Hi,

If I remember correctly, Geertjan already asked me about this and I'm
completely fine with having the license change and / or donating the code
to Apache if needed. However, whatever we do, I would prefer if the release
of a new version of the Gradle plugin could be done independently of
NetBeans. Maybe, NB's build could download the latest release of the Gradle
plugin from JCenter?

Also, I have a couple of questions:

- I'm using another one of my library which is also LGPL is that OK, or do
I have to change that as well?
- I have a couple of external dependencies bundled:
  - org.gradle:gradle-tooling-api: I don't know it's license but Gradle
itself uses Apache 2.0, so I assume the same for its Tooling API.
  - org.slf4j:slf4j-api: MIT license.
  - com.google.code.findbugs:jsr305: BSD license.
  - com.google.guava:guava: Apache 2.0

bye,
Attila Kelemen
