Creative Commons Zero v1.0 Universal.

     CC0 1.0 Universal

     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.
