Betreff: Copyright and Licensing


Dear Mr. Schmidt, 

as a producer and developer of OO-ERP-Software we are going to use ACE and TAO code.

We have a question. The last sentence of the first paragraph in your Copyright
and Licensing Information for ACE and TAO states that we have to include this
copyright statement along with code built using ACE and TAO. Is it really enough
making a copyright along our C++ code? This notice wonīt be seen by users. 
Only programmers see this statement. Our chief developer suggests to put this 
information in the "about box" of our applications. 

Because of the predicate in your last paragraph it would be very nice to give us an answer. 
If it is in your sense please let us know your express written permission to make a copyright
notice in our "about box" and documentation. We donīt want to promote our products with the
names ACE and TAO. We just think making it obviousley that this software
profits by another code is self-evident and politely.

We look forward to hear from you soon.

Yours sincerely
