David Crossley commented on FOR-857: ------------------------------------ For the 0.8 release we added a listing of pathnames for all licenses for supporting products, into the top-level LICENSE.txt file. That was reasonably easy with 'find' because we tried to maintain a file naming convention following the {packageName}.license.txt pattern. That was double-checked by searching for all jar etc packages and ensure that they had a matching license file. That process needs to be repeated each at release until we get a better way. > append license files to the top-level LICENSE.txt > ------------------------------------------------- > > Key: FOR-857 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FOR-857 > Project: Forrest > Issue Type: Bug > Components: Project administration > Reporter: David Crossley > > Evidently the license files for accompanying external products needs to be > appended after the Apache License in the top-level $FORREST_HOME/LICENSE.txt > rather than the current situation with scattered individual license files. > Perhaps the current discussion on the legal-discuss mailing list will clarify > http://www.apache.org/foundation/mailinglists.html#foundation-legal -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
