Hi Yusaku, I was referring to the Rackspace copyright in the client code. Which looks like a oversight and has been thus removed from the code. And so is not a issue anymore.
I have few reservations with this solo effort by Greg.I have requested Greg to include the client into the Apache Ambari Project and also embrace the Apache way .This can help bring more people into Ambari project for example when we have changes in stacks/blueprint/REST API etc this would be good for a new contributor by giving him/her an opportunity to contribute the patches to the client code. I would have really liked The existing client to be made more bug free along with the shell but it is for the community as a whole to decide where we want to go with the client code ; do we throw away old efforts or build on it with Greg's ideas/code Do not intent to overlook Greg's efforts and will support the decision of the community .
