Has Athens considered updating it's Eclipse license from 1.0 to 2.0?
The original license was based on CPL which is 15+ years old. Essentially the change has updated terms, choice of law provisions removed, option for secondary licenses added, and the license is suitable for JavaScript. EPL 1.0 is officially deprecated. More info.
As a medium-risk, weak copyleft license all modifications must be released under the same license (but not the entire application).
EPL 1.0 is NOT compatible with GPL and a work created by combining GPL-licensed work cannot be lawfully distributed for example Fluree is licensed under AGPL, so we could not adopt Fluree and then distribute Athens.
