6. Requirements for Determining Compliance.

1. Development Restrictions. A Compliant Implementation:
1. must fully comply with the Technology Specifications for the Technology to which this Technology Specific Attachment applies; and
2. must not modify or extend the required public class or public interface declarations whose names begin with "java", "javax", "jini", "net.jini", "sun.hotjava", "COM.sun" or their equivalents in any subsequent class, interface and/ or package naming convention adopted by Original Contributor. It is specifically suggested that You name any new Java packages using the "Unique Package Naming Convention" as described in "The Java Language Specification" by James Gosling, Bill Joy, and Guy Steele, ISBN 0-201-63451-1, August 1996. Section 7.7 "Unique Package Names," on pages 125 and 126 of this specification says in part:
3. You form a unique package name by first having (or belonging to an organization that has) an Internet domain name, such as "sun.com". You then reverse the name, component by component, to obtain, in this example, "com.sun" and use this as a prefix for your package names, using a convention developed within your organization to further administer package names.
2. Covered Code. All Covered Code must constitute a Compliant Implementation prior to any Commercial Use (other than pre-deployment testing), whether originating with You or acquired through a third party. Successful compatibility testing must be completed by You, or by a third party authorized by Original Contributor to conduct such tests, using the most current version of the applicable Compliance Materials available no less than one hundred and twenty (120) days prior to Your Commercial Use. If You make any further Modifications to any Covered Code previously determined to be a Compliant Implementation, You must retest the new Covered Code to ensure that it continues to be a Compliant Implementation. For this retest, You may use the same version of the Compliance Materials as used originally or, at your option, You may use a more current version of the Compliance Materials.
3. Test Results. Upon Original Contributor's written request, You agree to provide to Original Contributor or the third party test facility, if applicable, Your test results that demonstrate that Covered Code is a Compliant Implementation, and that Original Contributor may publish or otherwise distribute such test results.

Agreed:
