And my +1 isn't very strong. I have no problem with saying that this
small bit of advertising is the tiny price that you pay for using our
free software. But just to make this never-ending issue go away, I'd
say put it in.
I should also be pointed out in the documentation that those thinking of
setting it to "Off" for the purpose of security by obscurity (for hiding
of implementation and version number) should realize that this concept
has no technical merit in the HTTP server situation. Call this an
education clause in the documentation which may head off inappropriate
usage by less clueful users.
With regards to "the price that you pay ..." I take it that you are
reading it from the karma equalization policy not in any legal policy
since one of the fundamental points of the Apache Foundation is that
advertisement is not one of the prices you pay.
