Stephan, What you suggest should work (if you add another dependency to provide the needed classes). You have to be careful, however, because your consumers may expect to get the full json.org API. I would suggest that exclusions like this should only be used while your direct dependency still h

Understood. There's a discussion on legal-discuss you may want to join in on. The current ruling is that you would have until April 30 2017 to remove the dependency. John On Thu, Nov 24, 2016 at 9:19 AM Karl Wright wrote: > The Apache ManifoldCF project got an official Legal ruling on the jso
