    This is in the license:
    
    > 2.  The end-user documentation included with the redistribution, if any, 
must
    >     include the following acknowlegement:
    >       "This product includes software developed by the
    >       Visigoth Software Society (http://www.visigoths.org/)."
    >     Alternately, this acknowlegement may appear in the software itself, 
if and
    > wherever such third-party acknowlegements normally appear.
    
    I would this include a "-notice" file, that in the end should end up in the 
apache NOTICE file. From my reading this is similar to the apache NOTICE file, 
that needs to be redistributed.

> Reviewing the software grant [1] provided with the first NetBeans code 
> donation, my understanding is that not all files found in that zip are 
> donated.
> The grant indicates that the contents of that file [2] ("Code File") are 
> donated "excluding any third-party and separately licensed material contained 
> within the Code File". 
> I don't think we can consider that code ready to release as is, due to the 
> uncertainty that this creates w.r.t to which files are donated and which are 
> not.
> The zip archive contains about 45'000 files.
> I see the following options:
> a) Review all files and include only those which are not "third-party and 
> separately licensed material". How such files are identified needs to be 
> defined and documented, either in scripts under version control or as a set 
> of rules. The review process must be documented and traceable, so that we can 
> go back to it if problems are found in the future.
> b) Get an updated grant which does not mention such exclusions.
> If someone sees other options please discuss here or on the NetBeans dev 
> list, referencing this ticket.
