I would have said that this is only kosher when you have an alternative
to the incompatibly licensed software. Is the indexer actually optional
(I don't have enough context)? Are there ways for me to to indexing of
the same type of data that don't require use of these incompatible
dependencies?
Billie might be able to provide some more context too.

Could we revive the indexer profile again?
(tl;dr: Yes. Mentors: Please correct us if we're wrong)
This might be a solution. I found a couple similar cases with Apache
projects and discussions related to those cases.
Apache Flink integrated with Amazon Kinesis [1] and [2]. Note that Kinesis
is an optional profile, and it's well documented in the POM why it's
optional.
(Note that NiFi got around this by using Amazon's SDK for Java [3], which
is purely Apache 2.0)
Spark uses optional profiles to build artifacts based on LGPL
dependencies. Spark has to built by the user to use netlib [4][5], Ganglia
[6], or Kinesis [6].
I think a profile will work, but I'd like to see it well documented (both
in the POM and manual) so that we never accidentally create a release with
these artifacts.
I was going to open a separate ticket to implement this, but I think it's
good to track all of this effort under RYA-177.

Great find Aaron!
The ESRI library is quite comparable!
Rya via Geomesa are using *JTS Topology Suite (*JTS): (the javadocs at
vividsolutions seems to be 404 )
http://tsusiatsoftware.net/jts/javadoc/com/vividsolutions/jts/geom/Geometry.html
Far from a drop-in replacement, but a path forward:
http://esri.github.io/geometry-api-java/javadoc/
Interesting, ESRI has Shape file support, but no GML, the opposite of JTS!

Yeah, that sounds possible. I don't like the idea of having to maintain
another build/ci/release process, though.
More importantly, we'd also have to modify our GeoIndexer interface [1]
to
something Apache Friendly. It looks like Ersi puts out an Apache 2.0
library [2].

Hi Aaron,
Thanks, wasn't finding that list quickly...
It sounds like the GeoMesa/GeoTools usage might fall under this Q/A:
http://www.apache.org/legal/resolved.html#optional.
Thoughts?

Jim,
We've been working off of these lists:

Hi David,
A number of the geo-dependencies are likely from the geo-indexing
(which
uses GeoMesa (Apache 2.0) which uses GeoTools and JTS).
Are there options to make the geoindexing a profile, provide the
source,
and not provide artifacts for that code at Apache?
Also, is there a list of approved licenses for Apache projects
dependencies?
Cheers,
Jim

Okay: A number of CDDL and CPL licenses -- permitted if no source
