Hi， gejun， Let me explain it in more details：
1. The LICENSE file located under the root of repo, should mention its license content and plus all third party license also. For example , you can check https://github.com/apache/incubator-skywalking/blob/master/LICENSE You can notice that it includes MIT /BSD license also for its included component. 2. The NOTICE.txt located under the root of repo, will be used to mention its copyright has belonged to apache.org Here is one example by doris https://github.com/apache/incubator-doris/blob/master/NOTICE.txt 3. The Disclaimer file is used to describe its current status is under incubator. Here is one example https://github.com/apache/incubator-doris/blob/master/DISCLAIMER and another one: https://github.com/apache/incubator-skywalking/blob/master/DISCLAIMER These files will be bunded into the release source tarball, when user download and uncompress them, user can easily find the license, copyright owner, and current status. 发件人: Ge Jun <[email protected]> 答复: apache/incubator-brpc <reply+0133ec0e5b56e974956af9282822664841412c09d2b8264392cf0000000118b951b492a169ce197ae...@reply.github.com> 日期: 2019年4月1日 星期一 下午12:12 收件人: apache/incubator-brpc <[email protected]> 抄送: "Tan,Zhongyi" <[email protected]>, Author <[email protected]> 主题: Re: [apache/incubator-brpc] add NOTICE.txt to address copyright (#710) 1. 确认下为什么两个文件的后缀名不统一 2. 这两个文件和已有的LICENSE是什么关系 ― You are receiving this because you authored the thread.
