+ VERSIONS</title>
+
+ <simpara>
+ The Open Publication works may be reproduced and distributed in
+ whole or in part, in any medium physical or electronic, provided
+ that the terms of this license are adhered to, and that this license
+ or an incorporation of it by reference (with any options elected by
+ the author(s) and/or publisher) is displayed in the reproduction.
+ </simpara>
+
+ <simpara>
+ Proper form for an incorporation by reference is as follows:
+ </simpara>
+
+ <para>
+ Copyright (c) &lt;year&gt; by &lt;author's name or designee&gt;.
+ This material may be distributed only subject to the terms and
+ conditions set forth in the Open Publication License, vX.Y or later
+ (the latest version is presently available at <ulink
+ url="&url.opl;">&url.opl;</ulink>
+ </para>
+
+ <simpara>
+ The reference must be immediately followed with any options elected
+ by the author(s) and/or publisher of the document (see section
+ VI). Commercial redistribution of Open Publication-licensed material
+ is permitted. Any publication in standard (paper) book form shall
+ require the citation of the original publisher and author. The
+ publisher and author's names shall appear on all outer surfaces of
+ the book. On all outer surfaces of the book the original publisher's
+ name shall be as large as the title of the work and cited as
+ possessive with respect to the title.

+ <simpara>
+ The following license terms apply to all Open Publication works,
+ unless otherwise explicitly stated in the document.
+ </simpara>
+
+ <simpara>
+ Mere aggregation of Open Publication works or a portion of an Open
+ Publication work with other works or programs on the same media
+ shall not cause this license to apply to those other works. The
+ aggregate work shall contain a notice specifying the inclusion of
+ the Open Publication material and appropriate copyright notice.
+ </simpara>
+
+ <simpara>
+ SEVERABILITY. If any part of this license is found to be
+ unenforceable in any jurisdiction, the remaining portions of the
+ license remain in force.
+ </simpara>
+
+ <simpara>
+ NO WARRANTY. Open Publication works are licensed and provided "as
+ is" without warranty of any kind, express or implied, including, but

+ In addition to the requirements of this license, it is requested
+ from and strongly recommended of redistributors that:
+ </simpara>
+
+ <para>
+ <orderedlist>
+ <listitem>
+ <simpara>
+ If you are distributing Open Publication works on hardcopy or
+ CD-ROM, you provide email notification to the authors of your
+ intent to redistribute at least thirty days before your
+ manuscript or media freeze, to give the authors time to
+ provide updated documents. This notification should describe

+ Finally, while it is not mandatory under this license, it is

+ <title>VI. LICENSE OPTIONS</title>
+
+ <simpara>
+ The author(s) and/or publisher of an Open Publication-licensed

+
+ <simpara>
+ A. To prohibit distribution of substantively modified versions
+ without the explicit permission of the author(s). "Substantive
+ modification" is defined as a change to the semantic content of the
+ document, and excludes mere changes in format or typographical
+ corrections.
+ </simpara>
+
+ <simpara>
+ To accomplish this, add the phrase `Distribution of substantively
+ modified versions of this document is prohibited without the
+ explicit permission of the copyright holder.' to the license
+ reference or copy.
+ </simpara>
+
+ <simpara>
+ B. To prohibit any publication of this work or derivative works in
+ whole or in part in standard (paper) book form for commercial
+ purposes is prohibited unless prior permission is obtained from the
