Peter Klügl closed UIMA-3621. ----------------------------- Resolution: Fixed fixed > Improve license/notice files in Ruta > ------------------------------------ > > Key: UIMA-3621 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/UIMA-3621 > Project: UIMA > Issue Type: Task > Components: ruta > Affects Versions: 2.2.0ruta > Reporter: Peter Klügl > Assignee: Peter Klügl > Fix For: 2.2.0ruta > > > Reported by Marshall: > I noticed that some but not all of the internal projects within the examples > folder (example-project, extensions-project, TextRulerExample) have their own > license/notice - which can be a maintenance issue - for example, these have a > 2013 > end date in the Notice part. Normally, the License/Notice files are put at > the > top level of a distribution; I'm not sure why they're here. > The NOTICE file in many places has duplicate info for creative commons that's > also part of license file. Normally any information that's already in the > License file should not be also duplicated in the Notices file. The Notices > file is for things which are not part of the license terms, but need to be > present (such as copyrights). See > https://www.apache.org/dev/licensing-howto.html#simple > where it says, in part: > However, elements such as the copyright notifications embedded within BSD > and MIT licenses need not be duplicated in NOTICE -- it suffices to leave > those > notices in their original locations. > Looks like the build process for the individual project Javadoc jars is > including the license /notice files appropriate for jars containing Icons from > Mark James, but those Jars don't have those icons. > Also the Mark James attribution in both notice and license has an extra "the" > in > front of Mark James: > This product contains icons developed by the Mark James --- should read: > This product contains icons developed by Mark James -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.1.5#6160)
