-------------------------------------
Summary: Clarify license of 52n-wps-client-lib
Key: TAVERNA-1004
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TAVERNA-1004
Project: Apache Taverna
Issue Type: Task
Components: Taverna Plugin GIS
Reporter: Edi Karadumi
Priority: Critical
52n-wps-client-lib from 52North has GNU General Public License Version 2 as
stated in the link below:
https://github.com/52North/WPS
52North licensing section (http://52north.org/about/licensing) mentions that
the licenses are changing from GPL to Apache in the future developments, but it
is not clear if this library's license might change and when.
In addition, it depends on other libraries
52n-wps-io - Apache v2 license
52n-wps-io-impl - GPL v2 license
52n-wps-io-geotools - GPL v2 license
52n-xml-wps-v100 - GPL v2 license
I have already contacted the 52North Geoprocessing community and I am waiting
for an answer. I am testing the library without using the 52-wps-io-geotools
dependency as it is only used in the examples, and I am calculating the efforts
needed to do a custom implementation of 52n-wps-io-impl.
