<p>This is not an official response. So we can ask, but I'm sure
the answer will be no, it is not acceptable to change our
license. We are also a university with the same sovereign
immunity. And keep in mind, involving our university's lawyers
means that you might not get an answer for many months. So I hope
you're not in a hurry. And our lawyers choose the wording in our
license. Do you still wish to pursue this folly?<br>

<p class="MsoNormal">Our Chemistry department of Missouri
University of Science and Technology would like to use your
software. Our attorney reviewed the non-commercial software
license agreement, and is requesting the legal jurisdiction be
struck from the license agreement as well as other
modifications. Due to the University being an instrumentality
of the state of Missouri and having sovereign immunity under
Missouri and federal law, we are not authorized to waive our
legal jurisdiction (See Fowler v. Board of Regents, 637 S.W.2d
352 (Mo.App. 1982)). Would you please review the attached
requested license agreement modifications, and initial if
acceptable?<o:p></o:p></p>
