Olivier Tavard commented on CONNECTORS-1492:
--------------------------------------------
Hi,
I'm trying again to revive this thread, to see if there is any update on this
topic.
I can work on the subject if nobody currently works on it. Considering the
popularity of Docker, we think it is a quite important topic for MCF .
Regarding the last comment of Karl, I don't think there is any legal obstacle
to provide Dockerfile/Docker compose files for the dockerization of MCF, except
for JCIFS-NG library. Indeed, on the Apache foundation page :
[https://www.apache.org/legal/resolved.html#category-a] it is explicitly stated
that PostgreSQL does not pose any issue. This means that we should only give up
on a fully functional windows file connector OOTB.
Any opinion ?
