>
> I am a Qpid committer.  
> I have read the Previously Asked Questions at http://www.apache.org/legal/resolved.html but am still unsure about my intended usage of a Java library.
> I am considering using a library called ClasspathSuite (http://johanneslink.net/projects/cpsuite.jsp) in the Qpid automated test suite.  It provides convenient functionality to search for tests matching certain criteria.  
> ClasspathSuite is GPL 2.0 licensed.
> It will be used when compiling and running tests. Depending on technical questions that are not yet finalised, it will either be:
> 1. Committed to the Qpid Subversion repo, or
> 2. automatically downloaded from a Maven repository at build time by our build script.
> I am not intending to distribute ClasspathSuite with Qpid releases.  
> I would like to know if my intended usage would be permitted.
> Thanks,
> Phil
