[LLVMdev] LLVM for Java

I'm working on a Java implementation of portions of LLVM and have a 
question about licensing.   The project won't contain any LLVM source 
code although I can foresee using JNI stubs that link against LLVM 
libraries.  It does however in many cases follow LLVM APIs.  From my 
understanding of the University of Illinois/NCSA license this means:

1.  I need to include the copyright notice in the documentation
2.  I'm can release the project under any license I want provided its 
compatible with inclusion of the LLVM copyright

Please let me know if I'm understanding this correctly, I should provide 
more info and/or there are any considerations I've missed.  If anyone is 
interested in the project please don't hesitate to contact me.  I would 
be especially grateful to anyone with experience releasing open source 
software that wouldn't mind receiving an email here and there.  Thanks.
