IIRC, each project is required to declare the NOTICE file in the POM, so it 
will be included in the released artifact. But I can't remember the details 
of that.

Furthermore, I think it is even somewhat more complex than that since I 
suspect there will be both artifact releases (jars) which nobody looks 
inside, as well as the more conventional tar.gz and zip releases that are 
exploded and NOTICE becomes a lot more visible...

I'll make a quick check with repository@ and see if there is any input on 
that.
