2. Common Public License (CPL)
------------------------------

THE ACCOMPANYING  PROGRAM IS PROVIDED  UNDER THE TERMS OF  THIS COMMON
PUBLIC LICENSE ("AGREEMENT"). ANY USE, REPRODUCTION OR DISTRIBUTION OF
THE PROGRAM CONSTITUTES RECIPIENT'S ACCEPTANCE OF THIS AGREEMENT.

1. DEFINITIONS

"Contribution" means:

      a) in the case of  the initial Contributor, the initial code and
      documentation distributed under this Agreement, and
      b) in the case of each subsequent Contributor:

      i) changes to the Program, and

      ii) additions to the Program;

      where  such changes  and/or additions  to the  Program originate
      from  and  are distributed  by  that  particular Contributor.  A
      Contribution 'originates' from a  Contributor if it was added to
      the Program by such Contributor  itself or anyone acting on such
      Contributor's behalf. Contributions  do not include additions to
      the  Program  which:  (i)   are  separate  modules  of  software
      distributed  in conjunction  with  the Program  under their  own
      license  agreement, and  (ii) are  not derivative  works  of the
      Program.

"Contributor" means any person or entity that distributes the Program.

"Licensed  Patents " mean  patent claims  licensable by  a Contributor
which are necessarily infringed by the use or sale of its Contribution
alone or when combined with the Program.

"Program" means the Contributions  distributed in accordance with this
Agreement.

"Recipient"  means   anyone  who  receives  the   Program  under  this
Agreement, including all Contributors.

2. GRANT OF RIGHTS

      a)  Subject to  the terms  of this  Agreement,  each Contributor
      hereby grants Recipient a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free
      copyright  license to  reproduce, prepare  derivative  works of,
      publicly  display, publicly  perform, distribute  and sublicense
      the  Contribution   of  such  Contributor,  if   any,  and  such
      derivative works, in source code and object code form.

      b)  Subject to  the terms  of this  Agreement,  each Contributor
      hereby grants Recipient a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free
      patent license under Licensed  Patents to make, use, sell, offer
      to sell, import and  otherwise transfer the Contribution of such
      Contributor, if any,  in source code and object  code form. This
      patent   license  shall   apply  to   the  combination   of  the
      Contribution and the Program if, at the time the Contribution is
      added  by the  Contributor,  such addition  of the  Contribution
      causes  such   combination  to   be  covered  by   the  Licensed
      Patents.  The  patent  license  shall  not apply  to  any  other
      combinations which include the  Contribution. No hardware per se
      is licensed hereunder.

      c) Recipient  understands that although  each Contributor grants
      the  licenses   to  its  Contributions  set   forth  herein,  no
      assurances are provided by any Contributor that the Program does
      not infringe the patent or other intellectual property rights of
      any other  entity. Each  Contributor disclaims any  liability to
      Recipient  for  claims brought  by  any  other  entity based  on
      infringement of intellectual property  rights or otherwise. As a
      condition  to   exercising  the  rights   and  licenses  granted
      hereunder, each Recipient  hereby assumes sole responsibility to
      secure  any  other   intellectual  property  rights  needed,  if
      any. For example, if a third party patent license is required to
      allow  Recipient to  distribute the  Program, it  is Recipient's
      responsibility to  acquire that license  before distributing the
      Program.

      d)  Each Contributor  represents that  to its  knowledge  it has
      sufficient  copyright rights  in  its Contribution,  if any,  to
      grant the copyright license set forth in this Agreement.

3. REQUIREMENTS

A Contributor may choose to distribute the Program in object code form
under its own license agreement, provided that:

      a) it complies with the  terms and conditions of this Agreement;
      and

      b) its license agreement:

      i)  effectively  disclaims on  behalf  of  all Contributors  all
      warranties  and  conditions,   express  and  implied,  including
      warranties  or  conditions of  title  and non-infringement,  and
      implied warranties or  conditions of merchantability and fitness
      for a particular purpose;

      ii)  effectively  excludes on  behalf  of  all Contributors  all
      liability  for  damages,  including direct,  indirect,  special,
      incidental and consequential damages, such as lost profits;

      iii) states that any provisions which differ from this Agreement
      are  offered by  that Contributor  alone  and not  by any  other
      party; and

      iv) states  that source code  for the Program is  available from
      such Contributor,  and informs licensees  how to obtain it  in a
      reasonable manner  on or through  a medium customarily  used for
      software exchange.

When the Program is made available in source code form:

      a) it must be made available under this Agreement; and 

      b) a copy  of this Agreement must be included  with each copy of
      the Program.

Contributors may  not remove or alter any  copyright notices contained
within the Program.

Each  Contributor  must  identify  itself  as the  originator  of  its
Contribution, if  any, in a  manner that reasonably  allows subsequent
Recipients to identify the originator of the Contribution.

4. COMMERCIAL DISTRIBUTION

Commercial    distributors   of    software    may   accept    certain
responsibilities with respect to  end users, business partners and the
like. While this license is  intended to facilitate the commercial use
of  the  Program,  the  Contributor  who includes  the  Program  in  a
commercial product  offering should do so  in a manner  which does not
create  potential liability  for other  Contributors. Therefore,  if a
Contributor  includes the  Program in  a commercial  product offering,
such  Contributor ("Commercial Contributor")  hereby agrees  to defend
and  indemnify  every  other Contributor  ("Indemnified  Contributor")
against any losses, damages  and costs (collectively "Losses") arising
from claims, lawsuits and other legal actions brought by a third party
against the Indemnified  Contributor to the extent caused  by the acts
or  omissions of such  Commercial Contributor  in connection  with its
distribution  of the  Program in  a commercial  product  offering. The
obligations  in this  section do  not apply  to any  claims  or Losses
relating   to   any    actual   or   alleged   intellectual   property
infringement. In order to qualify, an Indemnified Contributor must: a)
promptly notify  the Commercial Contributor in writing  of such claim,
and b) allow the Commercial Contributor to control, and cooperate with
the Commercial Contributor in,  the defense and any related settlement
negotiations. The Indemnified Contributor  may participate in any such
claim at its own expense.

