(b) Approved Apache Releases - (Unapproved Releases may be shown if they are Draft or “Pre-Release”) ALSO - NPM. https://www.npmjs.com/package/echarts <https://www.npmjs.com/package/echarts> NO RCs - only (a) pre-Apache and (b) Approved Apache Releases. Please update the license Releases to non-Apache distributions are termed NOT OFFICIAL RELEASES - non the less these must be built from approved official source releases. See http://www.apache.org/legal/release-policy.html <http://www.apache.org/legal/release-policy.html> Mentors are here to answer questions.
