Hi Guys, Thus what can I do ? Richard proposed a patch (http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MECLIPSE-344) which is very useful for our eclipse plugin, but it bundles 2 java classes coming from eclipse (IBM - EPL 1.0). Those sources are in src/main/eclipse with the license file.
Can I add them, or is it prohibited ?
