> During the recent upgrade from Cassandra 3 to Cassandra 4.0.10, I noticed the
> introduction of a GPL-Compatible dependency, specifically
> "java-cup-runtime-11b-20160615.jar." Upon further investigation, the
> declaration of this dependency seems to add an extra layer of complexity.
> While I understand that introducing GPL-Compatible dependencies into Apache
> is generally acceptable, the necessity of this declaration and whether it is
> an additional step has raised concerns.
> Additionally, I observed that some portions of the code are explicitly marked
> as GPL (①). However, in the README file on the project's homepage, there is a
> clear indication of the licenses for different distribution packages. I
> believe we should reference Protocol ② or ③, namely the Historical protocol.
> I would like to bring attention to these two issues to ensure that we adhere
> to the correct protocols when using and distributing the code. Please
> consider explicitly stating in the relevant documentation or instructions
> that we are using the Historical protocol.
> Thank you for your attention to these issues. I believe addressing them will
> contribute to ensuring the legality of our code usage and distribution.
