0. PREAMBLE

0. 导言

The purpose of this License is to make a manual, textbook, or other functional and useful document ``free'' in the sense of freedom: to assure everyone the effective freedom to copy and redistribute it, with or without modifying it, either commercially or noncommercially. Secondarily, this License preserves for the author and publisher a way to get credit for their work, while not being considered responsible for modifications made by others.

本授权的目的在于作为一种手册、教科书或其它的具有功能性的有用文件获得自由:确保每一个人都具有复制和重新发布它的有效自由,而不论是否作出修改,也不论其是否具有商业行为。其次,本授权保存了作者以及出版者由于他们的工作而 得到 名誉的方式,同时也不被认为应该对其他人所作出的修改而担负责任。

This License is a kind of ``copyleft'', which means that derivative works of the document must themselves be free in the same sense. It complements the GNU General Public License, which is a copyleft license designed for free software.

本授权是一种’copyleft’,这表示文件的衍生作品本身必须具有相同的自由涵义。它补足了GNU 公共通用授权-- 一种为了自由软件而设计的’copyleft’授权。

We have designed this License in order to use it for manuals for free software, because free software needs free documentation: a free program should come with manuals providing the same freedoms that the software does. But this License is not limited to software manuals; it can be used for any textual work, regardless of subject matter or whether it is published as a printed book. We recommend this License principally for works whose purpose is instruction or reference.

我们设计了本授权是为了将它使用到自由软件的使用手册上,因为自由软件需要自由的文档:一种自由的程序应该提供与此软件具有相同的自由的使用手册。但是本授权并不被限制在软件使用手册的应用上;它可以被用于任何以文字作基础的作品,而不论其主题内容,或者它是否是一个被出版的印刷书籍。我们建议本授权主要应用在以使用说明或提供参考作为目的的作品上。

1. APPLICABILITY AND DEFINITIONS

1. 效力与定义

This License applies to any manual or other work, in any medium, that contains a notice placed by the copyright holder saying it can be distributed under the terms of this License. Such a notice grants a world-wide, royalty-free license, unlimited in duration, to use that work under the conditions stated herein. The ``Document'', below, refers to any such manual or work. Any member of the public is a licensee, and is addressed as ``you''. You accept the license if you copy, modify or distribute the work in a way requiring permission under copyright law.

本授权的效力在于任何媒体中的任何的使用手册或其它作品,只要其中包含由版权所有人所指定的声明,说明它可以在本授权的条款下被发布。这样的一份声明提供了全球范围内的,免版税的和没有期限的许可,在此所陈述条件下使用那个作品。以下所称的文件,指的是任何像这样的使用手册或作品。公众中的任何成员都是被许可人,并且称作为你。如果你以一种需要在版权法下取得允许的方式进行复制、修改或发布作品,你就接受了这项许可。

A ``Modified Version'' of the Document means any work containing the Document or a portion of it, either copied verbatim, or with modifications and/or translated into another language.

“修改版本”指的是任何包含文件或是它的其中一部份,不论是逐字的复制或是经过修正,或翻译成其它语言的任何作品。

A ``Secondary Section'' is a named appendix or a front-matter section of the Document that deals exclusively with the relationship of the publishers or authors of the Document to the Document's overall subject (or to related matters) and contains nothing that could fall directly within that overall subject. (Thus, if the Document is in part a textbook of mathematics, a Secondary Section may not explain any mathematics.) The relationship could be a matter of historical connection with the subject or with related matters, or of legal, commercial, philosophical, ethical or political position regarding them.

“次要章节”是一个具名的附录,或是文件的本文之前内容的章节,专门用来处理文件的出版者或作者,与文件整体主题(或其它相关内容)的关系,并且不包含任何可以直接落入那个整体主题的内容。(因此,如果文件的部分内容是作为数学教科书,那么其次要章节就可以不用来解释任何数学。)它的关系可以是与主题相关的历史连接,或是与其相关的法律、商业、哲学、伦理道德或政治立场。

The ``Invariant Sections'' are certain Secondary Sections whose titles are designated, as being those of Invariant Sections, in the notice that says that the Document is released under this License. If a section does not fit the above definition of Secondary then it is not allowed to be designated as Invariant. The Document may contain zero Invariant Sections. If the Document does not identify any Invariant Sections then there are none.

