Hi Adam.
Hi, thanks for helping. The answer is very clear to me, and I could provide some feedback now. I understand it is very hard to resolve license issues, in SkyWalking, we took almost 1 month to release our first version. ------------------ Sheng Wu Apache SkyWalking ------------------ Original ------------------ From: "Adam Feng"<[email protected]>; Date: Wed, Apr 25, 2018 10:40 AM To: "general"<[email protected]>;"general"<[email protected]>; Subject: Re: Is an incubating project allowed to release if itdidn'tfollowApache way. Hi, I'm Adam, who is a committer of Weex??maybe I can clarify the confusion of Weex's release process. Actually, Weex released its first version in Apache on 2017-06-08, after that, we faced some license problems. Facebook's BSD+Patents license was added to Category X[1] and Weex had some dependencies which were using that license, including our layout engine Yoga[2] (though its newest version has changed to MIT). Some committers found the issue[3] and started working on a new layout engine, it was a massive work and took more time than we expected, fortunately it was nearly done. Weex will release next version in May. During that time, the community building and development should be continued, so we added some tags and some "feature notes" to the community, we will make sure they are clearly labeled as non-Apache releases. Sorry to make you confused.
