> It would be nice to automatically generate the NOTICE file for the binary distribution based on the dependencies included in the lib directory and in the war files.  This will take the manual labor out of creating the NOTICE file correctly when dependencies are added, removed, or changed (incl transitive deps).
> The binary NOTICE file should be based on the source NOTICE file.
> The maven shade plugin does something like this:
> https://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-shade-plugin/examples/resource-transformers.html#ApacheNoticeResourceTransformer
> There is also a gradle shadow plugin:
> https://github.com/johnrengelman/shadow
> However it appears to have some bugs that cause it to skip some NOTICE files (needs further investigation).