“不变章节”是标题已被指定的某些次要章节,在一个声明了是以本授权加以发行的文件中,依此作为不变章节。如果一个章节并不符合上述有关于次要的定义时,则它并不允许被指定为不变。文件可以不包含不变章节。如果文件并没有指出任何不变章节,那么就是没有。

The ``Cover Texts'' are certain short passages of text that are listed, as Front-Cover Texts or Back-Cover Texts, in the notice that says that the Document is released under this License. A Front-Cover Text may be at most 5 words, and a Back-Cover Text may be at most 25 words.

“封面文字”是某些被加以列出的简短文字段落,在一个声明了是以本授权加以发行的文件中,依此作为前封面文字或后封面文字。前封面文字最多可以包含 5 个单词,后封面文字最多可以包含 25 个单词。

A ``Transparent'' copy of the Document means a machine-readable copy, represented in a format whose specification is available to the general public, that is suitable for revising the document straightforwardly with generic text editors or (for images composed of pixels) generic paint programs or (for drawings) some widely available drawing editor, and that is suitable for input to text formatters or for automatic translation to a variety of formats suitable for input to text formatters. A copy made in an otherwise Transparent file format whose markup, or absence of markup, has been arranged to thwart or discourage subsequent modification by readers is not Transparent. An image format is not Transparent if used for any substantial amount of text. A copy that is not ``Transparent'' is called ``Opaque''.

文件的”透明”拷贝指的是一份机器可读的拷贝,它以一种一般公众可以取得其规格说明的格式来表现,适合于直接用一般文字编辑器、一般点阵图像程序用于由图元像素构成的影像或一些可以广泛取得的绘图程序用于由向量绘制的图形直接地进行修订;并且适合于输入到文字格式化程式,或是可以自动地转换到适合于输入到文字格式化程序的各种格式。一份以透明以外的档案格式所构成的拷贝,其标记或缺少标记,若是被安排成用来挫折或是打消读者进行其后续的修改,则此拷贝并非透明。一种影像格式,如果仅仅是用来充斥文本的资料量时,就不是透明的。一个不是透明的拷贝被称为混浊。

Examples of suitable formats for Transparent copies include plain ASCII without markup, Texinfo input format, LaTeX input format, SGML or XML using a publicly available DTD, and standard-conforming simple HTML, PostScript or PDF designed for human modification. Examples of transparent image formats include PNG, XCF and JPG. Opaque formats include proprietary formats that can be read and edited only by proprietary word processors, SGML or XML for which the DTD and/or processing tools are not generally available, and the machine-generated HTML, PostScript or PDF produced by some word processors for output purposes only.

透明拷贝适合格式的例子包括有:没有标记的纯 ASCII、Texinfo 输入格式、LaTeX 输入格式、使用可以公开取得其 DTD 的 SGML 或 XML、合乎标准的简单 HTML、PostScript 或 PDF。透明影像格式的例子有 PNG、XCF 和 JPG 。混浊格式包括只能够以私人文书处理器阅读以及编辑的私人格式、DTD 以及或处理工具不能够一般地加以取得的 SGML 或 XML、以及由某些文书处理器只是为了输出的目的而做出的,由机器制作的 HTML、PostScript 或 PDF 。

The ``Title Page'' means, for a printed book, the title page itself, plus such following pages as are needed to hold, legibly, the material this License requires to appear in the title page. For works in formats which do not have any title page as such, ``Title Page'' means the text near the most prominent appearance of the work's title, preceding the beginning of the body of the text.

标题页对一本印刷书籍来说,指的是标题页本身,以及所需要用来容纳本授权必须出现在标题页的易读内容的,如此的接续数页。对于并没有任何如此页面的作品的某些格式,标题页指的是本文主体开始之前作品标题最显着位置的文字。

A section ``Entitled XYZ'' means a named subunit of the Document whose title either is precisely XYZ or contains XYZ in parentheses following text that translates XYZ in another language. (Here XYZ stands for a specific section name mentioned below, such as ``Acknowledgements'', ``Dedications'', ``Endorsements'', or ``History''.) To ``Preserve the Title'' of such a section when you modify the Document means that it remains a section ``Entitled XYZ'' according to this definition.

