Emmanuel Lecharny updated DIRSERVER-2099:
-----------------------------------------
Component/s: legal
> NOTICE and LICENSE files for DS 2.0.0-M20 are incorrect
> -------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: DIRSERVER-2099
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DIRSERVER-2099
> Project: Directory ApacheDS
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: legal
> Affects Versions: 2.0.0-M20
> Reporter: Sebb
> Priority: Critical
> Fix For: 2.0.0.AM26
>
>
> NOTICE files are for *required* notices only; they must not contain anything
> that is not required.
> LICENSE files must contain the text of all applicable licences, or pointers
> to the license (which must be included in the distribution).
> See the process described here [1]
> I think that there are problems with both of these files.
> The NOTICE file contains a lot of extraneous text.
> The block enclosed in === should be removed entirely, as well as the
> following paragraph, which is an unnecessary duplicate.
> AFAICT the references to SafeHaus JUG and Clinton Begin don't need to be in
> the NOTICE file either.
> The LICENSE file says that JUG is licensed under AL v2.
> However it does not say which version of JUG is included.
> Similarly for the other 3rd party licences.
> The NOTICE file mentions software by Clinton Begin, but there is no
> corresponding mention in the LICENSE file.
> All bundled software must be documented in the LICENSE file.
> Entries in the NOTICE file must only be made if required.
