Well, it doesn't have to be a switch. Sun could also release JXTA under
(L)GPL concurrently as Apache.

Well, making it GPL or LGPL would put my company out of business, so...
I sincerely hope that ain't going to happen.

(Disclosure: at the risk of getting flamed--for *most* purposes, though
not all, I despise the GPL.)

Wondering if there are any plans to make JXTA (or JXTA-J2SE) available
under GPL or LGPL to keep the reference implementation inline with a
single license?

What are the pros and cons of doing so for projects that have already
taken off based on the present License?

Appreciate both official stand and professional observations by the
members.

Cheers,
