the Ælfred parser (see below), are subject to the Mozilla Public

the License for the specific language governing rights and limitations

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.

The Initial Developer of the Original Code is Michael Kay of
International Computers Limited. Individual modules identified as
being created by James Clark, David Megginson, or John Cowan include
separate IPR notices. All Rights Reserved.

Since February 2001 I (Michael Kay) have been an employee of Software
AG, and I continue to develop Saxon with the support and sponsorship
of that company. Technically, therefore, the "Initial Developer" no
longer exists (the form of words was deliberately chosen to reflect
the joint involvement of myself and ICL), so I now work as a
"Contributor". Other contributors are acknowledged individually in
comments attached to the relevant code modules.

iclway is an Internet Service Provider operated by ICL; however, the
fact that I continue to use this ISP for hosting Saxon does not imply
that ICL have any interest in the content of the site. Equally, for
reasons of continuity, I have kept the icl.com domain name in package
names and namespace URIs with the tacit consent of ICL, but this
should not be taken to imply any ongoing ICL involvement.

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 master copy, which is at
http://users.iclway.co.uk/mhkay/saxon/.

There is no guarantee of technical support, though I am usually able
to answer enquiries within a few days. Please register with the
mailing list available at http://saxon.xsl.listbot.com and raise any
enquiries there. Also check the list archives: I post lists of known
errors there from time to time.


Ælfred

Included in the Saxon distribution is a modified version of the Ælfred
XML parser from Microstar. I have taken the relevant part of David
Brownell's Ælfred2 distribution, repackaged it, and fixed a few
bugs. All changes are clearly documented in the source code.

This is distributed under the terms of Microstar's terms and
conditions, which are as follows:

         AElfred, Version 1.2

	modifications are clearly documented.

The version included with Saxon is David Brownell's code of 26 Feb
2000, modified as follows:

	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.

	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

	Subsetting the code to include only the XML non-validating
	parser and SAX driver, with appropriate changes to the setFeature()
	and getFeature() methods.

	Some further changes made by David Brownell up to June 2001
	have been incorporated.
