> Move acknowledgements from NOTICE to README
> -------------------------------------------
>
> Key: COMPRESS-72
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COMPRESS-72
> Project: Commons Compress
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Affects Versions: 1.0
> Reporter: Jukka Zitting
> Priority: Minor
> Fix For: 1.1
>
>
> The NOTICE.txt file in commons-compress contains the following entries:
> {noformat}
> Original BZip2 classes contributed by Keiron Liddle
> <ke...@aftexsw.com>, Aftex Software to the Apache Ant project
> Original Tar classes from contributors of the Apache Ant project
> Original Zip classes from contributors of the Apache Ant project
> Original CPIO classes contributed by Markus Kuss and the jRPM project
> (jrpm.sourceforge.net)
> {noformat}
> It's good that we acknowledge contributions, but having those entries in the NOTICE file is not appropriate unless the licensing of the original contributions explicitly required such attribution notices.
> I suggest that we move these entries to a README.txt file.
