+                Java(TM) Platform, Standard Edition
+                        Runtime Environment
+                             Version 6
+
+
+The Java(TM) Platform, Standard Edition Runtime Environment (JRE(TM)),
+excluding the JavaFX(TM) runtime, is intended for software developers 
+and vendors to redistribute with their applications.
+
+The Java SE Runtime Environment contains the Java virtual machine,
+runtime class libraries, and Java application launcher that are
+necessary to run programs written in the Java programming language.
+It is not a development environment and does not contain development
+tools such as compilers or debuggers.  For development tools, see the
+Java SE Development Kit (JDK(TM)). The JRE installation triggers the 
+download of the JavaFX runtime. The JavaFX runtime is also available 
+separately, and is not part of the JRE. For information on JavaFX, and 
+how to make changes, go to: http://java.com/javafx
+
+
+=======================================================================
+     Deploying Applications with the Java SE Runtime Environment
+=======================================================================
+
+When you deploy an application written in the Java programming
+language, your software bundle will probably consist of the following
+parts:
+
+    Your own class, resource, and data files.
+    The Java SE Runtime Environment.
+    An installation procedure or program.
+
+You already have the first part, of course. The remainder of this
+document covers the other two parts. See also the Notes for Developers
+page on the Java Software website:
+
+    http://java.sun.com/javase/6/webnotes/runtime.html
+
+-----------------------------------------------------------------------
+Java Platform, Standard Edition Runtime Environment (JRE)
+-----------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+To run your application, a user needs the Java SE Runtime Environment,
+which is freely available from Sun. Or, you can redistribute the
+Java SE Runtime Environment for free with your application, according
+to the terms of the Java SE Platform Runtime Environment's license. The 
+JavaFX runtime is only required to run applications written in the 
+JavaFX scripting language; it is freely available from Sun, and must
+not be redistributed with your application.
+
+The final step in the deployment process occurs when the software is
+installed on an individual user's system. Installation consists of copying
+software onto the user's system, then configuring the user's system
+to support that software.  You should ensure that your installation
+procedure does not overwrite existing JRE installations, as they may
+be required by other applications.
+
+
+=======================================================================
+      Redistribution of the Java SE Runtime Environment (JRE)
+=======================================================================
+
+    --------------------------------------------------------
+    NOTE - The license for this software does not allow the
+    redistribution of beta and other pre-release versions.
+    --------------------------------------------------------
+
+Subject to the terms and conditions of the Software License
+Agreement and the obligations, restrictions, and exceptions set
+forth below, You may reproduce and distribute the Software (and
+also portions of Software identified below as Redistributable),
+provided that:
+
+(a) you distribute the Software complete and unmodified and only
+    bundled as part of your applets and applications ("Programs"),
+
+(b) your Programs add significant and primary functionality to the
+    Software,
+
+(c) your Programs are only intended to run on Java-enabled general
+    purpose desktop computers and servers,
+
+(d) you distribute Software for the sole purpose of running your
+    Programs,
+
+(e) you do not distribute additional software intended to replace
+    any component(s) of the Software,
+
+(f) you do not remove or alter any proprietary legends or notices
+    contained in or on the Software,
+
+(g) you only distribute the Software subject to a license agreement
+    that protects Sun's interests consistent with the terms
+    contained in this Agreement, and
+
+(h) you agree to defend and indemnify Sun and its licensors from

+    that arises or results from the use or distribution of any and
+    all Programs and/or Software.
+
+The term "vendors" used here refers to licensees, developers, and
+independent software vendors (ISVs) who license and distribute the
+Java SE Runtime Environment with their programs.
+
+Vendors must follow the terms of the Java SE Runtime Environment Binary
+Code License agreement.
+
+-----------------------------------------------------------------------
+Required vs. Optional Files
+-----------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+The files that make up the Java SE Runtime Environment are divided into
+two categories: required and optional.  Optional files may be excluded
+from redistributions of the Java SE Runtime Environment at the
+vendor's discretion.
+
+The following section contains a list of the files and directories that
+may optionally be omitted from redistributions with the Java SE Runtime
+Environment.  All files not in these lists of optional files must be
+included in redistributions of the runtime environment.
