NOTICE says:

This product includes Eclipse Icons from
http://tech.joelbecker.net/articles/resources/5-eclipseicons - Eclipse
Public License v 1.0

However the LICENSE file does not include the EPL.

I think this is a blocker; any 3rd party inclusions must be
accompanied by their license, either in the LICENSE file or as a
separate file referenced from the LICENSE file. [The end user must be
able to find the licenses easily, not go searching through directory
trees].

Without knowing the text of the EPL, it's not possible to determine
whether there also needs to be a mention in the NOTICE file (the
LICENSE may be sufficient) It's vital that the NOTICE file only has
required elements in it; unnecessary content must be removed [1]

The binary archive contains some 3rd party libraries; these need to be
mentioned in the embedded LICENSE and perhaps the NOTICE file.

I noticed SLF4J - are there any others?

This is another blocker, IMO.

Note that the NOTICE & LICENSE files must relate to the distribution
to which they belong; generally this means that the ones in the source
archive match the ones at the top-level of SCM (i.e. git here); the
binary archive may require additional entries in LICENSE and possibly
NOTICE.

Also the word "Devlopment" appears in at least one NOTICE file as part
of the product name. Is that really the correct product name?
