Maybe there was a misunderstanding but I have never said that this list should be included as NOTICE. In [1] it says: "The remainder of the NOTICE file is to be used for required third-party notices.". Listing the included third-party libs is not such a required notice, according to [2]. [1] http://www.apache.org/legal/src-headers.html [2] http://apache.org/legal/resolved.html#required-third-party-notices I would put the list of modules in a DEPENDENCY or MODULES file or something similar. But, as I said, for this release it should be okay and something to be fixed in future releases. -- Fabian http://twitter.com/fctwitt
