Agreed, that was my proposal for the Showcase. My proposal for TDF was: “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." > >How about this text? > >This example or component has been developed by a 3rd party and is hosted >outside of the Tour De Flex site and may contain links to non ASF sites. >It's code may be under a license other than the Apache license so please >check carefully before using it.

I think mine is shorter and more consistent with other disclaimers. If you really have to go with yours I would take out the “for legal reasons”. AFAICT, it isn’t so much a “you broke the law” issue, but rather, 1) trying to ensure there isn’t corporate influence on Apache and 2) more about tax treatment of the potential value of endorsements. -Alex
