| mechanism generally accepted for the electronic transfer of data. </p> |
| <p></p> |
| <p><strong>1.5. "Initial Writer"</strong> means the individual or entity |

| method now known or later discovered, and to sublicense the foregoing rights |
| to third parties through multiple tiers of sublicensees in accordance with the |
| terms of this License. </p> |
| <p> The license rights granted in this Section 2.2 ("Contributor Grant") |
| are effective on the date Contributor first makes Commercial Use of the Documentation. |
| </p> |
| <p></p> |
| <h3>3.0 DISTRIBUTION OBLIGATIONS</h3> |
| <p></p> |
| <h4> 3.1. Application of License</h4> |
| <p></p> |
| <p> The Modifications which You create or to which You contribute are governed |
| by the terms of this License, including without limitation Section 2.2 ("Contributor |
| Grant"). The Documentation may be distributed only under the terms of this |
| License or a future version of this License released in accordance with Section |
| 5.0 ("Versions of the License"), and You must include a copy of this |
| License with every copy of the Documentation You distribute. You may not offer |
| or impose any terms that alter or restrict the applicable version of this License |
| or the recipients' rights hereunder. However, You may include an additional |
| document offering the additional rights described in Section 3.5 ("Required |
| Notices"). </p> |
| <p></p> |
| <h3>3.2. Availability of Documentation.</h3> |
| <p></p> |
| <p> Any Modification which You create or to which You contribute must be made |
| available publicly in Editable Form under the terms of this License via a fixed |
| medium or an accepted Electronic Distribution Mechanism. </p> |
| <p></p> |
| <h4>3.3. Description of Modifications.</h4> |
| <p></p> |
| <p> All Documentation to which You contribute must identify the changes You made |
| to create that Documentation and the date of any change. You must include a |
| prominent statement that the Modification is derived, directly or indirectly, |
| from Original Documentation provided by the Initial Writer and include the name |
| of the Initial Writer in the Documentation or via an electronic link that describes |
| the origin or ownership of the Documentation. The foregoing change documentation |
| may be created by using an electronic program that automatically tracks changes |
| to the Documentation, and such changes must be available publicly for at least |
| five years following release of the changed Documentation. </p> |
| <p></p> |
| <h4>3.4. Intellectual Property Matters.</h4> |
| <p></p> |
| <p> Contributor represents that Contributor believes that Contributor's Modifications |
| are Contributor's original creation(s) and/or Contributor has sufficient rights |
| to grant the rights conveyed by this License.</p> |
| <p></p> |
| <h4> 3.5. Required Notices.</h4> |
| <p></p> |
| <p> You must duplicate the notice in the <strong>Appendix</strong> in each file |
| of the Documentation. If it is not possible to put such notice in a particular |
| Documentation file due to its structure, then You must include such notice in |
| a location (such as a relevant directory) where a reader would be likely to |
| look for such a notice, for example, via a hyperlink in each file of the Documentation |
| that takes the reader to a page that describes the origin and ownership of the |
| Documentation. If You created one or more Modification(s) You may add your name |
| as a Contributor to the notice described in the <strong> Appendix</strong>. |
| </p> |
| <p> You must also duplicate this License in any Documentation file (or with a |
| hyperlink in each file of the Documentation) where You describe recipients' |
| rights or ownership rights. </p> |
| <p> You may choose to offer, and to charge a fee for, warranty, support, indemnity |
| or liability obligations to one or more recipients of Documentation. However, |
| You may do so only on Your own behalf, and not on behalf of the Initial Writer |
| or any Contributor. You must make it absolutely clear than any such warranty, |
| support, indemnity or liability obligation is offered by You alone, and You |
| hereby agree to indemnify the Initial Writer and every Contributor for any liability |
| incurred by the Initial Writer or such Contributor as a result of warranty, |
| support, indemnity or liability terms You offer. </p> |
| <p></p> |
| <h4> 3.6. Larger Works.</h4> |
| <p></p> |
| <p> You may create a Larger Work by combining Documentation with other documents |
| not governed by the terms of this License and distribute the Larger Work as |
| a single product. In such a case, You must make sure the requirements of this |
| License are fulfilled for the Documentation.</p> |
