For background, please see #1.

Your contributions to nREPL over the years are greatly appreciated. To better serve all of the users of nREPL, and to simplify things for those that are most impacted by the project, I am pulling development here (where the project began some 8 years ago).

Note that the license is not changing from EPL, the license that has always governed nREPL contributions. However, your commits were submitted through the Clojure Contrib process, which carries additional terms. Since I am seeking to excise the Contrib/CA heritage from the project, and IANAL, I'm now asking to reaffirm your licensing of your nREPL commits under "regular" EPL terms, so they may be included here.

Once all contributors indicate their assent here, I will reconstruct the nREPL commit history to include only your work, which will drop things like minor build process changes, commits by the build.clojure.org buildbot, etc. My hope is that the result will be a place where people invested in nREPL and the tools that depend upon it can collaborate using familiar practices and a set of enthusiastically shared expectations.

tl;dr

If you agree to license your contributions to tools.nrepl under the Eclipse Public License, please respond here with "OK" or similar. This will unambiguously allow those contributions to be used in other EPL-licensed contexts (including this project) without consideration of the Clojure Contribution Agreement (CA), under which those contributions were made originally.

If you do not agree, please indicate this in a comment as well, or contact me directly by email.

The roster of contributors with material commits in the tools.nrepl history are as follows:

Thank you again for your work. ♥️
