-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.

-        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.
