https://www.eclipse.org/legal/logo_guidelines.php> says this:
| Unless otherwise agreed to in advance in writing (which may be in
| email form) by Eclipse, the following restrictions apply:
| […]
| 3. Nobody other than Eclipse open source projects may develop or
| maintain software packages that use 'org.eclipse' in their
| namespace. An important use of the 'Eclipse' Trademark is the
| 'org.eclipse' string used on all namespaces for Eclipse open source
| projects. This naming convention is used to identify code that has
| been developed as part of an Eclipse open source project.
Doesn't this make software that uses classes in the org.eclipse.*
non-free because changes (for software maintenance or otherwise) are not
allowed?
Other namespaces are affected as well:
| Use of the 'jakarta', 'ee.jakarta', or 'org.jakarta' namespaces
is not
| permitted unless authorized in advance in writing by Eclipse.
(But I don't think this concerns anything shipped by Fedora.)
| Use of the 'org.locationtech' or 'org.polarsys' namespaces is not
| permitted unless authorized in advance in writing by Eclipse.
The org.locationtech restriction impacts the jts and spatial4j source
RPMs.
