Hi Yufei

Apache Solr NOTICE doesn't need to be included in our NOTICE: it's already
covered by "This product includes software developed at
The Apache Software Foundation (http://www.apache.org/)." (that's why we
don't include NOTICE from ASF projects by default).

The Jetty NOTICE is already included in our NOTICE: "This product bundles
Jetty with the following in its NOTICE file:"

So I don't see the problem here.

For Joda time, it's good to include it, but regarding the NOTICE (
https://github.com/JodaOrg/joda-time/blob/main/NOTICE.txt), I don't think
it's a blocker.

Regards
JB
