Whilst testing the geronimo eclipse plugin, eclipse prompted me to

This made me wonder whether this license has been included for
Geronimo (since we redistribute schema files) and it appears the
LICENSE.txt file in 1.1 doesn't contain it.
I'll add a JIRA for 1.1.1 if there aren't any objections.
Can anyone think of any other licenses or notices we may have
overlooked?
Yes. Would appreciate your thoughts on the following:
1) Fix LICENSE and NOTICE files for branches/1.1/modules/util
(currently they are only Bouncy Castle -- I believe that we have ASL
code in there, also).
I think we should do it
2) Do we need to add Bouncy Castle to our "global" LICENSE and NOTICE
files (i.e. branches/1.1/modules/scripts/src/resources/) ? I think yes.
3) Insure NOTICE files are included in our jar files (currently only
LICENSE files are there)
4) Do we need to add LICENSE/NOTICE files in our generated CARs?
5) Can the "global" LICENSE and NOTICE files be used in all our
generated artifacts (distributions, jars, cars)? Or do we need global
files and specific license/notice files for generated module jars and
car files?

2-4 should be run by legal, no?
To support #5, I hope we don't need some kind of maven magic.
