Paul, I'll try to spell out the way that the SCA Specification collaboration works and the IP rules that apply. I'll do this in a post following from Mike Rowley's note on Project IP Yours, Mike. Paul Fremantle wrote: Jim I understand the IP and Royalty requirements of the published

Jeremy Thanks for the detailed reply. Geronimo has private lists for stuff under NDA and has had various people on different expert groups (e.g. a couple of us were on JSR-220). In general, there are a lot of Apache projects that work with the JCP and deal with the closed nature of JSRs -

Jim That's very interesting. It sounds similar to some work going on in Synapse where we have a recursive composition model. I think one of the key questions in forging greater links between Tuscany and the spec group is what the IP and membership regulations around the spec group? Is there a

The IP is royalty free and the license is printed in the body of the specifications. The specifications can be found at members' sites,e.g. http://dev2dev.bea.com/pub/a/2005/11/sca.html. On membership, I'm copying Mike Edwards since he is better at explaining that process than myself.

I can think of a couple of options that might work. 1. All Tuscany participants could join the spec collaboration and get first-hand information on issues and agreed changes. 2. Set up a private Apache mailing list on which non-public spec information could be distributed and discussions

Jim I understand the IP and Royalty requirements of the published spec. But what I don't understand is the IP and Royalty requirements of what you refer to as the spec group. I couldn't find anything on osoa.org. You talk about greater collaboration between the spec group and the tuscany group,

Paul, I'm going to ask others more versed in legalities to jump in regarding your questions...I do have a quick question though: how does Geronimo handle this as I believe the JCP IP rules are far more restrictive than those associated with the specs? Thanks, Jim On Jun 7, 2006, at

Good question... In the spec group, one of the major changes we are currently undertaking is a move to a recursive model where components can either be leaf-types (atomic) or composite, in which case they may contain children. In previous versions of the spec we had a two-level model
