Hi,
Unfortunately I have not been able to have a good look, but I just had a
brief look.
So if I understand correctly the problem is:
The osgi wrapped Jena bundles in the Clerezza
repository do not have the correct content.
Especially the NOTICE and LICENSE files.
I had a closer look at jena-iri. For this one the LICENSE file is the
same in both so no problem here, but the NOTICE file is different.
This can be solved in a few different ways. But to pick the right
solution we need some background on how we got here. See issue
CLEREZZA-824 [1] for more details. We needed Jena to not only look like
OSGI bundles, but to act like them as well.
1) Have the Clerezza ext bundles include/copy these (and maybe other)
files from the original jar file.
Seems like an easy fix, however I personally like to get rid of these
ext bundles if I can. They only exists since we need OSGI access to
plain jar files. However, it also brings an additional maintenance
burden. Whenever the upstream jar file changes we need to modify the
wrapper to cope with the new version. This instead of just modifying a
dependency version number.
2) Use the current Jena OSGI bundle
I have 2 objections to this one. First of all I fear running into the
same kind of issues that lead to CLEREZZA-824. Second this OSGI bundle
seems like a second class citizen. The Jena project is divided into a
couple of nice looking modules. But when is comes to OSGI these modules
are all wrapped together into a single bundle even though OSGI is all
about being modular.
3) Modify jena to improve OSGI support
This one has my personal preference. But is also harder to achieve since
it is beyond our (Clerezza) control and requires close cooperation of
the Jena community.
So which direction shall we take?
Regards,
Minto

@Minto did you have a chance to look into the isse with the notice file or
at the new jena bundle version?

Reto - have you tried the released Jena OSGi bundle?

This seems a little odd to me. It looks like they are placing these
artifacts in their own group ID. However it still sets a slightly strange
precedence if Apache Foo can release artifacts named Apache Bar even if
they do so under their own maven coordinates
Is this something they've been doing for a long time or is this a new
thing?
It is something which clerezza had been doing for a very long time. Apache
servicemix does the same for other projects that do not ship OSGi bundles,
see: http://mvnrepository.com/artifact/org.apache.servicemix.bundles
Of course in an ideal world Jena would be modular and all it's jars would
also be OSGi bundles, after all this is just a couple of lines in the
manifest file.
If new why couldn't they work with us to provide the fixes back to Jena?
What clerezza is doing is not an actual fix, but rather a wrapping. Stian
did something similar.

PMC,
Clerezza is proposing redistributing modified Jena 2.13.0 binaries.
NOTICE and LICENSE have been changed. These would go into the Apache
release maven repo.
The binaries are currently at:
https://repository.apache.org/content/repositories/orgapacheclerezza-1009/
org/apache/clerezza/ext/org.apache.jena.jena-core/2.13.0_1/
(Modified version number as well - it does not make clear that 2.13.0_1
is not Jena-project release.)

Hi all,
This is a partial clerezza release of 23 modules bringing the
following
improvements:
- Fixed issues preventing rdf.rdfjson and rdf.jena.sparql to expose
their
OSGi-DS services
- Updated to latest version of Jersey
- Updated Jena Version
- Contains integration tests
It contains the following artifacts that shall be released to maven
central:
Where are the convenience binaries? (I didn't see anything on
https://repository.apache.org/#stagingRepositories but may have missed
something)
Enabled now. Here:

Could you have used Jena's OSGi artifact?
The binaries have had the NOTICE and LICENSE files replaced in both jar
and sources.jar. These miss the necessary declarations.
