Question about licenses in the Apache BookKeeper project

Hello!

I have checked some of the asf pages with legal discussions and I couldn't get an answer for a couple of questions about licenses in our project as we are preparing a release:

1- We have a couple of files that are automatically generated, more specifically, they are generated by the protocol buffers compiler. Do they need to include the Apache license?
2- We've needed to include some files from the boost c++ libraries, and they include a license like this:

# LICENSE
#
#   Copyright (c) 2008 Thomas Porschberg <th...@randspringer.de>
#   Copyright (c) 2008 Pete Greenwell <pe...@mu.org>
#
#   Copying and distribution of this file, with or without modification, are
#   permitted in any medium without royalty provided the copyright notice
#   and this notice are preserved. This file is offered as-is, without any
#   warranty.

Is this ok to include in a release?

Thanks,
-Flavio
