| [udig-devel] More Eclipse related stuff |
|
Hi Everyone, I hope your week is going well. I have a few questions/topics I wanted to bring up. 1) Project name As per: http://wiki.eclipse.org/Development_Resources/HOWTO/Project_Naming_Policy "As a defensive measure, the Eclipse Foundation holds the trademark to the Project names on behalf of the Projects - this prevents companies from misusing or misrepresenting their products as being the Projects.) The EMO will initiate a trademark review prior to scheduling a Creation Review. Existing trademarks must be transferred to the Eclipse Foundation (please see the Trademark Transfer Agreement)" I hope this is OK? 2) Third party software As you expect, our IP team won't have a mandate to engage until the IWG is launched and the uDig project proposal submitted. Nevertheless, I wanted to take a look to understand a bit about the software distributed in uDig's packaging to educate myself better. Here's a quick method I used: http://pastebin.com/iBFgFnFb Aside from Eclipse stuff, I see: net.refractions.udig.* <= is this all code from the uDig project eu.udig.* <= Looks like this was contributed by HydroloGIS, correct? Apache: Ant, Batik, Lucene, Xerces, XML resolver & serializer, commons, jasper - all under Apache license v2 w3c: org.w3c.css.sac and org.w3c.dom events, smil, and svg (W3C software license) javax: servlet, xml, and servlet.jsp (Apache license v2) org.mortbay: jetty server and util (Apache license v2) org.tcat.citd.sim.udig: bookmarks com.ibm: icu (ICU4J license) com.lowagie: itext (Looks like MPL?) com.mapquest: mq (anyone know what license this is?) net.refractions.udig.catalog.geotools <= looks like geotools itself is not actually distributed with udig but instead assumed to be installed on the box, is this correct? Same with gdal? Thanks in advance for confirming these important details. 3) Contribution agreements Has uDig used any sort of contribution agreements? Best regards, Andrew |
