------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Tue Jun 12 20:41:07 +0000 2007 ------- Non-JCA doesn't necessarily mean it's not part of OO.o. In fact, it doesn't really matter whether this piece is considered "external" or "part of OO.o", as long as the functionality is provided with the OO.o. Isn't that what matters ultimately? This Solver project has historically been a community effort - well, it's just my own effort for 99.9% of the code. And I'm a little concerned about the possible overhead it might incur by making this too coupled with the main code base (and the upstream development process, in particular). I believe that, for the long term, we would benefit more by leaving this piece external with a pure LGPL license, and use it as a means to encourage more community participation. We'll likely need a lot of help from those who are specialized in this field to bring this piece to the next level, and I don't think the current project structure is well optimized for that. So, it would be great if someone could check with Sun legal if it's possible to keep this code LGPL only, and integrate it as an external component. I realize there is no precedent for something like this, but trust me, it is worth the effort. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
