Hi all, I’ve completed a full Apache RAT license audit pass on the Cloudberry (Incubating) codebase. The audit now passes cleanly with zero unknown licenses.
Apache RAT (Release Audit Tool) helps ensure that all source files in a project have appropriate license headers and that the codebase complies with ASF release policies. It’s a required step in preparing for an official Apache source release. A corresponding pull request has been opened here: *Add RAT license audit config and compliance metadata for ASF release* PR #1066 – https://github.com/apache/cloudberry/pull/1066 This PR introduces custom RAT matchers for all permissive licenses in use, handles legacy Greenplum-originated headers (EMC, VMware, Pivotal, Broadcom), and excludes the GPL-licensed pylint-0.21.0.tar.gz, which is pending removal. This completes a key requirement toward preparing for an ASF-compliant 2.0.0 release. *Next step:* If you have any outstanding development work, doc updates, or unresolved release blockers, please reply to the relevant dev threads so we can triage and close them out as needed. Thanks all, -=e -- Ed Espino Apache Cloudberry (Incubating) & MADlib
