Hi Henri,
thanks for taking care of this.
IANAL but technically yes I think that the OAuth 2.0 part of Amber can be considered as a

Before to perform the first release we followed what has been suggested in LEGAL-134.
Did we miss something? Should we do something more or we can assume this legal issue is over?
Thanks and regards
Antonio
