Perhaps you can recap the status of the code. Was most of the code written by a small number of people? Were there a large number of substantial contributors at some point? Either a Software Grant or an ICLA would be appropriate once we understand the nature of the contributions.This reflects the current situation pretty accurately. I've contacted everyone, so I know how to find them.http://www.jspwiki.org/wiki/ApacheRelicensingIf they don't want to sign an ICLA, a software grant is still sufficient?
Yes. An ICLA covers current and future contributions, but if all they want is to grant rights and not contribute further, a Software Grant is fine. If they want to contribute in future, they can always submit an ICLA later.
