Shivaram Venkataraman commented on SPARK-5676:
----------------------------------------------

Just to clarify some things: 

- Having a separate repo for cluster launch scripts was a conscious decision in 
order to separate out release level changes from runtime settings (like Ganglia 
config etc.)
- Though the repository exists in mesos/spark-ec2, AFAIK it is only used by the 
Spark EC2 scripts. In fact we do track some bugs in that repo using issues in 
the Spark JIRA. 
- However from what I can see, I don't think the repository's license affects 
the Spark project in anyway. It is not distributed as a part of any artifact we 
build and EC2 support is in itself a strictly optional component. That said it 
is good to have a LICENSE file, so we will add one.

> There is no LICENSE file or licence headers in the code in the spark-ec2 
> repo. Also, I believe there is no contributor license agreement notification 
> in place (like there is in the main spark repo).
> It would be great to fix this (sooner better than later while contributors 
> list is small), so that users wishing to use this part of Spark are not in 
> doubt over licensing issues.
