That's not possible. Since JMimeMagic is LGPL, any modifications must result in a library that is also LGPL. As part of the ASF, all Commons components must have the Apache License. I do think something along the same lines as JMimeMagic would make a good Commons component (unless we already have one lurking somewhere that I'm not aware of). If someone happens to know either of the authors and would like to open a dialogue with them about either changing the license or possibly coming to the ASF, I think that would be worthwhile. -- Martin Cooper On 4/18/06, Sven Schliesing <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > I'm not a master in licence-things, but couldn't you just do a > > fork-release?
