Maybe you should get some actual lawyers to answer this type of question. The Chromium license this code cites is 3-clause-BSD style, which is NOT compatible: the "advertising" clause is significant. In any case, writing copyright notices that are pointers to external web pages is not how it's done around here. We generally operate on the assumption that the Postgres source code will outlive any specific web site. Dead links to incidental material might be okay, but legally relevant stuff not so much. regards, tom lane
