Hi Justin Picocli NOTICE mentions GPL is coming from OpenJDK documentation copied in the Picocli source distribution (documentation), not included in jar.
I know that GPL is not allowed, but we don't have GPL dependency here: - picocli is using Apache license - picocli jar doesn't include GPL resources (only source) I'm not Picocli committer, but it looks good to me.

How does having a GPL dependency and distribution that OK?
