...the incubator release docs mention having both LICENSE files and NOTICE files for libraries ... not sure what the difference is, but we only have a LICENSE file for xpp -- no NOTICE...
AFAIK there is one global NOTICE file for the project, see [1].
...do we have the apache licenese in a comment in every file? .. the release doc suggests we should, but i also seem to remember someone saying that policy had changed recently...
Also from [1]: files "without any degree of creativity" do not need the license header. ARAT is useful in checking for license headers, see http://code.google.com/p/arat/
... we could make our lives easier and do a "Source Only Release"...
(not sure if you're being ironic here;-) I don't think a source only release is appropriate for Solr. It's fine for tools aimed at software developers, but many Solr users will just want to use it out of the box. -Bertrand [1] http://www.apache.org/legal/src-headers.html
