Hi Niklas,

EPL1 is one of the licenses labeled as "Category B" and according to
<http://www.apache.org/legal/resolved.html#category-b>:

"Software under the following licenses may be included in binary form
within an Apache product if the inclusion is appropriately labeled"

yes, I'd say :)

All the best!
