rat report looks good signatures are ok maven jars are the same as in other distribution - good work ! source builds
However, I found various dependencies which are not compatible with the ASF license. These dependencies are NOT included in any distribution file. However, as I read [1] ("which licenses are acceptable for use with an Apache product"), dependencies must also comply with the 3rd party license policy. Please correct me if I'm wrong. mysql-connector-java is released under GPL, according to [2] . GPL dependencies are not ok according to [3] Not sure about hsqldb. It is not explicitly listed on [4], but as it is a MIT style license, I presume it's ok, but IANAL. The h2database is dual-licensed under a modified mpl and epl. Both need to be appropriately labeled, see [5]. I do not see such prominent labelling in the distribution. The postgresql license is also not listed in [4]. I presume it's ok, but IANAL. So I'm afraid this is a -1. Thomas P.S. Sorry for waiting so long with the review, but I have been very busy personally and now finally managed to find a time slice for this.
