I though Ross was very clear in his explanation, but apparently not...
Unfortunately this thread (happens too often
at the ASF) is digressing into hypothetical, vague and philosophical
discussions.

I refer back to my original response.
apache-extras is not intended to be a way to route around legal and
community policies here at the ASF. I believe that what you propose
does just that regardless of the license choice and distribution
mechanism. You propose using ASF infrastructure for everyth

To make a few things more clear:
- All Camel extra components are optional and we do not
deliver/release/deploy it with our normal Apache Camel releases (and we do
not plan to do this).
- As package name, we use org.apacheextras.camel.xxx
- As Maven grou

I'm replying to the original message as this thread seems to be taking
a different direction.
Based on the Apache Extras guidelines snippet below:
Projects hosted on Apache Extras are not considered official Apache
Software Foundation projects and they are also not associated, allied,

Perhaps I can help here.
The root of all this, as I understand it, is an optional dependency.
There is, of course, code that depends on the optional dependency.
However, no one has mentioned any *source* code that is under an
incompatible license, such as modified sources of an LGPL component.

This is not correct. T
I agree with Ross.
In my understanding the whole issue is a non-issue anyway. See [1]. You
are very well allowed to give users instrucions on how to obtain and
install OPTIONAL components to your main product that are dependent on
software with incompatible licenses. You are just not allowed to in
As I see it the end result of the proposed activity is an Apache community
producing GPL code. Extras is not intended to be a way to route around ASF
policies relating to licence choice. It is intended to be a place for
apache related projects.
Others may see it differently.

our Camel Extra [2] commit and issue notifications to our regular Camel
