Notice requirements in open source licenses aren't usually complicated, but they can be an enormous headache. The more complex the product, and the less it looks like application software, the more difficult it is to apply notices consistently and rationally and still be compliant. Companies use a lot of different practices, most of which are a compromise of some sort. Coming up with a notice procedure takes knowledge of open source requirements, but also common sense and a practical approach.
