  7. University, [8]University of California, Irvine, and [9]Vanderbilt
  8. University, Copyright (c) 1993-2018, all rights reserved. Since DOC
  9. software is open-source, freely available software, you are free to
  10. use, modify, copy, and distribute--perpetually and irrevocably--the
  11. DOC software source code and object code produced from the source, as
  12. well as copy and distribute modified versions of this software. You
  13. must, however, include this copyright statement along with any code
  14. built using DOC software that you release. No copyright statement
  15. needs to be provided if you just ship binary executables of your
  16. software products.
  17. You can use DOC software in commercial and/or binary software releases
  18. and are under no obligation to redistribute any of your source code
  19. that is built using DOC software. Note, however, that you may not
  20. misappropriate the DOC software code, such as copyrighting it yourself
  21. or claiming authorship of the DOC software code, in a way that will
  22. prevent DOC software from being distributed freely using an
  23. open-source development model. You needn't inform anyone that you're
  24. using DOC software in your software, though we encourage you to let
  25. [10]us know so we can promote your project in the [11]DOC software
  26. success stories.
  27. The [12]ACE, [13]TAO, [14]CIAO, [15]DAnCE, and [16]CoSMIC web sites
  28. are maintained by the [17]DOC Group at the [18]Institute for Software
  29. Integrated Systems (ISIS) and the [19]Center for Distributed Object
  30. Computing of Washington University, St. Louis for the development of
  31. open-source software as part of the open-source software community.
  32. Submissions are provided by the submitter ``as is'' with no warranties
  33. whatsoever, including any warranty of merchantability, noninfringement
  34. of third party intellectual property, or fitness for any particular
  35. purpose. In no event shall the submitter be liable for any direct,
  36. indirect, special, exemplary, punitive, or consequential damages,
  37. including without limitation, lost profits, even if advised of the
  38. possibility of such damages. Likewise, DOC software is provided as is
  39. with no warranties of any kind, including the warranties of design,
  40. merchantability, and fitness for a particular purpose,
  41. noninfringement, or arising from a course of dealing, usage or trade
  42. practice. Washington University, UC Irvine, Vanderbilt University,
  43. their employees, and students shall have no liability with respect to
  44. the infringement of copyrights, trade secrets or any patents by DOC
  45. software or any part thereof. Moreover, in no event will Washington
  46. University, UC Irvine, or Vanderbilt University, their employees, or
  47. students be liable for any lost revenue or profits or other special,
  48. indirect and consequential damages.
  49. DOC software is provided with no support and without any obligation on
  50. the part of Washington University, UC Irvine, Vanderbilt University,
  51. their employees, or students to assist in its use, correction,
  52. modification, or enhancement. A [20]number of companies around the
  53. world provide commercial support for DOC software, however. DOC
  54. software is Y2K-compliant, as long as the underlying OS platform is
  55. Y2K-compliant. Likewise, DOC software is compliant with the new US
  56. daylight savings rule passed by Congress as "The Energy Policy Act of
  57. 2005," which established new daylight savings times (DST) rules for
  58. the United States that expand DST as of March 2007. Since DOC software
  59. obtains time/date and calendaring information from operating systems
  60. users will not be affected by the new DST rules as long as they
  61. upgrade their operating systems accordingly.
  62. The names ACE(TM), TAO(TM), CIAO(TM), DAnCE(TM), CoSMIC(TM),
  63. Washington University, UC Irvine, and Vanderbilt University, may not
  64. be used to endorse or promote products or services derived from this
  65. source without express written permission from Washington University,

  67. to call products or services derived from this source ACE(TM),

  69. permission for the name Washington University, UC Irvine, or

  72. let [21]me know.
