           Summary: Text of Apache License is not included
           Product: SLF4J
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: blocker
          Priority: P1
         Component: Unspecified
        AssignedTo: slf4j-dev at qos.ch
        ReportedBy: mizdebsk at redhat.com


Judging from source file headers log4j-over-slf4j and jcl-over-slf4j are
licensed entirely under Apache License Version 2.0 [1] or include code under
Apache License.

According to point 4(a) of the license all works must include a full copy of
the license text. If the work on which those slf4j modules were based included
NOTICE files then according to point 4(d) these files must be provided too, in
addition to the license text.

Moreover, the license in pom.xml for these modules is set to "MIT License"
(inherited from slf4j-parent POM). I think this should be corrected too.

I would like to ask you to clarify licensing situation and include a copy of
Apache License (along with any relevant NOTICE files, if any) in the
distribution tarball.

I am willing provide patches if needed.

Version of slf4j: 1.7.2
