Serge Huber commented on UNOMI-8:
---------------------------------

2. (good to fix): the NOTICE file can be improved cleaned up:
- NOTICE has extra information. There is no need to add anything to NOTICE for 
MIT license software [1] or (usually) for Apache licensed software. [2] NOTICE 
needs to be keep small. [7]
- NOTICE may be missing information.  Hyperic Sigar contains a NOTICE file 
(which incorrectly lists MIT and Apache software). [12] It may be that some of 
these notices need to be added to NOTICE or LICENSE. [11]

3. We should:
- place artefacts in correct release area (dist.apache.org, not a big deal)
- no need for need for KEYS file inside artefact and in fact at that point it's 
too late to be of any real use.
- year is wrong in NOTICE file

Also for the binary convenience release:
- It is missing DISCLAIMER
- LICENSE and NOTICE are incorrect as:
 - NOTICE lists BSD and MIT software which should be in LICENSE
 - LICENSE is missing BSD/MIT and other bundled software
 - NOTICE includes software that is not bundled (e.g. junit + others)
 - NOTICE is probably missing item from bundled Apache license NOTICE files 
(e.g.karaf + others) [13]
