Proper attribution in an SDK

[pauldambra]

I've a colleague who won't consider using otto because the license requires attribution. We produce an SDK that will be used by others and can't insist on attribution in their app.

I thought a NOTICE file in the SDK was suitable but he thinks not.

Which of us is correct? Or if we're both wrong is there a correct thing to do?

Thanks (apologies if this is the wrong place to ask)

You will have to consult with a lawyer on your end on what you can or cannot do.

Not only are we (the developers) of this library ill-equipped to answer the question, but any statements we make might undermine or implicitly alter the license that has been applied. This is especially important to avoid since a large chunk of the code is actually copied from Guava which we do not have the rights for altering its license. Sorry I can't be of more help.

Ah, so Otto has the Apache license because it is copied in from Guava?

Thanks...
