> Hi
> Your project is licensed under Apache License Version 2,
> but your code pulls in code from json.org under Douglas Crockford’s bad licence [1] , and is non-free [2].
> Such usage restriction makes the license incompatible with The Open Source Definition and
> The Free Software Definition. Because Tika binary distribution includes this software,
> it effectively becomes proprietary software itself.
> You may also comment that the json.org license is valid for You but for many Linux distributions it is not acceptable.
> I hope to continue to maintain Tika for Fedora, without having to run into these problems.
> Please try to replace it with one of the many free alternatives.
> Regards
