Non-trivial; maintaining the meta-data needed to accurately generate the NOTICE file is likely to require more effort than writing the NOTICE file itself. Actually, this sounds like a case where the effort for any individual project outweighs the benefit of saving the time, but the total effort across many projects would make the effort somewhat worth while. In particular, something that enhances the communication between projects and between the author of the dependency and the users of that dependency would be very helpful. AFAICT, the only way to amortise the effort between projects is to have a shared register of NOTICE requirements for each dependency. (basically each unique license text). However, that is not sufficient - the NOTICE file must only include attributions for bits that are actually included in the artifact to which the NOTICE (and LICENSE) applies. That is something that is unique to each project, and may change between releases. Also as already mentioned, source attributions may sometimes be necessary. As such, this sounds like a great thing to add to maven. If it provided me with a way to look at all my dependencies and examine my notices file for missing acknowledgments, that would be helpful. Moreover, if there were a way for the community of users to upload sample acknowledgements and for the owners of such packages to reject or accept these acknowledgments, this would crowdsource the effort of approval. This is an ASF-specific requirement. I really don't see how crowd-sourcing this to people outside the ASF is going to help reduce effort. Also, only the ASF has a vested interest in getting this right. My guess is that since getting NOTIFICATIONS right is a largely one shot deal, it wouldn't be enough appeal to encourage somebody to actually implement the system, but it would certainly make one's life easier in small installments. - To unsubscribe, e-mail: general-unsubscr...@incubator.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: general-h...@incubator.apache.org

Thanks Matei and sebb. Starting a new thread and collecting the VOTEs all over again would be time consuming.

If discussion needs to continue at that point we can start a [DISCUSS] [RESULT] [VOTE] thread. Thanks for the catch on the different scope descriptions.

Re: [DISCUSS] [VOTE] Graduation of Apache Spark from the Incubator
I agree with Joe, voting on a moving target is not going to produce a result anyone can look back on and understand. Chris, you may be able to understand what is happening but I'm having trouble from my attempts to follow this thread. thanks david jencks On Feb 9, 2014, at 5:29 PM, Joseph Schaefer joe_schae...@yahoo.com wrote: Chris no offense but all we can do is vote on what you put in front of us. As soon as you realized that that document was a mess the vote should have been cancelled. Right now you have no clear picture of what each vote *means* because the thing we are supposed to be approving is in flux. Right now you have people voting on the subject on moral grounds, eg whether the project deserves to graduate, all mixed in with votes cast on technical objective grounds. The only way to fix this is with a fresh start IMO.

Starting a new thread and collecting the VOTEs all over again would be time consuming. So? I don't appreciate this tone -- what do you mean so? Better to than being confusing, as the current thread has become. The thread's not confusing to me at all -- The diligence to update the resolution to the specific Apache IDs has been performed by Matei, so that work is done.
