Jasig is preparing a comprehensive new licensing policy that will adopt
the Apache 2.0 License and provide for Contributor License Agreements.  This
new policy will cover the existing projects, uPortal and CAS, as well as
new projects and portlets under incubation.  Compliance with the
new licensing policy will become one of the major criteria for projects
to emerge from incubation and become full Jasig projects.

We have posted a public review draft of the proposed policy on the Jasig
wiki site, including our rationale for the change.  You can review the full
draft here:
http://www.ja-sig.org/wiki/x/6YB9AQ

The Jasig Board of Directors is requesting comments on this draft until
August 5, 2009. All comments should be sent to the Jasig public
discussion mailing list at jasig-licens...@lists.jasig.org -- you do not
have to join this mailing list in order to send your comments.  At the
end of that period, the Board will review the comments, make any
agreed-upon changes, and then vote on adopting the new policy.

We look forward to your input and to implementing this new policy that
we think we be beneficial to our projects, our users, and our developers.
