These Java interface definitions are taken from the XQJ specification,
JSR 225, which you can find here:
http://jcp.org/aboutJava/communityprocess/final/jsr225/index.html
along with the licensing terms.
An extract of the license is:
In addition, to the extent that an implementation of the Specification
would be considered
a derivative work under applicable law requiring a license grant from
the holder of the
copyright in the Specification, the Spec Lead grants a copyright
license solely for the
purpose of making and/or distributing an implementation of the
Specification that: (a)
except for the RI code licensed from Oracle under the RI License which
is attached
hereto as Exhibit B, does not include or otherwise make any use of the
RI; (b) fully
implements the Specification including all of its required interfaces
and functionality; (c)
does not modify, subset, superset or otherwise extend those public
class or interface
declarations whose names begin with “java;” and (d) passes the TCK.
In other words: Saxon, as an implementation of the XQJ specification,
takes advantage
of the copyright license granted by Oracle, and satisfies the terms
of this license insofar
as it is a complete implementation of the specification and passes the TCK.
