Additional licenses should be appended to the main LICENSE file, not provided 
separately. Some projects still do that, but the general rule/guideline now is 
only to provide a single LICENSE file.

See also my previous reply on the question from Matt.

Do we need to include license files (LICENSE I guess) for some
dependency jars?  I mean for some dependency jars, they may require
that license file should be distributed along with jars.

Not all dependencies (no need to do so for ASF based dependencies), but 
other/external dependencies might require their LICENSE and NOTICE information 
to be attributed.

A good example might be Wink (incubator) and Wookie:

 
http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator/wink/tags/wink-1.1.3-incubating/wink-assembly/apache-wink/binarydist/LICENSE 

 
http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator/wink/tags/wink-1.1.3-incubating/wink-assembly/apache-wink/binarydist/NOTICE

   http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator/wookie/branches/0.9.x/LICENSE
   http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator/wookie/branches/0.9.x/NOTICE

Note that the Wookie LICENSE file also lists all ASF based dependencies which 
AFAIK isn't a requirement (but nothing wrong with either).

What other items do we need to list in the files?  Do we need to add items
for all of our dependencies that are bundled with the wars?
