Better (for the binary) but I think it still needs a little work. As I said 
before we need seperate LICENSE and NOTCE files for the source and binary 
packages not one for both. See [1][2] for an explanation.

The binary is also several missing licenses as as I mentioned in my review RC2, 
these should be added to LICENSE.

While not strictly required it probably a good idea to also add the non ASF 
ALv2 licenses to LICENSE as they are misisng NOTICE files and thus it may be 
unclear who the copyright owner is.

From my RC2 review:
"The binary LICENSE and NOTICE will need some more work as it bundles a number 
of things that are not from the ASF, having multiple license or are Apache 
licensed. See [2] (notice that affects ours), [3] (not ASF apache software), 
[4] (multiple licenses), [5] (multiple licenses), [6] (non Apache license), [7] 
(non Apache license), [8] (notice file)., [9] (non Apache license).”

As far as I can see [3], [4], [5] and [9] haven’t been addressed, if you are 
unsure on how to deal with them or the above isn’t clear please ask and I’ll 
help.

Thanks,
Justin
