Hello,

it depends on which CA license the material is licensed under.

The legal FAQ clarifies it for some of them:
http://www.apache.org/legal/resolved.html

For Creative Commons Share Alike 2.5/3.0 it says:
"Unmodified media under the Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike 2.5 and
Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike 3.0 licenses may be included in Apache products, subject to the licenses attribution clauses which may require LICENSE/NOTICE/README changes. ...."

Is that the license wikipedia is licensed under?

Hi,
We would like to check in some derived features/models from Wikipedia into the

We couldn't find  it in the approved 3rd party list:

Subject: checking in wiki

Hi team,
I'm just about ready to check in the wikipedia small index and the new coref 
features and models that take advantage of them, and I want to verify what 
changes we need to make to the license/notice to allow this in the next 
release.  The NOTICE section has the dependent software included -- is it 
sufficient to add something like this:

     This product includes contents adapted from the English-language
     Wikipedia (en.wikipedia.org) developed under the Creative Commons
     Attribution-ShareAlike 3.0 License
     (http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0/).

Thanks
Tim
