> The following comment indicates what we need to do.
> The NOTICE file is still incorrect and includes a lot of unnecessary
> stuff. Understanding how to do releases with the correct legal files
> is one of the important parts of incubation and as this is the first
> release for the poddling i think this needs to be sorted out.
> For the NOTICE file, start with the following text (between the ---'s):
> ---
> Apache ManifestCF
> Copyright 2010 The Apache Software Foundation
> This product includes software developed by
> The Apache Software Foundation (http://www.apache.org/).
> ---
> and then add _nothing_ unless you can find explicit policy documented
> somewhere in the ASF that says it is required. If someone wants to add
> something ask for the URL where the requirement is documented. The
> NOTICE file should only include required notices, the other text thats
> in the current NOTICE file could go in a README file, see
> http://www.apache.org/legal/src-headers.html#notice
> For the LICENSE file, it should start with the AL as the current one
> does, and then include the text for all the other licenses used in the
> distribution. Those license that are currently in the NOTICE file
> should be moved to the LICENSE file and then you need to verify that
> all the 3rd party dependencies in the src and binary distributions are
> also in the LICENSE files of those distributions.
