3376 NEW ZEALAND GAZETTE No. 114

C.3. Software

C.3.1. Common

C.3.1.1. Software Quality Compliance

By 1 January 1996 all suppliers of gaming software must be able to provide evidence of compliance, or significant achievement in obtaining compliance, with AS3563 (or a recognised international equivalent).

C.3.1.2. Source Code

a. The Authority requires that all programs be well structured, well commented and well documented. Code which does not meet these requirements seriously impairs the evaluation process and consequently confidence in software.

b. All program source for all gaming equipment will be examined by the Authority’s testing representatives.

c. Source code supplied to the Authority shall be exactly as installed in the EGM.

d. The evaluation of software written in a "high level language" may be expected to be undertaken more efficiently than the evaluation of software written in assembly language.

e. The following must appear in all source code modules:

i. module name,

ii. version number,

iii. revision number,

iv. brief description of functions performed,

v. edit history: who, why and when.

f. Variable names chosen are to be informative.

C.3.1.2.1. Source Compilation

a. The Authority’s test centre will compile, assemble, and/or link all versions of software.

b. Software compilable using commercially available compilers, assemblers or linkers is preferred by the test centre.

c. Should a manufacturer use an in-house or proprietary development environment, the Authority will require submission of those tools for assessment.

C.3.1.2.2. Source Control and Upgrade

a. Each software revision must be separately evaluated by the Authority’s evaluation laboratory.

b. Software must be clearly labelled, and contain sufficient information to identify the version, modification, etc. The identification used is at the discretion of the supplier but it must strictly follow that supplier’s identification system as detailed in the supplier’s software change control procedures.

As the Gazette has been published for more than 185 years, copyright status depends on the publication date of each issue:

1840–1925 (Public Domain): Issues of the New Zealand Gazette and Provincial Gazettes from this period are in the public domain, as the term of Crown copyright (100 years) has expired. Mechanical reproductions (e.g., scanned PDFs) of these public domain documents do not attract new copyright.
1926–1999 (Crown Copyright): Issues from this period remain subject to Crown copyright. Usage of these issues in this project is "Fair Dealing" for research purposes and consistent with the spirit of the open-access principles championed by NZGOAL, ie, "The default licensing position under ... NZGOAL is the Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International licence ... [t]o the greatest extent possible, agencies should apply this licence to copyright material on their websites"
2000–Present (CC-BY 3.0 NZ): Gazette issues published on gazette.govt.nz are Crown copyright but are explicitly licensed by the Department of Internal Affairs under the Creative Commons Attribution 3.0 New Zealand licence (CC-BY 3.0 NZ). This project redistributes this content in accordance with those terms.

Third-Party Content

Where third-party content (e.g., notices submitted by external organisations) is identified within the Gazette, users should satisfy themselves regarding the copyright status of that specific content, as it may be subject to different ownership terms than the Gazette itself.
