I just learned that those files contain sample bitstreams contained as
hex-dumps within the standard. The standards are copyrighted by
ITU/ISO and contain the following notice:
All rights reserved. No part of this publication may be reproduced
or utilized in any form or by any means, electronic or
mechanical, including photocopying and microfilm, without
permission in writing from the ITU.
Although I don't think that the authors and publishers intention was
to prevent use of the sample bitstreams for testing purposes, the
statement clearly covers them. WDYT?
I'm going to e-mail ITU wuth this question although I am not too
optimistic about getting an answer some within this decade :-)
I have obtained written permission from an ITU representative allowing
us to use the files as intended. Does ASF have an established method of
documenting this permission?
The ITU requested that a license disclaimer/information be included
alongside the sample data. I have added it to the code base:
https://github.com/levigo/jbig2-imageio/blob/master/src/test/resources/images/README_SAMPLE_DATA_LICENSING.txt
Does this disclaimer create a conflict with the ASL?
