a full setup for ofbiz

[BJ Freeman]

I use http://izpack.org/documentation/
which is like windows installer and is java based.
the I am not sure if the
Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 3.0 Unported License.
is compatible with ASF.
however I believe like other binaries they can be worked around.
this would allow one link to setup.
let the person installing
create:
Developmental
Demo
Production system.
it would to check and download for missing pieces, like the JDK.
eventually the setup would run the ant install in appropriate for their use.
I see the scripts for this to be in the setup component where anyone can
put scripts particular to thier interests that izpack will pull from the
svn.

any thoughts?

At least I can say Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 3.0 Unported License is ASL2 compatible
http://www.apache.org/legal/resolved.html#cc-sa

But izpack is using 3rd libs not compatible
http://izpack.org/documentation/introduction.html#rd-party-code-used-in-izpack

Which is weird because of the section just above :/
http://izpack.org/documentation/introduction.html#welcome-to-izpack

I can't understand how a software is using ASL2 when it embeds LGPL and such. Maybe those libs are not mandatory...

most are look and feel we need to develop an ofbiz one that mimics
tomahawk. so they can be left out.

If we include libraries and their appropriate licenses are we not covered?
also if we did include it, would it not be something like website since
it is actually installing ofbiz?

Yes, I thought so, but did not really check. As I wrote below, if they are not madantory, it seems OK since the claim to use ASL2

If we don't need them, it's ok. Else there is something wrong, remember the Selenium issue, we never got an answer...

Mmm, it's simple: we can put incompatible licences in our svn repo. Else you are free to do what you want. One possible way is to
use Ivy (in ant) like Erwan is doing...