+
+-----------------------------------------------------------------------
+Optional Files and Directories
+-----------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+The following files may be optionally excluded from redistributions.
+These files are located in the jre1.6.0_<version> directory, where
+<version> is the update version number.  Solaris and Linux filenames
+and separators are shown. Windows executables have the ".exe" suffix.
+Corresponding files with _g in the name can also be excluded.
+The corresponding man pages should be excluded for any excluded
+executables (with paths listed below beginning with bin/ , 
+for the Solaris(TM) Operating System and Linux). 
+
+    lib/charsets.jar
+	Character conversion classes
+    lib/ext/
+	sunjce_provider.jar - the SunJCE provider for Java
+	  Cryptography APIs
+	localedata.jar - contains many of the resources
+	  needed for non US English locales
+	ldapsec.jar - contains security features supported
+	  by the LDAP service provider
+	dnsns.jar - for the InetAddress wrapper of JNDI DNS provider
+    bin/rmid
+	Java RMI Activation System Daemon
+    bin/rmiregistry
+	Java Remote Object Registry
+    bin/tnameserv
+	Java IDL Name Server
+    bin/keytool
+	Key and Certificate Management Tool
+    bin/kinit

+	Object Request Broker Daemon
+    bin/servertool
+	Java IDL Server Tool
+    bin/javaws, lib/javaws/ and lib/javaws.jar
+	Java Web Start
+
+When redistributing the JRE on Microsoft Windows as a private
+application runtime (not accessible by other applications)
+with a custom launcher, the following files are also
+optional.  These are libraries and executables that are used
+for Java support in Internet Explorer and Mozilla family browsers;
+these files are not needed in a private JRE redistribution.
+
+    bin\java.exe
+    bin\javaw.exe
+    bin\javaws.exe
+    bin\javacpl.exe
+    bin\jucheck.exe

+Redistributable JDK(TM) Files
+-----------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+The limited set of files from the Java SE Development Kit (JDK)
+listed below may be included in vendor redistributions of the Java SE 
+Runtime Environment.  All paths are relative to the top-level
+directory of the JDK. The corresponding man pages should be included for
+any included executables (with paths listed below beginning with bin/ ,
+for the Solaris(TM) Operating System and Linux). 
+
+    jre/lib/cmm/PYCC.pf
+        Color profile.  This file is required only if one wishes to
+        convert between the PYCC color space and another color space.
+
+    All .ttf font files in the jre/lib/fonts directory. 
+        Note that the LucidaSansRegular.ttf font is already contained 
+        in the Java SE Runtime Environment, so there is no need to 
+        bring that file over from the JDK.
+
+    jre/lib/audio/soundbank.gm
+        This MIDI soundbank is present in the JDK, but it has
+        been removed from the Java SE Runtime Environment in order to
+        reduce the size of the Runtime Environment's download bundle.
+        However, a soundbank file is necessary for MIDI playback, and
+        therefore the JDK's soundbank.gm file may be included in
+        redistributions of the Runtime Environment at the vendor's
+        discretion. Several versions of enhanced MIDI soundbanks are
+        available from the Java Sound web site:
+        http://java.sun.com/products/java-media/sound/
+        These alternative soundbanks may be included in redistributions
+        of the Java SE Runtime Environment.
+
+    The javac bytecode compiler, consisting of the following files:
+        bin/javac           [Solaris(TM) Operating System
+                             and Linux]
+        bin/sparcv9/javac   [Solaris Operating System
+                             (SPARC(R) Platform Edition)]
+	bin/amd64/javac     [Solaris Operating System (AMD)]
+        bin/javac.exe       [Microsoft Windows]
+        lib/tools.jar       [All platforms]
+
+    The Annotation Processing Tool, consisting of the following files:
+        lib/tools.jar       [All platforms]  
+        bin/apt             [Solaris(TM) Operating System
+                             and Linux]
+        bin/sparcv9/apt     [Solaris Operating System
+                             (SPARC(R) Platform Edition)]
+	bin/amd64/apt       [Solaris Operating System (AMD)]
+        bin/apt.exe         [Microsoft Windows]
+
+    lib/jconsole.jar
+        The Jconsole application.  NOTE: The Jconsole application requires
+        the dynamic attach mechanism.
