[Bug 64015] Replace usage of Java BitSet with a memory-optimized/sparse implementation

https://bz.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=64015

--- Comment #20 from Saurabh <sa...@siemens.com> ---
Hello Team,

We are trying to upgrade Apache POI 4.1.12.

As per https://github.com/brettwooldridge/SparseBitSet/blob/master/LICENSE, We
can see SparseBitSet 1.2 is license under Apache License 2.0.

However when we see src/main/java/com/zaxxer/sparsebits/SparseBitSet.java, it
has following comment -

/*- This software is the work of Paladin Software International, Incorporated,
 *  based upon previous work done for and by Sun Microsystems, Inc. */

Our legal is asking what this comments means and asking for a clarification if
it is indeed licensed under Apache License 2.0.

We are trying to reach out to owner Mr. Brett Wooldridge but no success yet.

In case do you know about the licensing impact, please guide us.

Thanks
Saurabh K.
