identifications. The policy we are trying to accommodate our software (which 
uses CXF) to has rather strict license requirements.

KK>> We refer to the terms as covered by the header as 


KK>> WS-Addressing Specification License


KK>> In scancode the license is known under the id ws-addressing-spec:

KK>> While scancode indicates a permissive license here. The policy we try to 
adhere to indicates that this license only grants permission for the prupose of

KK>> Could you please elaborate on how the Apache Foundation / CXF assesses 
this license?
KK>> Is there any background information that this license does not interfere 
with a general distribution and use of the schema as part of cxf-core.jar?


KK>> Any details and/or pointers regarding this topic are highly appreciated.

KK>> Under which license terms do you regard this file being distributed as 
part of CXF? 


KK>> Sorry for boiling up aspects that are in the codebase since decades. We 
just need good arguments why things work.
