| <p>The Original Code of SAXON comprises all those components which are not explicitly attributed |
| to other parties. It does not include the Ælfred parser, which is redistributed under |
| the licence described below.</p> |
| |
| <p>The Initial Developer of the Original Code was Michael Kay. |
| Individual modules identified as being created by James Clark, David Megginson, or John Cowan include |
| separate IPR notices. All Rights Reserved.</p> |
| |
| <p> |
| <small><i>Until January 2001 Michael Kay worked for International Computers Limited (ICL, now part |
| of Fujitsu), and from February 2001 to January 2004 he worked for Software AG. These two companies |
| both sponsored the development of Saxon and authorised its release under this license, but are not |
| themselves parties to the license. Michael Kay now runs his own company, Saxonica, which has taken |
| over all responsibility for Saxon development and support.</i></small> |
| </p> |
| |
| <p> |
| <small><i>For reasons of continuity, |
| the icl.com domain name is retained in package names and namespace URIs with the tacit |
| consent of ICL, but this should not be taken to imply any ongoing ICL involvement.</small> |

| |
| <p>If you produce a product that includes or requires SAXON, please refer to it as |
| "The SAXON XSLT Processor from Michael Kay", and include the URL of the |
| home page, which is at |
| <a HREF="http://saxon.sourceforge.net/">http://saxon.sourceforge.net/</a>.</p> |
| |
| <p>There is no guarantee of technical support, though I am usually able to answer enquiries |
| within a few days. Please subscribe to the mailing list available at |
| <a href="http://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/saxon-help"/> |
| http://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/saxon-help</a> and raise any enquiries there. |
| Also check the Saxon project pages on sourceforge for details of known errors; all bugs are |
| listed there as soon as I have sufficient evidence to describe the nature of the problem.</p> |

| <h2>Ælfred</h2> |
| |
| <p>Included in the Saxon distribution is a modified version of the Ælfred XML parser |
| originally developed by David Megginson at Microstar (no longer in existence). |
| I have taken the relevant part of |
| <A href="mailto:[email protected]">David Brownell</a>'s |
| <a href="http://home.pacbell.net/david-b/xml/">Ælfred2</a> distribution, repackaged it, |
| and fixed a few bugs. All changes are clearly documented in the source code.</p> |
| |
| <p>This is distributed under the terms of Microstar's terms and conditions, which are as follows:</p> |

| <p>The version included with Saxon is David Brownell's code of 26 Feb 2000, |
| modified as follows:</p> |
| |
| <ul> |
| <li>Changed the package name to com.icl.saxon.aelfred to prevent any accidental confusion with the |
| original Microstar code or with David Brownell's version. |
| </li> |
| <li>Fixed several bugs: (1) a bug in namespace handling (where an attribute xxx:name precedes the xmlns:xxx |
| declaration) (2) poor diagnostics when end of file occurs prematurely |
| </li> |
| <li>Subsetting the code to include only the XML non-validating parser and SAX driver, with appropriate |
| changes to the setFeature() and getFeature() methods. |
| </li> |
| <li>Some further changes made by David Brownell up to June 2001 have been incorporated.</li> |
| </ul> |
