Stian Soiland-Reyes commented on TAVERNA-898:
---------------------------------------------
I updated
https://github.com/apache/incubator-taverna-workbench/blob/master/NOTICE to
reflect the license - but the treetable files themselves need to be updated
from a newer archive.org file - probably the Sun folks forgot to update all the
source code files in the zip.
> Review JTreeTable license
> -------------------------
>
> Key: TAVERNA-898
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TAVERNA-898
> Project: Apache Taverna
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Taverna Workbench
> Reporter: Stian Soiland-Reyes
> Labels: license
>
> https://github.com/apache/incubator-taverna-workbench/blob/master/taverna-ui/src/main/java/org/apache/taverna/lang/ui/treetable/JTreeTable.LICENSE
> says the embedded JTreeTAble code is under a BSD license, however the
> individual files say otherwise:
> https://github.com/apache/incubator-taverna-workbench/blob/master/taverna-ui/src/main/java/org/apache/taverna/lang/ui/treetable/TreeTableModel.java
> {code}

> While the original pages are gone from sun.com - a visit at archive.org for
> the relevant dates:
> https://web.archive.org/web/20040404152740/http://java.sun.com/products/jfc/tsc/articles/treetable2/index.html
> both src.zip there and
> https://web.archive.org/web/20040409021100/http://java.sun.com/products/jfc/tsc/articles/treetable2/src/TreeTableModel.java
> has the same restrictive header.
> However if you jump forward in time the license headers are updated:
> https://web.archive.org/web/20080409134553/http://java.sun.com/products/jfc/tsc/articles/treetable2/src/TreeTableModel.java
> Perhaps we just have to play code detective and update our treetable/ folder
> use a newer version of this example code - even if we have to get it from
> archive.org the license would still be valid.
