Please check with Cliff that your understanding regarding Rhino distribution as you explained it to Bill's objection is correct. Not to hold up the release, since you've documented the license and are in the Incubator, but just to be sure for your future development.
There may be a bigger issue here. Although most projects from mozilla.org have been relicensed under MPL it appears that Rhino is an exception and is still under NPL1.1: http://www.mozilla.org/MPL/relicensing-faq.html#to-be-relicensed NPL1.1 is one of the "exceptions" on Chris's list that was originally banned but which was going to be reviewed. Has such a review taken place and if so what was the outcome? To be on the safe side, I'm going to propose that we remove the Rhino jar from the distribution and update the NOTICE files etc. with information for users on where it can be downloaded from and under what terms. Do we need another IPMC vote after such a change or is lazy consensus acceptable? -- Jeremy --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
