"found code" is for code that is license compatible, but for which we have no CLA on record, meaning we cannot mix it with other code that might be donated back to GeoTools or otherwise relicensed at a later stage. So the module needs to be labelled and isolated.

Read carefully the "motivation" for the GSIP, and the proposal section as well: https://github.com/geoserver/geoserver/wiki/GSIP-186#motivation

So how would I in this particular case deal with these stipulations:

- "The licence is compatible with the GeoServer licence, and clearly identified both in the source code, in the documentation of the module, and in the module release zip package":

So can this just be geoserver license? There is no other license involved.

- The headers from the original files are maintained, and not updated to indicate (c) OSGeo Foundation.

But the headers already indicate this... Because the code was explicitly allowed to be donated to geoserver, I added the geoserver headers. There was never any other release of the code than this one.
