Hi Ryan,

Just in sure that you cite in reference properly.

If you need further assistance, please let me know.

Kind regards,

Dear Mr. DiPierro,

My name is Ryan Kastovich, I am currently a student at the University of Central Florida and am currently working on my EE Degree. This email is regarding the usage of your Web2py ebook. I am currently in Senior Design at UCF and am writing a paper about our project which is creating an HVAC system. My group and I will be implementing an MVC Framework to run our projects and am requesting permission to use your documentation (words and images) from the online version of "web2py Full Stack Web Framework, 4th Edition" (wvvw.web2py.com/book) for use in my report. If there's anything you need from me please let me know.

Thank you,

Ryan Kastovich
Re: Request to use Web2py Documentation] Resources

Hello Ryan,

The web2py book is not open source and is copyrighted. In fact I sell it both the PDF version and the printed version.

Yet you can:

— use any text and images from web2py.com[examp|es - use up to 10% of text from the book but not the entire book (but the source must be quoted)

- use all the images and code examples from the book (but the source must be quoted) — if for internal use only, you can redistribute the book within the organization. (it must say for internal use only).

Hope this is acceptable. massimo

Re: Python Material Usage for Senior Design Paper

Hello,

Ryan
My name is Ryan Kastovich and this email is regarding using the Django website information/ tutorials/ documentation for my personal use. I am writing a paper for my Senior Design class where I implement using a Web Framework like Django in my final project. Moreover, I was wondering if I would be able to get permission to use the documentation/ information on the Django website in my paper. If you have any questions please let me know. Thank You, Ryan

Django's documentation is covered by the same license as Django itself (i.e., the BSD license) . This means that you are free to use the content for whatever purpose you wish, provided retain and distribute the original copyright notice (available in Django's source distribution) in whatever you publish, and don't use the name of Django or it's contributors to endorse or promote your own work.

This is a slightly more strict version of the usual academic requirement to cite

your sources.

I would also note that depending on the details of your specific usage of Django's documentation, your request *may* fall under the copyright rules governing academic citation. This would mean you don't require permission from the Django project to use the text from Django's documentation or website —— you just need to appropriately cite the content you are replicating, and stay within the limits placed on citation volume by copyright law.

A good analog here would be a liberal arts paper on Joseph Heller's novel "Catch—22". You don't need Heller's permission to write a paper about his book, and in the context of your academic work, you're free to quote a few selected sentences or paragraphs. However, you can't copy entire pages or chapters, and you must make it clear in your paper that you're citing the work of another.

For advice on academic citation requirements and limits, I suggest discussing your planned usage with your Professor.

My name is Javier Arias and I'm a student at the University of Central Florida. I am writing to request permission to use portions of the I2C-bus Specification and User Manual from your website located on the following link: http://www.nxp.com/documents/user manual/UM10204.pdf.

Portions of this document would be used for the purposes of documenting my Senior Design project in which my group will be leveraging the I2C-bus.

If there is anything you might need from me, please do not hesitate to let me know.

Thank you. J.A.
Javier,

You have our permission to do so.

Florida. The email is regarding the permission to use your information and figures from your website,

httoiffyormr.hometech.comfkhfouestions.|:Il1o?ouestionid=53. I am writing a paper for my senior design project

on controllers for multi-zone systems.

Thank you for your time,

Genaro Moore

Zoning systems are ever evolving and I'm sure you could lend some valuable insight to us; If you would like to submit something about your research and views we would be glad to run it.

Best of luck with your paper and your career!

My name is Genaro Moore and I am an electrical engineering currently enrolled at the University of Central Florida. The email is regarding the permission to use your information and figures from you website, http://www.hometech.com/kb/questions.php?questionid=53. I am writing a paper for my senior design project on HVAC controllers for multi-zone systems.

Genaro Moore

We give permission to use pictures and words from www.h0metech.oom for your senior design project only. These pictures and words are not to be published or indexed on the world wide web as this would lessen their value to us.

If you want to publish your design project after it’s completed forward me a copy or link password and I'll look at it to decide if I can give permission for publication. I’m pretty lenient about those kinds of things, as long as large sections aren’t lifted verbatim. [Not a good plan for a design project anyway J]

Good luck with the project.

My name is Michael and I'm a senor engineering student at the University of
Central Florida. I want to say thanks for posting information about your
open-source sprinkler controller. It has been a great help in designing my
own project. I'm currently in the middle of an embedded design project for
class, in which I have used some of the ideas presented in your sprinkler
project (such as shift register driven triacs). The main reason for this
email is to ask for you permission to use some of your information in a
paper regarding my project.
Michael,

Sure, as long as you provide a reference to my website, you can feel
