The existence of two license files in the source repository would be confusing and misleading to the user, where the ASF has chosen to distribute the code strictly under one (non-copyleft) election among multiple licenses offered. Second; the ASF will not combine source code works. The combination you quote above that can and do inevitably happen with the use of ASF works when used in combination with copyleft works is left to the user's discretion and for the user to decipher and comply with (in terms of their net responsibilities under the combined licenses). This paragraph deals with, for example, SuSE's choice to combine Apache httpd with your icon collection. Now, the ASF is happy to consider contributions under the Apache License, or any license which does not add additional restrictions (e.g. copyleft clauses) or subtract any rights (e.g. non-commercial use only clauses) when added into the Apache License of the combined work. For example, the BSD license, sans advertising requirement, satisfies this consideration. The choice of license here is interesting; because your work should necessarily always be conveyed in source code (e.g. an image representation) that is transmitted to all end users (e.g. as broadly as the AGPL would require) there is really no difference between licensing these icons in BSD, AL, or LGPL. Licensing in GPL or AGPL would of course add further requirements with respect to the source code of the entire work. The only right you lose in offering a more flexible BSD or AL, rather than LGPL, is the redistribution with reuse license requirement of any modified icons if someone based a set of icons on your original art. So if these are your own originala works, and you have not conveyed all copyright to another party (e.g. the FSF) - but retain the right to convey licenses yourself, and you would like to offer these under an Apache License to the ASF, we would be glad to continue the discussion of accepting such an offer.
