Actually, it looks like is distributed under the LGPL, but the docs
state some included utilties are GPL'ed, but the documentation does
not say which ones are.

If the work looks like it is useful for jakarta-commons, it cannot hurt
to contact the author(s) of jdring to see if they can, and are willing,
relicense it under the Apache license.
