Hello Michael Thank you for the update. Going through your response we understand, Junit is used for testing Lucene and is not distributed. In that case, can you’ll update your source repo for Lucene to exclude references to ‘junit’ from Notices.txt file since it is something which is not part of distribution for Lucene.

This is regarding Lucene component licensing. The maven repo link https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/org.apache.lucene/lucene-queries/4.10.4 for lucene-queries 4.10.4 shows Apache 2.0 license associated with the component. Also, the archive (lucene-queries-4.10.4-sources.jar) uploaded has a LICENSE.txt file which has Apache 2.0 license, but it also includes a NOTICE.txt file which shows JUnit (junit-4.10) licensed under the Common Public License v. 1.0. But there is no code associated with Junit included in the source archive (lucene-queries-4.10.4-sources.jar) file. In this case, since Common Public License 1.0 is more restrictive compared to Apache 2.0, for our better understanding, can you clarify to us on what is the actual Open Source license associated with the Lucene component? Mentioning just two of the lucene components in mail as example for your reference "lucene-backward-codecs 9.3.0" https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/org.apache.lucene/lucene-backward-codecs/9.3.0 Looking forward to your reply. Thanks , Open Source Request Team
