We would like to package for fedora the Data Ware House component of oVirt, which contains parts generated using Talend Open Studio (see [1]).
This tool allows the user to define graphically some data flows and transformations and then generates Java code. The generated Java code states in the header that the license is LGPL and the tool itself claims to be open source using GPL v2 (see [2]).
Is it acceptable from the legal point of view to create a Fedora package using the generated Java code as the source?
Is _all_ code generated via Talend Open Studio automatically marked as being LGPL, or is this a decision that the use generating the Java code makes consciously?
I think that all the code is marked LGPL, there is no other alternative. Yaniv, can you confirm this?
This is correct.
Tom, did you get this response from Yaniv Dary? Any comments?

Anyone has an insight on where it is acceptable or not to package generated source?

We are continuing to wait for guidance from Red Hat Legal on this issue.
Indeed, I owe Tom a response on this. Thanks for your patience.
