Clean up library licensing and attribution #631

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
What steps will reproduce the problem?

The replicator relies on a large number of open source libraries as well as 
some commercial ones.  These need to have proper attribution and we must ensure 
that licensing terms are obeyed. 

What is the expected output?

1.) All used libraries should be properly declared with correct licenses.
2.) All unused libraries should be removed. 
3.) Commercial libraries like Vertica should be removed from distributions.  
(They may be necessary for builds, hence can be present in source but not 
distributed.)
4.) Duplicate libraries should be reduced to a single copy. 
5.) Tungsten code must obey conditions of use of all licenses on which it 
depends.  For example, many licenses have header requirements. 

What do you see instead?

All of these conditions are violated--libraries are declared but not used, 
headers are not consistent, etc. 

What is the possible cause?

Bad housekeeping.  

What is the proposed solution?

Spring cleaning! 

Additional information

This will need careful review of all licenses.

We'll start this when 1.5.4 and 2.0.1 are out.
