Sandro Martini commented on PIVOT-843:
--------------------------------------
Licensing review of the code in attach:
- the code has not a license in every (nor in any) source file, so should see
(with the original author) if the Apache license is good for him (but I think
yes)
- the code belongs to Philip Schatz ( www.philschatz.com ), and in the PDF in
attach I see that he said to Arindam that he/we could use his code, but I don't
think this is enough at ASF to accept the code, but following these rules
should help to fix this part of the discussion:
http://incubator.apache.org/ip-clearance/index.html
Of course I could handle all this (trying to contact Philip, etc), but we
have to see if he wants/is interested in doing this.
And of course this is a blocker for all the following points, even for
accepting this code under one of our Pivot-related subprojects under
Apache-Extras.
- the code has some dependencies to Eclipse SWT which is licensed under the EPL
license, so look here for Eclipse license compatibility with the Apache License
v2:
See "EPL 1.0" under http://www.apache.org/legal/resolved.html#category-b
but on this licenses are compatible so there shouldn't be problems
- BUT the problem is here (and it's a question that arise some times during
last years):
we can't (or better, don't want to) have dependencies to eclipse libraries in
core Pivot due to their complexities etc ... and the same for other complex
libraries.
So this is a blocker for adding this inside Pivot core.
But one time solved all previous points we could think to put that code under
pivot-contrib ( http://code.google.com/a/apache-extras.org/p/pivot-contrib/ )
in a dedicated subproject ... or better, I could add Committer grants directly
to Arindam and/or Philip and let him/them commit there.
Like what already done in the guretzki subproject there.
I'm sorry for raising all these problems, but it's better now (before doing
things) than later ... and licensing issues here at ASF are really important
things (as should be generally speaking).

> Copying and Pasting an image that is of the windows specific CF_DIB clipboard
> format, causes the image to split about 1/3rd and then re-attached to the
> remainder of the image. I have been able to locate some previously coded
> free-standing java code to copy and paste CF_DIB clipboard images. Maybe that
> code can be incorporated into Pivot to solve this issue?
