The standard practice has been drifting in incubator-land. When I brought this up previously, I was told a few things,
1) the notices required by BSD like licenses apparently should appear in the LICENSE file. 2) notices in the source distribution only need to include things that are included in the source distro 3) notices in the binary distribution should include the things included in the binary distro (clearly many more than in the source distro) 4) maven references from a pom do not invoke a requirement for notices in the source distro. So, If you are talking about the source distribution, this isn't a problem. If you are talking about notices that actually are in the LICENSE file instead of the NOTICE file, this isn't a problem. If you are saying that the notices aren't in the LICENSE file in the binary distro, there is a huge problem (partly because I looked there and found them). My guess is that your next comment and mine as well is that it is really hard to keep track of these requirements as they shift over time.
