The collator data files were contributed either by the Sun Globalization team (all CJK files) and have a Sun copyright header, or by OOo members, in which case a comment only states for which language/script the data is. Unfortunately hg log shows only the CWS integration commit comment, not the real commits that happened on the CWS, otherwise one could even dig out associated issue numbers and probably would find there the original contributors. Anyway, all submissions should have happened under JCA/SCA and thus are covered by the SGA. The indexentry data files were created by Karl Hong, working for the Sun Globalization team at that time. IIRC he used the CLDR main exemplarCharacters to generate them, see http://unicode.org/repos/cldr-tmp/trunk/diff/summary/root.html and individual language's charts, and added the index information. For CLDR data the applicable license is the Unicode Terms of Use, see http://cldr.unicode.org/index/downloads and http://unicode.org/copyright.html#Exhibit1 The Unicode copyright notice is included in readlicense_oo/html/THIRDPARTYLICENSEREADME.html Eike -- PGP/OpenPGP/GnuPG encrypted mail preferred in all private communication.
