Jukka Zitting commented on PDFBOX-420:
--------------------------------------
If you can, please try contacting Pin Xue again to get his confirmation on
contributing this under the Apache license.
How/why did you work together on this? If you share an employer and wrote this
patch at work, then an OK from your manager is typically enough and often
necessary, depending on the copyright terms of the employment contract.
How much of the code is written by Pin Xue? We can include the code under the
BSD license, but that requires special mentioning in the LICENSE and NOTICE
files that we and all the downstream projects need to worry about. So if it's
just a few lines of code then we're probably better off by just rewriting them
if we can't get an OK for the Apache license.
