["Robert Kanter (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OOZIE-2723?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=15644722#comment-15644722 ] 

Robert Kanter commented on OOZIE-2723:
--------------------------------------

I think it's funny that the reason the license is not allowed is because it has a clause that says:

The Software shall be used for Good, not Evil.

> CAN APACHE PRODUCTS INCLUDE WORKS LICENSED UNDER THE JSON LICENSE?
> No. As of 2016-11-03 this has been moved to the 'Category X' license list. Prior to this, use of the JSON Java library was allowed. See Debian's page for a list of alternatives.

> Looks like this is on branch-4.3 and later. (maybe earlier if it was brought in transitively.
