Re: [cp-patches] Re: Help needed to persuade apaches about the Classpath license: Maven does not deal with CORBA, just uses OpenEJB.

[Meskauskas Audrius]

Building Geronimo and analyzing its source code revealed that this large 
application does not use CORBA directly at all. All CORBA uses, 
including references to the proprietary com.sun.corba package, come from 
the OpenEJB project (http://openejb.codehaus.org). It seems to be a 
completely independent project. If I am not mistaken, to replace Sun 
CORBA completely by Trifork donation, Geronimo should keep and maintain 
they own version of OpenEJB.

I will try to talk with OpenEJB, but from the downloaded source code I 
see that OpenEJB needs org.omg.PortableInterceptor, the last missing 
CORBA package. Completing the interceptor is the first thing I should do.
