+ 1 for this! Perhaps it would be nice for the podling to just come up with a list of all of the 3rd party libraries in a Jira and have a group (possibly from legal) that reviews them and helps them officially construct the LICENSE/NOTICE files the first time around (There are usually a lot of grey areas and not an easy straight reference to an outdated list of approved compatible licenses). Most of the committers are developers and not lawyers- so it would be nice to have developers do what they do best and focus on building awesome code. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: general-unsubscr...@incubator.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: general-h...@incubator.apache.org
