Summary: Add "Open-source licenses" to menu
Key: TAVERNA-1012
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TAVERNA-1012
Project: Apache Taverna
Issue Type: New Feature
Components: Taverna Mobile
Reporter: Stian Soiland-Reyes
Priority: Critical
Fix For: mobile 1.0.0
As discussed on
[dev@taverna|https://lists.apache.org/thread.html/b374b2aa60af1231cd63bf405ed7a3fa557d5882d958e0bfd334f5bb@%3Cdev.taverna.apache.org%3E]:
Add a menu item, something like
> Settings -> Help & feedback -> Open-source licenses
to show the LICENSE.txt and NOTICE.txt
including those we are required to propagate from third-party libraries bundled
inside the .apk.
To check what we are required to propagate it should be sufficient to check the
licenses of our dependencies and look if the inside of the JARs already have a
NOTICE or LICENSE file or similar.
(E.g. an Apache-licensed JAR with no NOTICE file? Nothing more to do. A JAR
with a BSD-3 LICENSE file? We need to show that)
Sadly tooling for this is still a bit abysmal, so we probably have to create
that text file manually.
