Hi, so far I have agreement from: Cees (works now for Ebay at marktplaats.nl), Alex (reachable via gmail), Bryan Thompson (huge thanks for contacts for other developers) and Kevin Day.
I did not finished code audit yet, but I think it covers all base (I need permissions for JDBM 1.0). Only remaining file is LongKeyChainedHashMap by Soren Bak from PCJ project under LGPL http://jdbm2.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/src/main/jdbm/helper/LongKeyChainedHashMap.java I will keep trying to reach Soren, there is also replacement based on HashMap from Apache Harmony project.
