Good Morning: 

As one of the steps of getting ready to join the Eclipse Foundation 
"LocationTech" Industry working group we need to change the project license.

We have a shortlist of three licenses:
- BSD (http://opensource.org/licenses/BSD-2-Clause) (example EDL 
(http://www.eclipse.org/org/documents/edl-v10.php))
- Eclipse Public License (http://opensource.org/licenses/epl-1.0) (FAQ 
(http://www.eclipse.org/legal/eplfaq.php))
- MIT (http://opensource.org/licenses/mit-license.html) 


I am emailing this to both udig-devel and udig-user email lists.

We follow a public "Request for Change" procedure for running the uDig project 
(including changes like this 
(http://udig.refractions.net/confluence/display/UDIG/License+Change)).  While 
the final decision rests with the project steering committee we *very* 
interested in hearing from you.

Please feel free to reply to this email, or if you wish to express an opinion 
privately contact me at [email protected] (or any other member of the 
steering committee).
