Below is the email exchange with them: Date: Thu, 20 Jan 2011 10:40:31 -0430 From: Miguel Landaeta To: Josh Marinacci Cc: tony mancill Message-ID: Subject: xhtmlrenderer Debian package Hi Joshua, I'm just emailing you to let you know about a Debian package that I'm preparing for xhtmlrenderer and to ask you some questions about the licensing and copyright of some files included in the source tarball released by your project. In the LICENSE file is stated the following: "All source code to Flying Saucer itself is licensed under the GNU Lesser General Public License (LGPL); you can redistribute it and/or modify it under the terms of the GNU Lesser General Public License as published by the Free Software Foundation, either version 2.1 of the License, or (at your option) any later version." However there are some files without a header and they don't have an author or copyright statement available: ./src/java/org/xhtmlrenderer/tool/Boxer.java ./src/java/org/xhtmlrenderer/simple/PDFRenderer.java ./src/java/org/xhtmlrenderer/pdf/DefaultPDFCreationListener.java ./src/java/org/xhtmlrenderer/simple/XHTMLPrintable.java ./src/java/org/xhtmlrenderer/util/PermutationGenerator.java ./src/java/org/xhtmlrenderer/util/GenerateBigFile.java several files under ./src/java/org/xhtmlrenderer/test/* several files under ./src/java/org/xhtmlrenderer/pdf/* (There are probably more, the check could be more exhaustive if necessary). Are those files also licensed under LGPL-2.1 license? If not, how are licensed those files?

A Debian package sounds great. I'm actually not the project = leader anymore (not for a few years now). I've CC'ed Patrick who can = give you the info you need. The site is down due to the Java.net = transition, though I believe most of the site is actually stored other = places now. good luck!

If any are missing the license header, this is most likely an oversight on our part which no one has brought to our attention. The only exception(s) might be the documentation and perhaps some of the demo code, but I would need to double-check that. The library itself is LGPL. I believe we are comfortable that our CVS (and now GitHub) repository shows the origin of the files in our source tree. We can correct any licensing issues in the source tree.
