[jira] [Commented] (NETBEANS-309) IP provenance of icons in Apache NetBeans

["Matthias Bläsing (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NETBEANS-309?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=16339705#comment-16339705 ] 

Matthias Bläsing commented on NETBEANS-309:
-------------------------------------------

My perspective: several images were removed by oracle when the donation was prepared. I so assume they are donated as the java sources are. The only other icons I'm aware of were merged in:

[https://github.com/apache/incubator-netbeans/commit/d4c6d52]

The icons were distributed with netbeans 8.2 so I considered them GPLv2-CDDL dual licensed. So from a copyright perspective they are CDDL for apache netbeans. This would be ok from my understanding of category-b definition:

> Currently a Rat exclusion excludes all images from Apache Rat runs. All the images have been donated by Oracle. Needs to be clarified if/whether/how to determine whether they belong to Apache and if/whether/how anything needs to be stated about images in the NOTICE or LICENSE file or somewhere else.
