Hey Justin, thanks for the feedback. ; o)
Sorry if this call was confusing, but yes it is a call for a vote. We know about the issue with GPL (Hibernate Entity Manager), and started a discussion thread a while ago, asking for some guidance. It was not really clear to us, if we really need to change it, given we release source only and only use Hibernate at runtime for our integration tests. Your comment is pretty clear about that now. In addition we thought it is fine to call for a vote and sort out this issue with upcoming releases throughout incubation, but maybe we are wrong here. Best, Markus .::YAGNI likes a DRY KISS::. ---------------------------------------- > Subject: Re: [VOTE] [FINERACT] 0.1.0.incubating for release > From: jus...@classsoftware.com > Date: Thu, 14 Apr 2016 15:42:09 +1000 > To: general@incubator.apache.org > > Hi, > > Little confusing if this is a call to vote on the incubator or not but either > way this may help. > > If it is an incubator vote I’d vote -1 (binding) due to LICENSE/NOTICE issues > and possible inclusion of Category B/Category X licensed software in a > release. > > I checked: > - Signature and hashes good (but you may want to upload your KEY to > http://hkps.pool.sks-keyservers.net) > - DISCLAIMER exists > - LICENSE has issues (see below) > - NOTICE also has issues (see below) > - Several java source files are missing headers > - There an unexpected binary file in the source release [5] > > Your mentors should be able to help out with assembling LICENSE and NOTICE. > If your’ve not done so you may want to run rat over the source release and > it’s picking up a few issues.
