> Key: TINKERPOP3-719
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TINKERPOP3-719
> Project: TinkerPop 3
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: build-release
> Environment: all
> Reporter: David Robinson
> Assignee: stephen mallette
> Fix For: 3.0.0.GA
>
>
> The netty-3x jar contains an LGPL license as follows:
> ./hadoop-gremlin/target/hadoop-gremlin-3.0.0-SNAPSHOT-standalone/lib/netty-3.5.13.Final.jar
> grep LICENSE.jboss-logging.txt netty-3.5.13.Final.jar
> Looking at LICENSE.jboss-logging.txt, it shows this:
> GNU LESSER GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE
> Version 2.1, February 1999
> Copyright (C) 1991, 1999 Free Software Foundation, Inc.
> etc.
> Unfortunately, netty 3 is a dependency because of Spark / Akka.
> I am currently working with the Spark / Akka community to attempt to fix the
> problem on their end (Spark currently has this same GPL license due to Akka)
> so that we can fix the problem on our end. Opening this as a reminder for us.
> Tried netty 4, which solves the LGPL problem, but it is incompatible with the
> version of Spark supported by TinkerPop - and Spark/Akka doesn't support
> netty 4 yet to my knowledge.
