   The dictionary files are made available under a Creative Commons
   Attribution-ShareAlike Licence (V3.0). The Licence Deed can be viewed
   [3]here, and the full Licence Code is [4]here. As stated in that
   licence, you "must attribute the work in the manner specified by the
   author or licensor." In the case of these files, you must:
    a. in the case of publishing significant extracts of the files, or
       material based on significant extracts of the files, e.g. in a
       published dictionary or in vocabulary lists, clearly acknowledge
       that you used the files for this purpose;
    b. in the case of a software package or WWW server, etc. which uses
       the files or incorporates data from the files, you must:
         i. acknowledge the usage and source of the files in the
            documentation and publicity material;
        ii. provide copies of the documentation and licence files (in the
            case of software packages);
        iii. provide links to either local copies of the documentation
            and licence files or to the locations of the files at Monash
            University.
            If a WWW server is providing a dictionary function or an
            on-screen display of words from the files, the
            acknowledgement must be made on each screen display, e.g. in
            the form of a message at the foot of the screen or page.

            may be used or quoted:
