   Thanks ! As you removed safe-math, the `LICENSE` doesn't have to be updated.
   
   About the code copied from LLVM, it's OK in the `LICENSE` and no need to update `NOTICE` as LLVM doesn't provide a `NOTICE`.
   
   The dependency copyright doesn't have to be in `NOTICE` (`NOTICE` is to host relevant information from dependency `NOTICE`).
   The copyright should be in `LICENSE` with the code copied (similar to https://github.com/apache/arrow-java/blob/main/LICENSE.txt#L211).
   
   On the other hand, the project copyright should be in the `NOTICE`, and we are good here:
   
   ```
   Apache Arrow Go
   Copyright 2016-2025 The Apache Software Foundation
   
   This product includes software developed at
   The Apache Software Foundation (http://www.apache.org/).
   ```
   
   So, @zeroshade you are good here ! Thanks !

   The `NOTICE.txt` file contains the line `Copyright 2016-2025 The Apache Software Foundation` and the heading of every source file has the standard Apache License which includes `See the NOTICE file distributed with this work for additional information regarding copyright ownership.` 
   
   Is that sufficient?

   Thank you!  Looks good to me, even though it does not add any copyright notices for ASF.  I was expecting something like:
   
   ```
   Copyright (C) Apache Software Foundation
   ```
   
   Is there any reason you do not want this to be in the git repo?  I don't care strongly about legal reasons here, but there is a lot of license scanners that search for 'Copyright' as a string to find licenses and authors.  It would have saved me some uncertainty when trying to figure out Debian's debian/copyright file for this package if there were more clear copyright notices pointing at the ASF.  Sometimes the exact legal name is significant too.
