The SF project is listed as being ASL. The LICENSE.txt file in the most recent release (0.7) is ASL 1.1 (Jakarta commons variation), but about 2 weeks ago this was updated in cvs [1] to assign the copyright to a specific individual (Greg Luck) and the attribution to:
* "This product includes software developed by Greg Luck * (http://sourceforge.net/users/gregluck) and contributors. * See http://sourceforge.net/project/memberlist.php?group_id=93232 * for a list of contributors"
The license included in the source files was updated at the same time.
There is renewed interest in JCS and someone has offered a patch [2] that ports all of the bug fixes in Ehcache back to JCS but I am wondering if there is anything special we need to do to legitimise this code.
I am suggesting we do the following: 1. Update JCS to use ASL 2.0, as is required anyway. 2. Apply the patches and note the Ehcache attribution in NOTICES.txt
Is this the correct approach?
