-------------------------------------------------------------------
Here is a summary of the 3rd party components used.
1) Downloaded at build time:
||cpt||version||licence||license link||notes||
| boost | 1.61.0 | MIT | http://www.boost.org/users/license.html | See Note 1
below |
| pyxb | 1.2.4 | Apache 2.0 | http://pyxb.sourceforge.net/legal.html | |
| eigen | 3.2 | MPL 2.0 |
http://eigen.tuxfamily.org/index.php?title=Main_Page#License | See Note 2 below
|
***Note 1***
PyXB: Python XML Schema Bindings
http://pyxb.sourceforge.net/
http://pyxb.sourceforge.net/legal.html
says
“PyXB as a whole is made available under the Apache License v 2.0.”
See also
https://github.com/pabigot/pyxb/blob/next/LICENSE
which has the standard Apache License Version 2.0 verbage.
However, we noticed that it has a GPL 3.0 sub-component:
https://github.com/pabigot/pyxb/blob/next/doc/extapi.py
(This seems strange, but anyways…)
Remedy from Sept 2015:
* At build time, we remove this GPL sub-component since it is not needed,
just to be 100% sure we are only including Apache License Version 2.0 software.
* This is the reason there is a message during build that says “PyXB: Removing
GPL component from code base”
*** Note 2 ***
Eigen
http://eigen.tuxfamily.org/
http://eigen.tuxfamily.org/index.php?title=Main_Page#License
says
“Eigen is Free Software. Starting from the 3.1.1 version, it is licensed under
the MPL2…Note that currently, a few features rely on third-party code licensed
under the LGPL: SimplicialCholesky, AMD ordering, and constrained_cg.”
MADlib uses a later version than 3.1.1.
Remedy from Sept 2015, as per Roman's guidance at that time and as per
http://www.apache.org/legal/resolved.html#category-b :
* Cloned Eigen header files and made needed changes, then maintained on a
separate GitHub repo https://github.com/madlib/eigen
* This modified Eigen GitHub project carries forward the MPL license. The
commits showing changes made are here
https://github.com/madlib/eigen/tree/branches/3.2
* At build time, MADlib project will then include the Eigen header files from
this repo
* Also we use the EIGEN_MPL2_ONLY preprocessor symbol to explicitly exclude the
LGPL components
