Is it ok to check in like that now and fix it for a release if legal tells us different?

Yup.  I think that is the one... Thanks for pointing the FAQ page Joern :).
Tim-
I believe we just need to add the blurb you had below into the NOTICE and 
append the below into the LICENSE (in both src and binary distribution) just 
like the other 3rd party libs.
(unless legal-discuss comes back with something else.)

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 src code base and would like to double check - are Creative
Commons Licenses compatible with ASL 2.0?

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

Thanks,

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
