I'm not a legal expert, so this is not legal advice. I also cannot speak on behalf of Eloston or the ungoogled-chromium project. That being said, my understanding of the license is that a link would not work. You would need to include the full text of the license. For the third clause, there is an answer here that explains that you should be fine so long as you don't imply that the project is endorsed by ungoogled-chromium or it's contributors. Hopefully someone with more expertise on the matter can offer further insight for you! |

I'd like to make a docker image of ug-chromium similar to jlesage/docker-firefox where the gui is accessed via a browser. I was looking over the license in the repo and had a few questions (I'm new a very much a noob when it comes to open source licensing so I want to make sure I'm doing this correctly).
The 2nd clause states:
Redistributions in binary form must reproduce the above copyright notice, this list of conditions and the following disclaimer in the documentation and/or other materials provided with the distribution.
Is having a link to the ug-chroimium license in my readme sufficient, or would i need to include the license file within the docker image?I'm a little confused by the 3rd clause:
Neither the name of the copyright holder nor the names of its contributors may be used to endorse or promote products derived from this software without specific prior written permission.
Am I allowed to call my docker image something like "Ungoogled Chromium Docker", or do I need to call it something else?I would greatly appreciate any clarification or information on this, thanks!
