Since we are only shipping jars and jars already include the licenses e.g.
in META-INF or the pom file, we could refer to them in the NOTICE file
instead of replicating them.

Hi all,
We are just preparing a new release and are wondering how and what
is required for licenses and copyrights of components shipped with an
artifact. According to the release
policy http://www.apache.org/legal/release-policy.html#distribute-other-artifacts
we need to include licenses of all components shipped in an
artifact. The example just appends all licenses to the LICENSE file
including the copyrights. Is the copyright required? Shouldn't the
copyright be appended to the NOTICE file instead?
Also we found that some artifacts have contradicting or missing
licenses e.g. in the pom of one artifact a BSD clause 2 license is
mentioned but no LICENSE files are shipped in the jars, however the
source contains a BSD clause 3 license.
Thanks,
Jonas
