Hello All, I noticed a rather significant change submitted recently: http://svn.apache.org/viewvc?view=rev&revision=824836
My concern is not about the functionality - this sounds very much like something that POI should have. There are a few issues that come to mind, however: - This is a big chunk of work to submit with no supporting discussion e.g. a bugzilla entry or dev mail thread - There are now 7 new jars that POI depends on to build (my biggest concern) - There may be licensing issues (I am not in a position to judge this properly). The files all contain a comment "Based on the eID Applet Project code. Original Copyright (C) 2008-2009 FedICT". Is there a new relationship between POI and "eid-applet"? Could we at least document somewhere that this code contribution is properly sanctioned? - There is a (small) compiler error introduced apparently because the original code was compiled against JDK 6. cheers, Josh --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [email protected] For additional commands, e-mail: [email protected]
