release 0.6.0 is in breach of the AL2.0 and general Apache rules in regards to
the inclusion of Voldemort
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: WHIRR-442
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/WHIRR-442
Project: Whirr
Issue Type: Bug
Affects Versions: 0.6.0
Reporter: Patrick Hunt
Priority: Blocker
Fix For: 0.7.0
Release 0.6.0 is including the Voldemort jar w/o the required notices as
specified by section 4d of the ASL2.0
https://github.com/voldemort/voldemort/blob/master/LICENSE
Additionally Voldemort requires a "category X" licensed work which is not
allowed by Apache rules, specifically Voldemort uses "BDB java edition" which
is category X. See previous discussions on this:
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LEGAL-99
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LEGAL-113
http://www.apache.org/legal/resolved.html
The following has to happen before 0.7.0:
1) remove all jars from the source release artifact.
./services/voldemort/lib/linkedin-voldemort-0.90.RC3.jar
I also notice:
./services/hadoop/lib/hadoop-test-0.20.3-SNAPSHOT.jar
./services/cassandra/lib/apache-cassandra-0.7.0.jar
./services/cassandra/lib/libthrift-0.5.jar
2) do not compile or include dependencies of Voldemort as part of any Whirr
release, whether source or binary. I do not think that the Voldemort whirr
service itself need be dropped.
