I think it would be sufficient to identify Apache FOP by including the URL[1] with your disclaimer (or however you reference it). Here's an idea I took from the XML Graphics page[2]:
Apache FOP <http://xmlgraphics.apache.org/fop/> is a print formatter & renderer for XSL-FO (FO=formatting objects), based in Java. Apache FOP is a sub-project of the Apache XML Graphics Project <http://xmlgraphics.apache.org/>.
Hope this helps!

IANAL, but I don't think I've ever seen such a copyright notice for an Apache product. People just seem to write "Apache FOP", "Cocoon", "Apache Struts", etc. in their writing. I'm unsure if FOP is even a trademark.

Hi, gang,
I'm writing a case study about how I produced a 1700-page PDF description of a database with FOP (and 1300+ HTML files with Saxon 8). Naturally, I want to get the legal bit at the bottom of the page right. My editor can probably deal with it, but I'd rather help her out than make her puzzle it out herself (and I'd rather clear these small roadblocks that will slow the article being published). Besides, I don't want to trample the intellectual property of one of my favorite organizations
So, what is the proper way to cite FOP? Sun requires "JavaHelp is a trademark of Sun Microsystems, Inc. in the U.S. and other countries." (I'm adding JavaHelp output to the system, too, by the way). Does FOP require something similar? If so, what is the approved wording?
Thanks much.
