A question for the more legal-wise of the developers. I am investigating
Tuscany-2568 (https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TUSCANY-2568)
which is to provide a Tuscany JavaScript client model for Atom data.
Luciano and I have discussed the issue a bit, and at this point I am
investigating two possibilities:
1) Grow an Atom Publishing Protocol JavaScript client from scratch
(which is similar to the Abdera Atom model).
2) Use an existing APP JavaScript client model, such as the model that
exists in the Google GData JavaScript client API. Notice that a few of
the Tuscany projects already use the Google GData API, but none that I
have seen have embedded or loaded the GData library from a JavaScript
client.
My question is, if I go down the second route and use the GData model,
does the Apache Open Source licensing coexist peacefully with the terms
of service of the Google Data APIs?
(http://code.google.com/apis/gdata/client-js-terms.html)
If no one knows the answer right off the bat, I will research the answer
myself, but I just wanted to float the question in case anyone had quick
answers or a person to contact.
