Description

An explicit statement of relicensing the specs bundles (JSR311 API etc.) under ASL is needed to comply with CDDL article 3.5:

3.5. Distribution of Executable Versions.

You may distribute the Executable form of the Covered Software under the terms of this License or under the terms 
of a license of Your choice, which may contain terms different from this License, provided that You are in compliance
with the terms of this License and that the license for the Executable form does not attempt to limit or alter the
recipient's rights in the Source Code form from the rights set forth in this License. If You distribute the Covered 
Software in Executable form under a different license, You must make it absolutely clear that any terms which differ
from this License are offered by You alone, not by the Initial Developer or Contributor. You hereby agree to indemnify
the Initial Developer and every Contributor for any liability incurred by the Initial Developer or such Contributor 
as a result of any such terms You offer.

The following should be added to the top-level NOTICES.txt:

This product includes Java classes originally released under the Common 
Development and Distribution License (CDDL) and relicenced here under the
Apache Software License. These include:
  Java Activation API (javax.activation.*)
  Java Persistence API (javax.persistence.*)
  Java API for RESTful Web Services (javax.xml.rs.*)
Any additional rights under the Apache License are offered by this project
alone, and not by the Initial Developer or Contributor.