+
+    The dynamic attach mechanism consisting of the following files:
+        lib/tools.jar       [All platforms]
+        jre/lib/sparc/libattach.so 
+          [Solaris(TM) Operating System (SPARC(R) Platform Edition) and Linux]
+        jre/lib/sparcv9/libattach.so 
+          [Solaris(TM) Operating System (SPARC(R) Platform Edition) and Linux]
+        jre/lib/i386/libattach.so 
+          [Solaris(TM) Operating System (x86) and Linux]
+        jre/lib/amd64/libattach.so 
+          [Solaris(TM) Operating System (AMD) and Linux]
+        jre\bin\attach.dll  [Microsoft Windows]
+
+    The Java Platform Debugger Architecture implementation consisting of the
+    files shown in the dynamic attach section above, and the following files:
+        lib/tools.jar       [All platforms]
+        lib/sa-jdi.jar      [All platforms]
+        jre/lib/sparc/libsaproc.so 
+          [Solaris(TM) Operating System (SPARC(R) Platform Edition) and Linux]
+        jre/lib/sparcv9/libsaproc.so 
+          [Solaris(TM) Operating System (SPARC(R) Platform Edition) and Linux]
+        jre/lib/i386/libsaproc.so 
+          [Solaris(TM) Operating System (x86) and Linux]
+        jre/lib/amd64/libsaproc.so 
+          [Solaris(TM) Operating System (AMD) and Linux]
+
+    jre\bin\server\
+        On Microsoft Windows platforms, the JDK includes both
+        the Java HotSpot(TM) Server VM and Java HotSpot Client VM.
+        However, the Java SE Runtime Environment for Microsoft Windows
+        platforms includes only the Java HotSpot Client VM. Those wishing
+        to use the Java HotSpot Server VM with the Java SE Runtime
+        Environment may copy the JDK's jre\bin\server folder to a 
+        bin\server directory in the Java SE Runtime Environment. Software
+        vendors may redistribute the Java HotSpot Server VM with their
+        redistributions of the Java SE Runtime Environment.
+
+
+-----------------------------------------------------------------------
+Unlimited Strength Java Cryptography Extension
+-----------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+Due to import control restrictions for some countries, the Java
+Cryptography Extension (JCE) policy files shipped with the Java SE
+Development Kit and the Java SE Runtime Environment allow strong but
+limited cryptography to be used.  These files are located at
+
+     <java-home>/lib/security/local_policy.jar
+     <java-home>/lib/security/US_export_policy.jar
+
+where <java-home> is the jre directory of the JDK or the
+top-level directory of the Java SE Runtime Environment.
+
+An unlimited strength version of these files indicating no restrictions
+on cryptographic strengths is available on the JDK web site for
+those living in eligible countries.  Those living in eligible countries
+may download the unlimited strength version and replace the strong
+cryptography jar files with the unlimited strength files.
+
+-----------------------------------------------------------------------
+The cacerts Certificates File
+-----------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+Root CA certificates may be added to or removed from the Java SE
+certificate file located at 
+
+    <java-home>/lib/security/cacerts
+
+For more information, see The cacerts Certificates File section
+in the keytool documentation at:
+
+http://java.sun.com/javase/6/docs/tooldocs/solaris/keytool.html#cacerts
+
+=======================================================================
+Endorsed Standards Override Mechanism
+=======================================================================
+
+From time to time it is necessary to update the Java platform in order
+to incorporate newer versions of standards that are created outside of
+the Java Community Process(SM) (JCP(SM) http://www.jcp.org/) (Endorsed
+Standards), or in order to update the version of a technology included
+in the platform to correspond to a later standalone version of that
+technology (Standalone Technologies).
+
+The Endorsed Standards Override Mechanism provides a means whereby
+later versions of classes and interfaces that implement Endorsed
+Standards or Standalone Technologies may be incorporated into the Java
+Platform.
+
+For more information on the Endorsed Standards Override Mechanism,
+including the list of platform packages that it may be used to
+override, see
+
+    http://java.sun.com/javase/6/docs/technotes/guides/standards/
