Has anyone checked the status of the switch from GPL to ALv2?
I found the announcement (link below) but not a lot beyond that.
Were all the original authors contacted for the licence change or
was there some form of copyright assignment to "couchddb"?
Or do the ICLA's just cover this?
I don't believe that the ICLA's just cover this. Unless the
copyrights were assigned to CouchDB, we need to contact every
contributor and get their permission to relicense under AL 2.0.
