Also Apache Maven uses it as a transitive dependency, being shipped with the Modello project that generates an XPP parser for the Maven model. SO, I'd consider the XPP license issue resolved - of course at Syncope we need to include it in the LICENSE file contained in the war file that redistribute it.
