NOTICE required for JcrUtils from Jackrabbit 2.4.0?
Hi,
In reviewing an RC for Apache Commons VFS 2.1
https://lists.apache.org/thread.html/Zjouqd6cpmohrj3
we wondered about a file
https://github.com/apache/commons-vfs/blob/trunk/core/src/test/java/org/apache/commons/vfs2/provider/webdav/test/JcrUtils.java
which we have adapted from Jackrabbit 2.4.0.
Jackrabbit has a NOTICE which includes
> Based on source code originally developed by
> Day Software (http://www.day.com/).
Looking at the git history
https://github.com/apache/jackrabbit/commits/trunk/jackrabbit-jcr-commons/src/main/java/org/apache/jackrabbit/commons/JcrUtils.java
I think this file was earliest added in JackRabbit in 2009 by Jukka Zitting:
https://github.com/apache/jackrabbit/commit/0882a5cc1ed4ce1cf9d3c6b3a592f97c5772ce25
(first released in 1.6.0 and 2.0-alpha1 )
Is this correct, or was this file based on earlier code?
As Jackrabbit graduated from the Incubator in 2006, am I right to
assume then that JcrUtils.java is NOT covered by the earlier "Day
Software" Software Grant and corresponding NOTICE attribution?
That is, is Apache Commons free to not propagate your NOTICE for using JcrUtils?

Hi,
Your assumption is correct.
The NOTICE entry refers to code from the original Day Software grant that
accompanied Jackrabbit's entry to the Incubator (
http://wiki.apache.org/incubator/JcrProposal).
The JcrUtils class was contributed under normal CLA and thus doesn't need
extra NOTICE entries.
Best,
Jukka Zitting

It is just a general NOTICE:
https://github.com/apache/jackrabbit/blob/trunk/NOTICE.txt

Which doesn't say if the "Day Software" bit applies to JcrUtils or not.
For VFS 2.1 we have assumed it does NOT apply, due to the SVN history
dating it 3 years after import of the Day Software code, but that is
an interpretation I would leave open for Jackrabbit PMC to correct us
in case we are wrong. The ASF license allow us to make that kind of
interpretation, as we have used the SVN history for figuring out
"excluding those notices that do not pertain to any part of the
Derivative Works".

Does Jackrabbit contain a NOTICE for JcrUtils? If not, I don't think we
need one.

For Commons VFS 2.1 we have assumed the above interpretation of the
Jackrabbit NOTICE and SVN history, and NOT included a Day Software
attribution:
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/VFS-611
We would appreciate your feedback in case we are wrong :-)
