Thanks Justin, John and Pierre for your input. I really appreciate you taking the time to review these packages and for pursuing these issues in both the general and legal forums. The Trafodion community is committed to getting all the legalities correct.
I will cancel the vote since Apache Trafodion still has several licensing issues. Regards, Roberta -----Original Message----- From: John D.

It appears that the source files you're using have been relicensed under the BSD-3-clause, as a result I would recommend switching to those versions. In light of the clarification of Cat-X, I have to change to a -1 due to licensing issues.
