The Jenkins governance board has confirmed that the embeddable build status 
plugin is currently including a proprietary font in its distribution.  That 
is contrary to the Jenkins project license requirements 
<https://www.jenkins.io/doc/developer/publishing/preparation/#license>.  
The license requirements state:

> All plugins distributed by the Jenkins project need to be free and open 
source software. This applies to the plugin source code as well as all its 
dependencies.

The board has agreed that if we do not receive a plugin adoption request by 
the end of the day July 25, 2022, the plugin will be suspended from 
distribution.

Pull requests have been opened on the plugin to:

   - Implement continuous delivery 
   <https://github.com/jenkinsci/embeddable-build-status-plugin/pull/74>
   - Support compilation with Java 8, 11, and 17 
   <https://github.com/jenkinsci/embeddable-build-status-plugin/pull/83>

A description of the technique needed to remove the proprietary dependency 
has been provided by Basil Crow in an issue report comment 
<https://issues.jenkins.io/browse/JENKINS-68764?focusedCommentId=426664&page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels%3Acomment-tabpanel#comment-426664>
.

If you're willing to adopt the plugin, please follow the "Adopt a plugin 
<https://www.jenkins.io/doc/developer/plugin-governance/adopt-a-plugin/>" 
instructions.

Thanks,
Mark Waite
