Description

Some classes appear to have been copied from the JDK source and altered to improve them for use in Cassandra. Unfortunately neither the classic JDK nor the OpenJDK license is compatible with the Apache license that Cassandra is operating under. See https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LEGAL-46

Modified JDK classes include:

• BitSet [JDK: BitSet]
• FastByteArrayInputStream [ByteArrayInputStream]
• FastByteArrayOutputStream [ByteArrayOutputStream]
