Thanks Mark, this example helps a lot. I have one further question, taking the following Derby example: ---- The portion of the functionTests under 'nist' was originally developed by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), an agency of the United States Department of Commerce, and adapted by International Business Machines Corporation in accordance with the NIST Software Acknowledgment and Redistribution document at http://www.itl.nist.gov/div897/ctg/sql_form.htm ----- When you put it in the Geronimo context, this is unclear where the above mentioned "functionTests" is used, does it matter? When you look at the meta NOTICE file, the provenance of Geronimo depends on Derby and Derby bundles some software which has functionTests is lost. Just want to make sure, if this is intended.
