I think EPL is compatible with Apache same as BSD and MIT. It should not be a problem using the binaries. AFAIK, Apache Tomcat uses Eclipse compiler for JSP compilation and this compiler falls under same license.

Thanks,

Walter Vaughan commented on OFBIZ-1348:
---------------------------------------

AFAIK, BIRT uses EPL (the Eclipse Public Licence) 
http://www.eclipse.org/org/documents/epl-v10.php and I thought we needed to 
have everything under Apache License. I doubt we can get everyone in the BIRT 
project to agree to relicense under ASF terms.

I'm guessing this will be closed in a matter of minutes...
Which is sad, because it would be nice to have a hundreds of quickly edited 
reports in the system.

add the BIRT as the ofbiz component
