We'll have to do a "complicated license talk" with the ASF no matter what happens unless the published license of the code appears in the list of approved ASF licenses.
And anything that does not fall under "Category A: Authorized Licenses" will be difficult to integrate. http://people.apache.org/~cliffs/3party.html#category-a GPL falls under "Category X: Excluded Licenses" On 2/25/07, Adrian Wiesmann <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:

I asked Francisco if he would mind if I redistribute parts of his code under the GPLv2. This was no problem for him. I'd first contact Francisco before doing some complicated licence talk with the ASF. But first of all it would be required that everybody is OK with adding some (this) diagram editor to Cayenne. My earlier mail was just a suggestion. Please first have a look at alternatives and at the source/implementation in question... Adrian
