Not knowing too much about JasperReports, it's hard to say on technicals
alone.  However, two things stand out in BIRT's favor:

1.  I think the Eclipse license is compatible with the Apache license,
while Jasper's LGPL is not.  (Can someone confirm?)

2.  I like the fact that it's an Eclipse plugin, rather than some other
Jasper designer tool.
