There seems to be a little confusion about what the ASF permits re: licensing.
The ASF does explicitly forbid packaging ASL2 code with third party code licensed under what they call "Category X" licenses. This includes things like the GPL but definitely not the MPL. MPL1.1 - under which RabbitMQ is licensed - falls into ASF's "Category B" list. Software under these licenses "may be included in binary form within an Apache product if the inclusion is appropriately labeled". The following link has more: http://www.apache.org/legal/resolved.html#category-b It may also be worth pointing out that using the ASL2 does not require you to contribute code to the ASF, therefore you can safely ignore them. I hope this helps to clear things up.
