7 years ago No, the 'CA OSL v1.0' was created fourteen years ago when JXplorer was first made open source. While we are very grateful to CA for the initial donation, CA is no longer associated with the JXplorer project.
The original CA OSL v1.0 licence was based very, very closely on the Apache licence that was popular circa 2002 - I haven't evaluated the new version of the CA licence, however it may be more restrictive than the original, and as such would not be compatible with the intent of people who have contributed code to JXplorer since 2002.

Is this intended or shall we expect an update?
