Hi ant,
Thanks for pushing on this. Its been a few days and there seems to be no
movement on any public lists. What should be our next step to get the
one last vote to make the release happen?
Thanks,
Vinayak

Its fine as it is, the text that is already included in the LICENSE file
satisfies the attribution requirements. Requiring text in the NOTICE file
is only for very particular purposes so is not normally required, this was
clarified in LEGAL-62 and the legal-discuss@ discussion around that JIRA.
The DBLP README you point to also is clear about what they want -
"a simple note refering to DBLP and/or a link back to DBLP's website is
sufficient"
Which is exactly what the VXQuery LICENSE file has.
Lets wait just a short while longer and then i'll get the JIRA close and
ping back on general@ to see if the release can now get another +1 vote.

After Craig's and Chris' +1 on the JIRA, I think that we are down to the
questions
1) if we only need the license in the LICENSE file (as in the current RC)
or if
we also need an entry in the NOTICE file and
2) if 4.2c and d of the http://opendatacommons.org/licenses/by/1.0/require us
to also put http://dblp.uni-trier.de/xml/README.txt into the distribution.
What do you think?
Thanks,
Till

Thanks ant. What is the next step to get the final vote? Should we send
another email to general@?

Yes to all those. Well ok I'm not sure if its usual, but its certainly
possible, and it should address Dave's concerns and even if it it doesn't i
think it should be enough to get a +1 from some other Incubator PMC member
which is all thats really needed.

Hi Ant,
Seeing your comments on the JIRA I'm wondering if it is possible/usual to
close legal JIRA's by lazy consensus. And, if so, do you think that this
would address Dave's concern?
Thanks,
Till

Yes, those assumptions are right.
Marvin already added some nice and detailed comments on the license and
the use
of the database in VXQuery to the JIRA issue.
I've just added another comment stressing that modification of database
hasn't
happened and most likely won't happen.
Thanks,
Till

Thanks for the notification. And well done!
I understand that "database" to be basically an XML file. And we are
distributing this
- unmodified
- and as a part of the source release only
Are these assumptions right? If so, I propose to note this on the
issue.
Thanks,
Jochen
