In the "Bundling an AL Font" thread on legal-discuss, sebb said: "It is useful to mention all 3rd party inclusions in the LICENSE file, including ones under AL2.0: - Makes it much easier for the consumer to ensure that the code uses a license with which they are comfortable. - it helps the ASF project to ensure that all external inclusions are accounted for.
Yes, it means updating the file every time an external version is updated, but the license still has to be checked in case it has changed." Not sure it can be mandated though. -Alex On 7/17/14 5:53 PM, "Justin Mclean" <jus...@classsoftware.com> wrote: >Hi, > >Lets take for instance slider as they have just put up an RC for voting. > >Slider bundles a few things and may have some Apache Licensed software >bundled.
