Yes, see http://www.apache.org/dev/release.html#distribute-other-artifacts If properly tracking the licenses of all the dependencies included in such a composite artifact is too much effort, you can always *not* publish the artifact. Just leave it up to downstream users to compile it and thus have them take over responsibility of properly managing the licensing status in case they want to redistribute the resulting artifacts. > A quick check shows that neither Hadoop, nor HBase. nor Whirr > (recently with a an incubator release) do not do this. Then these projects have some work to do. Can you file issues with these projects referring the above link and this email thread?
