I have a question about the Apache license....I'm trying to understand if an end user must accept the Apache license if I use a library under it in my software. I do understand that I cannot remove the license from the module source, but I'm not sure what needs to provided to the actual software user.
- belorn 13y agoPrimarily, the license need to be provided to the software user. No user need to accept the license, as it only impact those who redistribute the work. If the user redistribute the work, then they are also bound by the license. Additionally, If you are distributing any source material (images, source code and so on), then any modified file need to include a notices stating that the file has changed. You may also not remove copyright, patent, trademark, and attribution notices in said files. If the Work includes a "NOTICE" text file (also any credit buttons with similar content), you may not remove it. Thats about it.
