Description

To reduce the overhead of maintaining the NOTICE and LICENSE files, we need to mavenize most checked-in jars. Out of the current checked-in jars, the following ones cannot be mavenized -

1. lib/sbt-launch.jar: This is required to fire up the build system of Kafka (SBT)
2. core/lib/zkclient-20110412.jar: Kafka uses a patched zkclient jar
3. contrib/hadoop-consumer/lib/piggybank.jar: This is not available through Maven
4. contrib/hadoop-consumer/lib/pig-0.8.0-core.jar: This is also not available through Maven