一个标题为 XYZ的章节指的是文件的一个具名的次要单元,其标题精确地为 XYZ 或是将 XYZ 包含在跟着翻译为其它语言的 XYZ 文字后面的括号内 -- 这里 XYZ 代表的是名称于下提及的特定章节,像是感谢、贡献、背书或历史。当你修改文件时,给像这样子的章节保存其标题指的是,它保持为一个根据这个定义的标题为 XYZ的章节。

The Document may include Warranty Disclaimers next to the notice which states that this License applies to the Document. These Warranty Disclaimers are considered to be included by reference in this License, but only as regards disclaiming warranties: any other implication that these Warranty Disclaimers may have is void and has no effect on the meaning of this License.

文件可以在用来陈述本授权效力及于文件的声明后,包括担保放弃。这些担保放弃被考虑为以提及的方式,包括在本授权中,但是只被看作为放弃担保之用:任何这些担保放弃可能会有的其它暗示都是无效的,并且也对本授权的含义没有影响。

以下是有关复制、发布及修改的明确条款及条件。


2. VERBATIM COPYING

2. 逐字的复制

You may copy and distribute the Document in any medium, either commercially or noncommercially, provided that this License, the copyright notices, and the license notice saying this License applies to the Document are reproduced in all copies, and that you add no other conditions whatsoever to those of this License. You may not use technical measures to obstruct or control the reading or further copying of the copies you make or distribute. However, you may accept compensation in exchange for copies. If you distribute a large enough number of copies you must also follow the conditions in section 3..

你可以复制或发布文件于任何媒体,而不论其是否具有商业买卖行为,其条件为具有本授权、版权声明和许可声明,说明本授权效力于文件的所有重制拷贝,并且你没有增加任何其它条件到本授权的条件中。你不可以使用技术手段,来妨碍或控制你所制作或发布的拷贝阅读或进一步的发布。然而,你可以接受补偿以作为拷贝的交换。如果你发布了数量足够大的拷贝,你也必须遵循第三条的条件。

You may also lend copies, under the same conditions stated above, and you may publicly display copies.

你也可以在上述的相同条件下借出拷贝,并且你可以公开地陈列拷贝。

3. COPYING IN QUANTITY

3. 大量地复制

If you publish printed copies (or copies in media that commonly have printed covers) of the Document, numbering more than 100, and the Document's license notice requires Cover Texts, you must enclose the copies in covers that carry, clearly and legibly, all these Cover Texts: Front-Cover Texts on the front cover, and Back-Cover Texts on the back cover. Both covers must also clearly and legibly identify you as the publisher of these copies. The front cover must present the full title with all words of the title equally prominent and visible. You may add other material on the covers in addition. Copying with changes limited to the covers, as long as they preserve the title of the Document and satisfy these conditions, can be treated as verbatim copying in other respects.

如果你出版文件的印刷拷贝或者通常具有印刷封面的媒体的拷贝,数量上超过一百个单位,而且文件许可声明要求有封面文字,那么你必须将这些拷贝附上清楚且易读的文字:前封面文字于前封面上、后封面文字于后封面上。这两种封面必须清楚易读地辨认出,你是这些拷贝的出版者。前封面文字必须展示完整的标题,而标题的文字应当同等地显著可见。你可以增加额外的内容于封面上。仅在封面作出改变的复制,只要它们保存了文件的标题,并且满足了这些条件,可以在其它方面被看作为逐字的复制。

If the required texts for either cover are too voluminous to fit legibly, you should put the first ones listed (as many as fit reasonably) on the actual cover, and continue the rest onto adjacent pages.

如果对于任意一个封面所需要的文字,数量过于庞大以至于不能符合易读的原则,你应该在实际封面的最前面列出所能符合易读原则的内容,然后将剩下的接续在相邻的页面。

If you publish or distribute Opaque copies of the Document numbering more than 100, you must either include a machine-readable Transparent copy along with each Opaque copy, or state in or with each Opaque copy a computer-network location from which the general network-using public has access to download using public-standard network protocols a complete Transparent copy of the Document, free of added material. If you use the latter option, you must take reasonably prudent steps, when you begin distribution of Opaque copies in quantity, to ensure that this Transparent copy will remain thus accessible at the stated location until at least one year after the last time you distribute an Opaque copy (directly or through your agents or retailers) of that edition to the public.

