| <h2>Notes</h2> |
| |
| <p>This version: http://www.w3.org/Consortium/Legal/2002/copyright-software-20021231</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 href="http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/license-list.html#GPLCompatibleLicenses">Free |
| Software Foundation's assessment of GPL compatibility</a> and <a href="http://www.opensource.org/licenses/W3C.php">OSI's certification</a> |
| under the <a href="http://www.opensource.org/docs/definition.php">Open Source |
| Definition</a>.</p> |
