<P>____________________________________</P> | |
<P>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 <A | |
href="http://www.w3.org/Consortium/Legal/copyright-software-19980720">previous | |
version</A> and is written so as to preserve the <A | |
