Bug#1053542: src/javax/annoation/* license
It looks like the only annotations we use are @Nonnull and @Nullable. We /could/ just strip the concurrent annotations out while we figure out what to do (hopefully none of the plugins depend on the javax.annotation.concurrent package). The original problem was that /all/ javax.annotation.* files were marked as CC-BY-2.5. Which confused me, since the license of the jar file we are using was Apache 2.0.

@Thorsten Alteholz: Can you please explain /why/ you think those files have the CC-BY-2.5 license? We are currently using the JSR305 annotations ( https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/com.google.code.findbugs/jsr305 ) which has an Apache 2.0 license. What it /looks/ like to me is that someone decided that everything in the javax/annotation directory had a CC-BY-2.5 license. I wasn't able to find any information on that via a quick search, but maybe you have more context on that. Thanks, Taylor
