layout-1.0.4.jar under LGPL and why is it there

Hi Suresh,

I am vetting all the jar files an i see that layout-1.0.4.jar is under
LGPL which is NOT  Apache compatible. I see no reason why that jar
should be there, the source compiled without the layout-1.0.4.jar so i
am guessing it was put there by a mistake.

I ve created a blocker for release and will fix this.

Re: layout-1.0.4.jar under LGPL and why is it there

Posted by Suresh Marru <sm...@cs.indiana.edu>.
Hi Chathura,

Glad you found this. It would have been a real blunder to let this jar in. Since this is a legacy dependency, the removal is the right way, if we really need it, then we should look for compatible license alternatives. I am going through all the threads and march on the release now.

Re: layout-1.0.4.jar under LGPL and why is it there

Posted by Saminda Wijeratne <sa...@gmail.com>.
It seems the layout-1.0.4.jar is no longer required. I removed it as a
dependency from the branch+trunk build.

Re: layout-1.0.4.jar under LGPL and why is it there

Posted by Chathura Herath <ch...@cs.indiana.edu>.
Suresh,

Another issue to resolve is jsr173 jar which is under BEA liscense

Previous discussions suggest that BEA jsr is NOT  Apache compatible [1]

Geronimo uses jst173 api jars from woodsotx which is Apache
compatible. And i suggest we move to that. IMO this is also a blocker
and we will fix this.

I ve created AIRAVATA-257 for this.
