Jason Dillon commented on GERONIMO-2411:
----------------------------------------

I believe this is another fundamental flaw with Maven.

The official release of a product like Geronimo is always the zip/tgz, never 
the artifacts which are pushed to some transient repository (and yes they are 
all transient since they keep falling down and loosing stuff).

Since everything in Maven is an artifact, then essentially our use of Maven 
makes every file in Geronimo a release distribution... and really don't think 
that is appropriate.  Either the ASF guides need to be updated to reflect mvn 
usage, or we need to stop using maven.

> Add NOTICE and LICENSE files to CAR, WAR and EAR artifacts
