I agree with Ross, http://sling.apache.org/site/index.html is an example (though out of incubation now) where credit is given to the company which created the original code base (see "history" bit), with a nofollow link as Ross suggests. As long as you stick to facts, and use a nofollow link, I think that's perfectly fine. -Bertrand --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: general-unsubscribe@incubator.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: general-help@incubator.apache.org
