 The Specification is protected by copyright and the information described therein may be protected by one or more U.S. patents, foreign patents, or pending applications.  Except as provided under the following license, no part of the Specification may be reproduced in any form by any means without the prior written authorization of Sun Microsystems, Inc. (\lq\lq Sun\rq\rq) and its licensors, if any.  Any use of the Specification and the information described therein will be governed by the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

 Subject to the terms and conditions of this license, including your compliance with Paragraphs 1 and 2 below, Sun hereby grants you a fully-paid, non-exclusive, non-transferable, limited license (without the right to sublicense) under Sun's intellectual property rights to:

 \begin{enumerate}
 \item Review the Specification for the purposes of evaluation. This includes:
 (i) developing implementations of the Specification for your internal, non-commercial use;
 (ii) discussing the Specification with any third party; and
 (iii) excerpting brief portions of the Specification in oral or written communications which discuss the Specification provided that such excerpts do not in the aggregate constitute a significant portion of the Technology.

 \item Distribute implementations of the Specification to third parties for their testing and evaluation use, provided that any such implementation:
 (i) does not modify, subset, superset or otherwise extend the Licensor Name Space, or include any public or protected packages, classes, Java interfaces, fields or methods within the Licensor Name Space other than those required/authorized by the Specification or Specifications being implemented;
 (ii) is clearly and prominently marked with the word \lq\lq UNTESTED\rq\rq\ or \lq\lq EARLY ACCESS\rq\rq\ or \lq\lq INCOMPATIBLE\rq\rq\  or \lq\lq UNSTABLE\rq\rq\ or \lq\lq BETA\rq\rq\ in any list of available builds and in proximity to every link initiating its download, where the list or link is under LicenseeÕs control; and
 (iii) includes the following notice:
 \lq\lq This is an implementation of an early-draft specification developed under the Java Community Process (JCP) and is made available for testing and evaluation purposes only. The code is not compatible with any specification of the JCP.\rq\rq\
 \end{enumerate}

 The grant set forth above concerning your distribution of implementations of the specification is contingent upon your agreement to terminate development and distribution of your Òearly draftÓ implementation as soon as feasible following final completion of the specification.  If you fail to do so, the foregoing grant shall be considered null and void.

 No provision of this Agreement shall be understood to restrict your ability to make and distribute to third parties applications written to the Specification.
 Other than this limited license, you acquire no right, title or interest in or to the Specification or any other Sun intellectual property, and the Specification may only be used in accordance with the license terms set forth herein. This license will expire on the earlier of: (a) two (2) years from the date of Release listed above; (b) the date on which the final version of the Specification is publicly released; or (c) the date on which the Java Specification Request (JSR) to which the Specification corresponds is withdrawn.  In addition, this license will terminate immediately without notice from Sun if you fail to comply with any provision of this license.  Upon termination, you must cease use of or destroy the Specification.

 \lq\lq Licensor Name Space\rq\rq\ means the public class or interface declarations whose names begin with \lq\lq java\rq\rq\ , \lq\lq javax\rq\rq\ , \lq\lq com.sun\rq\rq\  or their equivalents in any subsequent naming convention adopted by Sun through the Java Community Process, or any recognized successors or replacements thereof
