---------------------------------------

Henry provided these comments so far via some private communication, which I 
post here:
<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<
Hi, Brian.  Regarding XALANJ-2358, I have a couple of comments.  
1) The copy of the ASF 2.0 license that appears in LICENSE.txt
should not include the Appendix.

2) I think it would be easier to read if the text of the licenses were
somehow strongly delimited (with a line of equals signs, say).

3) The start of the license text for BCEL is missing - just comment lines, 
but it looks odd.
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

I'm going to replace LICENSE.txt which I have attached to this issue with an 
updated one
that addresses these comments.

> The xalan-j_2_7_1-bin.zip has a top level directory of  xalan-j_2_7_1  (this 
> is OK)
> 1) In this directory the Apache NOTICE and LICENSE files are missing.  
> It is true that in the licenses subdirectory we have xalan.LICENSE.txt with 
> the right contents, but it is in the wrong directory with a wrong base file 
> name (same for NOTICE).
> 2) For serializer.jar xalan.jar xsltc.jar (if they are packaged) we should 
> have:
> NOTICE.serializer.jar.txt
> LICENSE.serializer.jar.txt
> LICENSE.xalan.jar.txt
> NOTICE.xalan.jar.txt
> LICENSE.xstlc.jar.txt
> LICENSE.xsltc.jar.txt
> (these are already in the liceneses directory with the wrong names).
> 3) For other jars we should have NOTICE.<jarname>.txt and 
> LICENSE.<jarname>.txt where possible
> 4) the various readme files should be deleted and any relevant information 
> should be moved into the corresponding 
> NOTICE.<jarname>.txt file. For example xalan.README.txt should be deleted, 
> which contains this:
> -----------------------------------------------------
> xalan.jar - Xalan-Java 2 - XSLT Processor.
> Source:               http://xml.apache.org
> See the following files for licenses and attribution notices that apply to 
> xalan.jar:
>   licenses/xalan.LICENSE.txt
>   licenses/xalan.NOTICE.txt
>   licenses/BCEL.LICENSE.txt
>   licenses/regexp.LICENSE.txt
>   licenses/runtime.LICENSE.txt
> -----------------------------------------------------
> So lines like these shoud be added to NOTICE.xalan.jar.txt:
> -----------------------------------------------------
> See the following files for licenses and attribution notices that apply to 
> xalan.jar:
>   LICENSE.bcel.txt
>   LICENSE.regexp.txt
>   LICENSE.runtime.txt
>   NOTICE.serializer.txt
>   LICENSE.serializer.txt
> -----------------------------------------------------
> ... of course in the 2 jar distribution the attribution to regexp and runtime 
> need not be there.
