I recently found out about the maven-remote-resources-plugin with is pretty good at inserting the required legal files in the artifacts created in a maven project, and I started looking at the NOTICE.txt file in at least some of the apacheds modules and it looks odd to me:

Apache Directory Daemon
Copyright 2007 The Apache Software Foundation

This product includes software developed at
The Apache Software Foundation (http://www.apache.org/).
>> so far so good
This product uses JUnit (http://junit.org/).
>> not at runtime it doesn't and AFAIK we arent distributing test artifacts??
This product includes a distribution of NLOG4J
(http://www.slf4j.org/nlog4j/).
>>the module jars don't include nlog4j so this is wrong for most artifacts. I think this claim should only be in the aggregates that actually do include nlog4j

I'd be happy to fix up the build to use maven-remote-resources plugin but someone should check the results.

thanks
