This gives permission to change the license text to: This material may be distributed only subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Open Publication License, v1.0 or later (the latest version is presently available at http://www.opencontent.org/openpub/) Distribution of the work or derivative of the work in any standard (paper) book form is prohibited unless prior permission obtained from the copyright holder. In other words, the problematical clause Distribution of substantively modified versions of this document is prohibited without the explicit permission of the copyright holder. can be eliminated. This change means I can now release the updated synthetic target documentation, so I plan to check in my accumulated changes in the next couple of days. After that I'll probably go through the repository and update the other .sgml files for consistency, unless somebody can think of a good reason for not doing so. Bart
