something that can be deferred.
IMO this is a requirement.  Just have a look at some of the licenses for 
components we are redistributing.

I have collated a list of components attached to a file in 
http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GERONIMO-2112 indicating whether 
IMHO they require an attribution in the NOTICES.txt file or a license 
included in the LICENSE.txt file and where to get the information from.
There are some that require further investigation as IMNAL.  Can people 
please look at the file attached to GERONIMO-2112 and see if there are 
any obvious omissions/errors and comment on the items requiring further 
investigation.

If someone has time to pick it up from and start assembling the 
LICENSE.txt and NOTICE.txt files, please do, otherwise I'll continue in 
the morning (Sydney time).


John,
I am also investigating.  I suspect jdom and castor may also need to be 
added to the list..  Will make an initial pass at the files and attach 
them to GERONIMO-2112.. Of course IANAL.. :)

Thanks
