Hi Chris,
according to the Xerces' charter

7.3) we need to ask you some questions in
order to clean up any licensing issue:
a) What is your name and employer?
National Aeronautics and Space Administration (US Government).
b) Are you the author of the code being contributed?
Yes.
c) Do you have the right to grant the copyright
and patent licenses for the contribution that
are set forth in the ASF v.2.0 license
(http://www.apache.org/licenses/LICENSE-2.0)?
Actually, I believe all code I develop is
considered public domain and can be included in
your codebase without license concern. I can verify, if needed.
d) Does your employer have any rights to code
that you have written, for example, through
your contract for employment? If so, has your
employer given you permission to contribute the
code on its behalf or waived its rights in the code?
I believe NASA has no rights to the code.
e) Are you aware of any third-party licenses or
other restrictions (such as related patents or
trademarks) that could apply to your contribution? If so, what are they?
Nope.
