I think Brian disagrees with me, but my understanding of the lengthy  
conversation on legal-discuss includes concluding that svn needs  
LICENSE and NOTICE files at expected checkout roots that cover what is  
actually in svn, as opposed to what gets in the binary, javadoc, or  
source jars.  So these would get added to the source release packaging.
