The apache license doesn't have to be used verbatim.  Just change that
credits line to

"This product includes software developed by Rob Rohan
(http://www.rohanclan.org/)."

Or whatever you want.  It's the stipulations that the license imposes that
Matt wanted.  That's the license that Fusebox 4 is released under as well,
though with a similar change to the credits line.  For maintaining good
faith, it's probably wise to include a line "license based on the Apache
Software License" or something, but the license text itself is not immutable
in any way, shape or form.

Cheers,
