This document defines permission items of Risa/Asir Version 991201
("asir2000" as a nickname), and its all preceding non-commercial
binary versions of Risa/Asir, an experimental computer algebra system
(``Risa/Asir'') developed at FUJITSU LABORATORIES LIMITED (``FLL'' or
``we'').

Risa/Asir includes binaries of other parties' contribution whose use
is permitted for non-profit purposes.

They are 
(1) Hans-J. Boehm's Garbage Collector, and 
(2) Henri Cohen's PARI. 
Thus, permission granted hereunder is also subject to the conditions 
as stated below in 4.

Risa/Asir is created as an experimental system and still under ongoing
updates and technical evolution.  Therefore, any comment concerning
Risa/Asir based on its use is welcomed and such comment should be
addressed to:

               e-mail: {noryo,takesima}@flab.fujitsu.co.jp.

[1. Permission:]

Permission to use, copy and re-distribute Risa/Asir and its
documentation for NON-PROFIT PURPOSES is hereby granted without fee,
provided that

(1a) the above copyright notice appears in all copies, 

(1b) both the copyright notice and the distribution notice appear in
the supporting documentation, and that

(1c) on publication, oral or printed, of the result obtained through
use of Risa/Asir, an explicit reference to Risa/Asir is made.

For profitable purposes, the user is requested to make a special
contract with FLL. (e-mail: takesima@flab.fujitsu.co.jp)

[2. Modification:]
 We think that modification of Risa/Asir is difficult and there is no
need for modification for ordinary users.  If any user,however, wants
to modify Risa/Asir, such user is requested to contact to
FLL. (e-mail: takesima@flab.fujitsu.co.jp)

[3. Disclaimer of warranty:]

(3a) Risa/Asir AND ITS SUPPORTING DOCUMENTATION ARE PROVIDED AS
IS. FLL MAKES ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING
WITHOUT LIMITATION THOSE FOR MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A
PARTICULAR PURPOSE, REGARDING Risa/Asir AND ITS SUPPORTING
DOCUMENTATION AND THE USE THEREOF. ANY USE IS AT THE USER'S OWN RISK.

(3b) In no event, FLL shall become liable to the user or any other
party for any loss or damage, consequential or otherwise, arising from
the use of Risa/Asir by the user or any other party, including but not
limited to loss of data or data being rendered inaccurate or losses
sustained by the user or any other third party.

[4. Other parties' proprietary:]

We note that Risa/Asir uses the following publicly spread softwares.
All rights regarding the softwares are owned by the respective proper
parties as is noted below.

Although all rights of those softwares are reserved by the respective
parties, they have no responsibilities for any results which may arise
in using them through Risa/Asir. Risa/Asir, indeed, owes very much to
those excellent publicly spread softwares for making up its weak
points. But any blames, criticism and comments should be directed to
us in case of any inconvenience.

(4a) Boehm's Garbage Collector(version 5.0alpha2)

Risa/Asir owes its memory management to the garbage collector first
developed by Hans-J. Boehm and his colleagues.  The following is 
an excerpt of its README file.

Permission to modify the code and to distribute modified code is granted,
provided the above notices are retained, and a notice that the code was
modified is included with the above copyright notice.

This is version 5.0alpha2 of a conservative garbage collector for C and C++.

(4b) PARI (PARI/GP, version 2.0.17.beta)

Multi-precision floating point number operations (arithmetic,
mathematical function evaluation and many other related functions) of
Risa/Asir is performed by PARI system originally developed by C. Batut,
D. Bernardi, H. Cohen and M. Olivier.

We provide, for users' convenience, Risa/Asir with PARI binaries
linked together, though we could leave installation and linkage of
PARI with the interface which we have created in Risa/Asir as a matter
for users.

Here we cite the copyright notice of "PARI/GP, version 2.0.17.beta"
from its COPYRIGHT file.
