Jukka Zitting commented on COMPRESS-72:
---------------------------------------

Do we have trails for the BZip2 and CPIO contributions?

> Move acknowledgements from NOTICE to README

>                 Key: COMPRESS-72
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COMPRESS-72
>             Project: Commons Compress
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>            Reporter: Jukka Zitting
>            Priority: Minor
>
> The NOTICE.txt file in commons-compress contains the following entries:
>     Original BZip2 classes contributed by Keiron Liddle
>     <[email protected]>, Aftex Software to the Apache Ant project
>     Original Tar classes from contributors of the Apache Ant project
>     Original Zip classes from contributors of the Apache Ant project
>     Original CPIO classes contributed by Markus Kuss and the jRPM project
>     (jrpm.sourceforge.net)
> It's good that we acknowledge contributions, but having those entries in the 
> NOTICE file is not appropriate unless the licensing of the original 
> contributions explicitly required such attribution notices.
> I suggest that we move these entries to a README.txt file.
