----------------------------------

             Summary: NOTICE file in Distribution is too broad
                 Key: CXF-7108
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CXF-7108
             Project: CXF
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Build system
            Reporter: John D. Ament


The NOTICE file that gets included in the distribution is too broad, or at 
least doesn't make it clear that this is only for the full distribution: 
https://github.com/apache/cxf/blob/master/distribution/src/main/appended-resources/META-INF/NOTICE

In my case, using CXF I bring in a subset of your JARs

cxf-rt-transports-http-3.1.7.jar
{code}

However, external interpretation is that your NOTICE file requires all of this 
extra content - when not all of it applies in this case.
