[1]ACE(TM), [2]TAO(TM), [3]CIAO(TM), DAnCE(TM), and [4]CoSMIC(TM)

(henceforth referred to as "DOC software") are copyrighted by
|

[5]Douglas C. Schmidt and his [6]research group at [7]Washington
|
|
University, [8]University of California, Irvine, and [9]Vanderbilt
|
|
University, Copyright (c) 1993-2015, all rights reserved. Since DOC
|
|
software is open-source, freely available software, you are free to
|
|
use, modify, copy, and distribute--perpetually and irrevocably--the
|
|
DOC software source code and object code produced from the source, as
|
|
well as copy and distribute modified versions of this software. You
|
|
must, however, include this copyright statement along with any code
|
|
built using DOC software that you release. No copyright statement
|
|
needs to be provided if you just ship binary executables of your
|
|
software products.
|
|
|
|
You can use DOC software in commercial and/or binary software releases
|
|
and are under no obligation to redistribute any of your source code
|
|
that is built using DOC software. Note, however, that you may not
|
|
misappropriate the DOC software code, such as copyrighting it yourself
|
|
or claiming authorship of the DOC software code, in a way that will
|
|
prevent DOC software from being distributed freely using an
|
|
open-source development model. You needn't inform anyone that you're
|
|
using DOC software in your software, though we encourage you to let
|
|
[10]us know so we can promote your project in the [11]DOC software
|
|
success stories.

The [12]ACE, [13]TAO, [14]CIAO, [15]DAnCE, and [16]CoSMIC web sites

|
are maintained by the [17]DOC Group at the [18]Institute for Software
|
|
Integrated Systems (ISIS) and the [19]Center for Distributed Object
|

Computing of Washington University, St. Louis for the development of

open-source software as part of the open-source software community.

Submissions are provided by the submitter ``as is'' with no warranties
|
|
whatsoever, including any warranty of merchantability, noninfringement
|
|
of third party intellectual property, or fitness for any particular
|
|
purpose. In no event shall the submitter be liable for any direct,
|
|
indirect, special, exemplary, punitive, or consequential damages,
|
|
including without limitation, lost profits, even if advised of the
|
|
possibility of such damages. Likewise, DOC software is provided as is
|
|
with no warranties of any kind, including the warranties of design,
|
|
merchantability, and fitness for a particular purpose,
|
|
noninfringement, or arising from a course of dealing, usage or trade
|
|
practice. Washington University, UC Irvine, Vanderbilt University,
|
|
their employees, and students shall have no liability with respect to
|
|
the infringement of copyrights, trade secrets or any patents by DOC
|
|
software or any part thereof. Moreover, in no event will Washington
|
|
University, UC Irvine, or Vanderbilt University, their employees, or
|
|
students be liable for any lost revenue or profits or other special,
|
|
indirect and consequential damages.
|
|
|
|
DOC software is provided with no support and without any obligation on
|
|
the part of Washington University, UC Irvine, Vanderbilt University,
|
|
their employees, or students to assist in its use, correction,
|
|
modification, or enhancement. A [20]number of companies around the
|
|
world provide commercial support for DOC software, however. DOC
|
|
software is Y2K-compliant, as long as the underlying OS platform is
|
|
Y2K-compliant. Likewise, DOC software is compliant with the new US
|
|
daylight savings rule passed by Congress as "The Energy Policy Act of
|
|
2005," which established new daylight savings times (DST) rules for
|
|
the United States that expand DST as of March 2007. Since DOC software
|
|
obtains time/date and calendaring information from operating systems
|
|
users will not be affected by the new DST rules as long as they
|
|
upgrade their operating systems accordingly.
|
|

The names ACE(TM), TAO(TM), CIAO(TM), DAnCE(TM), CoSMIC(TM),

be used to endorse or promote products or services derived from this
