Justin Mclean commented on FLEX-34729:
--------------------------------------
I Disagree. I'm not sure the above solution is correct as Adobe didn't have
permission to donate content they didn't own in the first place or claim
copyright of it. We've dealt with it, let move on. It's the non public domain
content that's the bigger issue.
What Adobe does with their version of the code should have no effect on us.
There's a small concern here that a 3rd party is saying how Apache licences
should be applied to our code, but there's no discussion from them in on this
subject in the dev (or even private) lists.
