Steven Rowe commented on LUCENE-3228:
-------------------------------------
bq. I don't think there's anything left here but to resolve as Won't Fix
I disagree.
bq. 1) we don't distribute dev-tools in our releases, so at a minimum we'd need
to find a new home for any package-list files we wanted to ship.
How does {{lucene/src/tools/javadoc/}} grab you?
bq. 2) the Java documentation from Oracle has some licensing/restrictions that
affect redistribution which don't seem to be compatible with ASF 3rd party
licensing policy so we can't include the java package-list files in our releases
Here is a direct link to the Sun/Oracle documentation redistribution
restrictions: [http://java.sun.com/docs/redist.html].
We can include the Java javadoc package-list file in Subversion but exclude it
from our source releases, and include a mechanism to download it when it's
absent (i.e., in the source release).
There is an ASF precedent for redistributing Java javadoc package-list files in
the Maven project's javadoc plugin:
http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MJAVADOC-315 and
https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MJAVADOC-327 - in Subversion at
[http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/maven/plugins/trunk/maven-javadoc-plugin/src/main/resources/org/apache/maven/plugin/javadoc/].
I can't find any associated discussion of legal ramifications, though.
I'll put up a patch shortly implementing these ideas.
> build should allow you (especially hudson) to refer to a local javadocs

> Currently, we fail on all javadocs warnings.
> However, you get a warning if it cannot download the package-list from sun.com
> So I think we should allow you optionally set a sysprop using linkoffline.
> Then we would get much less hudson "fake failures"
> I feel like Mike opened an issue for this already but I cannot find it.
