redistributing Tomcat
Hello,
we intend to give give out Tomcat 3.1 along with a Servlet to make a
complete package that people can try out instantly. The Servlet is
Open Source.
Are there any guidelines to be followed for this procedure? Specific
ways in which we should mention Tomcat? General things to be
displayed?
Thanks for any hints/documentation!
Regards

The minimum requirements say that your user documentation has to acknowledge the
use of ASF software. Any more than that would certainly be appreciated -- for
example, you are welcome to use the "Powered by Tomcat" graphic that is included
with Tomcat's examples -- but not required.

I assumed that to hold, but wondered if there are some other "customs"
to be followed. I.e., if it would be considered "good behaviour" to
display a 'using Tomcat technology by the Apache Software Foundation'
message or the like somewhere (and if yes, how). Tomcat is a really
cool piece of software and we want to give credit where its due.
