Can you explain how the EPL license works? I am not familiar
with that license. Is DWT and anything using it considered a
derivative work off Eclipse? Do I need to share source for my
project if I use DWT in my project?
From tldrlegal[1]:
"This license, made and used by the Eclipse Foundation, is
similar to GPL but allows you to link code under the license to
proprietary applications. You may also license binaries under a
proprietary license, as long as the source code is available
under EPL."

This doesn't really explain much. It's confusing. It's similar to
GPL. So if I release an app using DWT, I need to release the
sourcecode for my app? Or do I only need to release the code for
DWT (if I did any changes to the sourcecode).
