Hi Kevan,

Many thanks for looking at this and pointing out these issues. I'll cancel
this vote, and try again.

Regarding point 4 - pretty much all of the content in the LICENSE and NOTICE
files is the same as the files in OpenEJB itself, as the dependencies are
the same. Presumably that means we have potentially the same issue with
OpenEJB itself (
https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/openejb/trunk/openejb3/assembly/openejb-standalone/src/main/resources/NOTICE.txtfor
example)?
