LGPL issue
Nicola,
Jesktop impl did not contain LGPL code. The ported apps to Jesktop API (which is BSD) are all
sorts of license.
Having said that, JAMES use a DNS jar that is LGPL, and have it in Apache CVS. Of course this is
the jar, not the source....
I think the official policy is to have a little dependance on copyleft as possible....
- Paul

Depends. If it could even vaguly be consider a library extension rather than
a user of library then it shouldn't be used but James is fine using dnsjava

The jar would only be used by the build to create documentation for the
Avalon website.
It would not be used by Avalon itself.
