Some of their examples (like Alan C's post describing how he took code from Elba
for use in his JAAS implementation) should raise some eyebrows. But the real
question remains--is this what he ended up doing, and who owned the copyright

commiters here? If so, there's no foul play afoot because it's their property
and they've made their wishes with regards to that property well known. If it
wasn't their property, if they developed a derivative of someone else's property
under terms of a license, then they must continue to abide by the terms of that
license.
