RE: [dsdp-pmc] Code contribution

Title: Code contribution
It don't make much sense to me either.
 
The problem is that the code is owned by an other unit 
in Nokia which had quite negative feeling about the OSS and openess in general. 
They want to be careful.
This is most likely gradually changing, but it is the fact 
that we didn't get the source code when we tried.
 
I quess you are also pointing out that we should be able to 
do it, but in practise it just seems to take some time.
 
I am quite sure that we checked earlier from Janet 
that binaries can be delived from Eclipse, but you are saying that this is not 
the case?
 
Or do you mean that even if we delivery binary, legal 
check should be done for source code?
 
mho
  
  
  That's the part that makes no sense to me. The 
  license that you quoted for the binaries is a very open and flexible BSD license. If 
  they've really put the code under that license, the source should be easily 
  available. 
   
  Access to the source code is a prerequisite to 
  starting the legal review.
