The permission is now archived in the apache mail archives.

The jsecurity NOTICE file (contained in both binary and source  
distributions) should be updated to include a reference to the file  
with the code and the email link requested. There shouldn't be  
anything in the source .java file itself.

Guy, I think you just did it perfect ! Asking Heintz Kabutz about the 
code license, and the usage conditions was just plain right.

AFAICT, it's just ok to use the code, assuming we include the code 
license in our NOTICE.txt file, or at least a note indicating where the 
code come from (a URL could help). You also have to add the link to his 
web site in a 'thanks' page ( see 
http://directory.apache.org/community%26resources/thanks-to.html for 
instance) on the website (thus the importance of a website !). Many 
projects do so.

Thanks !

Hi Mentors,

I used some initial ideas from Heinz for a memory-restricted Map
implementation using Soft References (now in our SVN).  I've changed it a
decent amount after the initial seeding of the source though.  I wrap that
Map in a Cache implementation to use in CacheManager.  No memory leaks
unlike the HashtableCache.

I'd like to use this as the default CacheManager if one is not configured,
instead of a hard dependency on Ehcache (or perhaps discuss if caching is
disabled entirely unless explicitly configured).

In any case, now that we have Heinz's permission, is there anything we need
to do in the project for clearance purposes? (as long as we abide by his
wishes of linking to his website in the source code/javadoc of course - see
the referenced email below).
