NOTICE attribution for derived work from CC-BY originals?

Dave and others,
remember this old thread (see below)

Taverna is revisiting this old license issue and think we've come round to a
way to avoid distributing CC-BY code, but would instead distribute our
Derived Work by hard-coding what was previosuly auto-generated Java code.

As CC-BY unlike CC-BY-SA (share-alike) then only require attribution we
then only need to keep the attribution - this would most naturally then
go into NOTICE rather than LICENSE as the CC-BY license do not apply to
the derived work (and the attribution also applies to the *.class files
in the JAR)


Obviously the wording in NOTICE then needs to be precise to not imply
that the generated *.java is CC-BY licensed (they would have the regular
Apache file header)

Would you be able to comment on if the approach in 
https://github.com/apache/incubator-taverna-language/pull/43
https://github.com/apache/incubator-taverna-language/blob/no-ontologies/NOTICE#L11
would be a good way forward?

[1] I’ll note that Stian is listed as a copyright holder for some of these … Either these need to be relicensed to a category A license or some other mechanism will need to be found to make these optional. The LICENSE file should include the other licenses and not references to them.
