Hi Felix and Kishore,

Can you guys confirm that if I can remove copied license files for MIT, BSD
based on http://www.apache.org/dev/licensing-howto.html#permissive-deps ?

My understanding from the above document is that for MIT, BSD dependencies,
it is sufficient to add pointers in LICENSE file.

However, I'm a bit confused given that the example actually points the full
license

This product bundles SuperWidget 1.2.3, which is available under a
"3-clause BSD" license.  For details, see *deps/superwidget/.*


As long as we don't violate the license issue, I can go ahead of removing
copied license files in "/licenses" for MIT, BSD related libaries.

Best,
Seunghyun
