Hi all,
I am getting very (very!) close to having netcdf-java in debian. One
remaining issue is with the following file:
cdm/src/main/java/net/jcip/annotations/GuardedBy.java
This file is distributed with a Creative Commons Attribution License
version 2.5 license. However this license is not accepted in debian
(main) because it is not compatible with DFSG [1]. It has been
discussed in greater details here [2]. For more information on the
status of CC-BY(-SA) 2.5 and previous one can see [3] or [4].

Now there are two ways to go:
1. remove this file and possibly replace with something else ?
2. ask the copyright holder to relicensed his/her work under a
CC-BY(-SA) 3.0 license.
What is the position of the netcdf-java team on this issue ?
Thanks in advance for your time,
