[jbosstools-dev] New License Feature for JBoss Tools projects

[Nick Boldt]

A new license feature has been created for use by all the JBoss Tools 
projects.

Between now and CR1 (but ideally, done for Beta2 if you have the 
bandwidth!), you should migrate your features to use this new feature.

The reason for this is that the Red Hat license address has changed [1].

So, you can update the 100s of files in your project which refer to the 
old license terms, or you can remove that text, and instead simply 
reference the new license feature. In future, license changes will 
therefore be inherited automatically.

Details on the new license feature [2]:
