thanks for reviewing apache-jena, much appreciated. If you have more time on
your hands I would also appreciate a review of libmarc4j-java, libodfdom-java,
librdfa-java, libwikidata-toolkit-java and openrefine. They all belong together
and currently I'm stuck with a project which I can't continue without them.

I believe the acknowledgement is the NOTICE file in the root directory which we
install into /usr/share/doc/libapache-jena-java already. We have never copied
the content verbatim into d/c but installed the NOTICE file instead. There is
also a Lintian tag for it. Everything stated in this NOTICE file is for
informational purposes as stated in the Apache Lincence paragraph 4 d)

        The contents of the NOTICE file are for informational purposes only
and
        do not modify the License.

Some of the source material was developed by other parties but they granted
their work to the Apache Software Foundation, so the copyright holder is the
Apache Software Foundation.

Indeed the DAWG and DAWG-Final directories are licensed under the W3C Software
license. I have corrected this issue and re-uploaded the package to unstable.
