Compatibility of code written in Scala with Apache License
Hi to all,
a quick question (I hope this is the right place for this question, if
not excuse me):
I have some code created in Scala, and I'd like (if accepted by other
team members, but in any case this is an interesting thing to know) in
the future to publish it into SVN here (I'm one of Apache Pivot
Developers), but I'd like a confirm that this will be compatible with
the Apache license.
The main dependency it has is to Scala, and then also with other
related Scala libraries mainly for tests (but this could be drop in
case of problems).
Scala is licensed in a similar way of BSD (
http://www.scala-lang.org/node/146 ,
http://www.scala-lang.org/node/249 ) ... so there shouldn't be
problems, right ?
Thanks you very much for the help,
Sandro

Hi Sandro,
you may be interested to know that is already a Scala-based Apache incubator
project: http://incubator.apache.org/esme/

Hi Bertrand,
thank you very much for the Help.
I find Scala very (complex but) exciting, so start some experiments in
Apache with Scala could be really a good thing, for both communities.

The best place for such questions is legal-discuss@apache.org, but I
think this case is simple enough to be answered here.

You should look at each library's license individually, and check
http://apache.org/legal/resolved.html or ask legal-discuss if unclear.

Those licenses look good to me, and IIUC they require the copyright
notice to be added to your project's NOTICE file.

You're welcome - anything that comes out of epfl is a Good Thing (my
office is just 2km from that ;-)
