7"I glanced at the binary LICENSE and NOTICE of the binary and I think there's too much information in there.

- There is no need to repeat the Apache license text several times
- Only 3rd party software that is bundled in the source release needs to be mention in LICENSE and NOTICE. Is everything mentioned really bundled?
- NOTICE seems to contain too much information
- For long licenses it best to use a pointer the the full text of the license rather than include the full text" (JM)
