Hi @porcelli ,

apache/incubator-kie-issues#1710 (comment)

drools-docs is not a part of the software, so the plan is to exclude it from the source distribution on subsequent releases, I thought. We removed it in 10.0.x branch manually, but we would be able to automate it with CI. Isn't it the goal of this GH issue?

I think we don't need to bring back the license statement.

We'd like to:

A) Automate drools-docs exclusion in setup-branch CI for release
B) If A is not implemented yet for the next release, we would manually remove it like we did for 10.0.x

WDYT?

Not approving, waiting for response to @tkobayas comment. That was my understanding, that it is not needed as drools-docs will be not part of the sources release.

[porcelli]

my perspective is that, planned to be removed during release is a temporary solution.. and we have to make sure that we won't overlook it... and to be honest.. the violation is in this repository and should be documented.

actually the real release LICENSE file even ignores this file... but we have it - as based on Apache policies - to have in every repository the LICENSE reflecting the codebase

[tkobayas]

I agree that we will eventually fix the license problem in drools-docs, so approved this PR.

Thank you for detailed explanation @porcelli
