Hi, Here what I worked out needs to be added to LICENSE and NOTICE for each type of bundled license.
Bundled Code license LICENSE NOTICE Apache 1.1 Y Y Not sure what need to be added to NOTICE here ASF Apache 2.0 N N/Y From NOTICE If required non ASF Apache 2.0 N Y Name and copyright from NOTICE and from NOTICE if required BSD Y N BSD (advertising) Y Y Advertising clause MIT Y N CC-A Y N OFL* Y N MPL* Y Y How to obtain a copy of source code CDDL* Y Y How to obtain a copy of source code Eclipse* Y Y How to obtain a copy of source code GPL - - LGPL - - N = do nothing Y = required to add * In binary form only - Not allowed in Apache software Does anyone know what goes in NOTICE for Apache 1.1 licensed software? For Apache licensed software if required usually means 3rd party required notices or relocated copyrights that exist the NOTICE file. Oddly the BSD with advertising clause is not listed in the Category A, B or X lists so while it seems to have been discussed (at length) it may not actually be able to be bundled. Only case where there seem to be differing of opinions seems to be for bundling an ASF Apache license. Should the project name and copyright be placed in NOTICE? As far as I can tell the Apache License [1][2] doesn’t contain a requirement for a required 3rd party notice. But this [3] may mean than name and/or copyright needs to be added to NOTICE. If this is the case it would have a large impact on existing (particularly binary) releases. Has there been a discussion on this, that I may of missed, somewhere that would clarify?
