Josh Elser commented on CALCITE-1562:
-------------------------------------
bq. I don't think anyone ever intended to release this under GPL or LGPL, and I
don't think anyone believes that anyone released it under GPL or LGPL.
I hate to get into such an argument, but I don't *know* that.
bq. To me, the pom accompanying the jar in maven central is much clearer
evidence of intent than the text on the findbugs web site.
This pom?
http://search.maven.org/#artifactdetails%7Ccom.google.code.findbugs%7Cjsr305%7C1.3.9%7Cjar
Maybe I'm missing something, but it seems awfully unclear (claims to be ASLv2,
points to a website which says lgpl/gpl in the first paragraph, but actually is
BSD).
bq. even though we know that there is no fire
I don't agree with your analogy here, again, because I do not accept that it is
clear-cut that it obviously is BSD licensed. Additionally, I'm calmly asking a
question -- no jumping at all :)
bq. There is a cost to transitioning to Stephen Colebourne's version: we stop
using the javax.annotation package name, so we are no longer compliant with
JSR-305.
This is true -- I'm not sure if/how it would affect the maven-findbugs-plugin
or other static analysis tools.

> The licensing on com.google.code.findbugs:jsr305 is rather murky. It would be
> trivial to switch over to using
> com.github.stephenc.findbugs:findbugs-annotations which is clearly licensed
> and provides the same functionality.
