It provides convenient functionality to search for tests matching certain criteria. > ClasspathSuite is GPL 2.0 licensed. > It will be used when compiling and running tests. Depending on technical questions that are not yet finalised, it will either be: > 1. Committed to the Qpid Subversion repo, or > 2. automatically downloaded from a Maven repository at build time by our build script. > I am not intending to distribute ClasspathSuite with Qpid releases. > I would like to know if my intended usage would be permitted. > Thanks, > Phil -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
