Well there is also the issue of the licensing change in svnkit. I am not sure that somebody has validated that all 3rd party dependencies of Jenkins have their source bundles available, which could make it problematic to upgrade to svnkit versions with the viral license.
Of course Jenkins itself is OSS, so in principle there are no issues for Jenkins. but there is the question of do the specific versions of all 3rd party dependencies bundles within jenkins.war have source bundles. I am sure there are source bundles or SCM URLs for a version of all our 3rd party dependencies, but whether they match the exact version we ship... that is where the viral license could cause issues.
