I think we need something a little more than things that someone might
have said on a mailing list once if we remember correctly. I can't
find any kind of document on the ZeroTurnaround site which lays out
the details of the license ... in particular anything which says it's
freely redistributable.

I think that JavaRebel is a fine product. But what you're suggesting
would basically be an open source project giving it free advertising.
It's not clear to me (yet) why the Scala community should be expected
to do that.
