My understanding is that at this point, it's purely a policy decision of this 
project.

I think as long as the code developed here remains licensed under a business 
friendly license, then we should just continue as is. We may want to note on 
the site that for those intending to use or distribute the source code (as 
opposed to using the plugin), that the licensing of cobertura is complicated 
and they should seek their own advice.

However, I don't think we should make a habit of depending on GPL code, and 
let's not accept new plugins since there is already apache-extras, github, etc. 
for that.

Do others agree?
