21*4882a593Smuzhiyun   You can use DOC software in commercial and/or binary software releases

24*4882a593Smuzhiyun   misappropriate the DOC software code, such as copyrighting it yourself
25*4882a593Smuzhiyun   or claiming authorship of the DOC software code, in a way that will

47*4882a593Smuzhiyun   practice. Washington University, UC Irvine, Vanderbilt University,
48*4882a593Smuzhiyun   their employees, and students shall have no liability with respect to
49*4882a593Smuzhiyun   the infringement of copyrights, trade secrets or any patents by DOC
50*4882a593Smuzhiyun   software or any part thereof. Moreover, in no event will Washington

55*4882a593Smuzhiyun   DOC software is provided with no support and without any obligation on
56*4882a593Smuzhiyun   the part of Washington University, UC Irvine, Vanderbilt University,
57*4882a593Smuzhiyun   their employees, or students to assist in its use, correction,
58*4882a593Smuzhiyun   modification, or enhancement. A [20]number of companies around the
59*4882a593Smuzhiyun   world provide commercial support for DOC software, however. DOC
60*4882a593Smuzhiyun   software is Y2K-compliant, as long as the underlying OS platform is
61*4882a593Smuzhiyun   Y2K-compliant. Likewise, DOC software is compliant with the new US
62*4882a593Smuzhiyun   daylight savings rule passed by Congress as "The Energy Policy Act of
63*4882a593Smuzhiyun   2005," which established new daylight savings times (DST) rules for
64*4882a593Smuzhiyun   the United States that expand DST as of March 2007. Since DOC software
65*4882a593Smuzhiyun   obtains time/date and calendaring information from operating systems
66*4882a593Smuzhiyun   users will not be affected by the new DST rules as long as they
67*4882a593Smuzhiyun   upgrade their operating systems accordingly.
