Re: SASL - Sun Community Source Licence for JSR28

And here I was thinking it'd be a quick job to knock up a minimal SASL implementation for 1.4... Will probably write some sort of wrapper mechanism to choose default 1.5sasl or homebrew 1.4 and sidestep the licencing issue altogether. Hopefully getting mina to talk to this won't be too awkward.

Have we asked Sun if they are willing to put the API jar out there? From the wider communities point of view, this would obviously be the best solution? -- Rob

Yes, reading the licence I wasn't at all sure if it met the OSD or not. It seems to for 'Research' purposes (but wheres the source?), and the 'Commercial' purposes section possibly extends that, without adding too many more restrictions. Its a slightly perplexing licence though. It seems that its

2007-02-07 Thread Rupert Smith
Question directed towards Cliff Schmidt but open to all to answer. Is the Sun Community Source Licence Apache compatable? I'm wondering about this for doing the backport build of the Java client to 1.4. SASL was first added to Java as JSR28 and became part of 1.5. In order to use it in 1.4 we
