Hi,
I need the library for continuing to package freemind.
Concerning the License, I was not sure, so asked upstream and got the
following answer (with my question quoted):

It's a mixture of the apache license and the MIT license. The most of
the code is under the MIT license (see license.txt in the bundle), and a
small portion of it is under the apache license (see
Apache-LICENSE-1.1.txt)
I hope this won't make your life too hard. There are too many licenses
in the world!

So true ;-)
Thanks in advance,
Eric
