+CREATIVE COMMONS CORPORATION IS NOT A LAW FIRM AND DOES NOT PROVIDE
+LEGAL SERVICES. DISTRIBUTION OF THIS DOCUMENT DOES NOT CREATE AN
+ATTORNEY-CLIENT RELATIONSHIP. CREATIVE COMMONS PROVIDES THIS
+INFORMATION ON AN "AS-IS" BASIS. CREATIVE COMMONS MAKES NO WARRANTIES
+REGARDING THE USE OF THIS DOCUMENT OR THE INFORMATION OR WORKS
+PROVIDED HEREUNDER, AND DISCLAIMS LIABILITY FOR DAMAGES RESULTING FROM
+THE USE OF THIS DOCUMENT OR THE INFORMATION OR WORKS PROVIDED
+HEREUNDER.
+
+Statement of Purpose
+
+The laws of most jurisdictions throughout the world automatically
+confer exclusive Copyright and Related Rights (defined below) upon the
+creator and subsequent owner(s) (each and all, an "owner") of an
+original work of authorship and/or a database (each, a "Work").
+
+Certain owners wish to permanently relinquish those rights to a Work
+for the purpose of contributing to a commons of creative, cultural and
+scientific works ("Commons") that the public can reliably and without
+fear of later claims of infringement build upon, modify, incorporate
+in other works, reuse and redistribute as freely as possible in any
+form whatsoever and for any purposes, including without limitation
+commercial purposes. These owners may contribute to the Commons to
+promote the ideal of a free culture and the further production of
+creative, cultural and scientific works, or to gain reputation or
+greater distribution for their Work in part through the use and
+efforts of others.
+
+For these and/or other purposes and motivations, and without any
+expectation of additional consideration or compensation, the person
+associating CC0 with a Work (the "Affirmer"), to the extent that he or
+she is an owner of Copyright and Related Rights in the Work,
+voluntarily elects to apply CC0 to the Work and publicly distribute
+the Work under its terms, with knowledge of his or her Copyright and
+Related Rights in the Work and the meaning and intended legal effect
+of CC0 on those rights.
+
+1. Copyright and Related Rights.
+
+A Work made available under CC0 may be protected by copyright and
+related or neighboring rights ("Copyright and Related
+Rights"). Copyright and Related Rights include, but are not limited
+to, the following:
+
+i.   the right to reproduce, adapt, distribute, perform, display,
+     communicate, and translate a Work;
+
+ii.  moral rights retained by the original author(s) and/or
+     performer(s);
+
+iii. publicity and privacy rights pertaining to a person's image or
+     likeness depicted in a Work;
+
+iv.  rights protecting against unfair competition in regards to a
+     Work, subject to the limitations in paragraph 4(a), below;
+
+v.   rights protecting the extraction, dissemination, use and reuse of
+     data in a Work;
+
+vi.  database rights (such as those arising under Directive 96/9/EC of
+     the European Parliament and of the Council of 11 March 1996 on
+     the legal protection of databases, and under any national
+     implementation thereof, including any amended or successor
+     version of such directive); and
+
+vii. other similar, equivalent or corresponding rights throughout the
+     world based on applicable law or treaty, and any national
+     implementations thereof.
+
+2. Waiver.
+
+To the greatest extent permitted by, but not in contravention of,
+applicable law, Affirmer hereby overtly, fully, permanently,
+irrevocably and unconditionally waives, abandons, and surrenders all
+of Affirmer's Copyright and Related Rights and associated claims and
+causes of action, whether now known or unknown (including existing as
+well as future claims and causes of action), in the Work (i) in all
+territories worldwide, (ii) for the maximum duration provided by
+applicable law or treaty (including future time extensions), (iii) in
+any current or future medium and for any number of copies, and (iv)
+for any purpose whatsoever, including without limitation commercial,
+advertising or promotional purposes (the "Waiver"). Affirmer makes the
+Waiver for the benefit of each member of the public at large and to
+the detriment of Affirmer's heirs and successors, fully intending that
+such Waiver shall not be subject to revocation, rescission,
+cancellation, termination, or any other legal or equitable action to
+disrupt the quiet enjoyment of the Work by the public as contemplated
+by Affirmer's express Statement of Purpose.
+
+3. Public License Fallback.
+
+Should any part of the Waiver for any reason be judged legally invalid
+or ineffective under applicable law, then the Waiver shall be
+preserved to the maximum extent permitted taking into account
+Affirmer's express Statement of Purpose. In addition, to the extent
+the Waiver is so judged Affirmer hereby grants to each affected person
+a royalty-free, non transferable, non sublicensable, non exclusive,
+irrevocable and unconditional license to exercise Affirmer's Copyright
+and Related Rights in the Work (i) in all territories worldwide, (ii)
+for the maximum duration provided by applicable law or treaty
+(including future time extensions), (iii) in any current or future
+medium and for any number of copies, and (iv) for any purpose
+whatsoever, including without limitation commercial, advertising or
+promotional purposes (the "License"). The License shall be deemed
+effective as of the date CC0 was applied by Affirmer to the
+Work. Should any part of the License for any reason be judged legally
+invalid or ineffective under applicable law, such partial invalidity
+or ineffectiveness shall not invalidate the remainder of the License,
+and in such case Affirmer hereby affirms that he or she will not (i)
+exercise any of his or her remaining Copyright and Related Rights in
+the Work or (ii) assert any associated claims and causes of action
+with respect to the Work, in either case contrary to Affirmer's
+express Statement of Purpose.
+
+4. Limitations and Disclaimers.
+
+a. No trademark or patent rights held by Affirmer are waived,
+   abandoned, surrendered, licensed or otherwise affected by this
+   document.
+
+b. Affirmer offers the Work as-is and makes no representations or
+   warranties of any kind concerning the Work, express, implied,
+   statutory or otherwise, including without limitation warranties of
+   title, merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non
+   infringement, or the absence of latent or other defects, accuracy,
+   or the present or absence of errors, whether or not discoverable,
+   all to the greatest extent permissible under applicable law.
+
+c. Affirmer disclaims responsibility for clearing rights of other
+   persons that may apply to the Work or any use thereof, including
+   without limitation any person's Copyright and Related Rights in the
+   Work. Further, Affirmer disclaims responsibility for obtaining any
+   necessary consents, permissions or other rights required for any
+   use of the Work.
+
+d. Affirmer understands and acknowledges that Creative Commons is not
+   a party to this document and has no duty or obligation with respect
+   to this CC0 or use of the Work.
