Gang,
I promised a release by today, but I just detected that the Licensing
is in a mess, and if we want to ship something prudent and legal, I
need to fix it all.

FYI,
every dependency comes with a license, and in that license there are
conditions. Some licenses, the conditions are simple and straight
forward, like Apache and BSD, but they are still conditions that must
be met. Other are a bit more complex, and those needs to be addressed
too.

In any event, I will try to work through all the modules as fast I
can, and cut the release when I have done so.

On particularly complicated case is the Neo4j extension, which on one
hand the Copyright owner provides a Entity Store extension for it with
an Apache license for source code, but what happen if I ship that
Entity Store in an SDK. Legal text seems to indicate that the entire
SDK would need to become AGPL. An official clarification from Neo
Technology would be appreciated, I think.


Cheers
