    Subject: sun.security.acl package license

Dear "java-security"

I am a developer using java in a major (for New Zealand at least) =20
development in New Zealand, as with all developments we look at ways we =20
can shave development time off our projects.

With this in mind, we need to implement ACL-based security to control =20
access to specific system functions and within system functions need to =20
restrict access based on the users permission (of course).

The requirements are relatively straight forward however, and the =20
sun.security.acl package will meet our needs adequately. I am a bit =20
hesitant in using code we do not have source for, and will not deploy =20
code to clients we do not have a license for.

Instead of developing our own code, is it possible to license from sun =20
the sun.security.acl package classses separately as developers - and pass =20=
=20
a license to our users (client) of the unmodified code, and/or to obtain =20
from you the source on an as-is basis and include it within our =20
deployment of the system? In either case what licensing requirements =20
would you place on us ?

I would like to hear what conditions you would apply, we DO NOT take =20
credit for work that is not our own, but wish to provide a cost effective =20=
=20
solution to our client.

An answer of NO, if appropriate would require that we build our own =20
classes based on the defined interfaces, we are quite capable of doing =20
this, however it would save us time if you would agree to this request.
