Library in compiled code that could force GPL 4 Years, 3 Months ago Karma: 0  
It appears that in our code is reference to a library that is GPL (Ostermiller Utilities), and if it remains in our compiled code, it could threaten the code being licensed as GPL.

QUOTE:
Just roaming the svn distribution, noticed the ostermiller
utilities jar. That jar is licensed GPL. If you are
compiling against it, you can't use the Apache license; my
understanding of the GPL suggests that the entire Pachyderm
distribution must be GPL. I did not roam the codebase to
see what from that jar is used. Perhaps a replacement can be
hacked to remove the need for that jar?

I've pulled reference to this library as well as the library itself from the 2.1 code base, but we may need to retroactively pull all the references from previous packages or create a new 2.0 package and pull down all the old packages.
