+The third_party directory contains a set of dependencies from outside sources
+that are needed to build various components and tools within Skia.

+Some of these dependencies reside within the Skia repo, while others are pulled
+from other repositories and placed in the third_party/externals directory
+during build. These external dependencies are defined in a DEPS file.

+Products in third_party are subject to their own respective license terms. The
+license for each project should be included in the source itself via a license
+header or file. If the source itself does not include a license header or file,
+create a README that refers to reliable documentation of the project's license
+terms on the web.
