Discussion on LocaitonTech has now gotten back to this question… basically
confirms what we already know.
> I had a question around the use of EPL (I know it is your recommended default

>
> The story we are focused on is ability to transfer small blocks of code down
> into GeoTools when the occasion warrants.
> - We have a history of pushing, particularly QA and testing code, closer to
> where the problems occur.
> - I have also watched teams rapidly prototyped code in uDig (often for a
> customer / deadline) before transferring the technology to GeoTools in
> benefit from wider community testing.
>
> Q: Is this story possible with EPL, or should we focus on one of the other
> license options?
A: EPL to LGPL is not possible at the patch level (can be handled at the
component jar level)
A: The "universal donor licenses" are MIT and BSD and ALv2
