Re: [ee4j-pmc] [External] : New project proposal Eclipse Documentation for Jakarta EE

Hi Ed,

the idea is to separate code from the documentation and out of the platform project. The examples are being moved to the

https://projects.eclipse.org/projects/ee4j.jakartaee-examples

So the licensing for the code as Arjan pointed out will be different from the documentation.

Hope this helps,

Tanja

Hi,

Note that the "focused" examples in the Jakarta EE Examples project are all BSD-0, which is the strongest license for example code. BSD-3 is a weaker license there and used for the "tutorial" examples, but it's still acceptable. 

Kind regards,
Arjan Tijms

Tanja,

I believe the example code files are currently licensed under EDL (BSD 3-clause), not the project license (EPL + GPLv2 w/ classpath exemption). They should remain under the more permissive EDL as that is intended to promote copy and reuse. At least, that was the original intent and I believe the source code in these examples is already marked that way.

My reason for bringing this up was to suggest that we would rather not remove the obligation to maintain the original copyright unless there is some persuasive argument that this would inhibit the project goals. In a previous comment, or perhaps in the proposal, there is a recommendation to re-license the example code under BSD-0 which does not obligate the consumer to preserve the original copyright. Users are free to add subsequent copyright marks, as they feel are needed.

I'll be happy with whatever the EMO decides on a restructuring ballot.

Thanks,

Ed

Hi All,

considering that examples will be in the Examples project, the licensing does not need to change and we can have it as it was

  • Eclipse Public License 2.0
  •  (Secondary) GNU General Public License, version 2 with the GNU Classpath Exception

Ed, I'll be happy to add you as a committer as well.

Ivar has responded to restructuring of the project already. EMO will look into that.

Thanks,

Tanja

I would recommend we ballot the scope change just to make it clear this material is leaving the context of the specification project. I believe, since the scope statements are rather vague across the board, it would be better to formally ballot this change.

I would prefer that license not change, I believe it is EDL for everything (BSD 3-clause).

I submitted a couple of comments:

Oracle would prefer we stick with existing license (EDL I believe).

I am okay with that.  


I believe the Platform project, which currently holds this content, will need a restructuring ballot to change the scope and formalize that this material is removed from the scope of the Platform Spec project.


Yes, a restructuring review by the EMO. No ballots are involved. 
Since the current scope statement doesn't say anything about the tutorial, first cup, or examples, this should just be a formality to tick some checkbox somewhere.
