I asked the Eclipse legal team about the license and they said: "Any source code put into our SCMs has to be EPL. We have to get board approval for any dual-licensing scheme. FWIW, BSD is a template license. You'll have to post the actual license they're planning to use. I took a quick look through the file attached to the first message and found that SconsBuildDoxygen.py states that is it GPL in the header." So I guess the unit test framework will be more difficult. The scons builder is pure EPL, right?
