about Jakarta Slide commercial use

[Yu Jie <we...@yahoo.com>]

Dear,

    Our organization is planning a big project which
is a Linux-Embedded system and will be sold as
products in the market.
    It is necessary for us to choose a WebDAV product.
>From internet, we found your WebDAV product -- Jakarta
Slide.
    As we now basicly have decided to choose Jakarta
Slide in our Linux-embedded system, we would like to
know wether we have to obtain some special license or
patent to be allowed to use Jakarta Slide commercially
because we will use Jakarta Slide in our product to be
sold in the market. Though we know that Jakarta Slide
is under the Apache License 2.0 , we are still not
quite sure what to do with the situation of commercial
use. 
    If so, could you tell us the operation flow and
how much money we have to pay for it if necessary.
    Thank you very much!


Best regards and Merry Christmas!

I think apache license allows you to use apache projects freely in your 
own project ,commercial or not, as long as all original work is noted 
and all provided licenses are included in your redistribution.

I am no expert on the issue but the Apache License differs from other 
open-source licenses since you are not forced to commit your own 
project under the same license as the project you are using as a base.

Please note that Apache does not grant rights to Apache Foundation or 
Apache Project's trademarks and names so you cannot call your project 
anything related to Apache without committing it to The Apache 
Foundation. Neither does Apache grant any warranty or liability for the 
use of any of their projects.

And by the way : Merry Christmas? You´re either very late or very 
early!?! :-)
