jcs code copied, again
Just as ehcache copied jcs and then slowly trimmed off features, there is an old project on sourceforge that has many classes copied from JCS: http://jcache.sourceforge.net/
The idea of purgatory was mine. . . . The author took the classes from JCS and made some modifications. Basically, the project is just a mess of cobbled together bits of JCS from 2004. The comments are often verbatim.
It's blatant plagiarism.

Do they properly adhere to the ASL license?
Blatant plagiarism is fine as long as they say "This code is based on"
etc etc, don't remove our copyright and don't remove our license.
