Hi

Just to clarify: I said that we don't need to document ASF dependencies in
the NOTICE because it's already covered by:

"
This product includes software developed at
The Apache Software Foundation (http://www.apache.org/).
"

However, we have to mention NOTICE for Apache (non ASF) dependencies.

I'm verifying the release right now.

Regards
JB
