[jira] Commented: (LEGAL-57) Re-licensing of log4cplus under ASL 2.0.

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LEGAL-57?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12744135#action_12744135 ] 

Sam Ruby commented on LEGAL-57:
-------------------------------

While this created a lively discussion, I don't see the any answer to the original question.

The answer to your question is yes, not only can you relicense the code from log4j that was previously licensed as ASL 11. to Apache License 2.0, you are requested to do so before making any ASF releases based on this code.

> I have asked[1][2] in the legal-discuss@ mailing list about some issues related to log4cplus' license. Some of log4cplus code comes from log4j that was licensed under ASL 1.1 at the time log4cplus has been created. Log4j is now licensed under ASL 2.0. I would like to move log4cplus' license to ASL 2.0, too. IANAL, basically, I am asking if I can re-license the code in log4cplus that came from log4j under ASL 2.0.
