    Description

      The LICENSE and NOTICE for the binary files also look incorrect give the number of jars and lack of information in LICENSE / NOTICE. This will need to be fixed at some point before graduation. See [1] for more info. The LICENSE/NOTICE files should be different for the binaries and reflect their contents.

      I've not looked at the the binaries in detail but from a quick look / picking a few jar at random I see:

      • jsch-0.1.50.jar is BSD so that would need to be added to binary LICENSE.
      • docker-1.9.0.jar if it;s docker then, while docker is Apache licensed it has a NOTICE file [2], so that would need to be added to the binary NOTICE file.
      • avax.servlet-api-3.0.1.jar may be problematic as it is CDDL + GPLv2. If this is an optional dependancy if may need to be downloaded separately.

      The best guidance can be found at [3]. Keep in mind the guiding principal [4] and it's mostly straight forward.
