UrlRewriteFilter changes license from GPL to BSD It looks like Sanjiv won't need to worry about the UrlRewriteFilter and its license anymore. From the UrlRewrite mailing list yesterday:

Subject: License changed to BSD and code repository changed to Subversion

Hi,

Two major changes today:

- License changing to BSD (from GPL), this should allow wider adoption of UrlRewriteFilter. (this is effective as of 3.0.4 which will be released soon)

- Project hosting moved from java.net to http://code.google.com/p/urlrewritefilter/

Over the next few days urlrewrite.java.net and tuckey.org will be changed to mention this.

Cheers,
Paul.

Sweet - thanks Paul! I continue to use (and highly recommend) the UrlRewriteFilter on almost every project I work on. Posted in Java at Apr 20 2007, 08:44:22 AM MDT 1 Comment

Just dug this out. Looks like Seam's use of UrlRewrite had something to do with the license change : http://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JBSEAM-274
