Shouldn't be anything to worry about here Mike - EPL 1.0 has been on the B list since Cliff's original and was migrated over happily to resolved.html. That JIRA issue ( https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LEGAL-218 ) was because the page says 'EPL 1.0' and the OP was searching, I suspect, for 'Eclipse'. Nothing's changed EPL+policy wise from Cliff's work :) Hen
