David Crossley commented on FOR-1177:
-------------------------------------

The trouble is that Rhino licensing is very obscure.

A general wide search might help, as there are various ASF projects using Rhino.

This search at "legal-discuss" helps:
http://markmail.org/search/?q=list:org.apache.legal-discuss+rhino

Especially this:
 Subject: Rhino now MPL/GPL
 Date: 2006-11-14
 http://markmail.org/message/aeuint32kcuhpgqo
which links to a "mozilla.dev.tech" thread about "Relicensing of Rhino to MPL"
which links back to some other ASF discussion threads.

So we might need to update our version of Rhino.

> While assessing the license situation for FOR-855 and FOR-857 ... one of the
