Re: [Gitclipse-devel] Apache License Corruption!

At first glance they appear to be okay because Apache allows relicensing with licenses that don't conflict (similar to BSD). My only question is about their patent stances, but I assume those are probably similar and don't conflict. You're right the code is from subclipse. And subclipse prominently claims to be EPL. I think we're probably okay. If someone think otherwise we know which files are of issue since the notice is in the file. I'm good with it. I think that's all we needed to get done for an official alpha release. Patrick, Is the update site automatically updated after a successful build? Paul, As much documentation as you can muster on the Usage/Tutorial would be great (I saw you already put up some on the wiki). Everyone, I didn't manage to finish my Undo/Redo implementation, I probably won't have time to get back to it until next Friday (when my other project is due). So if anyone wants to try their hand at that, they are more than welcome to. Does anyone want to go ahead and make an anouncement?! Probalby the same places that javagit did would be great as far as I'm concerned. I'm putting the update link on our main page tonight.
