Hi,
Thanks for the request. Unfortunately, I suspect we have an issue with
the license.
It is my understanding that the GPL (license of eclipse-eclox) is not
compatiable with the EPL (license of eclipse). Unless there are a
special exception allowing us to link the two together, I don't think we
are permitted to distribute eclipse-eclox.
