Matthew Hayes commented on DATAFU-76:
-------------------------------------
This code was copied into the linkedin/datafu github repo from other github
repos. It ended up in the Apache incubator git repo when the linkedin/datafu
git repo was imported. At that time (and still now) I could not find any
explicit license. I don't know of another way to include the code. The
purpose of this code is to make it easier to write pig unit tests. It enables
multiline strings via javadoc annotations. This makes it way easier because
pig scripts can be written as javadoc strings within the same Java file instead
of in separate files.

> It looks like the files in build-plugin were copied in from another github
> account. This is problematic as this code hasn't been given to ASF and
> doesn't appear to be ASL2 licensed (or even explicitly licensed at all). Is
> there no other way to include this code? If not, we need to figure out the
> licensing and copyright issues before it can be included.
