Usually these modified BSD/MIT/X/etc licenses are just fine. We do have to review anything added or removed to make sure they don't require anything of the software user that the Apache 2.0 license doesn't require, considering that attribution and such which is fine (and what the NOTICE file is for).

If it is different then yes, it has to be added to the LICENSE file (and if applicable corresponding entries in the NOTICE file).

Thanks for taking a pass at this, and feel free to ask for help as there are various who have been through this many times.

I have finished up a work for import/export vCard in sfa (
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ-1649) using a jpim project
distributed under a BSD license.
This license can be reached through http://jpim.sourceforge.net/license.html
.

In above license I am confused with the statement "jpim is released under a
modified BSD style license.".
Is this modified license is different from the one that is already in OFBiz
LICENSE file.
Is there any need to add this license.

I think the jpim binary can be placed under applications/marketing/lib
instead of framework libs.

Please suggest.

Thank You,
Vikas
