Questions about the relicensing under MIT license

Hi,

I welcome the recent license change to the MIT License.

However, our lawyer is not yet convinced that the license change is legally "clean".

Could you confirm that:

  1. No legacy code originating from the Java GNU ClassPath project remains
    • I could not find any clear statement or indication that all that code has been replaced in the meantime...
    • Alternatively, the original copyright olders (FSF or contributors) could confirm to the relicensing...
  2. All contributors have agreed to relicense under MIT
    • This seems to be very likely according to the discussions at https://github.com/icsharpcode/SharpZipLib/issues/103 and https://github.com/icsharpcode/SharpZipLib/pull/101

Btw, the homepage http://icsharpcode.github.io/SharpZipLib/ still carries the old license, can anyone upate it?

 

Thanks!
