<h2>V. GOOD-PRACTICE RECOMMENDATIONS</h2>

    <p>In addition to the requirements of this license, it is requested from and strongly recommended of redistributors that:</p>
96
    <ol>
97
        <li>
98
            If you are distributing Open Publication works on hardcopy or CD-ROM, you provide email notification to the authors of your intent to redistribute at least thirty days before your manuscript or media freeze, to give the authors time to provide updated documents. This notification should describe modifications, if any, made to the document.
99
        </li>
100
        <li>
101
            All substantive modifications (including deletions) be either clearly marked up in the document or else described in an attachment to the document.
102
        </li>
103
        <li>
104
            Finally, while it is not mandatory under this license, it is considered good form to offer a free copy of any hardcopy and CD-ROM expression of an Open Publication-licensed work to its author(s).

<h2>VI. LICENSE OPTIONS</h2>
112
<div class="content">
113
    <p>The author(s) and/or publisher of an Open Publication-licensed document may elect certain options by appending language to the reference to or copy of the license.
114
    These options are considered part of the license instance and must be included with the license (or its incorporation by reference) in derived works.</p>
115
    <br>
116
    <b>A.</b> To prohibit distribution of substantively modified versions without the explicit permission of the author(s).
117
    "Substantive modification" is defined as a change to the semantic content of the document, and excludes mere changes in format or typographical corrections.
118
    <br>
119
    <br>
120
    To accomplish this, add the phrase `Distribution of substantively modified versions of this document is prohibited without the explicit permission of the copyright holder.' to the license
121
    reference or copy.
122
    <br>
123
    <br>
124
    <b>B.</b> To prohibit any publication of this work or derivative works in whole or in part in standard (paper) book form for commercial purposes is prohibited unless prior permission is obtained from the copyright holder.
125
    <br>
126
    <p>
127
    To accomplish this, add the phrase 'Distribution of the work or derivative of the work in any standard (paper) book form is prohibited unless prior permission is obtained from the
128
    copyright holder.' to the license reference or copy.</p>
