[JXPath] On contributing XOM-support
Dear Commons Developpers,
I tried to implement custom Pointers and Iterators
of the object model XOM for the Commons JXPath.
So JXPath supports access to XOM nodes by using my work.
I would like to contribute my code to the JXPath project.
You can see the details at
http://www.k2.dion.ne.jp/~hirsh/xpath/jxpathOverXOM-en.html
Thanking you in advance,

Dear Dmitri,
Thank you very much for your help.

I hope that my code is acceptable as an integral part of JXPath.
If so, what specific changes I need to make to the code?
(license comments, etc.)
Also we need to change the original JXPath code.
For example, org.apache.commons.jxpath.ri.model.XMLModelTestCase
Because XOM's namespace URI is a little more strict.
For details, see
http://www.xom.nu/tutorial.xhtml#d0e334

I believe, too.
Once again, thank you.

Dear Torsten,
Thank you very much for your advice.
I will try to negotiate with them for a different licence.
Thanks,

Shirasu,
what you could do is to ask the XOM guys for
either dual licensing or considering using
the Apache license. ...maybe worth a shot.
Thanks for you contribution!
The legal stuff is alway a pain.
cheers

Torsten,
Thank you for the clarification.
Shirasu,
I think we will have to wait 'till the issues around the licenses are resolved. I am very sorry about that.
For now I could put a link on the JXPath home page pointing to your site.
Sorry,
- Dmitri

AFAIK currently even just a simple import statement to any
GPL or even LGPL code is being considered not acceptable.
see http://wiki.apache.org/jakarta/Using_20LGPL_27d_20code
...unfortunately!
*sigh*

Torsten,
Just to clarify the issue: we are not talking about including XOM with JXPath, we only need it to build against. We would not actually commit any non-Apache licensed code to the Apache repository. Is that equally bad?
Thanks,

Great stuff!

If it's LGPL it's not ok as for the current policy :(
...unfortunately. On legal-discuss there is a discussion
whether an additional clause to the LGPL will make it
acceptable for the ASF. (like Hybernate did)
Sorry for the bad news...

Dear Shirasu,
Congratulations on this wonderful piece of work and thank you very much for
your decision to contribute it to Apache!
I will be happy to assist you with making this contribution happen.
But first we need to resolve a couple of issues:
1. Will this be a separate module under commons or an integral part of
JXPath?
I recommend that we make it an integral part of JXPath
2. Do we have any licensing issues with XOM?
I believe we can use it, it is covered by LGPL.
Does anybody know of a reason we would not be able to use XOM in our build?
Once again, thank you.
- Dmitri
