Tim Allison commented on TIKA-2399:
-----------------------------------
There is a legal team, but I don't think they do much lobbying. I've been
surprised how open people are to changing their licenses when kindly asked.
The problem with jpeg2000, as has been highlighted in our discussion with ucar,
is that trying to reach all the contributors is tricky to say the least.
On a side note, did you see that Levigo is considering contributing jbig2 to
the ASF or
[PDFBox|https://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg48027.html]?
> Version conflict with non-ASL jai-imageio-jpeg2000 and edu.ucar jj2000

> Key: TIKA-2399
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TIKA-2399
> Project: Tika
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: parser
> Affects Versions: 1.15
> Reporter: Tim Allison
>
> For users who want to extract jp2000 from PDFs for inline-image OCR, they
> have to add non- ASL 2.0 compatible:
> {noformat}
> <dependency>
> <groupId>com.github.jai-imageio</groupId>
> <artifactId>jai-imageio-jpeg2000</artifactId>
> <version>1.3.0</version>
> </dependency>
> {noformat}
> However, this creates a conflict with GRIB's jj2000:
> {noformat}
> <dependency>
> <groupId>edu.ucar</groupId>
> <artifactId>jj2000</artifactId>
> <version>5.2</version>
> </dependency>
> {noformat}
> [~mcaruanagalizia] (I'm guessing?) identified this conflict
> [here|https://github.com/ICIJ/extract/blob/master/pom.xml] and fixes it by
> upgrading jj2000 to 5.3. However, that doesn't exist in maven central, but
> only in [Boundless|http://example.com].
> What do we do?
> # We could exclude the jj2000 dependency from GRIB, and that functionality
> won't work for GRIB folks
> # We could add a warning if we see {{jai-imageio-jpeg2000}} is on the
> classpath to instruct users to exclude jj2000.
> # Other options?
