New subject: [xwiki-dev] Bad license headers for the Lucene plugin

22 Jan 2007

Hi,

I've noticed that the java files for the Lucene plugin have a header  
like this:

/*

I don't think we should include code that is 1/ copyrighted to  
someone else and 2/ GPL

We should ask Jens Kramer to donate the code to the XWiki project  
under the XWiki copyright and under a LGPL license.

Who can do this?

Thanks
-Vincent
