I believe the alternatives that were mentioned were to either get 
the OK from legal or not deliver the jcr block as part of the 
release.  If the answer above means you don't feel we have 
permission than the release should go out without JCR.
      
The API can be redistributed with an implementation, and we do 
redistribute the implementation. Does this give use the permission 
to redistribute the API with the implementation? IANAL and I don't 
know...

    
Ok, so how do we solve this issue? I understand the comment from Roy
that we are not allowed to ship the jar right now. I personally would go
the easiest way: remove the jcr api from the repo, disable the block by
default, add a readme that people have to download the jar and put it
into local libs to build the block.


My understanding from Roy is that, if we ship Jackrabbit, we don't need 
the JCR jar, as Jackrabbit provides its own impl. Does it still work if 
you just remove the JCR jar? Or did I misunderstand something?
