Description

Before the initial release, check that LICENSE and NOTICE contain the relevant information.

Also, license should be used to record third-party licensed works that are
included in the source distribution. The bit packing code should be in
there, rather than in notice. Notice is for required third-party notices
and isn't the file where third-party licensing information should be
accumulated.
