Optional dependencies can have any license. In some cases, even
required dependencies can have incompatible licenses.
The hard rule is that Apache projects must not ship code with
incompatible licenses.
So I'm
+1
for release of these artifacts.
Good job.

First of all thanks for the thorough review.
These are all optional dependencies and we don't package them. All our
code is written against the JDBC api, we don't need any driver
implementation for compilation. So I don't see the problem.
It seems we forgot to comment the mysql dependency in the codegen
which is the only place and it will cause the mysql driver to be
downloaded to your local maven repository when using it... is this
blocking for the release? (just fixed this in trunk)
Cheers,
Francis

However, I found various dependencies which are not compatible with
the ASF
license. These dependencies are NOT included in any distribution
file.
However, as I read [1] ("which licenses are acceptable for use with
an
Apache product"), dependencies must also comply with the 3rd party
license
policy. Please correct me if I'm wrong.
mysql-connector-java is released under GPL, according to [2] . GPL
dependencies are not ok according to [3]
Not sure about hsqldb. It is not explicitly listed on [4], but as
it is a
MIT style license, I presume it's ok, but IANAL.
The h2database is dual-licensed under a modified mpl and epl. Both
need to
be appropriately labeled, see [5]. I do not see such prominent
labelling in
the distribution.
The postgresql license is also not listed in [4]. I presume it's
ok, but
IANAL.
So I'm afraid this is a -1.

P.S. Sorry for waiting so long with the review, but I have been
very busy
personally and now finally managed to find a time slice for this.
