Jerome Lacoste commented on MWEBSTART-20:
-----------------------------------------

Note: https://deployment.dev.java.net/ also packages the JnlpDownloadServelt 
The project is under the LGPL... too bad as the original code for the 
JnlpDownloadServelt was under the APL.

> sort out potential licensing issue of the pack200 tasks

> The pack200 ant tasks are under the SPL (Sun Public License) (accroding to 
> the project page). The source code of the tasks itself has a Sun copyright 
> header (that's OK), but also a SUN PROPRIETARY/CONFIDENTIAL tag. I tried to 
> contact the task author several times (by email). No answer.
> I believe the PROPRIETARY/CONFIDENTIAL tag is a mistake. The author is/was a 
> Sun enployee and the header comes probably from a template. The tasks have 
> been used by other articles and projects.
> - what is the compatibility of SPL and APL 2.0 ?
> - if there's any issue, we can rewrite the code.
