I think so and java/LICENSE or php/LICENSE should contain additional licenses (specific for the impl) > NOTICE contains notice of licensed code actually contained within the > subtree, *not* dependencies that might be pulled (eg portions of this code > base were donated/are license etc ) IIUC NOTICE should include dependencies directly included in the distribution. For instance, php/NOTICE should contain something like "This product includes software (Zend) developed by Zend Technologies Ltd (http://framework.zend.com/)." For the java side, war\META-INF\DEPENDENCIES is enough in my mind. Our mentor could confirm my understanding. > README is informative.

(some LGPL... is that Ok at Apache?... distributing > an LGPL lib in binary form, with links to the source) LGPL is not ASL compatible. Which library? It is a major issue for the release. Vincent
