snleee commented on issue #3722: Update LICENSE and NOTICE files URL: https://github.com/apache/incubator-pinot/pull/3722#issuecomment-456516171 > My take is if it's MIT license it needs not be included: > http://www.apache.org/dev/licensing-howto.html > http://www.apache.org/dev/licensing-howto.html#permissive-deps > https://www.apache.org/legal/resolved.html#required-third-party-notices @felixcheung @kishoreg ``` Bundling a dependency which is issued under one of the following licenses is straightforward, assuming that said license applies uniformly to all files within the dependency: BSD (without advertising clause) MIT/X11 In LICENSE, add a pointer to the dependency's license within the distribution and a short note summarizing its licensing: This product bundles SuperWidget 1.2.3, which is available under a "3-clause BSD" license. For details, see deps/superwidget/. ``` It seems that the pointer is needed for BSD, MIT licenses. The example above has the link pointer to the full license `deps/superwiget`. Am I reading this incorrectly? As long as we don't violate the license issue, I can go ahead for removing copied license files from `/licenses` for BSD, MIT.
