  • To make only sufficient copies of the Manual for your project, but not to allow wider dissemination.
  • Not to alter the contents of the Manual
  • To reply to requests from the RTSS development group for feedback about the Manual and RTSS based on your project’s use. The timing and nature of the feedback we will request will depend on the nature and duration of the project that you describe.
