Hi, as already written per mail: (Paveljanik bogusly wants an issue for this in extra, so be it) - stax has no license mentioning at all in the module (CDDL/GPLv2 fwiw) - saxon has no license mentioning at all in the module That (at least for saxon) some .java files in the zip tell that it's MPL is not enough, people who check for licenses will not look deep in tarballs in some other tarballs. Please mention the licenses in the READMEs.
If the module has dual license, please explicitly mention, which license is used/has been approved for OOo.
P1?
Going to fix this right away..
After consultation of mh, I have contacted the admin of the StAX site to give an update of <https://sjsxp.dev.java.net/source/browse/*checkout*/sjsxp/repo/javax.xml.stream/java-sources/stax-api-1.0-2-sources.jar?rev=1.1.1.1> To have a license in the source bundle. Hopefully tomorrow, he is from Japan.
jsi: yes, license problems (especially NEW ones) are P1
Just an status update, I am mailing to ppl within Sun to add a license to the source package, but it is not that easy as responsibility was previously in Japan, now back in states, the time zones delay this task..
The issues should be resolved now. StAX: The StAX source package now contains a LICENSE.html with the dual license of CDDL 1.0 and GPL v2. This file is now as well in the download package and the readme was updated with the new package link and explicitly mentioning the usage of GPL v2 for OOo during build time. Saxon: Here as well a LICENSE.html was commited to the download package and the README file has been updated accordingly. This issue seems to be resolved now..
Moved for QA to RE
@RE: looks fine for me.
