Hi robert, I have a question regarding the Apache license header in some files in our distribution. I have emailed the legal-discuss mailing list but thought I would ask the general list also to see if I can get an answer...
1) idl.g - This file is from the antlr & is released under a bsd license. Should we include the apache header in this file? 2) We have the third party licenses in separate files and we reference them from the main LICENSE file. Do we need the headers in these files? third_party_licenses\antlr-bsd-license.txt third_party_licenses\CDDL-license.txt third_party_licenses\celtix-epl-license.txt third_party_licenses\wsdl4j-cpl-license.txt Thanks Balaji -----Original Message----- From: robert burrell donkin [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, October 05, 2006 5:02 PM To: general@incubator.apache.org Subject: Re: [VOTE] Publish Yoko M1 release On 9/29/06, Mosur Ravi, Balaji <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > The Yoko community voted on and has approved a proposal to release Yoko > Milestone 1.

(RAT is at http://code.google.com/p/arat/ and can be run from source but it's very raw ATM.) i think that the LICENSE may be missing a credit to OMG for the LICENSE file contains: " Celtix, EPL License, ../etc/third-party-licenses/celtix-epl-license.txt Antlr, BSD License, ../etc/third-party-licenses/antlr-bsd-license.txt XmlSchema, Apache License, ../etc/third-party-licenses/apache-license.txt WSDL4j, Common Public License, ../etc/third-party-licenses/wsdl4j-cpl-license.txt Saaj, CDDL License ../etc/third-party-licenses/CDDL-license.txt JSR150, CDDL License, ../etc/third-party-licenses/CDDL-license.txt JSR181, CDDL License, ../etc/third-party-licenses/CDDL-license.txt" i can't find the relative paths. it's usually best to include the text of the licenses for example http://incubator.apache.org/guides/examples/LICENSE (then the licenses cannot get lost). may be missing a note about http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator/yoko/trunk/yoko-spec-corba/src /main/java/org/omg/CORBA_2_3/portable/ObjectImpl.java in LICENSE the MANIFEST.MF lacks some of the recommended attributes. consider adding Specification-Title: XXX Specification-Vendor: The Apache Software Foundation Specification-Version: n.m Implementation-Vendor-Id: org.apache Implementation-Vendor: The Apache Software Foundation - robert --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
