Re: [hono-dev] Migration to EPL 2.0

+1 from me, too. 

And we should also add this change to our release notes.

Hi committers and contributors,

as part of the review of our latest release, the IoT Program Management Council
has asked, if and when we would be migrating to EPL 2.0. It seems that the
Eclipse Foundation would be much in favor of seeing all of its projects going
that way.

Personally, I have not problem with migrating to EPL 2.0 since it makes
commercial use of our software even easier than under EPL 1.0.

The Eclipse Foundation has created an FAQ [1] which aims at providing answers
around the EPL in general and the differences between EPL 1.0 and 2.0.

My understanding of [2] is that we may elect to distribute Hono under EPL 2.0 and
then simply change the source code headers and accompanying legal docs
accordingly.

WDYT?
