There was a robots.net story and a slashdot story on it last week:
http://robots.net/article/2273.html
JPL initially claimed it was "open source" but the license was pretty
clearly proprietary (e.g. non-commercial use only, only a portion of the
source code is really available). Looks like they've updated their
press release since then to remove the words "open source". They also
changed the name of the license from the Claraty Open Source License to
Claraty TSPA License. :)
Other than the issues with it not being free software, you can find some
details on what it actually does in this 41 page description:
