Fabrizio Giustina updated MAGNOLIA-540:
---------------------------------------
Summary: Replacing default multipart filter implementation
(problematic com.oreilly.servlet package license terms) (was: problematic
com.oreilly.servlet package license terms)
Component/s: core
Fix Version/s: 3.1 M4
(was: 3.1)
Priority: Critical (was: Major)
Setting release version and moving to an higher priority, cos license terms
could be problematic and this issue is here from too much time...
After my recent fixes the new commons-fileupload implementation looks good, and
someway also better than the cos based one (there is an additional request
wrapper which makes easier to deal with multipart forms).
I'd like to see this becoming the default in 3.1-m4, by renaming the old cos
filter to CosMultipartRequestFilter and CommonsFileUploadMultipartRequestFilter
to MultipartRequestFilter. If no issues are found in this milestone we can
easily drop the cos dependency (along with the filter implementation) for the
first RC.

> The WAR file download contains Jason Hunter's com.oreilly.servlet package in
> the WEB-INF/lib directory. Its license terms (see
> http://servlets.com/cos/license.html) are problematic I fear.
> Especially items 5 and 6 are currently violated:
> "5. The distribution includes copyright notice as follows: "The source code,
> object code, and documentation in the com.oreilly.servlet package is
> copyright and owned by Jason Hunter." in the documentation and/or other
> materials provided with the distribution.
> 6. You reproduce the above copyright notice, this list of conditions, and the
> following disclaimer in the documentation and/or other materials provided
> with the distribution."
> Both "license.txt" and "release notes.txt" contained in the WAR file download
> do not mention anything demanded by the terms cited above.
> A problematic second point is the license for commercial usage and
> redistribution as every developer must own a copy of Jason's book or
> negotiate a seperate license.
> Jakarta Commons FileUpload (http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/fileupload/) is
> a possible replacement at least for some functionality.
