Ok, so I won't bother trying to find the exact point at which the
license changed and take the tag for the 3.2.3.
I'll just create a project at Codehaus unless someone wants to put it
somewhere else.

Honestly there isn't too much wrong with the current 3.2.3 version
that I am
aware of, but I think we can improve on it none the less.
Thanks,

Hi,
I have contact Leif of JSW but have yet to get a response about the
license change.
Project that start using a commercially liberal license and then
switching long into the life of a project is wrong. If you want
to do the
GPL/commercial thing then say so from the start. I have nothing
wrong with
this model, but for libraries and tools using a commercially
liberal license
is the best way to get community adoption and then to flip the
license I
find a little unsavory.
Anyone interested in forking it and maintaining the version that
was
not GPL?
I agree. That's pretty bad.
I don't have a lot of time but am wiling to help where I can. I
am not
familiar with building C artifacts with Maven but am dying to learn.
The NAR plugin will easily do it, so it would be interesting from a
build
perspective but we could continue to work on it. I'd hire a C
developer to
work on it before I would support a project that does the BSDish ->
GPL
switch-a-roo years into a project.
Regards,
Alan

Our achievements speak for themselves. What we have to keep track
of are our failures, discouragements and doubts. We tend to forget
the past difficulties, the many false starts, and the painful
groping. We see our past achievements as the end result of a
clean forward thrust, and our present difficulties as
signs of decline and decay.
