good question, and probably one for legal-discuss.
It seems that most of the time deleting from svn is enough, although
that's not a definitive statement!

We have a situation with CloudStack where we have some jars that we do not
know our distribution rights. If it turns out that we do not have the right
to distribute them (Apache compatibility aside) what course of action
should we take?

This is something I recall from clarifications by Roy some while back -
made a lot of sense to me. I'm not aware of it being documented
anywhere, nor am I aware of it having been collectively agreed. If we
can work out where, I'd be happy to write it up.

Note, podlings are free to check in IP that is dubious from a *policy*
perspective (i.e. incompatible with Apache License), but should not, as
I see it, check in anything that is dubious from a *legal* one (i.e. it
is not and should not be public, or we don't have *any* rights to
distribute). While
Okay, thanks. :)

Podling frequently check in dubious IP as part of initial imports, and
then clean up HEAD later. I've never seen any evidence of a more
thorough extirpation.

Hi,
just wanted to add what I have learned during Stanbol incubation:
The ASF releases source code, only. The repo should contain only the
sources - and no binary code (JARs) at all. This is fundamental to the
idea of open source. Once you start hosting binaries the users can not
be sure what the
Here's my take:
As I see it, anything that goes into SVN we need to be sure we have the
_legal_ right to redistribute, regardless of any compatibility or
otherwise with the Apache License (e.g. GPL in our repo is not a
disaster).
It is a _policy_ decision of the ASF that anything that goes into A

If you've not released it and you've deleted it from HEAD of all
branches, I think you're fine.

Okay cool.
My root concern was that we have non-OS data in our repository. But if you
think that's an academic concern (i.e. we've not released it, so it doesn't
matter) then okay.

Presumably he is doing this because he knew of their existence before they
were removed (they were part of the original import from Citrix), and finds

To clarify, are you saying that people download jars directly from
version control history? Where do they find the references to their
existence there?

Hey,
It came up on the CloudStack list that we have non-OS (I don't know the
specific license, but I can find out if it's important) jars in the
repository, and some people (at least one) is downloading them from that
location for convenience.
Obviously, we're not going to ship them, and we can c
