The notice file appears to have been introduced to deal with a deficiency tracked as Jira issue XBEAN-283.
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/XBEAN-283 My vote: +1 We can review the merits of that issue separately and if it turns out that it is decided to be redundant to have the notice file - we can note it and remove the file later. I don't think that it is necessary to hold up the release for something that has been unquestioned for nearly three years.
