Re: [epp-dev] how to include the project into distribution?
|
Hi Igor,
Subversion support (yes, I am using SVN myself all the time) is really
important and there is a high user demand for such a repository. Therefore I
really would like to find a solution here. But as you can imagine, the same
problem applies to EPP packages: We can only distribute EPL compliant
software from eclipse.org.
So the bad news is here: No, it's not possible to include 3rd party software
in the packages which is not EPL compliant.
Is it the SVNKit library that causes the problems? Or do you depend on other
software pieces? I have to admit that I was using Subclipse in the last
months and wasn't able to follow all the discussions around Subversive. Maybe
you can describe your license issues in detail - I don't know... maybe we can
find another solution.
[Newsgroup: I am not using the newsgroup very often, but with my webbrowser
the URL
http://www.eclipse.org/newsportal/thread.php?group=eclipse.technology.packaging
does work -- at the project start there was a bit of confusion with another
newsgroup name eclipse.technology.epp, but I thought this was solved...
anyway, I'll check it again.]
Regards
Markus
