Jaroslav Tulach commented on NETBEANS-1995:
-------------------------------------------

As far as I can tell the {{extra}} directory isn't part of the final ZIP file. 
E.g. no GPL binaries are distributed. As such the release is safe.

The {{LICENSE}} file shouldn't list these files. As far as I can see that is 
the only problem. I'll try to reach to Toni and wake him up. Give him ten days 
to fix the problem.

> I suspect this was introduced by this PR:
> https://github.com/apache/incubator-netbeans/pull/917
> A comment regarding the problem remained unanswered.
> GPL-2-CP is (not yet?) cleared for inclusion by the ASF:
> https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LEGAL-336
> Either lawyers from oracle (as the copyright holder of the JDK/JavaFX) come 
> up and work with the ASF to fix this or the files have to removed at this 
> point.
