Karl Wright commented on CONNECTORS-437: ---------------------------------------- r1308136 (trunk) > Remove all binary objects from source distribution > -------------------------------------------------- > > Key: CONNECTORS-437 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CONNECTORS-437 > Project: ManifoldCF > Issue Type: Task > Components: Build > Affects Versions: ManifoldCF 0.5 > Reporter: Karl Wright > Assignee: Karl Wright > Priority: Blocker > Fix For: ManifoldCF 0.5 > > > A board member of the ASF has indicated that it is a violation of policy for > any project to include binary objects as part of its distribution. While the > discussion is ongoing, it seems prudent to capture the required modifications > to ManifoldCF which will bring it into compliance into a ticket. As far as I > see it, these required modifications consist of the following: > (1) Separate releases of all dependencies that have been patched. This > includes ManifoldCF's patched httpclient, xerces, and jetty dependencies. > The patches and/or patched sources are currently in Jira or are in the > upstream area of svn. This should also include a Java 1.5 build of HSQLDB, > since this database is currently built by its owner only for Java 1.6 and up. > ManifoldCF releases of these packages may require modification of the > packages' ant builds to also adhere to the new Apache rule. Since we will be > checking in sources for non-Apache projects, namely Jetty and HSQLDB, we will > need to confirm that this is permitted under Apache rules. If it is not, a > separate googlecode project should be created instead to make these artifacts > available. > (2) Removal of all jars under the lib directory, and under the integration > areas of individual connectors. > (3) Additional ant "download-dependencies" actions to download all jars that > were formerly in the above locations. > (4) Removal of all mention of jars in the LICENSE.txt and NOTICE.txt files. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
