zabetak opened a new pull request, #3510:
URL: https://github.com/apache/calcite/pull/3510

   The NOTICE file contains the following statement:
   ```
   The web site includes files generated by Jekyll.
   ```
   However, there is nothing in the LICENSE of Jekyll, that requires such 
attribution.
   
   According to the instructions of composing the NOTICE file for ASF projects 
we shouldn't add anything in there that is not legally required.
   
   Moreover the generated files are not necessary licensed under the same 
LICENSE with the generator.
   
   JavaCC, ANTLR, and lots of other source generators use a variety of licenses 
but the generated output is not licensed under the same terms. For instance, 
Calcite uses JavaCC, which is licensed under BSD-3 but both the grammar as well 
as the generated .java files are AL2.
   
   As long as we are not packaging bits of Jekyll in Calcite there is no need 
to add explicit mentions in LICENSE or NOTICE files.
