For the record, I've removed some irrelative dependencies in the POSSIBLE-NOTICES-FOR-BIN-DIST, which are 'autoprefixer', 'query-string' and 'weex-picker', since we haven't used this packages as dependencies for a while. I also fixed the repo url for weex-vue-render. Adam, can you checkout the pr here: https://github.com/apache/incubator-weex/pull/1204 ?
