Hi Pierre,

Thanks for tackling this.

Happy to help on that in the PRs.

To be clear, we need LICENSE/NOTICE at root level (for source
repository/distribution), and in the artifacts we distribute.
If we don't plan to distribute some subfolder, there's no need to
create LICENSE/NOTICE/DISCLAIMER there (it should be already covered
by the root one).

BUT, the root LICENSE/NOTICE have to be exhaustive, documenting
everything that need to be documented in the subfolders.

Regards
JB
