Hi > - NOTICE is missing
From what I can see now, we need an NOTICE file, inside which we should mention the codes copy of of the Caucho Hessian Project. Do you think would that change be enough for the next round of release? > It would be good to know more the history here and why this was done, where > there talks with the Caucho and they gave permission to do this?

The hessian-lite module has already exist long before Dubbo joined ASF, I am not sure if the original developers who did this still active in the mailing list, so it’s hard to tell the whole story. But I think at least something is sure about why we need to maintain a separate copy: 1. The Caucho Hessian community[1], we’ve seen its activity in a very low level for a really long time. To meet requirements we do have to maintain a copy inside our community. 2. Hessian works as a serialization protocol in Dubbo and has been widely used by users. It’s the core part of an RPC framework, most users will stay on Hessian and won’t change. > are some of those developers involved here? I remember Xin Wang in our community has tried to contact the Caucho Hessian community for some reasons months ago. Maybe he can give more information on that. 1. http://hessian.caucho.com/ Jun > On Mar 20, 2020, at 11:49 AM, Justin Mclean <jus...@classsoftware.com> wrote: > > Hi, > > -1 (binding) as the release is missing a NOTICE file and files missing ASF > headers > > I checked: > - signature and hashes are fine > - LICENSE exists > - NOTICE is missing > - no unexpected binary files > - some files are ASF headers or unknown licensed 3rd party code e.g. [1] (I > just check a couple of file not all and found this) > - can compile from source > > Is there any reason for the large number of files copyright "Copyright (c) > 2001-2008 Caucho Technology, Inc”?
