+1. Thanks, David!
The NOTICE files in generated jar files, being created using the
maven-remote-resources-plugin, aren't proper. NOTICE files should
only contain legally required attributions, not a transitive list
of dependencies. IMO, they should be updated. However, as long as
the NOTICE files also contain the required attributions, I would
say this is probably a decision for the PMC.
A project decision, definitely. I encourage everyone to update
their votes if they feel they need to.
Any thoughts on resolution either for this or future releases?
I think Dave Jencks and Jason Dillon have done a real nice job of
integrating the m-r-r-p into some Geronimo sub-projects. Dependency
info (currently in your notice file) is created instead. There's no
fully-automated process for generating proper NOTICE files, at least
to my knowledge. However, since most notice files in an Apache project
only need to contain copyright information for the project. You can
hit most cases with a simple attribution and manage the non-standard
cases manually. It's still not an easy process...
The generated WAR file in openejb-itests-web did not contain a
license/notice file. The notice files for all itests artifacts
should be reviewed. I don't have internet access, at the moment,
but recall noticing a problem. Will take a look, once I'm connected
again...
Thanks!
The file container/openejb-jee/src/main/java/org/apache/openejb/jee/
oejb3/EjbLink.java has an incorrect src license header. I'll fix on
trunk...
Great. Merged that into our branch.
Given the legal tweaks, I think the best course of action is to
extend the vote out another 2 days (i.e. ending 72 hours from now).
If someone wants to rescind or change their vote, they'll have time.
Thanks, Kevan!
I won't have a chance to work on any of this until later today (might
be as late as tomorrow morning).
