<h3>License</h3>
<p>The source code for the 3D vector math API reference
-implementation is licensed under terms that are yet to be disclosed.
-Until such time as these terms are disclosed, you may not do anything
-at all with the source code in this CVS repository.<br>
-</p>
-<p>The API specification will continue to evolve as part of the
-<a href="http://jcp.org/">Java Community Process (JCP)</a>.
-We welcome community participation, and encourage developers to
-contribute both bug fixes and new implementation code to the API.
-The terms under which we will license this source code will facilitate
-this, while ensuring that the API is not fragmented with incompatible
-versions being released.<br>

+implementation
+is licensed under the <a href="http://java3d.dev.java.net/jrl.html">Java
+Research License (JRL)</a> for non-commercial use. The JRL allows users
+to download, build, and modify the source code in the
+j3d-core project for research use, subject to the terms of the license.
+</p>
+<p>The vecmath source code is also licensed for commercial use under a
+new
+no-fee <a href="http://java3d.dev.java.net/jdl-java3d.pdf">Java
+Distribution License (JDL)</a>. The JDL
+allows commercial use of vecmath with or without modification, as
+long as compatibility with the entire API Specification is maintained.
+This includes passing the TCK tests for vecmath, and retaining the
+javax namespace as defined by the JCP.

+The API specification will continue to evolve as part of the Java
+Community Process (JCP). We welcome community participation, and
+encourage developers to contribute both bug fixes and new
+implementation code to the API. The combination of the JRL and the JDL
+was chosen to facilitate this, while ensuring the integrity and
+compatibility of the API.<br>

+<h3>Downloads</h3>
+<p>Three types of binary builds are available in the <a
+ href="http://j3d-core.dev.java.net/servlets/ProjectDocumentList">Documents
+&amp; Files</a>
+section of this project on java.net: Release (or FCS) builds;
+Experimental (early access) builds; and Daily/Weekly builds. The latest
+release build of Java&nbsp;3D v1.3.1 is available. A fairly stable
+experimental build, labeled as Java&nbsp;3D v 1.3.2-build3 is now
+available. We will set up daily or weekly builds in the near future.<br>
+</p>
<h3>How to Contribute</h3>
-<p>[TODO: include text from j3d-core]</p>
-<h3>Releases</h3>
-<p>[TODO: links to code] </p>
+<p>We invite developers to contribute to Java&nbsp;3D. Please refer to
+the
+<a href="http://java3d.dev.java.net/contribute.html">Contributing to
+Java&nbsp;3D</a> section in the parent java3d project to learn
+how to contribute to this project or any other Java&nbsp;3D-related
+project.</p>
+<h3>Project Highlights</h3>
+<p>Please see the <a

+Highlights</a> in the <a href="http://j3d-core.dev.java.net/">j3d-core</a>

+<h3>Project Suggestions&nbsp;</h3>
+<p>Please see the <a
+ href="http://j3d-core.dev.java.net/#Project_Suggestions">Project
+Suggestions</a> in the <a href="http://j3d-core.dev.java.net/">j3d-core</a>

<h3>Examples</h3>
<p>We don't yet have any vecmath-only example programs. However, all of
the example programs in the <a href="http://j3d-examples.dev.java.net/">j3d-examples</a>
project use
the vecmath API.</p>
<h3>Feedback</h3>
-<p>[TODO: list of feedback and participation options including mailing
-lists,
-project owners/contacts, discussion forum, wikis, etc.]<br>
-<br>
+<p>We have created two Java&nbsp;3D mailing lists in the parent <a
+ href="http://java3d.dev.java.net/">java3d</a> project: <a
+and <a href="mailto:[email protected]">[email protected]</a>.
+<a href="http://java3d.dev.java.net/servlets/ProjectMailingListList">Click
+here to subscribe</a> to either of these lists. The annouce list is a
+low-volume moderated mailing list for announcing Java&nbsp;3D-related
+news
+and information. The interest list is an open mailing list for
+discussing all aspects of Java&nbsp;3D, the reference implementation
+for the
+Java&nbsp;3D core, vecmath, utilities, example programs, etc.</p>
+<p>For those who prefer a forum to a mailing list, we have created the
+<a href="https://java3d.dev.java.net/servlets/ProjectForumView">Java&nbsp;3D
+forum</a>, hosted as part of the JavaDesktop Community. Messages
+posted on the forum are cross-posted to <a
+and vice-versa.<br>
</p>
+<p>Finally, each sub-project has its own cvs and issues mailing
+lists.&nbsp;<a href="servlets/ProjectMailingListList">Click here to
+subscribe</a> to either of these lists. The <a
+list is for automated CVS change messages and discussion of those
+changes. The <a href="mailto:[email protected]">[email protected]</a>
+list is for automated issue tracking.</p>
