Description

The Stanbol Enhancer Metaxa Engine internally uses Aperture (http://aperture.sourceforge.net/).

Aperture itself is distributed under a BSD like license however the following internal dependencies are not compatible:

• bibsonomy (LGPL)
• charopenhashset (LGPL)
• htmlparser (LGPL)
• jacob (LGPL)
• jaudiotagger (LGPL)
• jcifs (LGPL)
• uncompressinputstream (LGPL)

Note:

• DOM4J uses a modified BSD that is compatible (see https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LEGAL-43)
