A while back someone asked if ASF was reviewing CDDL to allow including part of glassfish into a future MyFaces JSF1.2 implementation. Did a review ever happen?
My understanding is JSF1.2 (and the rest of glassfish) is CDDL licensed, and that CDDL is _NOT_ compatible with the Apache license. Someone from Apache legal needs to review this issue, and in the meantime we need to remove anything that comes from the JEE5 RI. > -----Original Message----- > From: Simon Kitching [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Thursday, December 01, 2005 12:14 PM > To: MyFaces Development > Subject: Re: svn commit: r350265 - /myfaces/api/trunk/src/java/javax/faces/component/UIComponent.java > > [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > > Author: mkienenb > > Date: Thu Dec 1 07:59:09 2005 > > New Revision: 350265 > > > > URL: http://svn.apache.org/viewcvs?rev=350265&view=rev > > Log: > > Copied JSF RI 1.2 javadoc for setParent(UIComponent) > > Do we really have the "all clear" to copy JSF1.2 javadoc to MyFaces? > I know that one of the MyFaces developers stated that he had chatted > with Ed Burns (JSF1.2 spec lead) on IRC and had been told that the > license for JSF1.2 allowed this.
