Sean Busbey commented on NIFI-2991:
-----------------------------------

:good_news: this blurb in the AWS module is just out of date; the AWS Java SDK removed JSON.org code in release 1.11 and we use 1.11.8

> CAN APACHE PRODUCTS INCLUDE WORKS LICENSED UNDER THE JSON LICENSE?
> No. As of 2016-11-03 this has been moved to the 'Category X' license list. Prior to this, use of the JSON Java library was allowed. See Debian's page for a list of alternatives.

> I don't know how many of our versions include stuff under this license, it's definitely currently in master.
