a) The derived work acknowledges the fact that it is derived from

b) The fact that the derived work is not the original OpenMath

both this document and the derived work are Content Dictionaries
then the derived work must include a different CDName element,
chosen so that it cannot be confused with any works adopted by
the OpenMath Society.  In particular, if there is a Content
Dictionary Group whose name is, for example, `math' containing
Content Dictionaries named `math1', `math2' etc., then you should
not name a derived Content Dictionary `mathN' where N is an integer.
However you are free to name it `private_mathN' or some such.  This
is because the names `mathN' may be used by the OpenMath Society
for future extensions.

intact.  The simplest way to do this is to distribute the derived
work under the OpenMath license, but this is not a requirement.
