Fabrizio Giustina commented on MAGNOLIA-540:
--------------------------------------------

Just a comment: I already tried replacing cos with commons-fileupload months 
ago, during the dependencies cleanup work, but my implementation failed in 2 
points:
- UTF8 support was not working properly (well, the UTF8 transition was not 
completed yet, so probably there were other problems kicking in)
- handling of multi-values parameter (I can't really remember well the issue I 
had, but just be sure to test this properly)

said that, I'm all for migrating to commons-fileupload and I will try to help 
with the implementation: we could start adding the dependency and committing a 
new multipart filter along with the existing one for tests (leaving the old one 
configured by default while testing the new one)... I'll do that

> The WAR file download contains Jason Hunter's com.oreilly.servlet package in 
> the WEB-INF/lib directory. Its license terms (see 
> http://servlets.com/cos/license.html) are problematic I fear.
> Especially items 5 and 6 are currently violated:
> "5. The distribution includes copyright notice as follows: "The source code, 
> object code, and documentation in the com.oreilly.servlet package is 
> copyright and owned by Jason Hunter." in the documentation and/or other 
> materials provided with the distribution.
> 6. You reproduce the above copyright notice, this list of conditions, and the 
> following disclaimer in the documentation and/or other materials provided 
> with the distribution."
> Both "license.txt" and "release notes.txt" contained in the WAR file download 
> do not mention anything demanded by the terms cited above.
> A problematic second point is the license for commercial usage and 
> redistribution as every developer must own a copy of Jason's book or 
> negotiate a seperate license.
> Jakarta Commons FileUpload (http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/fileupload/) is 
> a possible replacement at least for some functionality.
