Felix Meschberger commented on FELIX-3511:
------------------------------------------
> Perhaps it would be nice to use it in future 'official' versions ?
>From a technical POV there is IMHO no reason to switch. To the contrary, the
>current setup allows Event Admin to also be used on limited resources and
>embedded devices. Particularly embedded devices often times are running J2ME
>which is not compatible with Java 5 and does not provide Java 5 API.
As from a licensing POV, using this library is not a problem, except that we
need to have proper attribution.
I would prefer to keep it in the sense of "don't change a running program" and
to stay open for non-Java 5 environments.
> Apache Felix EventAdmin 1.3.0 -> Without oswego stuff
> -----------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: FELIX-3511
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FELIX-3511
> Project: Felix
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Event Admin
> Affects Versions: eventadmin-1.3.0
> Reporter: Matthias Donat
> Priority: Minor
> Labels: java, license, patch
>
> The Event Admin bundle uses content from Oswego
> (EDU.oswego.cs.dl.util.concurrent) that is functional also available in the
> standard java library (java.util.concurrent).
> I have made a version without the Oswego stuff based on the actual trunk (rev
> 1324766) using java.util.concurrent.
> Perhaps it would be nice to use it in future 'official' versions ?
> It would also eliminate the need to put the extra-license from Oswego
> discussed
> earlier (http://osdir.com/ml/dev-felix-apache/2010-02/msg00401.html)
> Contact me if you're interested,
