   I approved this PR not because I'm a fan of removing potentially useful 
features in this way, but because I didn't see any alternative if we want to 
move forward with the first Apache release.
   
   Thinking twice, if we understand correctly, what it is not compliant with 
Apache policies is the use of the Oracle driver, that however we only use for 
tests (and in all honesty is highly questionable if a dependency with test 
scope should be considered among our actual dependencies and block the 
release). If that's the case the other alternative would be to keep the addon 
as it is and just remove the test. It's true that in this way we will end up 
with an untested addon, but I would argue that keeping this feature untested 
would be better than totally removing it. And on the longer term we could move 
this test, and maybe other with similar problems, into another project (maybe 
back in `kiegroup`?) so it won't be under the Apache control, but still we will 
be notified if a future change will break the addon.
   
   @porcelli please let me know if the alternative that I'm suggesting makes 
sense.
