      From an email exchange regarding bug 4985703 about demo installation on Solaris
      (this appears to be about the Solaris demo packages in SUNWj3dmo and SUNWj5dmo
      that are installed with Tiger):

      Is the fact that Sun make no commitment to maintaining or supporting demos
      documented anywhere?

      If not, is it possible to get this formally documented?

      >>The updated CCC request says the following:
      >> Sun make *no* commitment to maintaining or supporting demos.
      >>
      >>Is this documented somewhere?
      >>Perhaps this should be clearly stated in the J2SE documentation, so
      >>that customers don't expect demos to be backward compatible.
      >>
      >>

      >
      >If we need to document this then that should be done globally in the
      >documentation for all the demos.
