> What external code has been bundled with the source? To me it look like the
> NOTICE file may be referring to a binary release not the source release? For
> example it mentions antlr in the NOTICE file but I can't find any antlr code
> in the source release. As antlr is BSD does it even need to be in NOTICE
> file? It's may be that all source files have had their headers changed to
> ALv2?
> I also not the use of some fonts (from http://glyphicons.com?) and while they
> are included in the NOTICE but I'm not sure how they have been licensed. If
> it the free version and if so have the terms of the license met? [1]
> NOTICE file is incorrect; it must not have the following header:
> =========================================================================
> == NOTICE file corresponding to the section 4 d of ==
> == the Apache License, Version 2.0, ==
> == in this case for the Apache Falcon distribution. ==
> =========================================================================
> Also the NOTICE file must ONLY contain required notices for files that
> are actually in the enclosing distribution.
> As such, the entries headed "This product includes/uses" are wrong;
> only *included* bits are relevant when determining what must go in the
> NOTICE file.
> The LICENSE file should specify the versions of the included software,
> because licenses may change between versions.
> Again, only included code should be referenced.
