Description

I'm sorry I lead you into this but it seems the NOTICE files are to be kept to the bare minimum, see

http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/incubator-general/201111.mbox/%3CCALhtWkf17VkDABF4aAmXKTS5nXaQXNYBY7jDVBvh1bq%2BKzM5kg%40mail.gmail.com%3E

I suggest we move all the acknowledgements that are not explicitly required to a separate file (ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS or CREDITS or something like that). Of course we need to double check what is required and what is not.
