Likely of interest to at least a subset of this group is an announcement on the Saverese home page at <http://www.savarese.org/>. Salient excerpt:
ORO Java Software
In June, OROMatcher 2.0, PerlTools 2.0, and the rest of the ORO text processing software (AwkTools and TextTools) will be donated to the Apache Jakarta Project, which will take over custodianship of the software, housing CVS repository, mailing lists, and release archives. The software will be released under the Apache license, which is a BSD-style license that will allow projects such as JPython to continue to use the software without special licensing.
