Re: [android-developers] Third-parties libraries license

2012-08-12 Thread Sergio Panico
Sure, but I thought that my doubt is faced to anyone have developed an 
application that uses Google Map library. Moreover, I don't refer to my 
specific case but to a general purpose practice that, i believe, an android 
developer more experienced than me should manage as well.

In any case, i'm sorry if I don't have exposed my doubt in the proper way.

Best regards

[android-developers] Third-parties libraries license

2012-08-11 Thread Sergio Panico
Hi all,
just a legal question.

Anyone know what is the best practice to avoid legal issue in using third 
party libraries?
For my understanding, the app should foresee a section (usually the about 
or information screens) where all the 3rd parties library and/or 
trademarks are attributed to their respective owner with some copyright 
notes (for example: Google, Android, Google Maps are registered trademark 
of Google Inc. [3rd-Lib] is property of [3rd party company name]. All other 
registered trademarks or trademarks are property of their respective 
owners. All rights reserved.)

What i'm wondering is if this note is enought, or there should be an 
explicit reference to the license of the library used? (for example, see 
Google+ App, in the section Settings  About Google+  Open souce 
licenses). In this case what is the license for the addon Google Maps API 
16 (maps.jar, com.google.android.maps)?

Thanks a lot
Bye
Sergio
