Hi, Sounds like the easiest way to handle this is as you described.
Get a CCLA from Kenshoo with https://github.com/kenshoo/freemarker-online describing the code being contributed Add any current Kenshoo employees Get an ICLA from non-Kenshoo folks Create a git repo for the new content After we accept the CCLA, generate a pull request and take in the code Change package names Change license headers Craig > On Feb 22, 2017, at 10:39 AM, Daniel Dekany <ddek...@freemail.hu> wrote: > > Hello, > > This is related to the incubating FreeMarker project. > > A company called Kenshoo has developed a simple but handy online > evaluator service for FreeMarker, some 3 years ago, and they are still > hosting it.
