It was not compatible when you started, because OmegaT was under the GPLv2. OmegaT is now under the GPLv3, which is compatible with the Apache 2 license.

Unfortunately it cannot, because of a little sentence introduced in the license text:
http://www.gnu.org/licenses/license-list.en.html
"This license uses the Expat license as a base, but adds a clause mandating: “The Software shall be used for Good, not Evil.” This is a restriction on usage and thus conflicts with freedom 0. The restriction might be unenforcible, but we cannot presume that. Thus, the license is nonfree."

Attachments are not available in the OmegaT Yahoo group.
