Yusuke,

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.

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.

I have consulted RH legal dept. only to get no meaningful response.
I guess Edson is the one who commit most of these files.
The how and why they need to be uncommitted is attached to the Jira issue.

Thanks,
Yusuke

Hi Yusuke, good question. I'm not sure where is the right place, but you are only asking to rollback your changes right?
who commit all your contributions to the jboss repo?
I also saw that you mention: "For several reasons, I decided to withdraw those contributions introduced from my spare time. "
can you mention those reasons? so we, as community can learn why you want to remove your contributions. I'm just curious.
Greetings.
