Hello,

We are evaluating Jackrabbit solution in a project that we are working on. It 
looks like the JCR 1.0 or JCR 2.0 jars, which contain the JCR APIs, are not 
part of the non-standalone distribution and so has to be downloaded separately. 
Question is if the JCR APIs found in the separate binary, javax.jcr.* falls 
under the Apache license as well.  If not, how does Jackrabbit have access to 
the JCR API ?

Based on the text in the Jackrabbit project page 
(http://jackrabbit.apache.org/downloads.html)

Apache Jackrabbit releases are available under the Apache License, Version 
2.0<http://www.apache.org/licenses/LICENSE-2.0>. See the NOTICE.txt file 
contained in each release artifact for applicable copyright attribution 
notices. Some Jackrabbit components contain external code with licenses that 
meet Apache licensing policies<http://www.apache.org/legal/resolved.html>. See 
the LICENSE.txt file contained in each release artifact for applicable licenses.

Here's another link that says that Apache Jackrabbit is licensed under Apache 
License 2.0  http://projects.apache.org/projects/jackrabbit.html

Thanks
