Hi Vincenzo, Inluding a third party library always includes that this library must be reviewed by the legal team. You do this by filing a so called "CQ" in IPZilla. This can be reached from your committer portal. Note that every new version of the third party plugin requires a new CQ.
Including the library in Orbit is always preferred to prevent that other plugins include the same library as binary (this is called a fat plugin and must be avoided).

The owner of the project seems agree to change its license (or dual licensing its project) which a license allowed by Eclipse : •Apache Software License 1.1 •Apache Software License 2.0 •W3C Software License •Common Public License Version 1.0 •IBM Public License 1.0 •Mozilla Public License Version 1.1 •Common Development and Distribution License (CDDL) Version 1.0 •GNU Free Documentation License Version 1.3 •BSD •MIT (found on page 2 of this document : https://eclipse.org/legal/EclipseLegalProcessPoster.pdf) So, I would like to know if I can embed the library as binaries into a plugin if the license is allowed by Eclipse ? In addition, do you know if dual licensing is OK (GPL and an others license ? ) I know in some case we could push used libraries into the Orbit project, but I would like to avoid this way.
