Reading https://github.com/aws-amplify/aws-sdk-android/blob/main/LICENSE.txt says:

The AWS SDK for Android is generally licensed under the Apache 2.0 License, with the Amazon Cognito Identity Provider aws-android-sdk-cognitoidentityprovider subcomponent being licensed under the Amazon Software License, and the Amazon Lex subcomponent under the path aws-android-sdk-deepsense/src/main/jni/ under the AWS Customer Agreement (https://aws.amazon.com/agreement/ ).

Which sounds fine, but looking at the maven repo, eg. https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/com.amazonaws/aws-android-sdk-auth-core/2.75.2

I see License: Amazon

Looking at the POM file: https://repo1.maven.org/maven2/com/amazonaws/aws-android-sdk-auth-core/2.75.2/aws-android-sdk-auth-core-2.75.2.pom we see Amazon Software License

Can we get some clarification?

For F-Droid we can't include apps that depend on non-FOSS licensed code.

@licaon-kter We've updated the the license name in the POM file to Apache 2.0. The change will be reflected our next release.

Ok, so looking again at https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/com.amazonaws/aws-android-sdk-auth-core/2.77.0 it's Apache 2.0 👍

now, reading again

the Amazon Cognito Identity Provider aws-android-sdk-cognitoidentityprovider subcomponent being licensed under the Amazon Software License

and looking at https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/com.amazonaws/aws-android-sdk-cognitoidentityprovider/2.77.0 we have the opposite issue, this is marked as Apache 2.0 when it should not, right?
