> The legal wiki seems to be converging to a concensus around having LICENSE and NOTICE files at the "root" of projects in SVN (underneath "trunk").  There was a lot of discussion about this from our previous release attempt.
> There are multiple kinds of LICENSE and NOTICE files - those for our "source" distributions (which are pretty simple), and those for our binary ones (which, because these sometimes include other projects, have more complex versions - see http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/incubator/uima/sandbox/trunk/uima-as/uima-as-distr/src/main/readme for instance).
> To conform to this emerging Apache convention, put the "source" style of licenses beneath the "trunk" directory in our SVN (we have at least 2 of these - one for the main branch, and one for the sandbox.)   Also put at top level (the level containing the projects) in uima-as - there is a "collection" directory for all the uima-as projects.
