Hi Aler, It's unclear which group at MOT you're with, although the iDEN team in Florida has been actively using kXML since October/November of last year for MIDlet <-> Servlet communication. It's terrific to see extended use of kXML within MOT. The original contributor of kXML is Stefan Haustein (see CC), and the release you mention [.81] is available from the author under multiple licenses. Depending upon your lawyers at MOT, you may wish to request a license other than EPL/OPL (which requires that you contribute back changes to the kXML site), so that you can perform MOT specific extensions in either open or closed source models without returning them to the community. If you wish to have license terms other than EPL/OPL, contact Stefan at haustein@kimo.cs.uni-dortmund.de If you wish to comply with the license terms and find them acceptable, the high level requirements of the license are: 1> ATTRIBUTION: Place prominently in your online and printed documentation a copy of the EPL and a pointer back to http://kxml.enhydra.org for source and binaries. 2> MODIFICATION: Contribute back to http://kxml.enhydra.org all changes you make the source, binary, and documentation It is probably a good idea to check with Stefan privately regarding the .81 release to determine if there were any updates to the code in future releases (we're on version 1.12 now) that MOT requires for a stable, reliable commercial product. best regards, Keith -----Original Message----- From: enhydra-admin@enhydra.org [mailto:enhydra-admin@enhydra.org]On Behalf Of Aler Krishnan Sent: Tuesday, October 30, 2001 9:08 AM To: enhydra@enhydra.org Subject: Enhydra: Commercial usage of software downloaded from your site Hello, We'd like to integrate and distribute the kXML parser (older version kxml-0081) downloaded from your website, with our product. I'd appreciate if you could provide me with your licensing terms to do so. I downloaded the licenses (EPL 1.1 and OPL 1.0) from your website and would like to know whether there are any additional licenses required other than these two. Appreciate your reply. Thanks, Aler Krishnan |
