> Project: Legal Discuss
> Issue Type: Question
> Reporter: Jukka Zitting
>
> The DOM4J library (http://www.dom4j.org/) is available under a BSD-style license (http://www.dom4j.org/dom4j-1.6.1/license.html) that contains the following clause:
> 5. Due credit should be given to the DOM4J Project - http://www.dom4j.org
> Should this be interpreted similarly as the advertising clause in the original BSD license? This clause seems weaker than the original advertising clause, but given the concerns of OSI-compatibility of such clauses I would like to better understand our position on this.
> Can an Apache project include the DOM4J library in a release? If yes, what would constitute the required "due credit"?
