I don't see any need for approval from legal on that.  It's clearly a 3-clause 
BSD license for Trilead itself and the included Plattner work, plus the 
standard MIT X11 license for Bouncy Castle.  All are Apache-compatible.

We do need to make sure that the copyright acknowledgement is in the 
documentation though.
