kalyan kumar kalvagadda commented on SENTRY-2081:
-------------------------------------------------
[~spena] Hadoop does something similar. In hadoop, license.txt file is updated
with all the licenses of the jar that it distributes in the same file but what
we did is bit different doing but exactly what
[https://www.apache.org/dev/licensing-howto.html] says.

In LICENSE, add a pointer to the dependency's license within the distribution
and a short note summarizing its licensing:
This product bundles SuperWidget 1.2.3, which is available under a
"3-clause BSD" license. For details, see deps/superwidget/.

[~coheig]'s comment was pretty general and has nothing to do with the
differences between 1.8 and 2.0. His concern was that sentry was not updating
any license information of the jars that sentry is distributing. That was the
case for all the sentry releases till date. :-)
