+ Individual Contributor License Agreement ("Agreement") V2.0
+ http://www.apache.org/licenses/
+
+Thank you for your interest in XMLUnit project.
+
+In order to clarify the intellectual property license granted with
+Contributions from any person or entity, the developers of the XMLUnit
+project must have a Contributor License Agreement ("CLA") on file that
+has been signed by each Contributor, indicating agreement to the
+license terms below. This license is for your protection as a
+Contributor as well as the protection of its users; it does not change
+your rights to use your own Contributions for any other purpose. If
+you have not already done so, please complete and send an original
+signed Agreement to a project administrator of XMLUnit's sourceforge
+project - either as a scanned document via email or by mail. A list
+of project administrators and their postal addresses can be found
+at https://xmlunit.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/xmlunit/legal/admins.html
+
+Please read this document carefully before signing and keep a copy for
+your records.

+You accept and agree to the following terms and conditions for Your
+present and future Contributions submitted to the project. In return,
+the project's developers shall not use Your Contributions in a way
+that is contrary to the public benefit. Except for the license granted
+herein to the developers of the project and recipients of software
+distributed by them, You reserve all right, title, and interest in and
+to Your Contributions.
+
+1. Definitions.
+
+ "You" (or "Your") shall mean the copyright owner or legal entity
+ authorized by the copyright owner that is making this Agreement
+ with the developers of the project. For legal entities, the entity
+ making a Contribution and all other entities that control, are
+ controlled by, or are under common control with that entity are
+ considered to be a single Contributor. For the purposes of this
+ definition, "control" means (i) the power, direct or indirect, to
+ cause the direction or management of such entity, whether by
+ contract or otherwise, or (ii) ownership of fifty percent (50%) or
+ more of the outstanding shares, or (iii) beneficial ownership of
+ such entity.
+
+ "Contribution" shall mean any original work of authorship,
+ including any modifications or additions to an existing work, that
+ is intentionally submitted by You to the developers for inclusion
+ in, or documentation of, any of the products owned or managed by
+ them (the "Work"). For the purposes of this definition, "submitted"
+ means any form of electronic, verbal, or written communication sent
+ to the XMLUnit project or its representatives, including but not
+ limited to communication on electronic mailing lists, source code
+ control systems, and issue tracking systems that are managed by, or
+ on behalf of, the project for the purpose of discussing and
+ improving the Work, but excluding communication that is
+ conspicuously marked or otherwise designated in writing by You as
+ "Not a Contribution."
+
+2. Grant of Copyright License. Subject to the terms and conditions of
+ this Agreement, You hereby grant to the developers of the XMLUnit
+ project and to recipients of software distributed by them a
+ perpetual, worldwide, non-exclusive, no-charge, royalty-free,
+ irrevocable copyright license to reproduce, prepare derivative
+ works of, publicly display, publicly perform, sublicense, and
+ distribute Your Contributions and such derivative works.
+
+3. Grant of Patent License. Subject to the terms and conditions of
+ this Agreement, You hereby grant to the developers of the XMLUnit
+ project and to
+ recipients of software distributed by them a perpetual,
+ worldwide, non-exclusive, no-charge, royalty-free, irrevocable
+ (except as stated in this section) patent license to make, have
+ made, use, offer to sell, sell, import, and otherwise transfer the
+ Work, where such license applies only to those patent claims
+ licensable by You that are necessarily infringed by Your
+ Contribution(s) alone or by combination of Your Contribution(s)
+ with the Work to which such Contribution(s) was submitted. If any
+ entity institutes patent litigation against You or any other entity
+ (including a cross-claim or counterclaim in a lawsuit) alleging
+ that your Contribution, or the Work to which you have contributed,
+ constitutes direct or contributory patent infringement, then any
+ patent licenses granted to that entity under this Agreement for
+ that Contribution or Work shall terminate as of the date such
+ litigation is filed.
+
+4. You represent that you are legally entitled to grant the above
+ license. If your employer(s) has rights to intellectual property
+ that you create that includes your Contributions, you represent
+ that you have received permission to make Contributions on behalf
+ of that employer, that your employer has waived such rights for
+ your Contributions to the developers of the XMLUnit project, or
+ that your employer has executed a separate Corporate CLA with them.
+
+5. You represent that each of Your Contributions is Your original
+ creation (see section 7 for submissions on behalf of others). You
+ represent that Your Contribution submissions include complete
+ details of any third-party license or other restriction (including,
+ but not limited to, related patents and trademarks) of which you
+ are personally aware and which are associated with any part of Your
+ Contributions.
+
+6. You are not expected to provide support for Your Contributions,
+ except to the extent You desire to provide support. You may provide
+ support for free, for a fee, or not at all. Unless required by
+ applicable law or agreed to in writing, You provide Your
+ Contributions on an "AS IS" BASIS, WITHOUT WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS
+ OF ANY KIND, either express or implied, including, without
+ limitation, any warranties or conditions of TITLE, NON-
+ INFRINGEMENT, MERCHANTABILITY, or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.
+
+7. Should You wish to submit work that is not Your original creation,
+ You may submit it to the developers of the XMLUnit project
+ separately from any Contribution, identifying the complete details
+ of its source and of any license or other restriction (including,
+ but not limited to, related patents, trademarks, and license
+ agreements) of which you are personally aware, and conspicuously
+ marking the work as "Submitted on behalf of a third-party: [named
+ here]".
+
+8. You agree to notify the developers of the XMLUnit project of any
+ facts or circumstances of which you become aware that would make
+ these representations inaccurate in any respect.
