I don't know if there would be any licensing restrictions; I'm afraid (???) the ZODB has some funny license for use only with Zope. I don't know if a Java Zope would still be Zope or what any licensing snafus would do.
I don't see what you mean about the license. ZODB is covered by the same Open license as the rest of Zope, and it only requires you to state that:
This product includes software developed by Digital Creations for use in the Z Object Publishing Environment (http://www.zope.org/).
Martijn, I could well be wrong. My vague recollection was that ZODB (or something else?) was licensed from someone outside DC for use only in Zope. I never really understood what the deal was, just that that chunk existed separately as a full-fledged product somewhere else. (Sound familiar to anyone?) In any case, I'd be very glad to be wrong on this!-) Then no legal snafus in duplicating code. = Joe =
