Description: OpenDial is a Java-based software toolkit to facilitate the development of robust and adaptive spoken dialog systems. The toolkit itself is domain-independent and can be easily applied to any particular dialog domain. Dialog understanding, management and generation are expressed in OpenDial through probabilistic rules encoded in a simple XML format.

In a nutshell, probabilistic rules are high-level templates for the construction  of directed graphical models (i.e. Bayesian and decision networks) and are intended to combine the benefits of logical and statistical approaches to dialog modelling in a single framework.

LICENSE NOTE: The code was recently changed from LGPLv2+ to MIT.  See the 4/2/2014 entry under "News" on https://code.google.com/p/opendial/.  Some of the files still contain an LGPL notice.  I pointed this out to the author via private email, and received this response:

Hi Jerry,

Thanks a lot for your work packaging my software!  And for informing me that some files still had the LGPL header, I didn’t notice that.  It’s now changed on the development trunk.

Pierre

Therefore, the spec file marks the license as MIT.

Bundled parts:
./src/opendial/utils/AudioUtils.java have header:
 * This file is part of jsresources.org

./src/opendial/inference/approximate/SamplingProcess.java
 * @author  Pierre Lison (plison.no)

Thanks, I will check into this one.

> ./src/opendial/inference/approximate/SamplingProcess.java
>  * @author  Pierre Lison (plison.no)

Pierre Lison is the author of opendial.

jsresources.org has a collection of sample code for using the Java Sound API.  It is intended to illustrate usage of various parts of the API to code authors.  In this case, the upstream example code has been modified quite a bit by the opendial author.  In that case (it is not vanilla upstream code, and the upstream code is not intended to be production code anyway), I believe the code does not run afoul of the no-bundling rule.

Comment 4 Pavel Alexeev 2014-05-15 11:39:02 UTC
It is a good. But will be best if that files archive standard license headers similar to other files in project. Off course it is just should not must.

BUILD SUCCESSFUL

Tests failed, but exit code is 0. It must be fixed both:
1) Return code should be not 0 if it failed.
2) Try fix failed tests with upstream author. If you are unable fix (for example doe to network activity) may be disable some.

Comment 7 Package Review 2020-07-10 00:49:31 UTC
This is an automatic check from review-stats script.

This review request ticket hasn't been updated for some time. We're sorry
it is taking so long. If you're still interested in packaging this software
into Fedora repositories, please respond to this comment clearing the
NEEDINFO flag.

You may want to update the specfile and the src.rpm to the latest version
available and to propose a review swap on Fedora devel mailing list to increase
chances to have your package reviewed. If this is your first package and you
need a sponsor, you may want to post some informal reviews. Read more at
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/How_to_get_sponsored_into_the_packager_group.

Without any reply, this request will shortly be considered abandoned
and will be closed.
Thank you for your patience.
