Eric Evans commented on CASSANDRA-371:
--------------------------------------

A fair amount of discussion took place during and after the vote for 
0.4.0-beta1, and in a separate (but related) discussion that followed.

http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg22150.html
http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg22207.html

Consensus in these discussions was that all license information should be 
included *in* LICENSE.txt, and attributions for all software that requires it 
should be in NOTICE.txt.

This was reenforced by a link to an existing document, and incubator 
documentation was updated to reflect this opinion.

http://incubator.apache.org/guides/releasemanagement.html#best-practice-license

> LICENSE.txt should mention lib/licenses
