Hi, -1 binding until license and crypto issues are cleared up.
I notice the NOTICE mentions "Classpath Exception to the GPL” this is Category X and can’t be included in an release. See http://www.apache.org/legal/resolved.html#category-x This release also looks to contain crypto software - has this been followed? [4] I checked: - file contain incubating - signatures and hashes good - DISCLAIMER exists - LICENSE and NOTICE have (lots) issues - source files have headers - no unexpected binary files - unable to compile from source (but probably my set up - complains about json-c) License and notice issues: - LICENSE is missing many BSD, MIT and similar pieces of licensed software. [1] For example libpg, PuTTY, pgcrypto, pexpect, gtest + lot of others - NOTICE should not include MIT, BSD or normally Apache licenses. [1][2] - NOTICE also should not include anything that is not bundled in the actual source release.[3] (e.g. junit) - Some files listed in NOTICE don’t exist e.g. src/google/protobuf/stubs/atomicops_internals_aix.h. This makes it hard to review.
