The other script doesn't appear to download anything.  It looks like it just
copies stuff around, and the ruling was that the user had to have accept the
license when they previously downloaded the stuff that script copies around.
It looked like your script downloads stuff, and all of Adobe's websites try
to make very clear the terms of use.  We (Apache) should not circumvent
that, and probably have an greater responsibility to make the licensing of
non-Apache-compatible stuff very apparent.

I will notify the FP team about the broken link, but that paragraph is their
attempt to put the licensing in front of you.
