             Summary: Verify licenses of dependencies
                 Key: BROOKLYN-21
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BROOKLYN-21
             Project: Brooklyn
          Issue Type: Sub-task
            Reporter: Richard Downer


Our dependencies must be compatible with ASF licensing policy; see:

A slightly looser standard may apply in some cases, see:

This may be useful for test-scoped dependencies (e.g. the LGPL MySQL JDBC 
driver), as long as we ensure that the user has to undertake an "informed 
action" to start using the non-policy-compliant dependencies.
