Michael Jumper commented on GUACAMOLE-144:
------------------------------------------

There seems to be quite a lot of dual-licensed code for which the GPL portion 
of the license is not stripped:

https://github.com/search?utf8=%E2%9C%93&q=org%3Aapache+gpl&type=Code&ref=searchresults

That said, it's made clear that it's the non-GPL license chosen. For example:

https://github.com/apache/ode-console/blob/2573d34cc642ad75f09c24531a0cbba67c53c07f/legal/jquery.xpath.js-LICENSE

> Only CDDL license should be included for CDDL+GPL dependencies

> ... some files (for instance \[1]\[2]]) contain the text of the GPL license. 
> GPL is Category X and is not allowed as a dependancy (unless it’s an optional 
> component or build tools like autoconf in the sever artefact). I think this 
> may be is OK as the software in question is dual license but if that is the 
> case you should just include the text of the license you wish it to be 
> licensed under no the text of both licenses. Can you please fix this in the

> Assuming it is legal to do so, the license text of bundled dependencies which 
> are dual-licensed CDDL+GPL should be modified to specify only the licenses 
> which actually apply to Guacamole (in this case the CDDL).
