working on a Java implementation of
portions of LLVM and have a question about licensing. The project
won't contain any LLVM source code although I can foresee using JNI
stubs that link against LLVM libraries. It does however in many cases
follow LLVM APIs. From my understanding of the
<font color="#000000"><span style="font-style: normal;"><span
style="font-weight: normal;">University
of Illinois/NCSA license this means:</span></span></font><font
color="#000000"><span style="font-style: normal;"><span
style="font-weight: normal;"><br>
<br>
1. I need to include the copyright notice in the documentation</span></span></font><font
color="#000000"><span style="font-style: normal;"><span
style="font-weight: normal;"><br>
2. I'm can release the project under any license I want provided its
compatible with inclusion of the LLVM copyright</span></span></font><br>
<br>
Please let me know if I'm understanding
this correctly, I should provide more info and/or there are any
considerations I've missed. If anyone is interested in the project
please don't hesitate to contact me. I would be especially grateful
to anyone with experience releasing open source software that wouldn't
mind receiving an
email here and there. Thanks.<br>
