I think it is okay to handle it like this but I would like to stress one point (again). The point why we need a NOTICE file is out of legal reasons. This file is ONLY meant for such legal requirements. It does not matter how useful you find it to list things. There is no problem to have other files for such things. But please do not misuse the NOTICE - that's the whole point. Just be prepared that other people at the ASF may have a very strong opinion about this. But, as I said (and Andy), from my experience it should be okay like this. -- Fabian http://twitter.com/fctwitt
