I didn't fully understand the NOTICE file until I had Roy walk me through its origins last ApacheCon. http://s.apache.org/jP The original "required attribution" was section 3 of the Apache license 1.1. https://www.apache.org/licenses/LICENSE-1.1 3. The end-user documentation included with the redistribution, if any, must include the following acknowledgment: "This product includes software developed by the Apache Software Foundation (http://www.apache.org/)." Alternately, this acknowledgment may appear in the software itself, if and wherever such third-party acknowledgments normally appear. The existence of that requirement in the ALv1.1 itself made it incompatible with the GPL, in that ALv1.1-licensed works could not be incorporated into an combined work licensed under the GPL. Moving it to the new NOTICE file spelled out in the ALv2 eliminated the incompatibility. The ALv1.1 also contains the following credit: Portions of this software are based upon public domain software originally written at the National Center for Supercomputing Applications, University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign.
