Steve Loughran commented on HADOOP-15080:
-----------------------------------------
bq. if Hadoop itself can be developed, built and tested without json-lib being
on the machine, it's a very big stretch to argue that the ASF is "using" it by
any definition
I agree. It's like saying "we need gcc to build the native code on linux". We
do, we just don't redistribute it.
Interesting point about that explicit references though. Doing a grep for gcc
in our source, while we don't call it out as the required compiler, we
certainly have explicit support for it being used throughout the native libs.
