Including ASL code in an Apache project

Is there anything special I need to do or be aware of if I want to re-use code in an Apache project that already has an ASL header on it?

I'm not on the legal-discuss list and I thought someone on this list may have already included ASL code into an Apache project.

Just curious why you are asking this question on Logging General instead of Legal Discuss?

Usually there is no problem with using other ASL licensed stuff (as a
dependency). If you want to copy the sources to trunk and modify them
I think you should ask, then it is probably a case for IP clearance
and incubation.
Here is a good FAQ: http://apache.org/foundation/license-faq.html

And, as Ralph already mentioned, legal-discuss is a nice and friendly
place with people who know better than me :-)

Cheers
