Add source-style LICENSE and NOTICE files at "root"s of UIMA
------------------------------------------------------------
Key: UIMA-860
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/UIMA-860
Project: UIMA
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Build, Packaging and Test
Reporter: Marshall Schor
The legal wiki seems to be converging to a concensus around having LICENSE and
NOTICE files at the "root" of projects in SVN (underneath "trunk"). There was
a lot of discussion about this from our previous release attempt.
There are multiple kinds of LICENSE and NOTICE files - those for our "source"
distributions (which are pretty simple), and those for our binary ones (which,
because these sometimes include other projects, have more complex versions -
see
http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/incubator/uima/sandbox/trunk/uima-as/uima-as-distr/src/main/readme
for instance).
To conform to this emerging Apache convention, put the "source" style of
licenses beneath the "trunk" directory in our SVN (we have at least 2 of these
- one for the main branch, and one for the sandbox.) Also put at top level
(the level containing the projects) in uima-as - there is a "collection"
directory for all the uima-as projects.
