Robert Muir commented on ORP-3:
-------------------------------
I would like to further mention some of my later thoughts, I am not a lawyer
but I think by additionally doing these things I would feel better about
things. Please comment/correct these ideas.
* I think the ant target and build directory called 'dist' should be renamed to
something else. we should not redistribute any data or imply we are doing this?
* I think at the top level we should have a README/LICENSE that explains that
the data being fetched is not under the Apache License, perhaps containing a
LICENSE reference to each collection.
* I think the resulting 'artifacts' that the build process produces should
never be 'released' so to speak, only the mechanism for a user to download
these. Perhaps when they run ant for a collection they might even need to hit
Y/N to agree to the license, since it is not apache?
* The above shouldnt be too much concern for automated builds, as we cant
really do automated builds anyway, because regularly downloading huge
hundreds-of-MB collections from these servers is something I think we should
avoid.

> Key: ORP-3
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ORP-3
> Project: Open Relevance Project
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Collections
> Reporter: Andrzej Bialecki
>
> Each collection should (maybe even MUST, given the goal of this project) have
> a LICENSE.txt that contains the license and terms of use of the collection.
> This is required so that the users of ORP are aware of legal ramifications of
> using any given collection in their derivative work.
> Each collection should also have a README.txt that shortly describes the
> origin and content of the collection - in some cases the composition of a
> collection, or the way it was created, may change the significance of results
> based on this collection.
> I propose to add an ant rule that enforces the presence of these two files
> for each collection.
