I think we are going a bit too far here. Groovy has been under the AL 2.0 license since it moves from BSD (back in 2003). AL 2.0 says :
" Subject to the terms and conditions of this License, each Contributor hereby grants to You a perpetual, worldwide, non-exclusive, no-charge, royalty-free, irrevocable copyright license to reproduce, prepare Derivative Works of, publicly display, publicly perform, sublicense, and distribute the Work and such Derivative Works in Source or Object form." My understanding is that any groovy contributor, including the 5 initial commiters, can grant the existing code base to The ASF, per the AL 2.0 license. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: general-unsubscr...@incubator.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: general-h...@incubator.apache.org
