Notes
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This version: http://www.w3.org/Consortium/Legal/2002/copyright-software-20021231
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 previous version and is written so as to 
preserve the Free Software Foundation's assessment of GPL compatibility and OSI's 
certification under the Open Source Definition.
