Likitha,

I've added it to the legal docs in master, but I need you to follow up
on something.

There is confusion about which license is applicable for this software.
On their google code site, it's linked to the BSD 3-Clause license.  On their 
project site [3], the license is only noted as being BSD (with a link to
the wikipedia entry, which for the record, explains the different types).  
In their pom [2], the license is listed as the 2-Clause style.

I believe that we should use the one noted in the POM, since that's what
gets pulled into the build machine and packaged.  However, can you
please ask the developers which is accurate?
