Subject: Re: [jira] Commented: (JAMES-461) Maildir support
This is a borderline case.
I agree.
And this is not in the interest of people using Apache software.
I don't agree: Not all apache software users use it due to the ASL
licensing. I believe that most James users would use it even if it were
GPL.
So I think that *adding a new feature* is not against "the interest of
people using Apache software"
Furthermore the fact is that we simply want to overcome a limitation of
Javamail Stores. This is not a Maildir issue, neither an issue with the
GPL Java implementation of the Javamail Store with Maildir format.
The contribution is about the support of Javamail Stores as Repositories.
This has nothing to do with the GPL!!!
> A major point not to include or support code under the GPL is to keep a
clear license situation.

Again, can you tell me what is GPL in the contributed code? I do like to
talk about *real* things: both you and Noel are talking about GPL-ASL
integration and not about the contribution itself.
You probably being fooled by the GPL and Maildir words in the JIRA issue
comments, but I think that it worth to look at the contribution itself
before starting such long threads.

It is not about what is in the code, but about if there could be a license
problem. And to create a problem there does not need to be GPL-code
incorporated in James.
