Great job Shane, I'd consider a couple of minor changes. Add in the first paragraph that it can be used for any purpose and you can make copies. I know that a careful reader could read it below, but many just read the very first paragraph. I'd consider also to add in the "Is Apache software free to use? May I use it for any purpose?" section a couple of hints for who want to repackage it, so that we can point this people to thart page.
