----------------------------------------

Guillaume,
Please note the following paragraph from the url you provided:

"If the distribution also contains source files not owned by the ASF, such as 
third-party libraries, then be sure to leave their licenses intact. In some 
cases, you may want to ask the author(s) of third-party code to relicense it 
under the 2.0 license, since that will simplify the distribution. Otherwise, 
you should append their license(s) to the LICENSE file at the top of the 
distribution, or at least put a pointer in the LICENSE file to the third-party 
license. In all cases, be sure to obey the licensing constraints of the 
original author. If that is not possible, then do not redistribute their work."

Also, note http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/httpd/httpd/trunk/LICENSE as a 
reference. Let me know if you still think the LICENSE.txt file is incorrect...

> Place required attrtibutions in the NOTICES.txt file or a license included in 
> the LICENSE.txt file
