Description

NOTICE.txt refers to .jar files and the corresponding LICENSE files in various lib/ directories, which are not included in the binary archives. Should we have a way to automatically strip these things from the source NOTICE.txt to form a release NOTICE.txt?

On the other hand, I think its confusing we don't include these jars (or at least a list of what the dependencies are) in our binary archives.

Currently a user has no way to know what any given lucene contrib depends upon, as we don't include them or even document them. See LUCENE-3009 for this bug.
