[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,

Copyright (c) 1993-2004, all rights reserved. Since DOC software is

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

You can use DOC software in proprietary software 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 [11]us know so we can promote your project in
the [12]DOC software success stories..

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 [13]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.
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

indirect and consequential damages.
The [14]ACE, [15]TAO, [16]CIAO, and [17]CoSMIC web sites are
maintained by the [18]DOC Group at the [19]Institute for Software
Integrated Systems (ISIS) and the [20]Center for Distributed Object
Computing of Washington University, St. Louis for the development of
open-source software as part of the [21]open-source software
community. By submitting comments, suggestions, code, code snippets,
