The XSD suggests (buggily) that we only want a single element (more details on this in #577). And the information contained in the <notes> section I'm removing is redundant, because the titleText contains the release date. I don't see a need to include that release date as unstrucutured information in two places, and the license title is clearly the more important location.

This is the second per-license change spun out of #566 (based on @jlovejoy's request for individual review).

This change happened in #566, so we no longer need a per-license PR.
