Robert Kanter updated OOZIE-2723:
---------------------------------
Attachment: OOZIE-2723.001.patch
The patch refactors the two places where we were using JSON.org artifacts to
use json-simple artifacts, one of the listed alternatives (and Oozie already
uses it in many places).
After this patch, Oozie itself no longer uses JSON.org artifacts. However,
JSON.org still comes in transitively from Apache Hive and Apache Pig. Once
these artifacts remove JSON.org, everything will be 100% kosher here. We can't
simply exclude JSON.org from these because they'll likely break and there's no
newer version without JSON.org at the moment.
> JSON.org license is now CatX

> CAN APACHE PRODUCTS INCLUDE WORKS LICENSED UNDER THE JSON LICENSE?
> No. As of 2016-11-03 this has been moved to the 'Category X' license list.
> Prior to this, use of the JSON Java library was allowed. See Debian's page