如果你出版或发布数量超过一百个单位文件的混浊拷贝,你必须与此混浊拷贝一起包含一份机器可读的透明拷贝,或是与一份混浊拷贝一起或其陈述一个电脑网络位址,使一般的网络使用公众具有存取权,可以使用公开标准的网络协定,下载一份文件的完全透明拷贝,此拷贝中并且没有增加额外的内容。如果你使用后面的选项,当你开始大量地发布混浊拷贝时,你必须采取合理的审慎步骤,以保证这个透明拷贝将会在发布的一开始就保持可供存取,直到你最后一次发布那个发行版的一份混浊拷贝给公众后,至少一年为止。以保证这个透明拷贝,将会在所陈述的位址保持如此的可存取性,直到你最后一次发布那个发行版直接或经由你的代理商或零售商的一份混浊拷贝给公众后,至少一年为止。

It is requested, but not required, that you contact the authors of the Document well before redistributing any large number of copies, to give them a chance to provide you with an updated version of the Document.

你被要求,但不是必须,在重新发布任何大数量的拷贝之前与文件的作者联络,给予他们提供你一份文件的更新版本的机会。

4. MODIFICATIONS

4. 修改

You may copy and distribute a Modified Version of the Document under the conditions of sections 2. and 3. above, provided that you release the Modified Version under precisely this License, with the Modified Version filling the role of the Document, thus licensing distribution and modification of the Modified Version to whoever possesses a copy of it. In addition, you must do these things in the Modified Version:

你可以在上述第二条和第三条的条件下,复制和发布文件的修改版本,其条件为你要精确地在本授权下发布修改版本,且修改版本补足了文件的角色,从而允许修改版本的发布和修改权利给任何拥有它拷贝的人。另外,你必须在修改版本中做这些事:

A. Use in the Title Page (and on the covers, if any) a title distinct from that of the Document, and from those of previous versions (which should, if there were any, be listed in the History section of the Document). You may use the same title as a previous version if the original publisher of that version gives permission.

第一款、 在标题页或在封面上使用,如果有与先前版本不同的文件,应该被列在文件的历史章节不同的标题。如果版本的原始出版者允许,你可以使用与某一个先前版本相同的标题。

B. List on the Title Page, as authors, one or more persons or entities responsible for authorship of the modifications in the Modified Version, together with at least five of the principal authors of the Document (all of its principal authors, if it has fewer than five), unless they release you from this requirement.

第二款、 在修改版本的标题页上列出担负作者权的一个或多个人或实体作为作者,并且列出至少五位文件的主要作者。如果少于五位,则列出全部的主要作者,除非他们免除了你这个要求。

第三款、 在标题页陈述修改版本的出版者的名称作为出版者。

D. Preserve all the copyright notices of the Document.

第六款、 在版权声明后面,以授权附录所显示的形式,包括一个给予公众在本授权条款下使用修改版本的许可声明。

G. Preserve in that license notice the full lists of Invariant Sections and required Cover Texts given in the Document's license notice.

第七款、 在那个许可声明中保存恒常章节和文件许可声明中必要封面文字的全部列表。

H. Include an unaltered copy of this License.

第八款、 包括一个未被改变的本授权的副本。

I. Preserve the section Entitled ``History'', Preserve its Title, and add to it an item stating at least the title, year, new authors, and publisher of the Modified Version as given on the Title Page. If there is no section Entitled ``History'' in the Document, create one stating the title, year, authors, and publisher of the Document as given on its Title Page, then add an item describing the Modified Version as stated in the previous sentence.

第九款、 保存标题为历史的章节和其标题,并且增加一项至少陈述如同在标题页中所给的修改版本的标题、年份、新作者和出版者。如果在文件中没有标题为历史的章节,则制作出一个陈述如同在它的标题页中所给的文件的标题、年份、新作者和出版者,然后增加一项描述修改版本如前面句子所陈述的情形。

J. Preserve the network location, if any, given in the Document for public access to a Transparent copy of the Document, and likewise the network locations given in the Document for previous versions it was based on. These may be placed in the ``History'' section. You may omit a network location for a work that was published at least four years before the Document itself, or if the original publisher of the version it refers to gives permission.

