Hi John, The code doesn't have any hibernate dependency. But as part of dev environment, to execute integration tests, we are using hibernate. AFAIK LGPL is allowed for dev environment.

Does the release make sense with this context? Regards, Adi -----Original Message----- From: John D. Ament [mailto:johndam...@apache.org] Sent: 08 July 2016 17:02 To: gene...@incubator.apache.org Cc: dev@fineract.incubator.apache.org Subject: Re: [VOTE] Release Apache Fineract 0.3.1 (incubating) Sorry but -1 due to transitive LGPL dependencies that come in with the project. Findbugs jsr305 shows an inconsistent license, some places show Apache others show LGPL. LGPL is the generally regarding cannonical license AFAIK. In addition, springboot-starter-data-jpa brings in a transitive Hibernate 4.3 release, which is also LGPL. Though I'm happy to hear arguments from IPMC members why this may be OK for an initial release, since the source release does include a proper disclaimer.
