Justin Mclean commented on CASSANDRA-18969: ------------------------------------------- Thanks, Henry, for answering my question (originally asked on the incubator general list) that these are indeed optional. Regarding dependencies, A Category X build dependency may output content that is under a license not compatible with the Apache license or if it's under a "community license", even if the license seems compatible, it may impose further restrictions that are not compatible with the Apache license e.g non-commercial use, so it always best to double-check. > Pre-release required legal changes for cassandra-java-driver > ------------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: CASSANDRA-18969 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-18969 > Project: Cassandra > Issue Type: Sub-task > Components: Build > Reporter: Michael Semb Wever > Priority: Urgent > Time Spent: 2h 40m > Remaining Estimate: 0h > > TODO > * there is still code copyrighted to others that isn't mentioned in > NOTICE.txt (e.g. ci/install-jdk.sh ) > * "© DataStax" still appears in the README > * spotbugs is LGPL, in 4.x, and not correctly made provided scope > * add any BSD/MIT deps to LICENCE > * ensure copyright headers are on all files, use rat plugin > These things must be done before a release. > Cat X deps we included as build tool by using scope provided we should put a > test in to ensure they work at runtime without the dep doesn't regress in the > future. -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.20.10#820010) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: commits-unsubscr...@cassandra.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: commits-h...@cassandra.apache.org
