Yusuke,<br>
<p style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">At the time of your
contributions to Drools and other projects you were a Red Hat
employee. The Red Hat legal department has determined that it has
the
right to copy, modify and distribute your contributions under the
Apache License version 2.0 and considers this matter closed. If
you
have any further need to discuss this please do so with Red Hat
legal, - you have their contact details.<br>
<br>
Even if you were not
a Red Hat employee, which you were at the time, you cannot undo an
OSS code contribution, that is not how OSS licensing works. At the
time the code was contributed in good faith under the Apache
license,
you cannot then decide at a later date to change your mind. The
OSS
licenses, be it ASL or LGPL or GPL, are designed specifically to
provide certainty in that area. Without this level of certainty
end
user OSS adoption would be a minefield as every time developers
fall
out, which happens often, one could demand all their code be
removed
and this would impact everyone who has invested time installing
that
software in production systems.<br>

I also saw that you mention: "For several reasons, I

can you mention those reasons? so we, as community can
learn why you want to remove your contributions. I'm just
curious.<br>
