I've raised it on legal-discuss. Has the following option been
considered to satisfy the "... and include the License file at
glassfish/bootstrap/legal/LICENSE.txt.":

Include that LICENSE.txt file separately from the project's LICENSE
file in a directory called glassfish/bootstrap/legal directory within
the jar/zip AND include the CDDL only in the project's LICENSE file
located at the root of the zip.

Cheers,
Jeremy
