Kevan Miller commented on GERONIMO-3309:
----------------------------------------

J2G is not building completely for me, at the moment. I can build enough to see 
that there's additional licensing work required.

For instance, there are a number of jar files being included in j2g jar files. 
For instance, org.apache.geronimo.j2g.util-1.0.0-SNAPSHOT.jar includes 
pull-parser-2.1.10.jar. We need to know the license(s) that apply to this jar 
file. pull-parser comes out of Extreme Labs, it looks like. It's not clear to 
me what license(s) apply to this jar. We need to pin this down precisely. This 
process needs to occur for all such dependencies. As apropriate, these licenses 
need to be reflected in the J2G license and notice files.

I also noted that the J2G jar files are missing license and notice files. They 
must have them. These files should reflect the license and notice information 
for each jar file.

For general guidance on apache license and notice file handling, see -- 
http://www.apache.org/legal/src-headers.html
 
For guidance on what licenses are acceptable to Apache, see --

Jason, if you're interested in doing this investigation, that would be great. 
However, a Geronimo committer is going to need to carefully review all of 
this...
