So 2/3 should be good.  I would like to know about the
toplink-essentials jar below, but we don't distribute it so not a
killer.

Also, in jdobackend:

./sandbox/jdobackend/lib/toplink-essentials.jar

strikes up a flag. Any idea to the license on that? I suspect we need
to make sure we don't distribute that.

We have copyright to:

Thomas Fuchs
Erik Bosrup
Sun Microsystems
David M Johnson (including in the outputed javadoc by the look of it)
BSquare
OpenSymphony
Geir Landr
Marty Haught
(and in xinhua)
  interactivetools.com
  dynarch.com
  Walter Zorn
 The PHP Group
  DTLink, LLC

None mentioned in the NOTICE.txt. A large number of them are from
javascript bits, but there are a lot in the source too.

My understanding is that we need to mention all of these in the
NOTICE.txt - but I'm also a bit worried by just how many of them are
there.

I'd like to see this fixed before a 3.1 release.

What's the status on this? Given that we're just pushing 3.0 out, can
we be working on this during the lull before it would seem sane to
push out 3.1?
