mrutkows opened a new issue #871: Create Markdown describing LICENSE file 
creation process
URL: https://github.com/apache/incubator-openwhisk-wskdeploy/issues/871
 
 
   We need to capture our own rules/policies, conventions and procedures for 
creating LICENSE file for any repo. under the Apache OpenWhisk project.
   
   It should include how we handle well-known exception procesess (e.g., 
copy-left, etc.) with examples for MIT/Google, etc, type licenses, as well as 
create a TEMPLATE file that has sections to fill out that includes (our 
conventions):
   
   - Link back to the process page (that I am suggesting we create using this 
issue)
   - Sections for 1) listing source LICENSE exceptions 2) listing Binary file 
exceptions
   
   where the "binary" exception list clearly states "these are binary library 
dependencies" that we do not copy into source and do not alter the code for.
   
   Also, each license we list or copy should have a clear SEPARATOR, for example
   
   # 
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
   
   So readers can easily see where one license stops and another starts (when 
they are copied in by requirements).
