That is right Michael. I had actually started writing a response wondering the same. There are various products at xml-commons. Should they all share the same NOTICE file. Anyway, we will start with one and perhaps later we can split it. I will start a NOTICE file at the top-level and people can add as they see fit. Norm can you please move to that. See an example file at http://www.apache.org/licenses/example-NOTICE.txt How should this file be used? At Apache Forrest we have only been adding to it when licensing conditions of the supporting product require attribution. --David > [1] > http://cvs.apache.org/viewcvs.cgi/xml-commons/java/src/org/apache/xml/resolver/Catalog.java?r1=1.14&r2=1.15&diff_format=h > > David Crossley <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote on 04/13/2005 11:24:39 PM: > > > Norman Walsh wrote: > > > I don't know how often the Commons work is packaged up for release, > > > but I'd sure appreciate feedback from others about the stability of > > > the new code before it gets shipped off in a real release. > > > > XML Commons Resolver can be shipped separately. > > That is what we did with the 1.1 version.
