All distributions (source and binary) need to include NOTICE file
-----------------------------------------------------------------

         Key: JDO-386
         URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JDO-386
     Project: JDO
        Type: Bug

  Components: tck20, api20  
    Versions: JDO 2 final    
    Reporter: Craig Russell
     Fix For: JDO 2 maintenance release 1


The distributions need to include a NOTICE file in the same directory as the 
LICENSE file. Both the source and binary distributions need this file.

For details, see http://www.apache.org/dev/apply-license.html#new summarized as 
follows:

"A NOTICE file should be included in the same directory as the LICENSE file. 
The NOTICE should include only those attribution notices that are required by 
any part of the entire distribution. For Apache projects and those 
redistributing ASF software, the NOTICE file must contain the sentence:

   This product includes software developed by
   The Apache Software Foundation (http://www.apache.org/).
The license is applied to each source file (code and documentation, but 
excluding the LICENSE and NOTICE files) by including a short copyright notice 
at the top, as demonstrated by the boilerplate notice provided in the appendix."

I've filed this under tck20 and api20 but it applies to all Apache 
distributions.
