Does the 3800 series require extra licensing to run OSPF?

I got burned some years back by an HP switch that required me to purchase a license to use common routing protocols.  I am looking at using the 3800 series in my enterprise, and don't want any suprises.  I cannot find anything on line that suggests this is the case, but I would like to be certain before I commit.  The switches I am currently interested in are:

I just opened up a chat on line with HP, and answered my own question.  No.  There is no extra licensing required to run Layer 3 routing protocols.  Thank you "Joey."
