I was going to reference our showcase as an example, then realized we haven’t implemented the suggestion in this email from legal-discuss, which it appears I never forwarded to dev@. I didn’t find an official template to use. I did find Apache Directory’s support page [2] using this: "The products and services listed on this page are provided for information use only to our users. The Apache Directory™ PMC does not endorse or recommend any of the products or services on this page." I think that we could use this for the showcase (swapping ‘Directory’ for ‘Flex’ of course). For TDF, it might be sufficient to add something like the following to the very bottom after the copyright and trademark notice: “Some examples include components that are developed outside of the Apache Flex project and may have different license agreements. The Apache Flex™ PMC does not endorse or recommend any of those components." -Alex [1] http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/www-legal-discuss/201312.mbox/%3c5 2b44448.9010...@shanecurcuru.org%3e [2] https://directory.apache.org/commercial-support.html
