Bundling

Recently a number of reviews of Node.js packages that I have been involved in, both as a submitter and as a reviewer, have run into an issue with code that has been copied from elsewhere.

A couple of things I'm reviewing that are blocked on this:

nodejs-vows - https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=911229
nodejs-should - https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=911188

One of my packages with a similar problem:

nodejs-oauth - https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=914924

and a post-review ticket relating to one that slipped through:

nodejs-deep-equal - https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=915082

None of these are strictly a bundled library in the sense of having a copy of a complete package - each is a case of copying a file, or even just a single function, from another source.

The question I have is whether this amounts to bundling that needs to be resolved and/or granted an exception? or can it pass review as is?

Thanks for any advice you can offer,

Tom
