headers discussion

HI All,

One last thread tonight...

I wanted to give everyone a heads up to something I just noticed [1].  
It is a new policy for the license comments in src files.

The discussion is happening on the leagal-discuss [2] lists now as to  
what time frame this will be required in. I've read Sep 1st and that  
it might be postponed but either way I think we will have to conform  
before the 3.0 release is ready to go.

Anyone have any bandwidth to tackle this change?

TTFN,

That would be great if its already done (and it probably is from the  
sound of it). I just saw the chatter on the Geronimo list and figured  
I'd better get the word out here because I had not seen it here.

But I guess I was heads down on day job when the discussion was  
happening.

TTFN,

probably. The policy regarding the .exe licensing is unclear to me.

Yeah, I guess some research is due. I may look in the sources of the  
NSIS Maven plugin - they have some license-related parameters, but  
that may be related to building the *installer*, not the actual  
launcher. Confusing...

Rereading the policy I think it doesn't require to do anything with  
the .exe that is not an *installer* itself. I posted a note to legal- 
discuss to confirm that.

I have no idea how to do it.  (I'm assuming you mean right-clicking on
the Windows .exe and choosing Properties and then the Summary tab?)

I could probably find it with Google if you think we really need it.

Yes, AFAIK we should be all set on that.

Michael (or anybody else) - any insights how to do the same for the  
new NSIS CayenneModeler.exe launcher? The sample project that  
generates the launcher is available here:

http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator/cayenne/sandbox/nsis-test/

To try it, you will need a Windows machine with NSIS installed:

Yes, AFAIK we should be all set on that.

Michael (or anybody else) - any insights how to do the same for the  
new NSIS CayenneModeler.exe launcher? The sample project that  
generates the launcher is available here:

http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator/cayenne/sandbox/nsis-test/

Unless I'm missing a subtle difference, these are the changes we did a
few weeks back immediately after 1.2 was released.  I even used mogrify
to add a "See http://www.apache.org/licenses/LICENSE-2.0 for license
information." comment to the images.  There wasn't enough room to store
the entire license as a comment, so I improvised a bit (there was no
direction on how to handle this in the FAQ/etc).
