<br />6 Software Support and Maintenance <br /> <br /> <br />" <br /> <br />" <br /> <br />(}u~~,-'l <br /> <br />We wish to make it clear that EPRI owns the source code developed under the INTEGRAL <br />Project. Although BOR is negotiating the right to have perpetual access to the source code for <br />development and testing purposes, we will not have the right to distribute that source code, BORJW/I f.;, <br />is negotiating the right for most interested parties (including state governmental agencies, other l",.f"'. b~ <br />Federal agencies, non-profit water resource and regulatory agencies, non-profit environmental 4-0 0 IoJ...I'- <br />agencies, Indian nations, and water districts) to license the software (in executable form) through ~~ <br />EPRI. Data for specific Colorado River and other regional models will be maintained and <br />distributed. <br /> <br />We plan to form a user support group, managed by EPRI, to facilitate the maintenance and <br />enhancement of the code. By licensing the software and joining this group, we envision that <br />users will receive operational and maintenance services, including a user newsletter and hotline, <br />distribution of the code and documentation, bug fixes and updates, and the opportunity to <br />prioritize future improvements and to exchange information with respect to use of the software. <br /> <br />A1J of this writing, we do not know the extent of the licensing and user support group fees. <br />However, we want to make it clear that we will not be trying to recover our development costs <br />through these fees, but rather to fund the maintenance and support costs to ensure a long lifetime <br />of the product. <br /> <br /> <br />ro~ J <br /> <br />w<. <br /> <br />O-y..~ISI~4,. <br /> <br />4 v. 5 ~ ') '/>>--p <br />I, u.-,S "0 <br />~7 <br />ul ~ IS ~ poSS,ble <br />WI ") <br />yo- .~ (4k Uo/s/s. <br /> <br />8 <br />
