[jira] Updated: (FELIX-1) Resolve OSGi licensing concerns prior to
Incubator graduation
[ http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FELIX-1?page=all ]
BJ Hargrave updated FELIX-1:
----------------------------
Attachment: org.osgi.patch
The OSGi Alliance recently decided to change the license of the OSGi companion code from EPL to Apache License 2.0. I have attached a patch for the org.osgi folder in trunk to update all the files to the most recent version including the Apache License 2.0 notice.
This patch will remove all OSGi EPL licensed source files.
[Patch was prepared with SmartSVN]