第十款、 如果有的话,保存在文件中为了给公众存取文件的透明拷贝,而给予的网络位址,以及同样地在文件中为了它所根据的先前版本,而给予的网络位址。这些可以被放置在历史章节。你可以省略一个在文件本身之前,已经至少出版了四年的作品的网络位址,或是如果它所参照的那个版本的原始出版者给予允许的情形下也可以省略它。

K. For any section Entitled ``Acknowledgements'' or ``Dedications'', Preserve the Title of the section, and preserve in the section all the substance and tone of each of the contributor acknowledgements and/or dedications given therein.

第十一款、 在任何标题为感谢或贡献的章节,保存章节的标题,并且在那章节保存到那时候为止,每一个贡献者的感谢以及或贡献的所有声色。

L. Preserve all the Invariant Sections of the Document, unaltered in their text and in their titles. Section numbers or the equivalent are not considered part of the section titles.

第十二款、 保存文件的所有恒常章节,于其文字以及标题皆不得变更。章节号码或其同等物并不被认为是章节标题的一部份。

M. Delete any section Entitled ``Endorsements''. Such a section may not be included in the Modified Version.

第十三款、 删除任何标题为背书的章节。这样子的章节不可以被包括在修改版本中。

N. Do not retitle any existing section to be Entitled ``Endorsements'' or to conflict in title with any Invariant Section.

第十四款、 不要重新命名任何现存的章节,而使其标题为背书,或造成与任何恒常章节相冲突的标题。

O. Preserve any Warranty Disclaimers.

第十五款、 保存任何的担保放弃。

If the Modified Version includes new front-matter sections or appendices that qualify as Secondary Sections and contain no material copied from the Document, you may at your option designate some or all of these sections as invariant. To do this, add their titles to the list of Invariant Sections in the Modified Version's license notice. These titles must be distinct from any other section titles.

如果修改版本包括新的本文之前内容的章节,或合乎作为次要章节的附录,并且没有包含复制自文件的内容,则你具有选择可以指定一些或全部这些章节为恒常的。要这样做,将它们的标题增加到在修改版本许可声明中的恒常章节列表中。这些标题必须可以和任何其它章节标题加以区别。

You may add a section Entitled ``Endorsements'', provided it contains nothing but endorsements of your Modified Version by various parties -- for example, statements of peer review or that the text has been approved by an organization as the authoritative definition of a standard.

你可以增加一个标题为背书的章节,其条件为它仅只包含由许多团体所提供的你的修改版本的背书 -- 举例来说,同侪评审的说明,或本文已经被一个机构认可为一个标准的权威定义。

You may add a passage of up to five words as a Front-Cover Text, and a passage of up to 25 words as a Back-Cover Text, to the end of the list of Cover Texts in the Modified Version. Only one passage of Front-Cover Text and one of Back-Cover Text may be added by (or through arrangements made by) any one entity. If the Document already includes a cover text for the same cover, previously added by you or by arrangement made by the same entity you are acting on behalf of, you may not add another; but you may replace the old one, on explicit permission from the previous publisher that added the old one.

你可以增加一个作为前封面文字的最多五个字的段落,以及一个作为后封面文字的最多二十五个字的段落,到修改版本的封面文字列表的后面。前封面文字和后封面文字都只能有一个段落,可以经由任何一个实体,或经由任何一个实体所作出的安排而被加入。如果文件已经在同样的封面包括了封面文字 -- 先前由你或由你所代表的相同实体所作出的安排而加入,则你不可以增加另外一个;但是你可以在先前出版者的明确允许下替换掉旧的。

The author(s) and publisher(s) of the Document do not by this License give permission to use their names for publicity for or to assert or imply endorsement of any Modified Version.

文件的作者和出版者并不由此授权,而给予允许使用他们的名字以为了或经由声称或暗示任何修改版本背书为自己所应得的方式而获得名声的权利。

5. COMBINING DOCUMENTS

5. 组合文件

You may combine the Document with other documents released under this License, under the terms defined in section 4 above for modified versions, provided that you include in the combination all of the Invariant Sections of all of the original documents, unmodified, and list them all as Invariant Sections of your combined work in its license notice, and that you preserve all their Warranty Disclaimers.

