yes, makes sense.
So I am clear, is this right ?
LICENSE just contains the ASL2 text as per the root LICENSE.
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 )
README is informative.
----
In which case the NOTICE for the war will need to be special as it
bundles a whole load of libraries. (some LGPL... is that Ok at
Apache?... distributing an LGPL lib in binary form, with links to the
source)

glad to help where I can.

Hi
I think we need to create/update N+R+L files for all sides ie java,
php. For instance,
java\NOTICE
java\README
java\LICENSE
php\NOTICE
php\README
php\LICENSE
The top level files \NOTICE, \LICENSE and \README will refer to the
sub level files or include all things.
WDYT?
Vincent
PS: @Ian thanks a lot for your help!

NOTICE varies from tgz to tgz and artifact to artifact. And will

For Java, Dependencies is probably a good source for this
information, but
presumably we should not be listing transitive dependencies, only
1st level
dependencies ?
If I am right, this is the remaining issue, and it sounds like
there needs
to be a NOTICE per artifact ?
WDYT.
Sorry, correction to that,
Looking at things like the 5.2.0 release of ActiveMQ-core,
NOTICE only contains the words
=================
Apache ActiveMQ
Copyright 2008 The Apache Software Foundation
This product includes software developed at
The Apache Software Foundation (http://www.apache.org/).
=================
and DEPENDENCIES lists all the dependencies.
So as far as the jars built by maven are concerned, if ActiveMQ 5.2
is good,
so is Shindig?
The war archive might be different since it really does contain all
the
jars.
