[jira] Resolved: (MIME4J-71) Manage credits for Base64OutputStream inclusion

["Stefano Bagnara (JIRA)" <se...@james.apache.org>]

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MIME4J-71?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Stefano Bagnara resolved MIME4J-71.
-----------------------------------

    Resolution: Fixed
      Assignee: Stefano Bagnara

I removed the problematic code and reverted the NOTICE to not say anything.
Now we use a Base64OutputStream derived from original "3rd-party-credits-less" ASF code (commons-codec).

I would have used commons-codec as a dependency and maven-shade-plugin to shade that code in our release automatically (so to not fork the code) but I already changed too much in order to make it fit mime4j behaviours.

> I want to add the fact that I'm investigating about the IPR for the Base64OutputStream I introduced in the codebase some weeks ago.

> The fact is that the package I used to get the Base64OutputStream has a NOTICE including:
> -------------
> Portions of this software were originally based on the following:
> - software copyright (c) 2000-2006, Oracle Corp, <http://www.oracle.com/>. and are licensed to the Apache Software Foundation under the "Software Grant and Corporate Contribution License Agreement"
> -------------
> I didn't recognized this when I took the code at first, my bad! 
> Credits have to be added to the main NOTICE.txt (used in main distributions) and a solution have to be found for the NOTICE included in jars (currently automatically added by maven with apache-jar-resource-bundle:1.4  that does not support this scenario).
