it's a tricky question that involves patent policy: http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/www-legal-discuss/200612.mbox/[EMAIL PROTECTED] may well take a while to figure out and we may well want to try to lobby Yahoo! for license changes. seems unlikely to be concluded anytime soon. might be worth considering hosting development offshore under a dual license (ASF+Yahoo!) but continuing to use this list for discussions. if apache policy decides that the Yahoo! patent license is acceptable then a software grant can be used. - robert --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
