[1]ACE(TM), [2]TAO(TM), [3]CIAO(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) 1993-2005, all rights reserved. Since DOC software is
open-source, free 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 code built using DOC
software.
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 do
anything to the DOC software code, such as copyrighting it yourself or
claiming authorship of the DOC software code, 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, and [15]CoSMIC web sites are
maintained by the [16]DOC Group at the [17]Institute for Software
Integrated Systems (ISIS) and the [18]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. By
submitting comments, suggestions, code, code snippets, techniques
(including that of usage) and algorithms (collectively
``Submissions''), submitters acknowledge that they have the right to
do so, that any such Submissions are given freely and unreservedly,
and that they waive any claims to copyright or ownership. In addition,
submitters acknowledge that any such Submission might become part of
the copyright maintained on the overall body of code that comprises
the DOC software. By making a Submission, submitter agree to these
terms. Moreover, submitters acknowledge that the incorporation or
modification of such Submissions is entirely at the discretion of the
moderators of the open-source DOC software projects or their
designees.
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 [19]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.
The names ACE(TM), TAO(TM), CIAO(TM), CoSMIC(TM), Washington
