Re: ASL and source code examples

2003-04-04 Thread Erik Hatcher
I followed the lead that I saw in Core J2EE Patterns book and had 
Manning simply print the ASL on a single page in the back of the book.  
All the code in the book was originally written by Steve and I, but 
some of it was donated to Ant itself and is now under the ASL, so I 
figured it was the "right" thing to do by putting the license in the 
book as well.

as pertains to including portions of the Vlib source code in the book? 
 Do I
have to maintain that long ASL copyright message in the listings or 
just
provide a general notice that all the examples as covered under the

this usage covered under some kind of "fair use" clause (or generally
accepted practice)?
