1. JFlex is needed in the build time. This will happen once on one of Eclipse build servers. I guess this is legal, since everybody runs Linux GPL utilities from their ANT scripts without any compunctions :)

JavaCUP is approved, you can see these approvals here: https://dev.eclipse.org/ipzilla/buglist.cgi?query_format=advanced&short_desc_type=allwordssubstr&short_desc=javacup&long_desc_type=substring&long_desc=&bug_file_loc_type=allwordssubstr&bug_file_loc=&keywords_type=allwords&keywords=&emailassigned_to1=1&emailtype1=substring&email1=&emailassigned_to2=1&emailreporter2=1&emailcc2=1&emailtype2=substring&email2=&bugidtype=include&bug_id=&chfieldfrom=&chfieldto=Now&chfieldvalue=&cmdtype=doit&order=Reuse+same+sort+as+last+time&field0-0-0=noop&type0-0-0=noop&value0-0-0= On Wed, May 6, 2009 at 7:49 PM, Nick Boldt <nickbo...@gmail.com> wrote: >> As I see we haven't got an approval for JFlex.
