Oracle simply requires an agreement to distribute the jars (or put on a public repository). I am wondering why Apache Maven VIP's could not sign the agreement and distribute them from the repo1 repository.
Any idea who I could be put in touch with to do this? I have copies of the documents and contacts on the way to help get this in the queue. These are widely used jars and would save a lot of people a lot of time. thanks Si'mon Wayne Fay wrote: > > If you plan to distribute Oracle's proprietary jars etc, make sure you > have the proper licensing etc necessary to do so. > > (These issues are exactly why these jars are not already available in > the Maven repo.) > > Wayne > > On 5/31/07, Wendy Smoak <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: >> On 5/31/07, SiSi'mon <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: >> > >> > Yes, we have already done this (downloaded an put in local repository) >> and >> > internally we are doing this in development.
