How's this for writing down the rules:

I'd rearrange the wording of the second paragraph:

All the licenses on all the files to be included within the package should be included, or at a minimum referenced (discouraged but acceptable for now), in the LICENSE document. This LICENSE file (courtesy of Apache HTTPD) is a good example. The Apache License is at the top of the LICENSE document. After that, the license for each non- Apache licensed component is included, along with a clear explanation of which files that license applies to.
