Do you happen to have a link with more info on how such a clause would look like? That sounds really interesting.

I do not, but I bet you could find a bigger project that has a such a clause and ask them if you could copy it.

Thanks, I did find an example here:

> The Coppermine Dev Team requires as additional term of the license Coppermine comes with that modified versions of Coppermine conveyed to others should be marked in a reasonable way. Modified versions mustn't be conveyed to others under the same name as the original Coppermine release. Package name, source code and the output generated by the modified version should make it obvious for potential users that the modified version and the original Coppermine version that the modified version is based upon differ.

and a PDF talking a bit more about section 7 here: http://www.mmmtechlaw.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/03/PLI-Ope...

So I think i understand this a bit better now. Maybe this helps someone else too.
