Steve Rowe commented on LUCENE-2562:
------------------------------------

bq. We cannot link to GPL so this is a bummer. I don't think JavaFX, unless 
shipped with the JDK is a viable option for Apache projects. I think we should 
ask ASF legal how to proceed?

bq. As you know, in the ASF legal page, GNU GPL including GNU Classpath 
exceptions is listed in the Category X list (honestly, I read this terms 
yesterday and not prepared to handle such legal matters.) 
https://www.apache.org/legal/resolved.html#category-x

bq. I'm afraid that I cannot ask to and negotiate with ASF on my own about 
complicated matters with my limited knowledge about licensing and English 
vocabulary.

I will make an INFRA JIRA and ask if an exception can be made for OpenJFX as a 
dependency (vs. bundled with the JRE, which is allowed).

> I think it would be great if there was a version of Luke that always worked 
> with trunk - and it would also be great if it was easier to match Luke jars 
> with Lucene versions.
> While I'd like to get GWT Luke into the mix as well, I think the easiest 
> starting point is to straight port Luke to another UI toolkit before 
> abstracting out DTO objects that both GWT Luke and Pivot Luke could share.
> I've started slowly converting Luke's use of thinlet to Apache Pivot. I 
> haven't/don't have a lot of time for this at the moment, but I've plugged 
> away here and there over the past work or two. There is still a *lot* to do.
