Hello,

+1 : I appreciate Mark's concern wit dependencies licenses
Since we're at this, JAXB license doesn't seem so Apache-friendly :
Jon is working on upgrading 7.1.x to JAXB 2.3.2, and he mentionned
this link for JAXB source:
https://github.com/eclipse-ee4j/jaxb-api/tree/2.3.2.
This later page mentions an EDL 1.0 licence which sounds rather unlike
usual Apache's.
Isn't there a Geronimo replacement for JAXB which could be shipped in
TomEE to avoid it ?

Kind regards,
Alexandre Vermeerbergen
