SebbASF commented on MENFORCER-157:
-----------------------------------
NOTICE is covered here:
http://www.apache.org/legal/src-headers.html#notice-required
and here
http://www.apache.org/dev/licensing-howto.html#mod-notice
Note particularly the last line of the second link:
"It is important to keep NOTICE as brief and simple as possible, as each
addition places a burden on downstream consumers. Do not add anything to NOTICE
which is not legally required."
> NOTICE file bad indentation & references software which is not actually
> included

> Key: MENFORCER-157
> URL: https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MENFORCER-157
> Project: Maven 2.x Enforcer Plugin
> Issue Type: Bug
> Reporter: SebbASF
>
> The NOTICE file says:
> {noformat}
> Apache Maven Enforcer Plugin
> Copyright 1999-2013 The Apache Software Foundation
> This product includes software developed at
> The Apache Software Foundation (http://www.apache.org/).
>
> Portions of this software utilize the Plexus Container, API, and
> Components. Copyright the Codehaus. The original software is
> available from http://plexus.codehaus.org/
> {noformat}
> The lines should all start in column 1
> The last paragraph refers to software that is not actually included in the
> source release (nor the binary release, AFAIK). The NOTICE file needs to
> relate to the actual contents of the release and must contain required
> notices only. I think it should be removed.
