Sparkle

license/copyright requirements

Asked by rj

Thank you very much for Sparkle. The framework and documentation are first-rate.

I have included Sparkle in an application that I am building for a client, but I want to be sure we're meeting all the licensing requirements and giving credit where credit is due. What (if any) licensing/copyright information needs to be displayed to the application's end user? I recall seeing things in the "About Box" of some Mac applications I've used in the past, but I can't find anything in other applications that supposedly use Sparkle.

Sorry if this has been addressed in the documentation, but I can't find it anywhere.

You don't have to put the information in the about box, you just have to include it with your app's documentation somewhere. For some, the about box is most convenient; for others, a readme or licensing information RTF.
