Subject: Etherpad project includes JSMin, which has been banned from Google Code
Hi,

In light of the recent banning of JSMin from Google Code (see [1] and
[2]) due to licensing issues, I thought you might like to know that
the new Etherpad project includes jsmin.js and is thus in violation of
Google Code's terms of service:

As a side note, it's not a matter of violating the terms of service, which
don't mention specific licenses, it is against our practices, though.

(CC'ing Douglas, since everyone seems to love invoking him)

Thanks, Dan, can you pull jsmin from the the etherpad project? Users will
have to download it themselves until Crockford can use a license that is osi
compliant.

Looks like Google Page Speed also includes JSMin:

Chris, maybe you should ask Doug for an IBM-style exemption. ;)
