Billie Rinaldi commented on HADOOP-12893: ----------------------------------------- I took a look at the patch. Apache releases cannot contain any LGPL dependencies, so if any exist they must be removed before a release can be made. Going through the list of things that are stated to be LGPL in this patch: * FindBugs-jsr305 looks like it might be BSD, but I'm not sure (https://github.com/findbugsproject/findbugs/blob/master/findbugs/licenses/LICENSE-jsr305.txt) * Data Mapper for Jackson and Xml Compatibility extensions for Jackson are dual-licensed AL (http://wiki.fasterxml.com/JacksonDownload under "Licensing") * Javassist is triple licensed MPL/LGPL/Apache (https://github.com/jboss-javassist/javassist/tree/rel_3_18_1_ga) The following items I can't find bundled; can anyone else? If they aren't actually bundled, we don't need to mention them. * logback could be licensed under EPL instead (http://logback.qos.ch/license.html) * jdiff is LGPL and can't be bundled I haven't looked in detail at the other additions in the patch, but we should make sure they are all bundled dependencies. I was wondering about the inclusion of mockito and junit, for example. Are those actually needed, or is it just a case of not specifying the test scope for those dependencies in some of the modules? > Verify LICENSE.txt and NOTICE.txt > --------------------------------- > > Key: HADOOP-12893 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-12893 > Project: Hadoop Common > Issue Type: Bug > Affects Versions: 2.8.0, 2.7.3, 2.6.5, 3.0.0-alpha1 > Reporter: Allen Wittenauer > Assignee: Xiao Chen > Priority: Blocker > Attachments: HADOOP-12893.01.patch > > > We have many bundled dependencies in both the source and the binary artifacts > that are not in LICENSE.txt and NOTICE.txt. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: common-issues-unsubscr...@hadoop.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: common-issues-h...@hadoop.apache.org
