So let me try to remove the confusion. jfreereport is LGPL without a JCA, yes. So reportdesign is derived work that is distributed as an extension. As the latter is our own code and it is OOo code we committed it to the OOo source code repository and (for convenience reasons) build it together with the "core" code base. As we are currently talking about splitting up the source I think it makes most sense to have separate builds for each extension. So there would be a package/tarball containing the jfreereport binaries and the reportdesign sources. At least that's as I understood Martin and thus my "+1". If he was aiming for something else of course that would turn into a "-1". But I hope that I understood him right. > Either way, from my point of view it is plain 3rd party stuff, so I'd like to > let it in ooo-libs-3rdparty.

I think 3rd party stuff used in extensions should be separated from 3rd party stuff used for the "core" code base. I would even like to keep java libs separated from C(++) libs.
