Stevo Slavic created KAFKA-5977:
-----------------------------------
Summary: Upgrade RocksDB dependency to legally acceptable one
Key: KAFKA-5977
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-5977
Project: Kafka
Issue Type: Task
Components: streams
Affects Versions: 0.10.0.0
Reporter: Stevo Slavic
Priority: Critical
Fix For: 1.0.0
RocksDB 5.5.5+ seems to be legally acceptable. For more info see
- https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LEGAL-303 and
- https://www.apache.org/legal/resolved.html#category-x
Even latest trunk of Apache Kafka depends on older RocksDB
https://github.com/apache/kafka/blob/trunk/gradle/dependencies.gradle#L67
If I'm not mistaken, this makes all current Apache Kafka 0.10+ releases not
legally acceptable Apache products.
Please consider upgrading the dependency. If possible please include the change
in Apache Kafka 1.0.0 release, if not also in patch releases of older still
supported 0.x Apache Kafka branches.
