Clover

Hey,
I saw the reset additions to the POMs for clover. Have we applied for
a non-commercial license so we can all benefit from these changes? or
am I miss reading the licence info:

No, I believe you're incorrect. What's important here is that there's  
no clover license made available here, nor is clover itself made  
available. The pom holds clover plugin configuration and nothing  
more, and I seriously doubt there are any issues with your pom  
defining configuration for publicly-available maven clover plugins.  
Nobody can run it unless they're a committer and can obtain the  
Apache license, or unless they happen to have their own license.

If you still disagree, please point specifically to chapter and verse  
stating that adding such configuration to your pom is illegal. If I  
have this wrong, I'll happily back it out.

Steve,

We can't integrate Clover into the codebase / toolchain. I would suggest 
that we back this out as it does not meet Apache license guidelines. I 
think if someone has clover they can run it and fix issues however the 
license does not allow those issues to be reported on JIRA, or in any 
public way.

Reading the Clover license, integrating this into a public project is 
clearly in violation of the posted license.

Carl.
