Per Danny's request I've moved this discussion to the developer list. Let me see if I understand correctly. Our distributed locking code could be compiled into James but in order for people to use it, they would have to download JGroups on their own? Would the build system have to download JGroups to build? I'm assuming including JGroups in CVS would also be a form of distributing JGroups.
This seams like a kind of crappy solution but acceptable. -Mike On Wed, 2004-08-04 at 03:48, Danny Angus wrote: > Mike, > As I understand it James can depend upon LGPL, but we can't distribute LGPL > dependancies, and there are other concerns, but we can work it out, LGPL is > OK, if slightly awkward. > Perhaps you'd like to move this discussion to the developer list? > > d. > > > > > |---------+----------------------------> > | | Mike Heath | > | | <[EMAIL PROTECTED]| > | | om> | > | | | > | | 03/08/2004 11:48 | > | | PM | > | | Please respond to| > | | "James Users | > | | List" | > | | | > |---------+----------------------------> > > >---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| > | > | > | To: James Users List <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > | > | cc: > | > | Subject: Re: Custom locking for James cluster > | > > >---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| > > > > > I am pleased to announce that I have received permission from my > employer to contribute our distributed locking code to James.
