I hereby grant permission, etc., etc., etc., to Gary Clark II, etc., etc., etc., to photograph, print, publish, store in a retrieval system, etc., the chapter on printing. I'd like the material I submitted to be treated as if it were under the spirit and/or the letter of your typical BSD license. If someone whose appropriately annointed could insert the license, that'd be super. We can come up with a BSD-DOC license, if it's really needed. We could probably collapse the first two clauses of the BSD license, maybe say that the notice needs to be included in the front matter or its non-printed equivalent, something like that. Gary> 1.
