, declaim,
  play in, interpret or otherwise perform literary or artistic works or
  expressions of folklore; (ii) in the case of a phonogram the producer
  being the person or legal entity who first fixes the sounds of a
  performance or other sounds; and, (iii) in the case of broadcasts, the
  organization that transmits the broadcast.

     6. "Work" means the literary and/or artistic work offered under the
  terms of this License including without limitation any production in the
  literary, scientific and artistic domain, whatever may be the mode or
  form of its expression including digital form, such as a book, pamphlet
  and other writing; a lecture, address, sermon or other work of the same
  nature; a dramatic or dramatico-musical work; a choreographic work or
  entertainment in dumb show; a musical composition with or without words;
  a cinematographic work to which are assimilated works expressed by a
  process analogous to cinematography; a work of drawing, painting,
  architecture, sculpture, engraving or lithography; a photographic work
  to which are assimilated works expressed by a process analogous to
  photography; a work of applied art; an illustration, map, plan, sketch
  or three-dimensional work relative to geography, topography,
  architecture or science; a performance; a broadcast; a phonogram; a
  compilation of data to the extent it is protected as a copyrightable
  work; or a work performed by a variety or circus performer to the extent
  it is not otherwise considered a literary or artistic work.

     7. "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.

     8. "Publicly Perform" means to perform public recitations of the Work
  and to communicate to the public those public recitations, by any means
  or process, including by wire or wireless means or public digital
  performances; to make available to the public Works in such a way that
  members of the public may access these Works from a place and at a place
  individually chosen by them; to perform the Work to the public by any
  means or process and the communication to the public of the performances
  of the Work, including by public digital performance; to broadcast and
  rebroadcast the Work by any means including signs, sounds or images.

     9. "Reproduce" means to make copies of the Work by any means
  including without limitation by sound or visual recordings and the right
  of fixation and reproducing fixations of the Work, including storage of
  a protected performance or phonogram in digital form or other electronic
  medium.

  2. Fair Dealing Rights. Nothing in this License is intended to reduce,
  limit, or restrict any uses free from copyright or rights arising from
  limitations or exceptions that are provided for in connection with the
  copyright protection 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
  Collections, and to Reproduce the Work as incorporated in the
  Collections;

     2. to create and Reproduce Adaptations provided that any such
  Adaptation, including any translation in any medium, takes reasonable
  steps to clearly label, demarcate or otherwise identify that changes
  were made to the original Work. For example, a translation could be
  marked "The original work was translated from English to Spanish," or a
  modification could indicate "The original work has been modified.";

     3. to Distribute and Publicly Perform the Work including as
  incorporated in Collections; and,

     4. to Distribute and Publicly Perform Adaptations.

     5.  For the avoidance of doubt:

	   1. Non-waivable Compulsory License Schemes. In those
  jurisdictions in which the right to collect royalties through any
  statutory or compulsory licensing scheme cannot be waived, the Licensor
  reserves the exclusive right to collect such royalties for any exercise
  by You of the rights granted under this License;

	   2. Waivable Compulsory License Schemes. In those jurisdictions
  in which the right to collect royalties through any statutory or
  compulsory licensing scheme can be waived, the Licensor waives the
  exclusive right to collect such royalties for any exercise by You of the
  rights granted under this License; and,

	   3. Voluntary License Schemes. The Licensor waives the right to
  collect royalties, whether individually or, in the event that the
  Licensor is a member of a collecting society that administers voluntary
  licensing schemes, via that society, from any exercise by You of the
  rights granted under this License.

  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. Subject to Section 8(f), 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 or Publicly Perform the Work only under the
  terms of this License. You must include a copy of, or the Uniform
  Resource Identifier (URI) for, this License with every copy of the Work
  You Distribute or Publicly Perform. You may not offer or impose any
  terms on the Work that restrict the terms of this License or the ability
  of the recipient of the Work to exercise the rights granted to that
  recipient under the terms of the License. You may not sublicense the
  Work. You must keep intact all notices that refer to this License and to
  the disclaimer of warranties with every copy of the Work You Distribute
  or Publicly Perform. When You Distribute or Publicly Perform the Work,
  You may not impose any effective technological measures on the Work that
  restrict the ability of a recipient of the Work from You to exercise the
  rights granted to that recipient under the terms of the License. This
  Section 4(a) applies to the Work as incorporated in a Collection, but
  this does not require the Collection apart from the Work itself to be
  made subject to the terms of this License. If You create a Collection,
  upon notice from any Licensor You must, to the extent practicable,
  remove from the Collection any credit as required by Section 4(b), as
  requested. If You create an Adaptation, upon notice from any Licensor
  You must, to the extent practicable, remove from the Adaptation any
  credit as required by Section 4(b), as requested.

