I understand the need to credit Apache, but the license says nothing about
having to credit them on your website. IANAL, but as far as I can tell, you
are free to credit them solely within your running executable if you like.
Snippet one:
* 2. Redistributions in binary form must reproduce the above copyright
* notice, this list of conditions and the following disclaimer in
* the documentation and/or other materials provided with the
* distribution.
It says in the documentation *and/or* other materials provided. I could see
where one may interept other materials provided to include the binary
executables.
Snippet two:
* 3. The end-user documentation included with the redistribution, if
* any, must include the following acknowlegement:
* "This product includes software developed by the
* Apache Software Foundation (http://www.apache.org/)."
* Alternately, this acknowlegement may appear in the software itself,
* if and wherever such third-party acknowlegements normally appear.
This one blatently says that the acknowledge may appear in the software
itself.
