Was about to suggest the same. Add them all and remove the old after some time. 
Just to get it propagated to the archives.


Btw: I've also added a LICENSE and NOTICE to our root in GIT. 

Please note that both files *are* available in the source release.

So again: txs for bringing it up, as it is important! But doesn't block the 
release again - phew ;) 


LieGrue,
