We know that SUN made Javamail 1.4 and Activation 1.1 available under
the new CDDL license.
The problem is that downloading this artifacts directly from
java.sun.com gives you signed jars including the OLD license file.
To obtain binary/source JARs including the new CDDL license we have to
use the maven-repository where the glassfish project deploy the artifacts:
https://maven-repository.dev.java.net/nonav/repository/javax.mail/
https://maven-repository.dev.java.net/nonav/repository/javax.activation/
This jars are not signed by sun.
Currently in trunk I committed the mail.LICENSE and activation.LICENSE
files from the java.sun.com files, but I think we should better use the
CDDL licensed packages.
To satisfy the CDDL license we should also add to your LICENSE.txt the
link to product sources:
from the source repository browser:
https://glassfish.dev.java.net/source/browse/glassfish/mail/
https://glassfish.dev.java.net/source/browse/glassfish/activation/
or even the maven repo (that contains sources)
https://maven-repository.dev.java.net/nonav/repository/javax.mail/
https://maven-repository.dev.java.net/nonav/repository/javax.activation/
From what I understood from here:
http://people.apache.org/~cliffs/3party.html
CDDL is part of Category B and not prohibited.
Does this means we can include the 2 jars in our svn lib folder like we
did for all the other BSD/MIT/PD artifacts?
This would really simplify the job of building james from subversion
using only ant.
