Anton Epple commented on NETBEANS-5109: --------------------------------------- In the absence of a release tag, I've staged commit a15b592 at maven central: > ant -autoproxy -f ./make/langtools/netbeans/nb-javac publish-to-maven-central >-Dmaven.groupId=com.dukescript.nbjavac -Dmaven.version=a15b592 https://oss.sonatype.org/content/repositories/comdukescript-1135/ I've closed the staging repository and I'm ready to press the release button in nexus ui when the change is integrated. > Remove distribution of nbjavac from apache controlled infrastructure > -------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: NETBEANS-5109 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NETBEANS-5109 > Project: NetBeans > Issue Type: Bug > Components: java - Compiler > Affects Versions: 12.3 > Reporter: Matthias Bläsing > Priority: Blocker > > The ASF has a pretty clear opinion about the handling of the GPLv2-CPE. There > might be an option to distribute it, but not out of the box. After the > transition of NetBeans from oracle to the ASF there was a timeframe were use > of the Oregon State University was ok, as the transition was happening. I > think we stretched that limit to the max and thus I consider this a blocker > for the next release. The nbjavac needs to be moved of ASF controlled > infrastructure. > There are various options: > - Oracle could publish nbjavac to maven central > - Oracle could provide a custom updatecenter distributing the nbjavac > - Oracle could relicense javac > - Apache NetBeans could switch to the eclipse java development tools > Not all of these options are realistic, but publishing to maven central is > perfectly doable. > I'll mark this as a blocker for next release, so it is not ignored. -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.3.4#803005) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: commits-unsubscr...@netbeans.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: commits-h...@netbeans.apache.org For further information about the NetBeans mailing lists, visit: https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/NETBEANS/Mailing+lists
