Description

The long review of https://github.com/apache/daffodil-vscode/pull/51 has made is clear that too few of the daffodil devs have thorough knowledge of the requirements for the license and notices files, the kinds of things needed in convenience binaries, vs. in source releases, requirements for other common open-source licenses (e.g., EPL), etc. 

A wiki page which is a checklist (maybe) with supporting sections and links to the appropriate ASF pages about these things would be needed in case slawrence ever goes on vacation
