> Key: TAVERNA-1004
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TAVERNA-1004
> Project: Apache Taverna
> Issue Type: Task
> Components: Taverna Plugin GIS
> Reporter: Edi Karadumi
> Priority: Critical
>
> 52n-wps-client-lib from 52North has GNU General Public License Version 2 as
> stated in the link below:
> https://github.com/52North/WPS
> 52North licensing section (http://52north.org/about/licensing) mentions that
> the licenses are changing from GPL to Apache in the future developments, but
> it is not clear if this library's license might change and when.
> In addition, it depends on other libraries
> 52n-wps-io - Apache v2 license
> 52n-wps-io-impl - GPL v2 license
> 52n-wps-io-geotools - GPL v2 license
> 52n-xml-wps-v100 - GPL v2 license
> I have already contacted the 52North Geoprocessing community and I am waiting
> for an answer. I am testing the library without using the 52-wps-io-geotools
> dependency as it is only used in the examples, and I am calculating the
> efforts needed to do a custom implementation of 52n-wps-io-impl.
