| ____________________________________ |
| |
| This formulation of W3C's notice and license became active on December |
| 31 2002. This version removes the copyright ownership notice such that |
| this license can be used with materials other than those owned by the |
| W3C, reflects that ERCIM is now a host of the W3C, includes references |
| to this specific dated version of the license, and removes the |
| ambiguous grant of "use". Otherwise, this version is the same as the |
| [3]previous version and is written so as to preserve the [4]Free |
| Software Foundation's assessment of GPL compatibility and [5]OSI's |
| certification under the [6]Open Source Definition. Please see our |
| [7]Copyright FAQ for common questions about using materials from our |
| site, including specific terms and conditions for packages like |
| libwww, Amaya, and Jigsaw. Other questions about this notice can be |
| directed to [8]site-policy@w3.org. |
