Given that we just re-licensed all of GlassFish (Java EE) from

Exactly! I do realize that I was being quite shameless in that regard.
I can assure you that the Eclipse Foundation alone has more than a
handful of projects. (Over 350 actually.) Then there are the
entire Clojure and OpenDaylight communities, along with JUnit,
Mondrian, etc.
Yes, I worded that badly. I meant that there are only a handful of
well-known EPL-licensed projects *outside the Eclipse Foundation*,
which is
definitely not the case for Apache-licensed projects outside the
Apache Foundation. Wikipedia lists only four beyond the four you
mentioned: ksh, graphviz, Jikes, and UWIN.
There are obviously more than that, but I am certainly not going to
argue that the EPL has the adoption of the Apache License.
But until or unless the OSI changes its criteria, I will continue to
assert that the EPL is supported by a strong community.
