The source distribution contains junit.jar. Is that a problem?


Excellent question. The policy for Apache projects as of this moment
is contained here:

http://people.apache.org/~cliffs/3party.html

JUnit is CPL 1.0, so must be included in binary form only, and
*appropriately labeled*:
http://people.apache.org/~cliffs/3party.html#labeling-reciprocity

Since the NOTICE file for 10.1.2.5 does not point to the relevant
source distribution of JUnit that is included, there is a problem with
our -src distribution. Either junit.jar must be excluded from the -src
distribution, or the appropriate notice must be included in NOTICE.

Thanks, Knut, for pointing out this problem.

Hey Andrew,

I have checked in a fix (DERBY-1886) which removes junit.jar from the source distributions. I'd rather not spin a new release candidate. Instead, I was hoping that the following would be adequate:

1) Hand-remove junit.jar from the source distributions for 10.2.1.5.

2) Re-sign those distributions.

Does this sound adequate?

Thanks,
-Rick
