[Bug 119350] New: CoinMP (and any other EPL modules) should be in NOTICE file of binaries

https://issues.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=119350

          Priority: P3
            Bug ID: 119350
          Assignee: ooo-issues@incubator.apache.org
           Summary: CoinMP (and any other EPL modules) should be in NOTICE
                    file of binaries
          Severity: normal
        Issue Type: DEFECT
    Classification: Application
                OS: All
          Reporter: robweir@apache.org
          Hardware: PC
            Status: CONFIRMED
           Version: OOo 3.4 Beta
         Component: code
           Product: installation
             Flags: 3.4.1_release_blocker?

Section 3 of the EPL 1.0 says that when we distribute EPL code in object form
our distribution must state that the "...source code for the Program is
available from such Contributor, and informs licensees how to obtain it in a
reasonable manner on or through a medium customarily used for software
exchange."

See:  http://www.eclipse.org/legal/epl-v10.html

In other words we need a link back to the CoinMP website in our NOTICE file.

I think this should be addressed in the 3.4.1 release.  We should also see if
there are any other EPL modules that we need to treat similarly.

--- Comment #2 from Rob Weir <ro...@apache.org> ---
Note also that CoinMP is just a thin wrapper around Clp and Cbc, which
themselves are built using CoinUtils, Cgl, and Osi. These are all separately
licensed and managed projects with separate SVN repositories.  So we should
list them individually.  That is the general idea of recursively listing 3rd
party dependencies so our downstream consumers have the comprehensive list.

According to Apache policies we must carry links to the source code for all
category B licensed code. (The previous NOTICE file had them).
This issue is a release blocker.
