-Copyright and Licensing Information for ACE(TM), TAO(TM), CIAO(TM), and 
-CoSMIC(TM)
-ACE(TM), TAO(TM), CIAO(TM), and CoSMIC(TM) (henceforth referred to as 
-"DOC software") are copyrighted by Douglas C. Schmidt and his research 
-group at Washington University, University of California, Irvine, and 
-Vanderbilt University, Copyright (c) 1993-2006, 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 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 us know so we can promote your project in 
-the DOC software success stories.
-
-The ACE, TAO, CIAO, and CoSMIC web sites are maintained by the DOC Group 
-at the Institute for Software Integrated Systems (ISIS) and the 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 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.
