Josh Elser commented on RATIS-680: ---------------------------------- Thanks for the new patch, Anu. Sorry for the delay on reviewing it. Including the license header for PureJavaCrc32.java, bulk_crc32_x86.c, bulk_crc32.c is unnecessary in the LICENSE file. The LICENSE file already covers all Apache-Licensed code in Ratis. We only care about code that is being redistributed under some other license. The section you added for the 2-clause BSD (the "For the lookup tables in PureJavaCRC32C.java" part) licensed portion is great. The phrasing there is specific enough to tell us what part of that file is BSD licensed. The section for "For portions of the native implementation of slicing-by-8 CRC calculation" is still insufficient – you've not addressed Justin M's concern. The text which says "BSD-style license" is not sufficient. You must copy/paste the exact BSD variant from the LICENSE file included in the codebase this code was copied from into Ratis' LICENSE file.
