Hi Geir,

They are part of the schema in the spec pdf, no claimed copyright in the schema definition.

So I will go ahead and type the comments (I'm more than half way through it anyway) and then we can delete them if we need to.
OK?
Jeff or anyone else, who should I go to for official statement? [EMAIL PROTECTED]

We shouldn't retype the comments in the XSD just like the javadoc in the

This is debatable for XSDs. We currently seem to be using a lot of XSDs
verbatim for the SPECs, so we need an official statement on this.


Thanks,

John

Hi All,

I think this must have gotten lost in the traffic over the weekend.

Anyone know if I should/have to retype all the documentation comments
in the XSD?

Thanks,

One other question - the documentation comments in the XML schema for
the spec? Should I type in these comments or leave them out?

Thanks,

BTW add a jira for this, so everyone knows you are working on it.

Hi All,

Thanks for the comments.

Dain: Yeah its not copying out of the pdf but simply typing, hardly feels like original work though so even though I'm not copying, it
sure feels like it. :-)

I'll leave the comments out and post a patch after I get one more
pass over it (~early next week).

TTFN,

Hi All,

I've started getting ready for JSF 1.2 and figured that a good place for the api jar to land is the uber spec project @ G for
JavaEE 5.

I'm most of the way there for Servlet 2.5 and JSP 2.1 but I was
wondering about javadoc. Does anyone know what the rules are
regarding javadoc in the spec code? I've just been doing a
straight copy/typing of the api and leaving out the javadoc. But looking back at the Servlet 2.4 and JSP 2.0 spec modules all the
javadoc is there.

No "copying" only "typing" is allowed.

I'd like to submit the patch for Servlet 2.5 and JSP 2.1 in the next week or so. If anyone knows the definitive answer (or since we are not lawyers as close to definitive as possible:) I'd love
to hear it.

I have not been copying the javadocs into the specs I have worked on. I think that our servlet 2.4 and jsp 2.0 specs are copied from tomcat where they were IIUC donated complete with javadocs by sun. I think leaving out the javadoc is the wisest course.

Yes, the javadoc comments are owned by Sun. If you would like to write your own *original* javadoc comments, that would be cool,
but not necessary.
