9"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)

./ide/modules/ext/commons-compress-1.8.1.jar

- thesis where the bulk of you NOTICE info come from and why I thought something was up. Again

it’s an upstream issue just about all of this information should be in LICENSE not NOTICE,

but as the upstream project NOTICE file has this issue including it all is valid.
