|
|
|

|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ You can use DOC software in commercial and/or binary software releases
|
|
|
+ and are under no obligation to redistribute any of your source code
|

|
|
|
+ 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

|
|
|
+ with no warranties of any kind, including the warranties of design,
|
|
|
+ merchantability, and fitness for a particular purpose,
|
|
|

|
|

|
|
|
+ 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.
