The Apache Software Foundation Apache Harmony Project Authorized Contributor Questionnaire v1.1 Please Note : This document and your answers are considered public information, and shall be part of the Apache Harmony project public records. Part I : Identification Please provide the following information Name : ___________________________________________ E-mail : ___________________________________________ Mailing address : ___________________________________________ ___________________________________________ ___________________________________________ ___________________________________________ Employer : ___________________________________________ Part II: Access to Repositories The Project is committed to producing an implementation of Java that can be licensed freely under the Apache License. To do this, we wish to know what, if any, previous exposure you have had to the source for any of the parts of a Java implementation including virtual machines, class libraries, tooling, etc. The following activities are not considered "accessing the source code" and would not generally disqualify you from committing to the related repository here at Apache Harmony a) Having a copy of src.jar (or equivalent) on a computer as long as you never viewed or edited the contents of the file. b) While running a debugger on a Java language program, having had occasion to step into the source code for the implementation as long as you did not attempt to understand or debug the implementation code itself. c) Having implemented "plug-ins" or other component software which interact with an implementation, but doing so only with reference to the published service provider interfaces. d) Have written or executed test cases that probed the behavior of an implementation as long as you did so with reference only to published specifications and interfaces. The following is a list of the components of the project each labeled with an ID (ex. JVM-1): VM -- VM-1 VM core (including JVMPI, JVMDI, JDWP, JVMTI, JNI, JIT, Memory Management/GC, OS Portability, Threading, etc) VM-X other ____________________________________________ Classlibrary ------------ CL-1 Applet (java.applet, javax.microedition.midlet.*, javax.microedition.xlet.*) CL-2 Archive (java.util.zip, java.util.jar) CL-3 Beans (java.beans) CL-4 Core (incl. lang, util, net, io, annotation, concurrent, NIO-channels, NIO-charset, text, javax.net, javax.microedition.io.*, javax.microedition.rms.*, javax.lang.rm.*, javax.microedition.rm.*, javax.microedition.fileconnection.*, javax.microedition.global.*) CL-5 Image IO (javax.imageio) CL-6 Instrument (java.lang.instrument) CL-7 JMX (javax.management) CL-8 Lang-management (java.lang.management) CL-9 Logging (java.util.logging) CL-10 Math (java.math) CL-11 ORB (javax.activity, javax.rmi.*, javax.transaction.*, org.omg.*) CL-12 Prefs (java.util.prefs) CL-13 Print (javax.print.*) CL-14 Regex (java.util.regex) CL-15 RMI (java.rmi.*) CL-16 Security (java.security.*, javax.security.*, org.ietf.jgss, javax.crypto, javax.microedition.pki, javacard.security, javax.microedition.securityservice) CL-17 Sound (javax.sound) CL-18 SQL (java.sql, javax.sql.*) CL-19 User Interface (java.awt.*, javax.swing.*, javax.accessibility, javax.microedition.agui.*, javax.microedition.lcdui.*, javax.microedition.customization.*, javax.microedition.m3g.*, javax.microedition.plaf.*, javax.microedition.m2g.*) CL-20 XML (javax.xml.*, org.w3c.*, org.xml.*, javax.microedition.xml.*) CL-21 JNDI (javax.naming.*) CL-22 javaCard Extensions (javacard.*, javax.microedition.jcrmi.*, javax.microedition.apdu.*) CL-23 Mobile Media (javax.microedition.media.*, javax.microedition.broadcast.*) CL-24 Mobile Extensions (javax.microedition.pim.*, javax.microedition.location.*, javax.microedition.sip.*, javax.imps.*, javax.microedition.payment.*, javax.microedition.telephony.*, javax.microedition.sensor.*, javax.microedition.contactless.*, javax.bluetooth.*, javax.obex.*, javax.serviceconnection.*, javax.wireless.messaging, javax.microedition.content.*) CL-X other ____________________________________________ Tools & Misc ------------ T-1 launcher (e.g. java.exe) T-2 javah T-3 javap T-4 javac T-5 jdb T-6 javadoc T-7 jar T-8 browser plugins T-X other ____________________________________________ Part III : General Exposure With the above activities a)-d) in mind, have you done any of the following to an implementation of one or more of the components listed above.
