Review the Jumper version 2.0.1.7 License

Jumper follows an innovative Contributor Agreement ("CA") policy for particular improvement modules that do not dynmically link to the GPL modules. These improvements and any related customization that is provided for or by customers allow contributors to retain their own copyright while sharing a joint copyright interest in the contributed code. This way contributors retain all the rights granted by copyright law while sharing those rights with the open source project sponsor so that the code is protected.

Jumper chose the CDDL as the Contributor Agreement license because it believes this license strikes a good balance of allowing customes to own and control and changes they make to the Jumper code base. The CDDL allows customers to contribute any modifications to the Jumper sourcefiles back to the community only if and when they choose to distribute those modifications. However, Jumper recognizes that over time there may be a need to adjust the license or adapt to new licensing models as they evolve. The CA will allow Jumper to consider alternative licensing models for the Jumper code base (although the code will always remain available under the CDDL as well).

Many corporations are starting to consider Open Source technologies as a way to reduce IT spending while taking advantage of existing technologies. Many companies are widening Open Source reach to projects that wouldn't have been considered before. With the current economic situation cutting IT budgets, even more institutions are reconsidering their attitudes toward open source technology. Think about yourself and the company you work for: How many projects did you want to launch but had to put off until next year? How many business opportunities you believe could have embraced if your budget had been friendlier? We firmly believe that Open Source opens the door for companies that are looking to keep on growing despite the current environment.
