Let's take a look at two examples; I think they need to handled
differently.
== D3.js
This is minimized and has no license statement.
We don't want to imply it's Apache contributed code
I believe this needs a entry in NOTICE.
(an alternative might be to put a LICENSE/NOTCIE file in that directory -
not sure about that)
Neither am I. I am already sufficiently confused with legal issues :)
== Sgvizler.pack.js
This has a copyright license in the file so this is is definitely under the
http://www.apache.org/dev/**licensing-howto.html#mod-**notice<http://www.apache.org/dev/licensing-howto.html#mod-notice>
"it suffices to leave those notices in their original locations."
On the one hand, yes. On the other hand, the NOTICE needs to contain
pointers to the source code locations of 3rd party works:
http://www.apache.org/legal/3party.html#labeling
(see Source Access).
The Source Access is the main reason why these entries are in the NOTICE
file.
Marmotta uses falls under "Source Included"
(having a non-NOTICE file is possible as well)
