-1. I notice at least a couple issues with license files. I used "meld" on
3.4.14 to compare it to 3.4.13.

in "lib" directory
* the file "jline-0.9.94.LICENSE.txt" has gone missing (and there is no
license file within the jar itself)
* jsr305 and spotbugs-annotations jars have been added. Neither of those
files have license files included in the tar, nor are they in the jar.

In particular when I look at jsr305 I see a potential issue including it at
all, see some of the jiras here:
http://bit.ly/2Xl7aSn
notice that hbase, giraph, and others have removed this library. It's not
clear, e.g.
https://github.com/findbugsproject/findbugs/issues/128
whether this can be included based on the limited research I've done so
far. (I didn't look into spotbugs-annotations license situation at all)

Do we need to include these libraries at all in the production release?
(they are just used for specific testing modes, no?) If so are there any
requirements wrt updating the notice file.

Please use "meld" to review further - afaict I got them all but it would be
good for someone to explicitly check.

Do we know why the tars are significantly different sizes? (nearly 10%)
-rw-r--r--  1 phunt  staff  37191810 Jul 15  2018 zookeeper-3.4.13.tar.gz
-rw-r--r--@ 1 phunt  staff  39105474 Feb 23 12:55 zookeeper-3.4.14.tar.gz

Is it also expected that the number of files included has dropped
dramatically?
