The link you reference puts this jar in the public domain and no LICENSE update is required. > sbt-launch.jar -- has 4 license files -- license, licenses/LICENSE_Scala, > licenses/LICENSE_Apache, licenses/LICENSE_JLine (2 are missing from your > LICENSE) > hadoop -- has a unique license for the org.apache.hadoop.util.bloom.* classes. Thanks for pointing these out. I'm certain that no project with lots of dependencies updates its LICENSE every time it takes an update.

Before spending hours crawling through every dependency, can someone point to the documentation requiring that the top-level LICENSE file contain the transitive closure of all code redistributed through the artifact? -C --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: general-unsubscr...@incubator.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: general-h...@incubator.apache.org
