When you unzip, e.g., xwiki-enterprise-jetty-hsqldb-4.1.2.zip, it is in the webapps\xwiki\WEB-INF\lib folder
ok I'll try. I have 4.1.3 and it's not there for me.
It is in a 4.2-SNAPSHOT that I have locally. I agree that this is wrong and this jar should be removed. I traced to see where it comes from, and it's a dependency used by Infinispan, which means that Infinispan is in the wrong here. I created https://issues.jboss.org/browse/ISPN-2179 and I hope that it will be addressed soon.

Hi Mark,
I've just checked and I don't see this jar in our distribution.
Could you point me to where you've seen it?
Thanks -Vincent

I noticed that the rhq-pluginAnnotations-3.0.4.jar JAR is used in xwiki-enterprise-jetty-hsqldb-4.1.2. The source code for rhq-pluginAnnotations-3.0.4 [1] uses the GNU General Public License. However, the overall licence for xwiki-enterprise-jetty-hsqldb-4.1.2 is GNU LESSER GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE (see xwiki-enterprise-jetty-hsqldb-4.1.2\META-INF\LICENSE file that comes with the distro).
If the overall distro uses a GPL library, don't the copy left provisions of the GPL require shouldn't that require the whole distro fall under the GPL license?