你可以在上述第四条的条款中对于修改版本的定义之下,将文件与其它在本授权下发行的文件组合起来,其条件是你要在组合品中,包括所有原始文件的所有恒常章节,不做修改,同时在组合作品的许可声明中将它们全部列为恒常章节,并且你要保存它们所有的担保放弃。

The combined work need only contain one copy of this License, and multiple identical Invariant Sections may be replaced with a single copy. If there are multiple Invariant Sections with the same name but different contents, make the title of each such section unique by adding at the end of it, in parentheses, the name of the original author or publisher of that section if known, or else a unique number. Make the same adjustment to the section titles in the list of Invariant Sections in the license notice of the combined work.

组合作品只需包含本授权的一份副本,并且重复的恒常章节可以仅以单一个拷贝来取代。如果名称重复但内容不同的恒常章节,则将任此章节的标题,以在它的后面增加的方式加以独特化,如果已知的话,于括号中指出那个章节的原始作者或出版者的名称,或是指定一个独特的号码。在此组合作品许可声明中恒常章节的列表中,对其章节标题也作出相同的调整。

In the combination, you must combine any sections Entitled ``History'' in the various original documents, forming one section Entitled ``History''; likewise combine any sections Entitled ``Acknowledgements'', and any sections Entitled ``Dedications''. You must delete all sections Entitled ``Endorsements''.

在组合品中,你必须组合在不同原始文件中,标题为历史的任何章节,形成一个标题为历史的章节;同样组合任意标题为感谢或贡献的章节。你必须删除标题为背书的所有章节。

6. COLLECTIONS OF DOCUMENTS

6. 文件的收集

You may make a collection consisting of the Document and other documents released under this License, and replace the individual copies of this License in the various documents with a single copy that is included in the collection, provided that you follow the rules of this License for verbatim copying of each of the documents in all other respects.

你可以制作含有文件以及其它以本授权发行文件的收集品,并且将本授权对不同文件中的个别副本,以单一个包括在收集品的副本取代,其条件是你要遵循在其它方面,给予一个文件逐字复制的允许本授权的规则。

You may extract a single document from such a collection, and distribute it individually under this License, provided you insert a copy of this License into the extracted document, and follow this License in all other respects regarding verbatim copying of that document.

你可以从这样的一个收集品中抽取出一份单一的文件,并且在本授权下将它单独地发布,其条件是你要在抽取出的文件中插入本授权的一份副本,并且在关于那份文件的逐字的复制的所有其它方面,遵循本授权。

7. AGGREGATION WITH INDEPENDENT WORKS

7. 独立作品的聚集

A compilation of the Document or its derivatives with other separate and independent documents or works, in or on a volume of a storage or distribution medium, is called an ``aggregate'' if the copyright resulting from the compilation is not used to limit the legal rights of the compilation's users beyond what the individual works permit. When the Document is included an aggregate, this License does not apply to the other works in the aggregate which are not themselves derivative works of the Document.

一个文件的编辑物,其中或附加于储存物或发布媒体的一册的,具有其它分别且独立的文件或作品的衍生品,如果经由编辑而产生的版权,并没有用来限制此编辑物使用者的法律权力,而超过了个别的作品所允许的,则被称为一个聚集品。当文件中包括一个聚集品,本授权的效力并不仅在于此聚集品中的,于其本身并非文件的衍生作品的其它作品。

If the Cover Text requirement of section 3.is applicable to these copies of the Document, then if the Document is less than one half of the entire aggregate, the Document's Cover Texts may be placed on covers that bracket the Document within the aggregate, or the electronic equivalent of covers if the Document is in electronic form. Otherwise they must appear on printed covers that bracket the whole aggregate.

如果第三条的封面文字要求效力于这些文件的拷贝,并且文件的篇幅少于整个聚集品的一半,则文件的封面文字可以被放在只围绕着文件,并于聚集品内部的封面或是电子的封面同等物上,如果文件是以电子的形式出现的话。否则它们必须出现在绕着整个聚集品的印刷封面上。

8. TRANSLATION

8. 翻译

Translation is considered a kind of modification, so you may distribute translations of the Document under the terms of section 4.. Replacing Invariant Sections with translations requires special permission from their copyright holders, but you may include translations of some or all Invariant Sections in addition to the original versions of these Invariant Sections. You may include a translation of this License, and all the license notices in the Document, and any Warrany Disclaimers, provided that you also include the original English version of this License and the original versions of those notices and disclaimers. In case of a disagreement between the translation and the original version of this License or a notice or disclaimer, the original version will prevail.

