The entries at the beginning are all Category B licenses, and ... "Software under the following licenses may be included in binary form within an Apache product if the inclusion is appropriately labeled (see below):" This is my understanding of "appropriate labeling". > The source license and notice should be different from the binary licence and > notice as the contents of the artefacts are different.

I’s suggest you read Roy’s view on this [2]. I don't think that's true, if a test needs a jar to load to test jar loading. That's what this is AFAIK, just like including a JPEG in the source distro to support a JPEG test. It is not black-box compiled code that is part of the software product, which is what Roy is correctly calling out as not OK in a source release. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@spark.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@spark.apache.org
