Right, when I spoke with Dale and Will at ApacheCon, one of the points that
I made was that they only had a binary distribution which included their
transitive dependencies (individual JARs weren't downloadable).  If they
didn't have that binary dist, and instead just used maven coordinates, they
could eliminate the licensing/notices on that artifact by that artifact
simply not existing.
