Description Fernando Nasser 2005-10-13 16:27:25 UTC 
I've looked at the MANIFEST.MF and it innitially scared me.  
Mind you that I found entries like:

Name: javax/xml/validation/
Comment: xml-commons for http://xml.apache.org/ subproject's use
Specification-Title: JSR 206 Java API for XML Processing 1.3
Specification-Version: 1.3
Specification-Vendor: Sun Microsystems Inc.
Implementation-Title: javax.xml.transform
Implementation-Version: @impl.version@
Implementation-Vendor: Sun Microsystems Inc.
Implementation-URL: http://java.sun.com/xml/jaxp.html


This seemed to imply that the API calsses were from Sun (so they would be SBL).
 I found out that this is not true, the source files are there with APL on their
headers.

Shouldn't the implementation part say ASF?  Like:

Name: javax/xml/validation/
Comment: xml-commons for http://xml.apache.org/ subproject's use
Specification-Title: JSR 206 Java API for XML Processing 1.3
Specification-Version: 1.3
Specification-Vendor: Sun Microsystems Inc.
Specification-URL: http://java.sun.com/xml/jaxp.html
Implementation-Title: javax.xml.transform
Implementation-Version: @impl.version@
Implementation-Vendor: Apache Software Foundation
Implementation-URL: http://xml.apache.org/commons/

Or something like that?

Agreed. Fixed in SVN.