For example, a  Contributor might include the Program  in a commercial
product  offering, Product X.  That Contributor  is then  a Commercial
Contributor.  If that  Commercial Contributor  then  makes performance
claims, or  offers warranties related to Product  X, those performance
claims and warranties are such Commercial Contributor's responsibility
alone. Under  this section, the  Commercial Contributor would  have to
defend  claims  against  the   other  Contributors  related  to  those
performance claims and  warranties, and if a court  requires any other
Contributor to pay any damages as a result, the Commercial Contributor
must pay those damages.

5. NO WARRANTY

EXCEPT  AS EXPRESSLY  SET  FORTH  IN THIS  AGREEMENT,  THE PROGRAM  IS
PROVIDED ON AN "AS IS"  BASIS, WITHOUT WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS OF ANY
KIND,  EITHER EXPRESS  OR IMPLIED  INCLUDING, WITHOUT  LIMITATION, ANY
WARRANTIES OR  CONDITIONS OF TITLE,  NON-INFRINGEMENT, MERCHANTABILITY
OR  FITNESS  FOR  A  PARTICULAR  PURPOSE.  Each  Recipient  is  solely
responsible   for  determining  the   appropriateness  of   using  and
distributing  the Program and  assumes all  risks associated  with its
exercise of rights under this  Agreement, including but not limited to
the  risks and  costs of  program errors,  compliance  with applicable
laws,  damage  to  or  loss   of  data,  programs  or  equipment,  and
unavailability or interruption of operations.

6. DISCLAIMER OF LIABILITY

EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN THIS AGREEMENT, NEITHER RECIPIENT NOR
ANY CONTRIBUTORS  SHALL HAVE ANY  LIABILITY FOR ANY  DIRECT, INDIRECT,
INCIDENTAL,  SPECIAL, EXEMPLARY,  OR CONSEQUENTIAL  DAMAGES (INCLUDING
WITHOUT LIMITATION LOST PROFITS), HOWEVER  CAUSED AND ON ANY THEORY OF
LIABILITY, WHETHER  IN CONTRACT, STRICT LIABILITY,  OR TORT (INCLUDING
NEGLIGENCE  OR  OTHERWISE)  ARISING IN  ANY  WAY  OUT  OF THE  USE  OR
DISTRIBUTION  OF THE  PROGRAM OR  THE EXERCISE  OF ANY  RIGHTS GRANTED
HEREUNDER, EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

7. GENERAL

If any provision  of this Agreement is invalid  or unenforceable under
applicable law, it shall not  affect the validity or enforceability of
the  remainder of  the terms  of this  Agreement, and  without further
action by the parties hereto,  such provision shall be reformed to the
minimum extent necessary to make such provision valid and enforceable.

If Recipient  institutes patent litigation against  a Contributor with
respect to a patent applicable to software (including a cross-claim or
counterclaim in a  lawsuit), then any patent licenses  granted by that
Contributor to such Recipient  under this Agreement shall terminate as
of  the date  such  litigation  is filed.  In  addition, if  Recipient
institutes   patent  litigation  against   any  entity   (including  a
cross-claim or  counterclaim in a  lawsuit) alleging that  the Program
itself (excluding  combinations of the Program with  other software or
hardware) infringes such  Recipient's patent(s), then such Recipient's
rights granted under Section 2(b)  shall terminate as of the date such
litigation is filed.

All  Recipient's rights  under this  Agreement shall  terminate  if it
fails to comply  with any of the material terms  or conditions of this
Agreement and  does not  cure such failure  in a reasonable  period of
time after  becoming aware of  such noncompliance. If  all Recipient's
rights under  this Agreement terminate, Recipient agrees  to cease use
and   distribution   of   the    Program   as   soon   as   reasonably
practicable. However, Recipient's obligations under this Agreement and
any  licenses  granted by  Recipient  relating  to  the Program  shall
continue and survive.

Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute copies of this Agreement,
but in order  to avoid inconsistency the Agreement  is copyrighted and
may only  be modified in  the following manner. The  Agreement Steward
reserves the  right to publish  new versions (including  revisions) of
this  Agreement from time  to time.  No one  other than  the Agreement
Steward has  the right  to modify this  Agreement. IBM is  the initial
Agreement Steward. IBM  may assign the responsibility to  serve as the
Agreement Steward to  a suitable separate entity. Each  new version of
the  Agreement will  be  given a  distinguishing  version number.  The
Program (including Contributions) may always be distributed subject to
the version of the Agreement under which it was received. In addition,
after a  new version  of the Agreement  is published,  Contributor may
elect to  distribute the  Program (including its  Contributions) under
the new version. Except as  expressly stated in Sections 2(a) and 2(b)
above, Recipient  receives no rights  or licenses to  the intellectual
property of  any Contributor under this  Agreement, whether expressly,
by implication, estoppel  or otherwise. All rights in  the Program not
expressly granted under this Agreement are reserved.

This Agreement  is governed by the laws  of the State of  New York and
the intellectual  property laws  of the United  States of  America. No
party to this Agreement will bring a legal action under this Agreement
more than one year after the  cause of action arose. Each party waives
its rights to a jury trial in any resulting litigation.
