| [technology-pmc] additional notest regarding Subversion licensing |
|
Hello Janet, I have a request related to the Subversive project. Today I received e-mail from Thomas Hallgren, where
he correctly mentioned my mistake regarding Subversion licensing. In
particular, Neon library has LGPL license (not GPL as I referred originally),
which, as Thomas mentioned, should be compatible with EPL terms and conditions.
So could I ask you to go through libraries, which we defined during a calls time
ago, and review licenses for all content. I need to have exact list of libraries,
which don’t compatible EPL and prevent distribution from eclipse.org. Having
this list we will be able to discuss libraries replacement with authors. Below you can find the list of Subversion
libraries:
Additionally it will be good if you can evaluate from
legal point of view alternative solution – SVNKit library (http://svnkit.com/). See correspondent IPZilla
item: http://dev.eclipse.org/ipzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=1648.
Does it license http://svnkit.com/licensing/index.html
is compatible with EPL? In order to migrating project to the eclipse.org we
need approval for svnjavahl.jar: https://dev.eclipse.org/ipzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=1649.
Please process this item. Best regards, Igor Vinnykov Subversive Team |
