Обсуждение: Re: Licensing issues including another projects source code into the jdbc driver

Umm ok,

This is dissappointing; kind of defeats the purpose of being able to
leverage open source code for the good of all open source projects. It
isn't that big a deal, we can write our own logging package.

It would require everyone that ships a product based on the JDBC driver
to
mention this acknowledgement in advertisements, which is annoying and
impractical.  More generally, it would introduce a divergence in
licensing
in PostgreSQL, which should be avoided.
