Ah, so you are using the ElasticSearch REST client then?

Sounds like a reasonable solution.

Hi Jim, In the last ElasticGeo release I removed the org.elasticsearch:elasticsearch dependency and as a result freed it from the transitive Guava dependency. Guava is still used in the project but I backed it down to version 17.0 for consistency with GeoServer (see POM <https://github.com/ngageoint/elasticgeo/blob/df1234c3d56f43a0cdd46c98545798a92a6c0fd6/pom.xml#L39>).

    Jody,

    Thanks for your quick response. It does sound like a pain. I'll
    look into the CLA.

        You can see the language used here -

        Indeed we tried to make our demo code public domain, but
        because that was not a license it made it even harder for
        people to use. We now have our demo code as BSD.

            It has been done before in the geotools library. Mostly
            for us government employees who's work is in the public
            domain (since it was paid for by the people).

            Please understand that public domain is an alternative to
            copyright - not an alternative to having a license. Indeed
            copyright is the stick we use to enforce our open source
            license.

            I cannot remember the details now but you basically put
            your contribution into the public domain and we pick it up
            (changing the packages and so on becoming contributors and
            donating it to the geotools project).

            So this is really not a lot of fun; do you have a legal
            requirement to use the public domain? Or are you just
            looking for an alternative to your employer signing a code
            contribution agreement?

                Is it possible to make a public domain contribution to
                GeoTools and GeoServer without a CLA? I'm interested
                in contributing an Elasticsearch plugin
                (https://github.com/ngageoint/elasticgeo
                <https://github.com/ngageoint/elasticgeo>), which is
                licensed based on the GeoTools (LGPL) and GeoServer
                (GPL) components. My contributions to the plugin are
                public domain. I can reach out to the list again in a
                separate thread on whether this would be welcome and
                what would be required from a technical perspective
                but wanted to start with this question first.
