For JAI, note that the maven distribution is just the pom, with an url that

I did notice this on ibiblio when I went to actually implement the target in fetch.xml, but I also found the full jar file in the JBoss public maven repository so I've used that. I may change over to an FTP version once I do NetRexx, since it seems a little presumptious to just start using Red Hat's resources on non-Red Hat projects.

For NetREXX, there is :

4. make copies of the original file you downloaded and distribute
           it, provided that you transfer a copy of this license to the
           other party. The other party agrees to these terms by its
           first use of the Program.

You only have to worry about that if you are distributing the file. We are not. We are providing a convenience script so that users can download it for themselves.

I guess I could make the fetch.xml copy the license file out of the downloaded ZIP and put it somewhere, just as a courtesy. Where should it go? Wherever the JAR file gets copied to? The ANT_HOME directory with the NOTICE file?

There is also :

You are responsible for the payment of any taxes resulting from
        this license.


I'm not sure if the You would be the end user or the ASF.


Again, nothing to do with the ASF because the user is going directly to IBM to get the software. If you like, I can add to the manual a note that when using fetch.xml the user is responsible for following all the terms of the licenses the software is distributed under.
