Hi all,
IMHO with the NOTICES and LICENSE added by Christian and that the „Streaming API for XML“ is added as binary (JAR) we are align with the legal terms defined by Apache: http://www.apache.org/legal/resolved.html#category-b Other Apache projects also include the „Streaming API for XML“ with the CDDL license reference. https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/LENS/Licensing+in+Apache+Lens https://github.com/soundasleep/simple-cmis-java/blob/master/lib/opencmis/DEPENDENCIES The only part I would change in the LICENSE is the used url: http://www.sun.com/cddl/cddl.html to this: https://glassfish.java.net/public/CDDL+GPL.html Because the first seems outdated and the second one is also used by the „Java Streaming XML Parser“ website: https://sjsxp.java.net Kind Regards, Michael > On Mar 30, 2016, at 1:53 PM, Amend, Christian <[email protected]> wrote: > > > Hi all, > > > In preparation for our release I have added the server extension module to > our release build.
