🐰 Six licenses tucked in a folder so neat,
With Apache, and BSD, and EPL sweet,
A NOTICE to tell of dependencies dear,
Compliance complete, the path is now clear! ✨

Title check ❓ Inconclusive The PR title 'license folder' is vague and overly generic; it doesn't clearly convey what licenses were added or why, lacking specificity about the meaningful changes in the changeset. Consider a more descriptive title like 'Add license files (Apache, BSD, EPL, MIT, CDDL, NOTICE)' to clearly indicate the main change and what licenses are included.

🔇 Additional comments (5)
licenses/MIT.txt (1)

3-5: Verify the copyright date accuracy, particularly the 2025 date.

The MIT.txt file lists QOS.ch with a copyright extending to 2025. Please verify this date is intentional and accurate, as future-dated copyrights are unusual.

licenses/EPL-2.0.txt (1)

1-80: LGTM!

This is the standard Eclipse Public License v2.0 text. License texts are legal documents and should be kept verbatim to maintain legal validity. The static analysis style suggestions should be ignored as they apply to prose writing, not legal license texts.

licenses/NOTICE (1)

1-140: Well-structured NOTICE file with comprehensive third-party attributions.

The format is consistent and properly attributes all third-party components with copyright notices and license references. The structure grouping related components (e.g., Apache projects, Spring ecosystem) aids readability.

licenses/EPL-1.0.txt‎ (1)

1-73: LGTM!

This is the standard Eclipse Public License v1.0 text. The license is properly formatted and complete.

licenses/Apache-2.0.txt (1)

1-201: LGTM!

This is the standard Apache License, Version 2.0 text with the appendix explaining how to apply the license. The content matches the official Apache Software Foundation license text.

⚠️ Potential issue | 🔴 Critical

Remove the special/invisible character at the end of the filename.

The filename licenses/BSD-2-Clause.txt‎ contains a trailing special character (zero-width space or similar) that is not visible but could cause issues with file references, tooling, CI/CD, and cross-platform compatibility. Rename to licenses/BSD-2-Clause.txt (plain ASCII, no trailing special characters).

⚠️ Potential issue | 🟠 Major

Fix the filename typo: "DEVLOPMENT" → "DEVELOPMENT".

The filename COMMON-DEVLOPMENT-AND-DISTRIBUTION-1.1.txt contains a spelling error. It should be COMMON-DEVELOPMENT-AND-DISTRIBUTION-1.1.txt to match the official license name and standard conventions. This typo can cause issues with compliance tooling, documentation references, and license matching.

Add missing license text files for compliance.

The NOTICE file references licenses that lack corresponding text files in the licenses/ folder:

  1. Line 34 (H2): "Mozilla Public License 2.0" – add MPL-2.0.txt
