Only a tyrant would agree with this freedom-threathing requirement. [/QUOTE] (With some tears) I have ripped out the module that was dependent on Oracle driver and the driver itself from the BUILTU, so now BUILTU does neither depend on Oracle driver nor does it bundle the driver.

Hi Mario, On Sat, Apr 17, 2010 at 03:46:09AM +, Mario Castelán Castro wrote: I'ts very easy to see the Oracle JDBC is propietary, because it excludes people from (Verbtim quote) Cuba, Iran, Sudan, Libya, North Korea, Syria, nor any country to which the United States has prohibited export. Only a tyrant would agree with this freedom-threathing requirement. I'm quite sure you don't want to exclude those people, but that is what happens when you develop a software using a library without reading the license first :(. This project (In it current state) can't be hosted here becuase we don't allow propietary dependies. A software than requires the user to install propietary software in order to run don't gives true freedom but only a false feeling of freedom to their users. Note that this is an optional dependency. While the dependency itself cannot be hosted on Savannah, its use is acceptable, as long as there's an equivalent or better free alternative - which, in this case of JDBC database access, means MySQL, PostreSQL, HSQL, Derby, etc. (Similarly projects that work on both GNU/Linux and ms woe are acceptable) I suggest clarifying this with the submitter :) -- Sylvain

Follow-up Comment #2, task #10340 (project administration): Hi Pasko, Mario has pointed out a few issues remaining with the project. I know you have done a great deal of work towards compliance, so let me add a few remarks. First, a small oversight: you still have not changed the README file to remove open-source, and you should not use that on the project description. With the ojdbc library you can remove it altogether since it's an optional dependency; it makes your whole project unusable for many people. See how the license, apart from what Mario states, requires to agree to this: You will not use the Programs for, and will not allow the Programs to be used for, any purposes prohibited by United States law, including, without limitation, for the development, design, manufacture or production of nuclear, chemical or biological weapons of mass destruction. It is a harsh requirement to not do anything prohibited by US law if you don't even live there; who knows what crazy things may be prohibited now or in the future? I am sure that Maven can be made to download ojdbc from a given URL, if needed; but it would be better to remove the dependency altogether and replace it with some free library. Even better would be to not depend on Oracle at all, but use a free database such as PostgreSQL or MySQL. At least (and this is a requirement) you have to make sure that your project works with a free database, and optionally with the proprietary ones. Finally, there is one point https://savannah.gnu.org/task/index.php?10294#comment3 which you have not addressed: you also have to make sure that builtu builds and runs with a free JDK, such as OpenJDK http://openjdk.java.net/. Please note that the hosting requirements are there because we believe in certain freedoms and we believe that they are not negotiable -- it is not OK to give them up to gain some convenience. I would like your project to be resubmitted and accepted because I would personally have found it useful, but it needs some further work. ___ Reply to this item at: http://savannah.gnu.org/task/?10340 ___ Message sent via/by Savannah http://savannah.gnu.org/
