Hi, I'll be honest, the email is a bit hard to follow so apologies if I'm missing a few things when responding.
- Your source and binary artifacts will implicitly have different LICENSE/NOTICE contents. Your source distribution should likely contain a copy of your binary LICENSE and NOTICE, but in different base locations, so that you can generate the proper binary release. - Is your RPM distribution any different than the regular binary distribution? Not many ASF projects directly distribute RPMs, but assuming the contents are the same, you should be able to use the exact file in both RPM and BIN distributions. - Your binary LICENSE/NOTICE must include everything that is included within that release. LIkewise, your RPM must include information about all dependencies within it (but not anything transitive, since those are installed separately). So if you're not providing pxf, but dependent on it, then I wouldn't include it. But if you are packaging ranger I would include that. As far as tooling goes, you could look at the maven license plugin ( http://www.mojohaus.org/license-maven-plugin/ ) as well as the maven shade plugin to generate a combined NOTICE.
