Here's a few things i found looking at the artifacts: - the comment box made from equals characters at the top of the NOTICE files is not meant to be included, i know lots of other projects do but it was just from misinterpreting an example NOTICE file. - the commons-lang-2.0.jar in apache-kato-M1-incubating-bin.zip is actually using the Apache License version 1.1. If you really need version 2.0 of commons-lang then you'd need to include AL 1.1 in the Kato LICENSE file, but there are newer releases of commons-lang using AL 2.0 you could use. - there's a few empty readme.html and README.txt files in most of the artif= acts. ...ant
