I forgot to add the links: LICENSE/NOTICE content vs package content https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LEGAL-27 LICENSE/NOTICE and binary, source, javadocs, tests jars https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LEGAL-28 The next week it will be 1 year they have been filed. I did my duties. Also note that the number of NOTICE/LICENSE may be higher than 3 for each release because sometimes sources, binary, javadocs, test jars could have different LICENSE/NOTICE, expecially when the project include /extends source files from third party projects. So, sometimes you could end up with 5 or more NOTICE/LICENSE tuples to be mantained for a single release.
