Hi, I took a look at the source release and notice a couple of things from an ASF policy point of view:
1. The LICENSE file may or may not include a list of things that are bundled in the source release.The license seems to refer to 3rd party dependancies rather than what is actually included in the source release. The LICENSE file needs to list the licenses of what is bundled in the source release and not the dependancies. [1] 2. The license is missing the details of some bundled code e.g "Copyright (C) 2007 The Guava Authors" [3], "Copyright (C) 2008 The Android Open Source Project" [4], "Copyright 2005-2010 Roger Kapsi, Sam Berlin" [5] and this [7] 3. The source release contains compiled code (in the lib directory) 4. The license files mentions code under the Eclipse Public License. I assume this code is not included but is just a dependancy? (e.g. ecj-4.6.1, logback-classic-1.2.3, logback-core-1.2.3) [2] Although it does seem to be included as jars. A source release can't contain Category B code [2] 4. The NOTICE file seems to list copyright statements where it doesn't need to. [6] Only when a copyright statement has been relocated does it need to be placed in the NOTICE file. 5. These source files [8][9][10][11] are missing a header. I assume they are ASF licensed? Note it's entirely possible there some history here I'm not aware of and reason for some of the things above.
