Things may be missed in releases. We assume on good faith that the code being donated can be donated. When we find something that shouldn't have actual been donated it needs to be called out. At the same time, we may miss some things. In this case, I'm guessing Justin is just being cautious that there could be other things included that shouldn't have been included and needs a more coarse review. FWI, the mikuli package is Apache licensed in its origin, so it doesn't actually violate any of our rules. Listing them in NOTICE is optional but considered a best practice, since they have no NOTICE themselves. You should remove the Apache header since it shouldn't have been donated to us (unless they have signed an SGA since). For the sodium package, I can't tell if it's self built by Tuweni or something imported from elsewhere as well. Most of what I see from sodium-friends is MIT licensed, so it would not be correct to relicense it under Apache license if it was in fact imported from there (I can't find it in there though).
