Re: About jprofile license for opensource project

I think it will be good to have free jprofile license for open source.

It sounds more like a legal question, are we able to do it?

And a link on Project Thanks Pages should be necessary to respect Jprofile team.

Any ASF project has a private svn to store private information, such
as password, private keys, and etc.
I think we can store it there, and send the notice to committers and
document on the new committer guide.
If they are willing to use it, they are ask on the PMC member list.

Hi, everyone.

It seems that we have no other opinions on the license of Jprofile.

I will start the two things above.

In addition, after communicating with Jprofile, they will provide a license
for all Committer to use.

Regarding the maintenance of this license, I think it should not appear in
any public place, it should be maintained by PMCs, and any Committer that
needs to use it needs to apply on the dev list. This is a security measure
used to ensure that this license is not overused.

What do you think?

Re: About jprofile license for opensource project

Hi,

I took a look at this guide. It seems that we need to do a few things:

1. Agree with the PMCs to confirm that we are using Jprofile and agree to
add the official link to Jprofile.
2. Add a thanks page to the current official website[1]. I personally think
that we should also thank Intellij Idea for supporting the project.

By the way, after we have done the above, how do we go through the last
step mentioned in the guide?

links to the formal Sponsorship and Donations/Contributing web pages at the
ASF level.

Apache Brand Management has a specific page for how projects should
include these kinds of corporate links, which should be easy to follow:

This has come up before and has never been a problem. YourKit has provided a free open source license - https://www.yourkit.com/purchase/ <https://www.yourkit.com/purchase/> - with the same request. For quite a while I used one of those for Log4j although I pay for a license now.
