Hi.
The IcedTea fsg.sh (Free Software Guidelines) script that scrubs any
dubious contents from the files distributed through OpenJDK has the
following:
# has w3c copyright. license to be checked / needs checking after decoding
rm -f \
openjdk/jdk/test/javax/xml/crypto/dsig/data/xml-stylesheet \
openjdk/jdk/test/javax/xml/crypto/dsig/data/xml-stylesheet.b64
These files are local copies of the following files:
http://www.w3.org/TR/xml-stylesheet
http://www.w3.org/Signature/2002/04/xml-stylesheet.b64
(The second is a base64 encoded version of the first.)
These files are used in the following tests:
openjdk/jdk/test/javax/xml/crypto/dsig/GenerationTests.java
openjdk/jdk/test/javax/xml/crypto/dsig/ValidationTests.java
(Which currently obviously fail without those files in the data dir)
These tests references the merlin-xmldsig-twenty-three Baltimore test
vectors (also distributed by the w3c):
http://www.w3.org/Signature/2001/04/05-xmldsig-interop.html
The xml-stylesheet file references:
http://www.w3.org/Consortium/Legal/ipr-notice.html#Copyright and
http://www.w3.org/Consortium/Legal/copyright-software.html
Which seem to imply we may freely distribute them.
So I would like to remove these "cleanups" from fsg.sh.
Opinions?
Cheers,
Mark
