Hi Brent,
the license of JBehave is BSD-style license - a rather standard and
liberal license.
It means that you cannot provide a product or consulting service and
claim it is on behalf of the JBehave project or its contributors.
It does allow you to build on top of JBehave extension tools or other
services, provided you give proper credit to the upstream libraries you
use for your tool or service.
We can discuss it in more detail offline if you want.
Cheers

Hi Everyone,
Who would I contact to talk about the license of JBehave? The license
specifically states:
|Neither the name of JBehave nor the names of its contributors may
be used to endorse or promote products derived from this software
without specific prior written permission.|
What we are trying to do is offer Selenium Automation consulting
services to to other companies using different automation framework
tools, including JBehave.
We simply want to say we will help you get started with automation. We
have some pre-built examples they can pull from, and let them pick
from this list of different tools, then we would help them implement
some tests. JBehave is one of the tools we want to offer help with to
get started. Is this allowed? Or can we get the written permission to
use JBehave's name?
Thanks!
