Independent of the developers involved and the individual rights they might have, I understood that the whole repository was Oracle's copyright property and thus a copyright license from them was required for any member of this or other projects to use code from any given CWS unless it had already been integrated into AOO and thus fallen under the blanket grant made by Oracle. For the legacy Mercurial repository Andrea mentioned to be useful to future developers I would expect the copyright status of the repo to thus need clarifying, and I don't recall seeing a definitive statement. > What CWS did you have in mind specifically? > There was a discussion in the pre-TLP archives (which I can't find any more) listing interesting CWSes.
