I didn't notice (no pun intended) at the time, but the other quote is actually contradicted too: > As a contrast "Applying the Apache License, Version > 2.0" ( http://apache.org/dev/apply-license.html ) says > "Apache projects MUST include correct NOTICE documents in > every distribution." The other page you linked has: "NOTICE file 0. Every Apache distribution should include a NOTICE file in the top directory, along with the standard LICENSE file." As such I don't think the website can be taken as definitive grounds to proceed or not, and recommend that if you are absolutely against running the script right now the one last time required to get rid of the issue, then we need to simply take this to legal-discuss to get a definitive answer from a human before distributing it.
