I would also encourage searching the Sakai code base for Creative Commons
BY licenses that require attribution of some sort:


   -

   *Attribution* -- You must give appropriate
credit<https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/2.0/#>,
   provide a link to the license, andindicate if changes were
made<https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/2.0/#>.
   You may do so in any reasonable manner, but not in any way that suggests
   the licensor endorses you or your use.

A quick search and I see a jqueryFileTree for SiteStats and fff-sprites in
reference/library.
