Could SPDX[1][2] be any use in handling this problem?
The state of license analysis Maven plugins is pretty awful, so writing a
new plugin to help with this is a good idea. However it'd be preferable to be
standards-based so I'd been keen to know if your Maven plugin could handle SPDX
metadata instead of making its own format?
