This program is effective immediately and continues until June 30, 1993. The special pricing is ONLY available to customers who purchase this product directly from SunSoft. The OpenWindows 3.0 source product includes OLIT 3.0 source, which has been in considerable demand by developers. This promotion makes OLIT 3.0 Source available to customers as a reference material for GUI development using OLIT. SunSoft's principal objective is to provide developers with useful reference material to quickly overcome programming difficulties in GUI development. Consequently, the caveat is the OLIT 3.0 source is being provided for Read-Only purposes. The Technology License Agreement for Special OLIT Promo, associated with this program, clearly states this restriction. QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS: ---------------------- Q. Why is SunSoft conducting this marketing program? A. There was a lot of demand for this program. Developers need reliable reference material for rapid GUI development using OLIT.

This program allows developers to READ ONLY and review the OLIT3.0 source code to make informed judgments for their GUI development activity.
