[Springframework-developer] JOTM now under BSD License

[<tri...@tr...>]

This just in ...

"Application servers like JOnAS or Geronimo are assemblies of software
components. JOnAS already relies on components developed by the Apache Software
Foundation (e.g. Tomcat, a Java servlet container). ObjectWeb decided to depart
from its licensing policy so to enable in return Geronimo developers to use some
ObjectWeb components. For this reason, JOTM (a Java transaction manager) and ASM
(a Java byte-code manipulation framework) are from now on distributed under the
BSD license, which is compatible with the Apache License."

From a Apache/ObjectWeb press release:

Does this open up new possibilities in terms of what we can distribute for Demo
Applications?  Tomcat/JOTM + Spring/TransactionAOP
