Contributed Code

In order to keep System.Data.SQLite completely free and unencumbered by copyright, all new contributors to the System.Data.SQLite code base are asked to dedicate their contributions to the public domain. If you want to send a patch or enhancement for possible inclusion in the System.Data.SQLite source tree, please accompany the patch with the following statement:

We make this dedication for the benefit of the public at large and to the detriment of our heirs and successors. We intend this dedication to be an overt act of relinquishment in perpetuity of all present and future rights to this code under copyright law.

We are not able to accept patches or changes to System.Data.SQLite that are not accompanied by a statement such as the above.
