Coming from the Trademarks side I could agree to a certain extent. Looking at it from a user perspective, though, I disagree. Consider this: Anne is interested in Sling and goes to sling.apache.org and sees the License link. Fine, she has to check the license anyway, so lets do it right away. But what's the license ? She's not interested in the license history or any contributor stuff, she just wants to learn about the applicable license. Hence, I think TLP pages should really point to the actual license page not the license overview page.
