*{What is stigmata}
Stigmata is a toolkit for birthmarking Java class files. Extracting
plugins, you can define original birthmark plugin and easily install
it to Stigmata.
+*{What is the limitation of extracting birthmarks}
+
+ Stigmata loads a target class into StigmataClassLoader when
+birthmarks were extracted from the class. Therefore, extracting
+birthmarks from sealed classes will be failed.
+
+ For example, let <S> be a set of classes included in sealed jar file
+<SomeArchive-X.X.jar>, then, <<<SecurityException>>> will be thrown
+when extracting birthmarks from other version sealed jar file
+(SomeArchive-X.Y.jar).
+
+ This limitation is occured only when extracting IS birthmark. IS
+birthmark is inheritance structure birthmark, and to extract it to
+find super class from loaded classes pool. So, difference version
+cannot be applied.
