You've lost me. Everything I see at http://svn.sonatype.org/m2eclipse/sandbox/trunk/maven-performance-tests/ is under the ALv2 accdg to headers except: - the contents of a test maven repository - http://svn.sonatype.org/m2eclipse/sandbox/trunk/maven-performance-tests/remoteRepo/ which is a subset of the central repo to avoid having to download things (which can probably be done differently anyway) - http://svn.sonatype.org/m2eclipse/sandbox/trunk/maven-performance-tests/src/test/lib/ivjperf.dll which is EPL in binary form which is not a problem according to the policy.
The README.txt instructs folks to check out EPL sources and apply a patch. That's not a problem, there are no EPL sources in the main repository. You said "There are licensing problems with checking it in here which is why it's not here", which sounded like you wanted it to be here, but it can't. I wanted to point out that, in fact, it can. I'm trying to answer your concern, not force you to move it.
