IMO that's nothing to worry about. This is clearly only meant as a copyright protection for the sources. It does not contain any "infectious" clauses regarding the redistribution of binary stuff.

sounds almost GPLish....
Also, I don't see any mention of what can or can't be done with binary distribution. Everything is in terms of source code, it seems.

Urh, that sounds alarming. What are the proposed changes to the Apache license? Do you have a link?

Hello All,
I was wondering what everyone's thoughts were on the licensing of OJB. I would very much like to incorporate OJB into our next project, a comercial project. However the legal department is balking at the proposed changes to the Apache License. Their position is that the current Apache license is acceptable, but *proposed* changes are not.
I am not a lawyer (much to my Dad's dismay) but I am wondering what everyone out there is doing.
Thanks
Bob c
