Correct. Though another issue your PMC may want to see answered is - how is this community going to maintain it; are there enough active SAP experts to see to it that this piece of code is going to be alive and healty for years to come. Even if some of the original people drop out ? This is a rather specific piece of code wiht a lot of infrastructure around it.
Using brings complains, bugfixes and finally maintainance. IMHO this is no big problem.
If people really don't use it - it's just another component in our CVS.
...like maybe others that are rarely used;)
So I don't really see anything besides the licence issue.
Altough it is the question whether it's worth the risk getting into trouble because of a non-Apache licence for code that *maybe* isn't even used by many people...
But I think: either the licence is
a) ok -> let's include it
b) not ok -> ask the author to modify the licence or host it somewhere else
