Can you please let me know which license XPP uses? I could not find informatino in NOTICE and did not find a website which helped me. its necessary to clarify that as xpp3 is in the war file release. Once you told me, I will give my +1
Clearly missing in the N&L files.
OK. Guess this should be fixed with a new attempt then.

Will do ASAP - guess we are trying to beat some record at Syncope: I know that Flex made it in seven attempts, we are approaching... ;-)

Jokes apart, we are talking here about XPP3, a transitive dependency of XStream which is instead a declared dependency of Syncope (core). We honestly did not consider at all such dependencies in L&N files, and there are quite some: what's the best practice for such cases? I see no option but using the maven dependency plugin in order to find all transitive dependencies and update L&N files consequently.

Is this correct? Basically, I feel this like breaking the Maven dependency resolution...
I must admit I'm a bit puzzled.

IMO, the L&N files should only contain the required licenses and notice for deps we are explicitely declaring in the poms, as they are part of the build. The fact that the built wars include transitive dependencies is a by-product of the build. In other words, if a 3rd party we include itself depends on some other libs, then it's this 3rd party L&N files to explicitely include the required L&N, not ours.

So XPP is not included by us, and should not be added in the N&L, as I initially (wrongly) thought.

Regarding the distinction between sources vs binary N&L files, my perception is that we should keep all the required (ie if it's explicitely asked by the 3rd party license) 3rd party Licenses, and nothing more. I do think we are pretty much ok here. Sebastian, if you have some libs that you think should not be present in the N&L files, could you name them ?

Thanks !
