In the case I am considered an "author" for having contribute during GSoC 2012 to porting Axios Tools un uDig Core, I have no problem in changing the license of files bearing my name. In the case you are replying me: "so.. ..please do the change yourself!" do not forget to also add some hints on how to perform the task. ;-) I have no idea on how to contribute to new LocationTech repositories. Actually even where are they and whether am I allowed to edit them.
