Licensing question concerning jQuery use
Hi, all.
I’m currently working on get the cas-browser (a module that works with Balance) ready to submit for out project. There’s no patch or issue yet, but don’t worry, they’re coming. The cas-browser uses jQuery (a 3rd party library at jquery.org) for much of its functionality. Jquery can use the MIT and GPL licenses (http://jquery.org/license). Which license should I use? Do I need to include a header for either of these licenses, and, if so, where would I find these headers and I which files would I have to include them? Only in the jQuery libraries that we include in cas-browser or in all cas-browser files that use jQuery?
Thanks!
Gabe Resneck =)

Hi Gabe,
No worries at all. jQuery is dual-licensed and we can use the MIT version. We already use it in cas-curator.
There's probably some legal-discuss references to this on the ASF mail archives here's one I found
quickly in the ISIS project where they go with jQuery since it's ASF compatible:
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ISIS-97
Please proceed and make sure the NOTICE.txt file contains a reference to it as specified
by the author.
Cheers,
Chris

Hi Gabe,
I already replied to you on this earlier:
http://s.apache.org/6ol
Did you see it?
Anyways I saw LEGAL-126 [1] where Sam basically affirmed my
thoughts so I think we're fine.
Cheers,
Chris

Hey, guys. It’s been a while and I haven’t seen a response.
Does anyone have an idea of how I should handle this?
Thanks!
