Justin Mclean commented on CASSANDRA-18969:
-------------------------------------------
Looking at the latest PRs it's hard to know what the intent is here. A reminder
that only things that are included/bundled in a release need to be mentioned in
LICENSE and NOTICE. So in general, transitive dependencies don't need to be
mentioned in LICENSE or NOTICE. You may require different LICENSE and NOTICE
files for a source release and a binary convenience release as the contents of
the release are different. See
https://infra.apache.org/licensing-howto.html#guiding.
