> This should be continually happening anyway, but immediately prior to each 
> release we need to verify that our license situation is in order. This issue 
> should not ever be closed, rather just move the "Fix for Version" on to the 
> next release.
> Here are some of the tasks:
> A) Ensure that all supporting libraries have a corresponding license. 
> Basically every jar file or other external package needs to have a 
> *.license.txt file. Ensure that any license conditions are met, e.g. for some 
> we must add an entry to NOTICE.txt, while for some others we must not. 
> Remember to abide by the ASF guidelines (e.g. nothing more restrictive than 
> the Apache License).
> B) Scan the whole trunk repository to add missing ASF license headers to 
> source files and to ensure that the ASF license headers have not been 
> accidently added to external files. See etc/relicense.txt
