The JSR-166 classes available from the JSR-166 website are all prefixed
thus:

*
 * Written by Doug Lea with assistance from members of JCP JSR-166
 * Expert Group and released to the public domain, as explained at
 * http://creativecommons.org/licenses/publicdomain
 */

Of course some things need JVM support to work and the current
implementations (atomics for example) use the JVM functionality exposed by
the sun.misc.Unsafe class.

Note: some classes available from the site are not part of JSR-166 (eg some
pre-existing collection classes) and these remain copyright Sun.
