R2CORBA LICENSE

R2CORBA (Licensed Product) is protected by copyright, and is distributed under the following terms.

R2CORBA (Ruby to CORBA) is an open source tool, developed by Remedy IT and written in Ruby, C++ and Java. It is designed to provide a CORBA mapping for the Ruby programming language.
Instead of going for a complete native Ruby mapping implementing a native Ruby ORB, R2CORBA aims at providing CORBA functionality through a Ruby extension using the DII and DSI interfaces of an existing CORBA ORB implementation.There are currently two flavors of this extension available:

an MRI Ruby extension written in Ruby and C/C++ using TAO (The ACE ORB).

a JRuby extension written in Ruby and Java using JacORB.

A native Ruby implementation of an OMG IDL compiler supplements this extension and provides powerful features like direct inclusion of IDL language modules into your Ruby programs without the need of precompiling.

Since R2CORBA is open source and free of licensing fees, you are free to use, modify, and distribute the source code, as long as you include this copyright statement.

In particular, you can use R2CORBA to build proprietary software and are under no obligation to redistribute any of your source code that is built using R2CORBA. Note, however, that you may not do anything to the R2CORBA code, such as copyrighting it yourself or claiming authorship of the R2CORBA code, that will prevent R2CORBA from being distributed freely using an open source development model.