翻译被认为一种修改,因此你可以在第四条的条款下发布文件的翻译。用翻译更换恒常章节需要取得版权所有者的特别允许,但是你可以包括部份或所有恒常章节的翻译,使其附加到这些恒常章节的原始版本之中。你可以包括本授权、文件中的所有许可声明和任何的担保放弃的翻译,其条件为你也必须包括本授权的原始英文版本,以及这些声明与放弃的原始版本。如果发生翻译与本授权、声明或放弃的原始版本有任何的不同意时,将以原始版本为准。

If a section in the Document is Entitled ``Acknowledgements'', ``Dedications'', or ``History'', the requirement (section 4.) to Preserve its Title (section 1.) will typically require changing the actual title.

如果在文件中的章节被标题为感谢、贡献或历史,则保存标题第一条的必要条件第四条,典型上将会需要去更动实际的标题。

9. TERMINATION

9. 终止

You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the Document except as expressly provided for under this License. Any other attempt to copy, modify, sublicense or distribute the Document is void, and will automatically terminate your rights under this License. However, parties who have received copies, or rights, from you under this License will not have their licenses terminated so long as such parties remain in full compliance.

你不可以复制、修改、在本授权下再设定额外条件的次授权或发布文件,除非明白地表示是在本授权所规范的条件下进行。任何其它的复制、修改、在本授权下再设定额外条件的次授权、或发布文件的意图都是无效的,并且将会自动地终止你在本授权下所被保障的权利。然而,你在本授权下收到拷贝及权利的团体,只要团体完全遵守本授权的条件,则他们所获得的许可将不会被终止。

10. FUTURE REVISIONS OF THIS LICENSE

10. 本授权的未来改版

The Free Software Foundation may publish new, revised versions of the GNU Free Documentation License from time to time. Such new versions will be similar in spirit to the present version, but may differ in detail to address new problems or concerns. See http://www.gnu.org/copyleft/.

自由软件基金会可能偶尔会出版自由文件授权的新修订过的版本。这种新版本在精神上将会类似于现在的版本,但在细节上可能会有不同,以对应新的问题或相关的事。请见 http://www.gnu.org/copyleft/。

Each version of the License is given a distinguishing version number. If the Document specifies that a particular numbered version of this License ``or any later version'' applies to it, you have the option of following the terms and conditions either of that specified version or of any later version that has been published (not as a draft) by the Free Software Foundation. If the Document does not specify a version number of this License, you may choose any version ever published (not as a draft) by the Free Software Foundation.

本授权的任何版本都被指定一个可供区别的版本号码。如果文件指定一个效力于它的特定号码版本的本授权或任何以后的版本,你就具有选择遵循指定的版本,或任何已经由自由软件基金会出版的后来版本并且不是草稿的条款和条件。如果文件并没有指定一个本授权的版本号码,你就可以选择任何一个曾由自由软件基金会所出版不是草稿的版本。

 

ADDENDUM: How to use this License for your documents

授权附录:如何使用本授权用于你的文件

To use this License in a document you have written, include a copy of the License in the document and put the following copyright and license notices just after the title page:

为使用本授权成为你撰写成的一份文件,必须在文件中包括本授权的一份复本,以及标题页的后面包括许可声明:

Copyright (c) YEAR YOUR NAME. Permission is granted to copy, distribute and/or modify this document under the terms of the GNU Free Documentation License, Version 1.2 or any later version published by the Free Software Foundation; with no Invariant Sections, no Front-Cover Texts, and no Back-Cover Texts. A copy of the license is included in the section entitled "GNU Free Documentation License".

If you have Invariant Sections, Front-Cover Texts and Back-Cover Texts, replace the ''with... Texts.'' line with this:

如果你有恒常章节、前封面文字和后封面文字,请将with... Texts这一行以这些文本取代:

with the Invariant Sections being LIST THEIR TITLES, with the Front-Cover Texts being LIST, and with the Back-Cover Texts being LIST.

If you have Invariant Sections without Cover Texts, or some other combination of the three, merge those two alternatives to suit the situation.

如果你有不具封面文字的恒常章节,或一些其它这三者的组合,将可选择的二项合并以符合实际情形。

如果你的文件中包含有并非微不足道的程序码范例,我们建议这些范例平行地在你的自由软件授权选择下,比如以 GNU General Public License 的自由软件授权来发布,从而允许它们作为自由软件而使用。
