With the non-donated parts, should we try to ascertain the state of their licenses? It seems we can access the original files - either through the old repository or via java de-compiling.
I think getting it to compile without requiring modification should be the first goal. I would think that reviewing changes from where the branch is currently towards getting it compiling is worthwhile to ensure we are tracking any work that we are necessitating by having functions that need to be implemented etc. Having a pull request to look at might be a good way to get the ball rolling.

Some findings: 1.- There's a parser module that was not donated. Simplest thing to do is to use the original one released under the GPL/CDDL license. This is already in the "/binaries" OSUOSL. 2.- Some other parts were not donated either. Simplest thing to do is to implement APIs with some sensible defaults in order to compile things, then implement them once things build. 3.- This is a big cluster and I'm not sure how to review everything. Maybe the idea is to have the cluster compiling, do a review of all stuff, and then proceed with fine-tuning. Thoughts? I think I have a branch in a laptop somewhere, maybe I can update it and do a preliminar PR for review. Kind regards, Antonio P.S.: I think these missing parts were not donated because of licensing issues, probably because evaluating third-party licenses was too complicated/impossible during the donation.
