------------------------------

> source-release.

> Key: JENA-232
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JENA-232
> Project: Apache Jena
> Issue Type: Task
> Components: ARQ, Jena
> Reporter: Andy Seaborne
> Assignee: Andy Seaborne
> Priority: Minor
>
> The W3C test suite, applying to tests created after 2008, has a special
> license:
> http://www.w3.org/Consortium/Legal/2008/04-testsuite-license.html
> This license does not meet the criteria for open source because it does not
> permit modification.
> (see [1] Item 3). The primary source release artifact for an Apache project
> must contain only open source material.
> This will affect tests produced by the current (2012) RDF and SPARQL working
> groups.
> The core and ARQ source-release artifacts need to ensure that the W3C test
> materials are not included, and that will also mean running the tests needs
> to cope wih the fact some of the tests are not available.
> The project can use the W3C tests for internal testing.
> Jena can point to the location for the tests so someone in receipt of the
> source release can retrieve them (the framework for running the tests is
> included in the product.
