York Shen commented on LEGAL-464:
---------------------------------

This issus is solved by Weex release 0.28-RC1 [1] officially, where we switched to BSD License JavasScript Interpretator at compling stage and gives user the freedom of choosing whichever JavasScript Interpretator they like at runtime.

> Hi, there
> I am a PPMC member of Apache Weex, and I'm suggested to move a discussion[1] about LGPL runtime to here.
> Let me briefly introduce the situation.
> Apache Weex is a mobile framework and targets three platforms/environment currently, e.g. Android, iOS, Normal Browser.
> In order to support Android Platform, Weex has to rely on Webkit at runtime, which is under LGPL and BSD License. The header files(.h file) that Weex includes from Webkit are all under BSD License and Weex.so has a dynamic link to Webkit.so at runtime. This is only for Android platform as iOS/Browser has a built-in Webkit environment already.
> I'd like to know whether this complies ASF's License policy [3], Thanks.
> BTW: Currently, Weex bundles Webkit.so and Weex.so toghether in its convenience binary for users' convenience, but Webkit.so could also be removed from convenience binary of Weex if needed.
