[xwiki-devs] ldap-UNKNOWN.jar
Hi all, Please, why Novell LDAP classes for Java ldap.jar has been renamed as ldap-UNKNONW.jar in XWiki distributions? May I propose to rename it to include the release date and the "origin"? For the updated ldap.jar available at http://developer.novell.com/wiki/index.php/Jldap it could be ldap-novell-20071012.jar. I've noted that there is another jar with this syntax, googleapi-UNKNOWN-xwiki.jar. And that other includes what it also seems a date as proposed for ldap.jar, swizzle-confluence-1.1-20070908-xwiki.jar. Thanks! -- Ricardo Rodríguez Your XEN ICT Team

Simply because when I renamed all jars to follow the maven naming conventions I wasn't able to find the version we're using of that JAR.

Yes definitely. Do you think you could create a jira issue for updating the JAR and attach that jar to the issue (provided the license is still ok to be redistributed in a LGPL software)?

Same as above. Thanks -Vincent

I think this information is still lacking in the jar. I've been following the development of Novell ldap classes long time ago and I don't remember ever having had information about the release, just the delivery date.

Of course. I'll do that as soon as I understand what this fancy-very-small-font-size sentence appearing in the Novell LDAP Classes for Java page means! "Your use of these files is subject to the Novell Developer License Agreement <http://developer.novell.com/wiki/index.php/Novell_Developer_License_Agreement> unless different license terms accompany the file itself, in which case those terms govern."

Let me put this googleapi item in second position! Looking to forward to contributing to this great XWiki thing, Ricardo -- Ricardo Rodríguez Your XEN ICT Team

Please, accept my apologies; I've received some error when I created the issue, hit the created bottom several times and it seems that several issues (I do hope each new issue overwrite the prior one) have been created. Thanks. -- Ricardo Rodríguez Your XEN ICT Team
