I've found JCR 1.0 API (javax.jcr package) licence here : http://www.day.com/specs/jcr/1.0/license.html It's exactly the same one as JCR 2.0... From a quick overview, it seems clearly *non-free* as it : - fails DFSG §3 (derivative work) License for the Distribution [...] No license is granted hereunder for any other purpose (including, for example, modifying the Specification[...] - fails DFSG §1 (free redistribution) License for the Distribution [...] No license is granted hereunder for any other purpose (including, for example, [...] distributing the Specification to third parties). - maybe, also, fails with DFSG §9 Must not place restrictions on other software that is distributed along with the licensed software Pass-through Conditions. [...] You may neither: (a) [...]; nor (b) authorize your licensees to make any claims concerning their implementation's compliance with the Specification. [not sure it fails DFSG §9, but seems a bit weird to me] From what I've found, Apache Software Foundation (Legal Affairs) as already marked this issue as "solved" [1] [2]. Really sad....
