I would not call these role models or any where near, but for Apache Airavata, we spent months during incubation to get the L&N files right (thanks to our patient mentors). If useful here are the pointers: Source L&N files (essentially there are no third party sources bundled, hence ALV2 only): https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/airavata/trunk/LICENSE https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/airavata/trunk/NOTICE The binary distribution bundles a whole bunch of dependencies and we had to manually traverse through every bundled jar: https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/airavata/trunk/modules/distribution/airavata-server/src/main/resources/LICENSE https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/airavata/trunk/modules/distribution/airavata-server/src/main/resources/NOTICE Note: In recent past there have been more clarifications on NOTICE file needing to be even more minimalistic, we did not yet adhere to these policies yet. So recently released incubator projects might have better examples. Suresh > > One project that stood out to me was Cassandra.
