Hi,

I've looked into this release, and I've a couple of comments:
- first the NOTICE file does not follow the format generally used for Felix 
projects which means that automatic or semi-automatic checking tools failed.
- then, the embedded EDU.oswego.cs.dl.util.concurrent package should also be 
cited in the license. The work 'partially' comes from Sun which means that some 
parts was made directly at oswego. It would be nice to cite them under the same 
license term.

We are still straightening this out, but we are told that the NOTICE file should only include references to licenses that require NOTICE. So, if we are going to follow that rule from now on, then I guess Oswego doesn't require it, but the Sun portion does.

We had looked into automating this at one time (Felix!), but I think it wasn't completely successful. At any rate, we should likely start following this approach for future releases, but we never did decide if were were going to have a separate acknowledgments file for other dependencies or just don't mention them at all.

- despite it's obvious the 'Licensed under the Apache License 2.0.' is missing 
for the software developed at the ASF.

I'm not sure these issues are blocking the release, but it would be useful to 
fix them in the next versions.

Regards,

Clement
