But it depends on what is really going on in jogl. If jogl could be easily patched to not need gluegen's source code but we end up doing the gluegen source code then it's a very poor solution. OTOH, if jogl really needs some private "header" from the gluegen source then it is a resonable solution (it becomes equivalent to tracking a static library and is an easier exception to grant than an exception for bundled libraries.) So... more informaiton is needed. -Toshio