     2. If You Distribute, or Publicly Perform the Work or any Adaptations
  or Collections, You must, unless a request has been made pursuant to
  Section 4(a), keep intact all copyright notices for the Work and
  provide, reasonable to the medium or means You are utilizing: (i) the
  name of the Original Author (or pseudonym, if applicable) if supplied,
  and/or if the Original Author and/or Licensor designate another party or
  parties (e.g., a sponsor institute, publishing entity, journal) for
  attribution ("Attribution Parties") in Licensor's copyright notice,
  terms of service or by other reasonable means, the name of such party or
  parties; (ii) the title of the Work if supplied; (iii) to the extent
  reasonably practicable, the URI, if any, that Licensor specifies to be
  associated with the Work, unless such URI does not refer to the
  copyright notice or licensing information for the Work; and (iv) ,
  consistent with Section 3(b), in the case of an Adaptation, a credit
  identifying the use of the Work in the Adaptation (e.g., "French
  translation of the Work by Original Author," or "Screenplay based on
  original Work by Original Author"). The credit required by this Section
  4 (b) may be implemented in any reasonable manner; provided, however,
  that in the case of a Adaptation or Collection, at a minimum such credit
  will appear, if a credit for all contributing authors of the Adaptation
  or Collection appears, then as part of these credits and in a manner at
  least as prominent as the credits for the other contributing authors.
  For the avoidance of doubt, You may only use the credit required by this
  Section for the purpose of attribution in the manner set out above and,
  by exercising Your rights under this License, You may not implicitly or
  explicitly assert or imply any connection with, sponsorship or
  endorsement by the Original Author, Licensor and/or Attribution Parties,
  as appropriate, of You or Your use of the Work, without the separate,
  express prior written permission of the Original Author, Licensor and/or
  Attribution Parties.

     3. Except as otherwise agreed in writing by the Licensor or as may be
  otherwise permitted by applicable law, if You Reproduce, Distribute or
  Publicly Perform the Work either by itself or as part of any Adaptations
  or Collections, You must not distort, mutilate, modify or take other
  derogatory action in relation to the Work which would be prejudicial to
  the Original Author's honor or reputation. Licensor agrees that in those
  jurisdictions (e.g. Japan), in which any exercise of the right granted
  in Section 3(b) of this License (the right to make Adaptations) would be
  deemed to be a distortion, mutilation, modification or other derogatory
  action prejudicial to the Original Author's honor and reputation, the
  Licensor will waive or not assert, as appropriate, this Section, to the
  fullest extent permitted by the applicable national law, to enable You
  to reasonably exercise Your right under Section 3(b) of this License
  (right to make Adaptations) but not otherwise.

  5. Representations, Warranties and Disclaimer

  UNLESS OTHERWISE MUTUALLY AGREED TO BY THE PARTIES IN WRITING, LICENSOR
  OFFERS THE WORK AS-IS AND MAKES NO REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES OF ANY
  KIND CONCERNING THE WORK, EXPRESS, IMPLIED, STATUTORY OR OTHERWISE,
  INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, WARRANTIES OF TITLE, MERCHANTIBILITY,
  FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NONINFRINGEMENT, OR THE ABSENCE OF
  LATENT OR OTHER DEFECTS, ACCURACY, OR THE PRESENCE OF ABSENCE OF ERRORS,
  WHETHER OR NOT DISCOVERABLE. SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE
  EXCLUSION OF IMPLIED WARRANTIES, SO SUCH EXCLUSION MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.

  6. Limitation on Liability. EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE
  LAW, IN NO EVENT WILL LICENSOR BE LIABLE TO YOU ON ANY LEGAL THEORY FOR
  ANY SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, PUNITIVE OR EXEMPLARY 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 Adaptations or Collections
  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 Perform the Work or a
  Collection, 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 Perform an Adaptation,
  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.

     6. The rights granted under, and the subject matter referenced, in
  this License were drafted utilizing the terminology of the Berne
  Convention for the Protection of Literary and Artistic Works (as amended
  on September 28, 1979), the Rome Convention of 1961, the WIPO Copyright
  Treaty of 1996, the WIPO Performances and Phonograms Treaty of 1996 and
  the Universal Copyright Convention (as revised on July 24, 1971). These
  rights and subject matter take effect in the relevant jurisdiction in
  which the License terms are sought to be enforced according to the
  corresponding provisions of the implementation of those treaty
  provisions in the applicable national law. If the standard suite of
  rights granted under applicable copyright law includes additional rights
  not granted under this License, such additional rights are deemed to be
  included in the License; this License is not intended to restrict the
  license of any rights under applicable law.

  license. Notwithstanding the foregoing two (2) sentences, if Creative

  shall have all rights and obligations of Licensor.

Torsten Werner <twerner@debian.org> has got the following emails from
Brian Goetz about the license change to CC 3.0:

  From: Brian Goetz <brian@briangoetz.com>

  I don't have any problem with the Attribution-ShareAlike 3.0 license.

  I do have to say, though, that collectively, I find the open-source
  community to be quite difficult in the near-religious degree over which
  licenses are "good" enough.  Over the past twenty years, I've been
  involved in dozens of open-source projects, some of my own creation,
  some as minor contributors. And in nearly every one, *someone* has
  written and asked (or worse, demanded) to change the license because it
  is a "bad" license choice in some way. Everyone has their own reasons
  and priorities, but the whole thing tends to leave me with that "no good
  deed goes unpunished" feeling -- that I've tried to give something to
  the world for free, but it somehow isn't enough.

  I offer these thoughts not as a personal criticism, as I know you are
  contributing your effort for the good of the world as well and simply
  trying to follow the policies of your community, but in the hopes that
  you will consider the ways in which the obsession over which licenses
  are "pure" enough hurts the entire OSS community, and maybe pass these
  concerns on to those who are making this particular bit of trouble.
  (The OSS community reminds me of the bit in Monty Python's "Life of
  Brian", where the various revolutionary groups are so focused on
  undermining each other, that they forget that their common enemy is the
  Romans.)
