SCCS: @(#)Licence 1.9 (99/11/24) VSX-PCTS Test Suite Preamble -------- Testing is essential for proper development and maintenance of standards-based products. For buyers: adequate conformance testing leads to reduced integration costs and protection of investments in applications, software and people. For software developers: conformance testing of platforms and middleware greatly reduces the cost of developing and maintaining multi-platform application software. For suppliers: In-depth testing increases customer satisfaction and keeps development and support costs in check. API conformance is highly measurable and suppliers who claim it must be able to substantiate that claim. As such, since these are benchmark measures of conformance, we feel the integrity of test tools is of importance. In order to preserve the integrity of the existing conformance modes of this test package and to permit recipients of modified versions of this package to run the original test modes, this license requires that the original test modes be preserved. If you find a bug in one of the standards mode test cases, please let us know so we can feed this back into the original, and also raise any specification issues with the appropriate bodies (for example the POSIX committees). +++++++++++++VSX-PCTS END USER LICENCE+++++++++++ BY RETRIEVING THIS DISTRIBUTION OF VSX-PCTS, YOU ARE CONSENTING TO BE BOUND BY THIS AGREEMENT.
