    Description

      Judging from source file headers log4j-over-slf4j and jcl-over-slf4j are licensed entirely under Apache License Version 2.0 [1] or include code under Apache License.

      According to point 4(a) of the license all works must include a full copy of the license text. If the work on which those slf4j modules were based included NOTICE files then according to point 4(d) these files must be provided too, in addition to the license text.

      Moreover, the license in pom.xml for these modules is set to "MIT License" (inherited from slf4j-parent POM). I think this should be corrected too.

      I would like to ask you to clarify licensing situation and include a copy of Apache License (along with any relevant NOTICE files, if any) in the distribution tarball.

      I am willing provide patches if needed.

      Version of slf4j: 1.7.2
